Hypothesis testing, likelihood ratio tests, nonparametric tests, bivariate and multivariate normal distributions

Continuation of Abstract Algebra I, with emphasis on Galois theory, modules, polynomial fields, and the theory of linear associative algebra.

Combinatorial problem-solving techniques including the use of generating functions, recurrence relations, Polya theory, combinatorial designs, Ramsey theory, matroids, and asymptotic analysis.

This course is a problem oriented introduction to the basic concepts of probability and statistics, providing a foundation for applications and further study.

Elementary combinatorial techniques used in discrete problem solving: counting methods, solving linear recurrences, graph and network models, related algorithms, and combinatorial designs.

The second of a two course sequence of faculty-directed independent research culminating in the writing of a senior thesis and its presentation.

Minimization of functionals, Euler Lagrange equations, sufficient conditions for a minimum, geodesic, isoperimetric and time of transit problems, variational principles of mechanics, applications to control theory.

An introduction to the Ito stochastic calculus and stochastic differential equations through a development of continuous-time martingales and Markov processes. (2nd of two courses in sequence)

Applications of probabilistic techniques in discrete mathematics, including classical ideas using expectation and variance as well as modern tools, such as martingale and correlation inequalities.
