Galois Deformation Ring and Barsotti-Tate Representations in the Relative Case
(2016-05-13)In this thesis, we study finite locally free group schemes, Galois deformation rings, and Barsotti-Tate representations in the relative case. We show three independent but related results, assuming p > 2. First, we give ... -
Galois representations and Lubin-Tate groups
(Universität Bielefeld, Fakultät für Mathematik, 2009)Using Lubin-Tate groups, we develop a variant of Fontaine's theory of $(\varphi, \Gamma)$-modules, and we use it to give a description of the Galois stable lattices inside certain crystalline representations. -

Game, Site, Match: Topics in Causal Inference and Sports Statistics
(2023-05-12)This thesis presents three self-contained chapters: a dynamic linear model for rating athletes using their game scores (Game), new perspectives power analysis for multisite trials (Site), and a synthetic matching method ... -
Game-based entrepreneurship education: impact on attitudes, behaviours and intentions

A Game-Theoretic Analysis of Games with a Purpose
(Springer-Verlag, 2008)We present a simple game-theoretic model for the ESP game, an interactive game devised to label images on the web, and characterize the equilibrium behavior of the model. We show that a simple change in the incentive ... -
A game-theoretic analysis of the ESP game
(Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), 2013)“Games with a Purpose” are interactive games that users play because they are fun, with the added benefit that the outcome of play is useful work. The ESP game, developed by [von Ahn and Dabbish 2004], is an example of such ... -
Games and Decision Under Uncertainty
(2016-05-12)This dissertation presents three independent essays in microeconomic theory. Chapter 1 (co-authored with Akitada Kasahara) studies the implications of gradual adjustment in strategic interactions, relative to the one-shot ... -
Games in Tetrads: Segregation, Recombination, and Meiotic Drive
(University of Chicago Press, 2010)The two alleles at a heterozygous locus segregate during meiosis, sometimes at meiosis I and sometimes at meiosis II. The timing of segregation is determined by the pattern of crossing‐over between a locus and its attached ... -
Gaming Dynamic Parimutuel Markets
(Springer-Verlag, 2009)We study the strategic behavior of risk-neutral non-myopic agents in Dynamic Parimutuel Markets (DPM). In a DPM, agents buy or sell shares of contracts, whose future payff in a particular state depends on aggregated trades ... -
Gaming Prediction Markets: Equilibrium Strategies with a Market Maker
(Springer-Verlag, 2009)We study the equilibrium behavior of informed traders interacting with market scoring rule (MSR) market makers. One attractive feature of MSR is that it is myopically incentive compatible: it is optimal for traders to ... -
Gamma Rays from Intergalactic Shocks
(American Astronomical Society, 2003)Structure formation in the intergalactic medium (IGM) produces large-scale, collisionless shock waves, in which electrons can be accelerated to highly relativistic energies. Such electrons can Compton-scatter cosmic microwave ... -
GaN/InGaN Microcavities and Applications
(2015-05-12)Semiconductor micro- and nano-cavities are excellent platforms for experimental studies of optical cavities, lasing dynamics, and cavity Quantum Electrodynamics (QED). Common materials for such experiments are narrow bandgap ... -
Gandhāra and the Formation of the Vedic and Zoroastrian Canons
(Biblioteca Bucureştilor, 2011)After several hundred years of text composition and accumulation, from the RV down to the Upaniṣads and the oldest Sūtras, the actual process of canonization remains unclear, just as the time and place where this took place ... -

Gap Analysis and the Geographical Distribution of Parasites
(Oxford University Press, 2010)Sampling biases can have enormous impacts on studies of parasite biogeography. While complete sampling is sometimes possible for local or regional patterns of parasitism, continental and global analyses often rely on data ... -
Gap-mode Plasmonic Nanocavity
(American Institute of Physics, 2010)Here we describe the fabrication and characterization of a plasmonic nanocavity formed in the narrow gap between a Ag nanowire and a flat Ag substrate. The fluorescence spectrum of nanocrystals within the gap was strongly ... -
Gapped Alignment of Protein Sequence Motifs through Monte Carlo Optimization of a Hidden Markov Model
(BioMed Central, 2004)Background: Certain protein families are highly conserved across distantly related organisms and belong to large and functionally diverse superfamilies. The patterns of conservation present in these protein sequences ... -
Gaps in \(\sqrt{n}mod 1\) and Ergodic Theory
(Duke University Press, 2004)Cut the unit circle \(S^1 = \mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z}\) at the points \(\{\sqrt{1}\}, \{\sqrt{2}\}, . . ., \{\sqrt{N}\}\), where \(\{x\} = x mod 1\), and let \(J_1, . . . , J_N\) denote the complementary intervals, or gaps, ... -
García Lorca y el teatro convencional
(Walter de Gruyter GmbH, 1983)Puede decirse-que la obra dramätica de Garcia Lorca supuso en su momento im desafio a los perfiles fijos y defmitivos del teatro convencional. Benavente y los Quintero encabezaban la lista de autores responsables de esa ...
