Open maps and maps onto two-manifolds
<p>our primary interest in this thesis is in open maps.We begin by examining open simple (at most two to one) maps and consider when a map may be factored into open simple ones. It is determined that the orbit map of a periodic homeomorphism of period 2k has this property. Similar results are …

Biharmonic maps
… energy to regularize the Dirichlet energy for maps from a Riemannian surface into a round sphere. Finally we prove the so called energy identity for this regularization.

Plantable Maps
This thesis explores the creation of Plantable Maps, which seek to present geographic information in a way that is conscious of its ties to its local environment. I created biodegradable and compostable maps using plant-based materials that visualize the spatial history of "blight" in San …

Deformation retractions from spaces of continuous maps onto spaces of holomorphic maps
… possible to simultaneously deform all continuous maps f from X to Y to holomorphic maps, in a way that depends continuously on f and does not change f if f is holomorphic to begin with. In other words, is 𝒪(X, Y ) a deformation retract of 𝒞 (X, Y )? Larusson provided a partial answer to this …

Real-Time Panorama Maps
Panorama maps are stylized paintings of terrain often seen at tourist destinations. They are difficult to create since they are both artistic and grounded in real geographic data. In this paper we present techniques for rendering real-world data in the style of Heinrich Berann's panorama maps in a …

Transchromatic generalized character maps
"In ""Generalized Group Characters and Complex Oriented Cohomology Theories"", Hopkins, Kuhn, and Ravenel discovered a generalized character theory that proved useful in studying cohomology rings of the form E^*(BG). In this paper we use the geometry of p-divisible groups to describe a sequence of …

Attacks on multilinear maps
… analyzing the three proposals for multilinear maps which are based on ideal lattices, integers, and standard lattices. The attacks exploit the geometry of the lattices and linearity of the integers to break security. I also compare the applications of these schemes with what is required for …

Self-organizing event maps
To take further steps along the path toward true artificial intelligence, systems must be built that are capable of learning about the world around them through observation and explanation. These systems should be flexible and robust in the style of the human brain and little precompiled knowledge …

Theory of z-linear maps
La teoría que se desarrolla en esta tesis contempla las aplicaciones lineales Z a través de tres diferentes puntos de vista: como objetos de una categoría, como herramientas homológicas y funciones. En este trabajo se introduce por primera vez una categoría de aplicaciones lineales Z (o de las …

Harmonic maps of trivalent trees
This thesis is a study of harmonic maps of trivalent trees into Euclidean space. The existence of such maps is established, and uniqueness is shown to hold up to a certain isotopy condition. Moreover, within its particular isotopy class, each harmonic map is shown to be a local minimum for the …

Orthosymmetric Maps And Polynomial Valuations
… on vector lattices as orthosymmetric multilinear maps. Our proof avoids partitionaly orthosymmetric maps and results that represent orthogonally additive polynomials as linear maps on a power. We also prove band characterizations for order bounded polynomial valuations and for order continuous …

Induced maps between intersection spaces

ACM: Atlas of Connectivity Maps

Maps to get lost by
Late in 1998, Lincoln, a former journalist turned truck driver, picks up the ghost of a 17 year old white schoolgirl on a dark Joburg highway. She becomes his confessor, as he relates fragments of his life, hoping to seduce her. He is driving a shipment to Port Elizabeth, where he grew up, but does …

Area-contracting maps between rectangles
… if there is an embedding of S into R which maps each k-dimensional submanifold of S to an image with larger k-volume. I also applied the k-dilation techniques to two purely topological problems: estimating the Hopf invariant of a map from a 3-manifold to a high-genus surface, and determining …
