Q-systems and generalizations in representation theory
… identity, one can see that they satisfy a $Q$-system. Since $Q$-systems are of interest in many areas of mathematics, it is interesting to study tau-functions and the discrete equations they satisfy for the $n>2$ cases. We generalize this work by studying tau-functions equal to matrix elements …

Cluster algebras and discrete integrable systems
… between cluster algebras and discrete integrable systems, especially T-systems and their specializations/generalizations. We give connections between the T-system or the octahedron relation, and the pentagram map and its various generalizations. A solution to the T-system with quasi-periodic …

Factors affecting the excitability of skinned fibres of the rat
… rat mechanically skinned fibre preparations to T-system depolarization, a functional parameter of E-C coupling referred to, sometimes, as skinned fibre excitability. More specifically, the work presented in this thesis is concerned with the relationship between rat skinned fibre excitability and …

Factors Affecting Hydraulic Conductivity of High pH, High Silica Groundwater at the Former Occidental Chemical Corporation Facility
… (OCC) Facility. A pump-and-treat (P&T) system is in operation, yet the extraction of contaminated groundwater with elevated pH is being avoided because doing so has previously fouled well screens. This study used batch and column tests to identify factors that affect hydraulic …

Effects of suprathermal fusion particles in tokamak plasmas
… alpha particles losses for a corresponding D-T system may yield measurable results under certain conditions. Toroidal rotation generated in a TFTR-like tokamak is most likely to be undetectable for deuterium-injection into a 3He thermal background."
