In this work we will construct the table of irreducible characters for the group of unitary 2 x 2 matrices over a finite field. The table and the methods for its construction will show interesting connections to the table and methods of construction of the table of irreducible characters for the...

The Indiana Bat (Myotis sodalis) population had decreased by 56% between 1967 and 2006. In summer 2006, a mysterious disease called “White Nose Syndrome” was first identified. Since then, the disease killed almost one million bats in North America. Many Biologists believe that both the...

In this thesis we address several questions around mirror symmetry for Fano manifolds and Calabi-Yau varieties. Fano mirror symmetry is a relationship between a Fano manifold X and a pair (Y,w) called a Landau-Ginzburg model, which consists of a manifold Y and a regular function w on Y. The goal...

This thesis focuses on characterizing the optimal consumption and investment strategy for an investor, in a simple financial market, when his consumption habit is considered in the utility formulation. We consider a continuous-time market model for which we maximize the overall utility within an...

BACKGROUND: Despite the overall decline in tuberculosis (TB) incidence in Canada, rates among Indigenous peoples have not decreased since the late 1990s. On-going transmission associated with the time from the onset of symptoms to treatment have been identified as major contributor to the...

The affine vertex superalgebra A=L^1(D(2,1;-v/w)) plays a key role as the geometric Langlands kernel VOA for SVOAs associated to so(3), osp(1|2) and other rank one Lie superalgbras. Since D(2,1;a) is an extension of the direct sum of 3 copies of sl(2), A can be naturally realized as an...

For matched-pair data with a multinomial reponse, the Stuart-Maxwell test (1955, 1970) and the Bhapkar test (1966) are commonly used to test the marginal homogeneity. However, in medical research, many studies for assess- ing safety consider multiple multinomial endpoints to detect the treatment...
