1. 1. Percolation: Inference and Applications in Hydrology

   Författare :Oscar Hammar; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; percolation; inference; consistency; Markov chain Monte Carlo; hydrology; consistency;

   Sammanfattning : Percolation theory is a branch of probability theory describing connectedness in a stochastic network. The connectedness of a percolation process is governed by a few, typically one or two, parameters. LÄS MER

3. 2. Recursive Methods in Urn Models and First-Passage Percolation

   Författare :Henrik Renlund; Sven Erick Alm; Svante Janson; John Wierman; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; stochastic approximation algorithm; generalized Polya urn; limit theorem; first-passage percolation; rate of percolation; time constant; Mathematical statistics; Matematisk statistik; Mathematical Statistics; Matematisk statistik;

   Sammanfattning : This PhD thesis consists of a summary and four papers which deal with stochastic approximation algorithms and first-passage percolation. Paper I deals with the a.s. limiting properties of bounded stochastic approximation algorithms in relation to the equilibrium points of the drift function. LÄS MER

4. 3. On the Structure and Dynamics of Polyelectrolyte Gel Systems and Gel-surfactant Complexes

   Författare :Per Johan Råsmark; Christer Elvingson; Johan Bergenholtz; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physical chemistry; polyelectrolyte gel; microgel; dynamic light scattering; Raman spectroscopy; periodic boundary conditions; percolation; hypersphere; Monte Carlo; Brownian dynamics; Fysikalisk kemi; Physical chemistry; Fysikalisk kemi;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis describes the results of experimental work on polyelectrolyte gels and their interaction with oppositely charged surfactants, and presents two new algorithms applicable to the simulation of colloid and polymer systems.The model systems investigated were crosslinked poly(acrylate) (PA) and poly(styrene sulphonate) (PSS), and the surfactant was dodecyl trimethylammonium bromide (DoTAB).

5. 4. On the Size and Shape of Polymers and Polymer Complexes : A Computational and Light Scattering Study

   Författare :Tomas Edvinsson; Terence Cosgrove; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physics; Monte Carlo simulations; grafted polymers; shape description; folding complexity; clustering; percolation algorithm; light scattering; end-capped polymers; inclusion complexes; Fysik; Physics; Fysik; Physical Chemistry; Fysikalisk kemi;

   Sammanfattning : Detailed characterization of size and shape of polymers, and development of methods to elucidate the mechanisms behind shape transitions are central issues in this thesis. In particular we characterize grafted polymer chains under confinement in terms of the chain entanglement complexity and mean molecular size. LÄS MER

7. 5. On perfect simulation and EM estimation

   Författare :Kajsa Larson; Sara Sjöstedt de Luna; Mats Rudemo; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Perfect simulation; coupling from the past; Markov chain Monte Carlo; point process; Widom-Rowlinson model; EM algorithm; dispersal distribution; fecundity; first-passage percolation; Mathematical statistics; Matematisk statistik; Mathematical Statistics; matematisk statistik;

   Sammanfattning : Perfect simulation  and the EM algorithm are the main topics in this thesis. In paper I, we present coupling from the past (CFTP) algorithms that generate perfectly distributed samples from the multi-type Widom--Rowlin-son (W--R) model and some generalizations of it. LÄS MER
