  2. 1. Nontypical Behaviour of Orbits and Birkhoff Averages for Expanding Maps

    Author : David Färm; Matematik LTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; expanding maps; beta-shifts; large intersection classes; Hausdorff dimension;

    Abstract : This thesis consists of an introductory chapter followed by five papers. In the first paper, expanding maps on the unit interval are considered. The set of points for which the forward orbit is bounded away from a given point is studied. It is shown that this set has full Hausdorff dimension and that it has large intersection properties.

  4. 2. Conformal Maps, Bergman Spaces, and Random Growth Models

    Author : Alan Sola; Haakan Hedenmalm; Robert Berman; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Conformal maps; Bergman kernels; planar growth models; MATHEMATICS; MATEMATIK;

    Abstract : This thesis consists of an introduction and five research papers on topics related to conformal mapping, the Loewner equation and its applications, and Bergman-type spaces of holomorphic functions. The first two papers are devoted to the study of integral means of derivatives of conformal mappings. READ MORE

  5. 3. Computational Models in Deep Brain Stimulation : Patient‐Specific Simulations, Tractography, and Group Analysis

    Author : Teresa Nordin; Karin Wårdell; Simone Hemm-Ode; Johannes D. Johansson; Harith Akram; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Anisotropy; Deep brain stimulation DBS ; Finite element method FEM ; Patient‐specific simulation; Probabilistic stimulation maps PSM ; Tractography;

    Abstract : Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an established method for symptom relief in movement disorders like Parkinson’s disease, essential tremor (ET), and dystonia. The therapy is based on implanting an electrode with four contacts in the deep brain structures where it provides electrical stimulation, mainly impacting the nerve tracts. READ MORE

  6. 4. Dynamics of Smooth Hyperbolic Systems with Singularities

    Author : Tomas Persson; Dynamiska system; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Matematik; Mathematics; Dimension Theory; Hyperbolic Dynamics; Subshift; SRB-measure;

    Abstract : This thesis is about dynamics of piecewise hyperbolic maps on bounded sets in the plane and on the interval. It is based on the following papers: T. Persson, A piecewise hyperbolic map with absolutely continuous invariant measure, Dynamical Systems: An International Journal, 21:3 (2006), 363--378 T. READ MORE

  7. 5. Understanding quality improvement in care: The case of public care procurement and process mining

    Author : Sara Dahlin; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; cancer care; methodology; process mining; Quality improvement; elderly care; care pathways; public care procurement; context;

    Abstract : Healthcare is facing challenges of increased cost and complexity originating from factors such as new technology and diversified treatments, increased life expectancy, an ageing population, and multi-comorbidity, making the need for Quality Improvement (QI) in care highly relevant. This is, however, easier said than done, considering that healthcare is complex, dynamic, ad-hoc, and multidisciplinary. READ MORE
