  2. 1. Mathematical models of biological interactions

    Author : Linnéa Gyllingberg; David J.T. Sumpter; Kolbjörn Tunström; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mathematics with specialization in Applied Mathematics; Matematik med inriktning mot tillämpad matematik;

    Abstract : Mathematical models are used to describe and analyse different types of biological interactions.  From self-propelled particle models capturing the collective motion of fish schools to models in mathematical neuroscience describing the interactions between neurons to individual-based models of ecological interactions.

  4. 2. Gaussian structures and orthogonal polynomials

    Author : Lars Larsson-Cohn; Kurt Johansson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mathematics; Meyer inequality; orthogonal polynomials; Lp-norms; information entropy; finite difference equations; central limit theorem; interpolation theory; Besov spaces; MATEMATIK; MATHEMATICS; MATEMATIK; Mathematics; Matematik;

    Abstract : This thesis consists of four papers on the following topics in analysis and probability: analysis on Wiener space, asymptotic properties of orthogonal polynomials, and convergence rates in the central limit theorem. The first paper gives lower bounds on the constants in the Meyer inequality from the Malliavin calculus. READ MORE

  5. 3. Random tournaments and random circuits

    Author : Pontus Andersson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mathematics; Poisson-Dirichlet distribution; random circuit decomposition; random tournament; subgraph count; MATEMATIK; MATHEMATICS; MATEMATIK; matematik; Mathematics;

    Abstract : This thesis is devoted to two different topics in the area of probabilistic combinatorics: asymptotic behaviour of subgraph counts in a random tournament and random circuit decompositions of complete graphs.Let Tn be a random tournament on n vertices, chosen uniformly from all 2(n2) such tournaments, and let D be an arbitrary directed graph.

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis is to model and describe dynamical events for biological cells using statistical and mathematical tools. The thesis includes five papers that all relate to stochastic modelling of cells. READ MORE

  7. 5. On Aspects of Mathematical Reasoning : Affect and Gender

    Author : Lovisa Sumpter; Johan Lithner; Markku Hannula; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; affect; beliefs; gender; mathematical reasoning; problem solving; upper secondary school; Other mathematics; Övrig matematik; matematikdidaktik; didactics of mathematics;

    Abstract : This thesis explores two aspects of mathematical reasoning: affect and gender. I started by looking at the reasoning of upper secondary students when solving tasks. READ MORE
