Generalized Koszul Properties of Commutative Local Rings
(2014)We study several properties of commutative local rings that generalize the notion of Koszul algebra. The properties are expressed in terms of the Ext algebra of the ring, or in terms of homological properties of powers ... -
Introduction of a Fully Relativistic Capable Basis Set in the ab initio Orthogonalized Linear Combination of Atomic Orbitals Method
(2014-09-30)Large simulation cell sizes, relativistic effects, and the need to correctly model excited state properties are major impediments to the accurate prediction of the optical properties of candidate materials for solid-state ... -
Photosensitivity and Magnetosensitivity of The Drosophila Circadian Clock
(2014)The experiments in this thesis addressed whether magnetic fields can enhance entrainment (phase determination) of the circadian clock by light. The experiments were conducted using a species of small fruit flies, Drosophila ...
