Jordan systems, bounded symmetric domains and associated group orbits with holomorphic and CR extension theory
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Mathematics, 2006)The first chapter will deal with the one to one correspondence between the positive hermitian Jordan triple systems and the bounded symmetric domains. We start by defining the various Jordan systems. Then we continue by ... -
Konishi operator at intermediate coupling.
(2011)TBA equations for two-particle states from the sl(2) sector proposed by Arutyunov, Suzuki and the author are solved numerically for the Konishi operator descendent up to 't Hooft's coupling 2046. The data obtained ... -
Krylov subspaces from bilinear representations of nonlinear systems
(Emerald, 2007)For efficient simulation of state-of-the-art dynamical systems as arise in all aspects of engineering, the development of reduced-order models is of paramount importance. While linear reduction techniques have received ... -
Large scale parallel network simulation
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Mathematics, 2004)Simulation is one of the primary tools used in studying computer networks. However the difficulties of simulating a network grow with its size. With the hardware resources currently available it is not feasible to simulate ... -
Lattice determinations of the strange quark mass
(University of Chicago, 1999)The importance of the strange quark mass, as a fundamental parameter of the Standard Model (SM) and as an input to many interesting quantities, has been highlighted in many reviews, eg in Ref . A first principles calculation ... -
Lattice QCD calculation of anti-B --> D lepton anti-neutrino decay form-factors at zero recoil
(2008-10-09)A lattice QCD calculation of the B? ?Dl?? decay form factors is presented. We obtain the value of the form factor h+(w) at the zero-recoil limit w=1 with high precision by considering a ratio of correlation functions in ... -
Lax pair for strings in Lunin-Maldacena background.
(2005)Recently Lunin andMaldacena used an SL(3,R) transformation of the AdS5?S5 background to generate a supergravity solution dual to a so-called -deformation of N = 4 super Yang-Mills theory. We use a T-duality-shift-T-duality ... -
Logarithmic asymptotics in Queueing Theory and Risk Theory
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Mathematics, 2000)This thesis addresses four distinct, but related, problems. All four involve large deviation theory. The first problem is to relate the logarithmic asymptotics of the single server queue length distribution to the long ... -
Logarithmic corrections to higher twist scaling at strong coupling from AdS/CFT.
(Elsevier, 2007)We compute 1-loop correction E1 to the energy of folded string in AdS5?S5 (carrying spin S in AdS5 and momentum J in S5) using a ?long string? approximation in which Smuch greater-thanJmuch greater-than1. According to the ... -
Matrix models, quantum gravity and the spectral dimension
(Proceedings of Science, 2005)Monte Carlo studies on non-perturbative 2D Euclidean Quantum Gravity can be done with the use of the Dynamical Triangulations method. The Monte Carlo moves defined within the dynamical triangulation method can be encompassed ... -
Measuring the aspect ratio renormalization of anisotropic-lattice gluons
(American Physical Society, 2001)Using tadpole-improved actions we investigate the consistency between different methods of measuring the aspect ratio renormalization of anisotropic-lattice gluons for bare aspect ratios x054,6,10 and inverse lattice spacing ... -
Methods for calculating option prices with early-exercise features
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Mathematics, 2006)In this dissertation we deal with two distinct methods for pricing financial options with early-exercise features. First we use finite difference methods to calculate the prices, examining in particular two new schemes ...
