Model Theory of Nakano Spaces
… to be axiomatizable in continuous logic for metric structures. The theory of atomless Nakano spaces equipped with a modular having a fixed compact essential range is shown to admit quantifier elimination. It is also shown that if this essential range is moreover bounded away from 1, the …

Model theory and probability
… theory of probability algebras, random variable structures, and adapted structures, with an emphasis on their atomless counterparts. In this thesis, the author uses a continuous version of first order logic that has been developed recently and that is better suited for applications to metric …

Metric Schemas and Projections in Three Colombian Folk Genres
… explores how stylistic expertise can affect metric perception, through the analysis of three Colombian folk genres—cantos de boga and currulaos from the Pacific region and joropos from the Eastern plains bordering Venezuela. Specifically, it considers the tension between metric perceptions …

Quantum Metrics on Approximately Finite-Dimensional Algebras
… (AF) algebras into the realm of noncommutative metric geometry. We construct quantum metric structures on unital AF algebras equipped with a faithful tracial state, and prove that for such metrics, AF algebras are limits of their defining inductive sequences of finite dimensional C*-algebras for …

The Musicality of Salsa Dancers: An Ethnographic Study
… entrainment, structural feeling of hypermetric conventions, and enactment of expressive microtiming within beat and metric structures. I introduce the concept of timespace to explain how dancers manipulate this physiological experience to create different feelings in a dance, addressing …

Unpopular Meters: Irregular Grooves and Drumbeats in the Songs of Tori Amos, Radiohead, and Tool
… the drumbeat’s role in articulating irregular metric structures in rock music from the past three decades. Having analyzed a corpus of 240 songs, I theorize several distinct categories of metric irregularity; establish drumbeat conventions in the most common irregular grooves; explore …
