  4. 3. Quantum Transport in Topological Insulator Nanowires

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Sergi Pradas Rodriguez; [2023]
    Keywords : quantum transport; topological insulators; nanowires; numerical analysis; Kwant; etc.; kvanttransport; topologiska isolatorer; nanotrådar; numerisk analys; Kvant; etc.;

    Abstract : Three-dimensional topological insulators are materials that have a bulk band gap like a traditional insulator, but which hold topologically protected conducting surface states. In this thesis we present a numerical analysis of the surface states of topological insulator nanowires in the tight-binding approximation. READ MORE

  5. 4. A Continuous-time ODE Framework to Centrality in Dynamic Networks

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematikcentrum; Lunds universitet/Matematik (naturvetenskapliga fakulteten)

    Author : Francisco Garcia Atienza; [2023]
    Keywords : networks; centrality; continuous-time; matrix logarithm; ode framework; katz; resolvent; Mathematics and Statistics;

    Abstract : The present study discusses and evaluates a novel continuous-time approach to network centrality, a fundamental concept in network analysis. Static methods based on discrete snapshots or time slices for measuring node interaction in networks that change over time do not fully capture the dynamical nature of network evolution. READ MORE

  6. 5. From Dawn to Dusk: studying the origin of the Islamic fivefold daily liturgy in the Qur’ān

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Centrum för teologi och religionsvetenskap

    Author : Davide de Francesco; [2023]
    Keywords : Islam; prayer; Qur anic studies; Qur anic exegeses; Christianity; Judaism; Philosophy and Religion;

    Abstract : Despite prayer being one of the most central tenets of Islam, this subject has drawn the attention of surprisingly little scholarship, especially when it comes to studying its origin against pre-Islamic analogues. Thus, this thesis proposes a reconstruction of the very early history of the fivefold daily Islamic liturgy, attempting also to weigh the extent of the influence that pre-Islamic religions, primarily Middle Eastern Christianity and Judaism, might have had in its development.
