Incidence Problems for Slabs
In this thesis, I prove incidence estimates for slabs which are formed by intersecting small neighborhoods of well-spaced hyperplanes in R superscript 𝑑 with the unit cube [0, 1] superscript 𝑑 . My work is an analogue of a theorem of Guth, Solomon, and Wang, who proved a version of the …

The population incidence of cancer
… thesis is the general observation that cancer incidence grows in approximate proportion to an integer power of age. Quasi-mechanistic mathematical models of cancer incidence have suggested that the integer power in a given case is related to the number of crucial cellular events that must occur …

Group automorphisms of incidence algebras.
… an arbitrary partially ordered set and I(P) its incidence space. Then FI(P) denotes the associated finitary incidence algebra, where FI(P) = I(P) for locally finite posets (P,≤). We investigate the group of units U(FI(P)) of incidence algebras and its normal subgroups. This includes the structure …

Geographical Incidence of Antimicrobial Resistant Gonorrhea
… Continued work researching geographic incidence similarities and correlations between geographical location, population demographics, and spread of resistance over time, may allow further insight into more evasive ways to manage prevention efforts against resistance.</p>

Incidence homology for the hyperoctahedral group
The incidence structure of the cross-polytope gives rise to certain modular representations for the hyperoctahedral group. In this thesis we introduce and begin the study of these natural representations. In particular we show that they satisfy a branching rule. This branching rule is used to …

Edge search in graphs using incidence tests
In this work we consider the $(2,n)$ group testing problem with test sets of cardinality at most $p$. We present sharp upper and lower bounds for the worst case number $c_p(2,n)$ of tests for this group testing problem and show that the maximum difference between the upper and lower bounds is 3. …

PROGRESS IN CANCER INCIDENCE, MORTALITY, AND SURVIVAL
… and substantial differences in mortality, incidence, and survival worldwide. Using the World Health Organization (WHO) database I worked on the trends and projections analysis of mortality from various cancer sites. I computed age-specific rates for each 5-year age group, calendar year, and …

Incidence of musculoskeletal injuries in professional dancers
… Aim: The aim of this study was to determine the incidence of musculoskeletal injuries and their associated risk factors over a three-month period in adult female professional ballet dancers in South Africa. Specific Objectives: The specific objectives of this study were: • To determine the …

Accuracy bounds for normal-incidence acoustic structure estimation
… of the structure of a medium from normal-incidence acoustic reflection data is a basic problem in fields as diverse as medical technology and the earth sciences; this research examines the accuracy with which quantitative structure estimates can be made from noise-corrupted measurements of …

Incidence of musculoskeletal problems among instrumental music students
The incidence of musculoskeletal problems amongst instrumental music students in Australia is unknown. This study examined students who play musical instruments and are potentially at risk of developing problems, including pain and injury, related to their play activities. Full-time instrument …
