Poletsky-Stessin Hardy Spaces on the Unit Disk
… boundary values) led to the appearance of Hardy spaces $H^p(\mathbb{D})$, $p\ge1$. If a function lies in a Hardy space then its boundary values can be defined and its values on $\mathbb{D}$ can be obtained using standard Cauchy or Poisson formulas.</p> <p> The theory of Hardy spaces …

Microscopy and Modernist Fiction from Hardy to Beckett
This thesis explores how four writers – D. H. Lawrence, Marcel Proust, Virginia Woolf, and Samuel Beckett – registered shock experiences of the microscopic in prose fiction. Focusing on microscopes and the unfamiliar microworlds they reveal, I illustrate ways in which optical instruments had the …

Hardy-space Function Theory on Finitely Connected Planar Domains
Hardy space scalar theory on the disk is now classical. Some extensions have been done, one of them is the approach done by Donald Sarason using Laurent series. We present the more complicated function theory, without the use of either power series or Laurent series, for finitely-connected planar …

Blaschke Decompositions on Weighted Hardy Spaces and the Unwinding Series
… the study of Blaschke decompositions on weighted Hardy spaces was initiated by Coifman and Steinerberger, under the assumption that the complex valued function F has an analytic extension to D_1+ε for some ε > 0. This provided bounds on weighted Hardy norms involving a single zero, α ∈ D, of F and …

Exploring the chemical properties of polyphenols in cold-hardy grape cultivars
Cold-hardy interspecific grape cultivars, such as cv. ‘Marquette’ and ‘Frontenac’, are the crossbreeding of several Vitis species, including the native North American Vitis riparia and Vitis labrusca, and the traditional European Vitis vinifera. These grape cultivars are bred to withstand the harsh …
