Spaces of polygonal triangulations and Monsky polynomials
Aaron Abrams, James Pommersheim
Given a combinatorial triangulation of an -gon, we study (a) the space of all possible drawings in the plane such the edges are straight line segments and the boundary has a fix…
An iterated random function with Lipschitz number one
Aaron Abrams, Henry Landau, Zeph Landau +2
Consider the set of functions on . Define a Markov process that starts with a point and continues with $x_{k+1}=f_{θ_{k+1}}(x_{k}…
Evasive Random Walks and the Clairvoyant Demon
Aaron Abrams, Henry Landau, Zeph Landau +2
A pair of random walks on the vertices of a graph is {\it successful} if two tokens can be scheduled (moving only one token at a time) to travel along and witho…
Optimal estimators for threshold-based quality measures
Aaron Abrams, Sandy Ganzell, Henry Landau +3
We consider a problem in parametric estimation: given samples from an unknown distribution, we want to estimate which distribution, from a given one-parameter family, produced…
