College of Sciences (CoS)
The College of Sciences was created by a separation from the College of Sciences and Liberal Studies. The new College was established in anticipation of the growing importance of interdisciplinary scientific technology-and its establishment has proven to be both wise and timely.

The Hunt for Planet B
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2022-11-14)For thousands of years, inspired by the star-filled dark night sky, people have wondered what lies beyond Earth. Today, the search for signs of life is a key factor in modern-day planetary exploration. Astronomers have ... -
Topological Properties of SU(n) Fermions
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2022-07-30)Ultra-cold fermions loaded in optical lattices have become ideal systems to study related electronic phase diagrams and transport properties, because they provide a clean and well controlled playground to change various ... -
Shortest closed curve to inspect a sphere
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2022-07-30)We show that in Euclidean 3-space any closed curve γ which lies outside the unit sphere and contains the sphere within its convex hull has length ≥ 4π. Equality holds only when γ is composed of 4 semicircles of length π, ... -
Thulium atoms embedded in noble gas crystals for sensing applications
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2022-07-30)Narrow linewidth atomic transitions provide opportunities for the development of various quantum technologies. Thulium has an unfulfilled 4$f$ orbital with the electronic configuration similar to Yb$^{3+}$ which is used ... -
Improved Understanding of Intraplate Earthquakes in the Southeastern USA with Matched Filter Detection
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2022-07-30)Most earthquakes occur along plate boundaries (also known as interplate earthquakes) and are caused by repeated accumulation and release of strain in tectonic plates moving past one another. However, the same driving forces ... -
Algebraic and semi-algebraic invariants on quadrics
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2022-07-30)This dissertation consists of two topics concerning algebraic and semi-algebraic invariants on quadrics. The ranks of the minimal graded free resolution of square-free quadratic monomial ideals can be investigated ... -
Characterization of biological signatures of ribonucleotides incorporated into DNA using the Ribose-Map bioinformatics toolkit
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2022-07-30)The incorporation of ribonucleoside monophosphates (rNMPs) into DNA is one of the most frequently occurring errors during DNA synthesis. To maintain genome integrity, the ribonuclease (RNase) H enzymes efficiently remove ... -
Unsupervised Algorithms for Automated Gene Prediction in Novel Eukaryotic Genomes
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2022-07-29)Gene prediction, the identification of the location and structure of protein-coding genes in genomic sequences, is one of the first and most important steps in the analysis of assembled genomes. The exponential growth of ... -
Matching problems in hypergraphs
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2022-07-30)Kühn, Osthus, and Treglown and, independently, Khan proved that if H is a 3-uniform hypergraph on n vertices, where n is a multiple of 3 and large, and the minimum vertex degree of H is greater than {(n-1) choose 2} - {2n/3 ... -
Application of The Circle Method in Five Number Theory Problems
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2022-08-01)This thesis consists of three applications of the circle method in number theory problems. In the first chapter, we study a question of Graham. Are there infinitely many integers $n$ for which the central binomial coefficient ... -
Search for astrophysical neutrino sources using IceCube low-energy neutrinos

Studying Millisecond Pulsars and Pulsar Tails in the Very-High-Energy Gamma-ray Regime with VERITAS
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2022-07-26)Years have passed since the first detection of pulsed very-high-energy (VHE; E \textgreater 100 GeV) gamma-rays from the Crab pulsar with VERITAS, yet much is still unresolved in relation to the nature of pulsar emission ... -
NON-SEPARATING PATHS IN GRAPHS
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2022-08-01)When developing a theory for 3-connected graphs, Tutte showed that for any 3-connected graph G and any three vertices a, b, c of G, G-c has an a-b path P such that G-P is connected. We call paths non-separating if their ... -
Computational Genomics to Characterize the Distribution, Diversity and Drug Resistance of Fungal Pathogens
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2022-07-26)Molecular strain typing of pathogenic fungi has been the “gold-standard” of epidemiology and laboratory-based surveillance in public health mycology providing information on the geographic distribution among groups of ... -
Trellis Decoding And Applications For Quantum Error Correction
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2022-08-08)Compact, graphical representations of error-correcting codes called trellises are a crucial tool in classical coding theory, establishing both theoretical properties and performance metrics for practical use. The idea was ... -
