Let K|Q be a number field and let Z(K,s) be its associated complex L-function. The analytic class number formula relates special values of Z(K,s) with algebraic invariants of the field K itself. It admits a Galois equivariant ...

The goal of this thesis is to solve the embedding problem for Markov matrices, posed by Gustav Elfving in1937. A Markov matrix is non-negative square matrix whose rows sum to 1. We say that such a matrix M is embeddable ...

Fracture mechanics of brittle materials has focused on bulk materials with isotropic surface energy. In this situation different physical principles for crack path selection are very similar or even equivalent. The situation ...
