Classification of Multidimensional Darboux Transformations: First Order and Continued Type
We analyze Darboux transformations in very general settings for
multidimensional linear partial differential operators. We consider all known
types of Darboux transformations, and present a new type. We obtain a full
classification of all operators that admit Wronskian type Darboux
transformations of first order and a complete description of all possible
first-order Darboux transformations. We introduce a large class of invertible
Darboux transformations of higher order, which we call Darboux transformations
of continued Type I. This generalizes the class of Darboux transformations of
Type I, which was previously introduced. There is also a modification of this
type of Darboux transformations, continued Wronskian type, which generalize
Wronskian type Darboux transformations
Traffic Analysis in Random Delaunay Tessellations and Other Graphs
In this work we study the degree distribution, the maximum vertex and edge
flow in non-uniform random Delaunay triangulations when geodesic routing is
used. We also investigate the vertex and edge flow in Erd\"os-Renyi random
graphs, geometric random graphs, expanders and random -regular graphs.
Moreover we show that adding a random matching to the original graph can
considerably reduced the maximum vertex flow.Comment: Submitted to the Journal of Discrete Computational Geometr
Resolving Range Conflict in Nevada? The Potential for Compensation via Monetary Payouts and Grazing Alternatives
In response to environmental pressure, public land agencies in Nevada have reduced animal unit months (AUMs) of grazing on public lands. This has resulted in economic losses to ranchers, increased conflict between ranchers and the public land agencies, and general unrest in the ranch community. One approach to resolving the problems might be to compensate ranchers for lost grazing privileges. In this study, we employ the results of the Nevada Ranch Survey to examine ranchers’ willingness to accept a one-time payment to retire grazing rights, as well as three other means of “compensating” ranchers that enable them to earn a living from the public lands despite reduced access to public forage. The results suggest that ranchers are not keen on being compensated in any form, expressing a desire to continue ranching. However, those most amenable to compensation and a reworking of the social contract are those who have the best relationship with the public land manager and view the public agencies in a positive light.range economics, environmental services from public land, compensation for grazing rights, social capital and trust

Lawyers Take Heed! A De Novo Review of Rule 11 in North Carolina - Turner v. Duke Univ.
This Note will propose the standard of review which best balances both concerns. First, this Note will summarize the facts of Turner, to introduce the setting of the Rule 11 decision. Second, in the Background section, this Note will explore the history of Rule 11 in the federal courts and in North Carolina, and the various standards of review adopted in the federal courts. Third, this Note will analyze the Turner decision and the standard of appellate review adopted by the North Carolina Supreme Court. Fourth, this Note will compare the standards of review and suggest which of the standards furthers or hinders the purposes of Rule 11. Through this Note, the reader should have a sharper understanding of Rule 11, and its treatment in the federal courts and in North Carolina. Finally, this Note urges the reader to consider the impact which a particular standard of review may have on a decision under Rule 11 and on litigation generally
