- Abstract:
According to Robert John Russell, one of the foremost scholars on relating Christian theology and science, the topic of “time and eternity” is central to the relation between God and the world in two ways. First, it involves the notion of the divine eternity as the supratemporal source of creaturely time. Second, it involves the eternity of the eschatological New Creation beginning with the bodily Resurrection of Jesus in relation to creaturely time. The key to Russell’s engagem…

- Abstract:
In 1845 Bertrand postulated that there is always a prime between $n$ and $2n$, and he verified this for $n < 3,000,000$. Tchebychev gave an analytic proof of the postulate in 1850. In 1932, in his first paper, Erdos gave a beautiful elementary proof using nothing more than a few easily verified facts about the middle binomial coefficient. We describe Erdos’s proof and make a few additional comments, including a discussion of how the two main lemmas used in the proof very quickly give a…

- Author(s):
- mcharnle
- Description:
- This thesis has two parts. The first discusses the Laplacian and how to solve it in arbitrary domains. It will cover Dirichlet's Principle, the Fundamental Solution, and Green's Function, as well as examples on the half space and ball. The second will cover the inverse problem of detecting corrosion in a plate of metal using heat. It will discuss the general solution method, regularization of the solution, and analyze the results.

Senior Thesis
- Author(s):
- smeehan1
- Description:
- Ramsey theory studies conditions that are necessary so that we may preserve "order." Often, we will start with a large structure, and we will break it into finitely many classes. Our typical theorems will say that if the initial structure is large enough, then one of the classes must contain a copy of the original structure. Usually, we will find the smallest number of elements required so that this property is guaranteed to occur; this is often a difficult, but illuminating, problem.

Senior Thesis
- Author(s):
- Katherine Ritchey
- Description:
- When digital data is transmitted through an unreliable communication channel, it is often the case that errors can occur, causing the information received to differ from what was originally sent. Fortunately, there are ways to encode data so that errors can be detected and even corrected. This expository thesis focuses on a special class of codes, called linear codes, that have particularly nice properties that are useful for error detection and correction.
