Mathematical Background: We expect that the student is comfortable with basic mathematics at the level of a U.S. first-year college STEM student. This includes basic notions such as sets and functions ...

Abstract: For spin systems on a tree, the reconstruction problem is to determine whether correlations persist between vertices deep inside the tree and the root. The problem has been studied in ...
