Dehn Functions of the Stallings-Bieri Groups and Constructions of Non-Unique Product Groups
(2015-05-08)
This thesis will consist of two separate halves in which we will present results concerning two different families of finitely generated torsion-free groups. The themes of each half are quite different and are related to ...
An Exploration of the Transition to Graduate School in Mathematics
(2011)
This purpose of this research was to explore the transition to graduate school in mathematics--the struggles students face, the expectations they must meet, and the strategies they use to deal with this new chapter in their ...
The representations of p-adic fields associated to elliptic curves
(2015)
The goal of this dissertation is to find the irreducible, admissible representation
of GL(2; F) attached to an elliptic curve E over a p-adic field F. Associated
to E is a 2-dimensional complex representation of the ...
