This thesis examines the impact that the dominant personalities of General Douglas MacArthur and Admiral Ernest King had in shaping Allied strategy in the Pacific during the Second World War. The concept of dominant personality is defined as containing three essential elements: arrogance, tenacity, and supreme competence. The lives of MacArthur and King are examined, demonstrating that the actions of each consistently reflected these characteristics, allowing them to dominate those around them....

This study investigates the military stability of South Asia, after overt display of nuclear explosions by Pakistan and India in May 1998. The two countries have been loggerhead on Kashmir dispute since their inception in 1948. Both have fought three major wars and are in the process of fighting a limited war in the Himalayan Mountains for the last seventeen years. The specific emphasis was on the analyses of the genesis of problem and the roots of mistrust between the two countries. The...

European airpower theorists envisioned the deliberate bombing of civilians in order to affect an enemy nation's wartime production capabilities and national morale. However, American proponents of airpower were more exacting in their approach to the use of the airplane. The US Army Air Corps developed the idea of precision bombing as a means to destroy an enemy's ability to prosecute war through the targeting of only an enemy's means of production and state infrastructure while avoiding...

This study deals with the historical evolution of the Muslim uprising in Mindanao and how the present Muslim secessionist groups: the Moro National Liberation Front (MNLF), the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF), and the Abu Sayyaf Group (ASG), evolved from this problem which started way back in the sixteenth century. It also discuss the peace initiatives of the Philippine government in trying to put a solution and an end to this problem. It aims to seek answers to the following questions:...

We emphasize the importance of tagging the outgoing forward protons to sharpen the predictions for New Physics at the LHC (such as the diffractive production of a light Higgs boson). The rescattering effects lead to a rich distinctive structure of the cross section as a function of the transverse momenta of the protons. We show that a study of the correlations between the proton transverse momenta for double-diffractive production of central dijets will provide a detailed check of the whole...

In this paper we introduce and discuss some classes of orthogonal polynomials in several non-commuting variables. The emphasis is on a non-commutative version of the orthogonal polynomials on the real line. We introduce recurrence equations for these polynomials, Christoffel-Darboux formulas, and Jacobi type matrices.

This paper describes incentives established to confront longstanding differences in test performance by race and ethnicity and to set student performance goals. The federal No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 aspires to set goals for subgroups defined by race/ethnicity, economic disadvantage, disability, and English language learner status. A growing number of states are setting performance targets not only for schools overall but for subgroups of students within the schools as well. Section 1...

This study specifically examines three aspects of doctrine concerning the retention and employment of reserves at the tactical level. Should commanders retain a reserve? If retained, should the reserve be kept to the rear, and should the reserve be comprised of only uncommitted forces? The thesis is that doctrine concerning the retention and employment of reserves at the tactical level is not efficient and effective. An evaluation of the historical evolution and application of reserves provide...

In 1999 the European Union (EU) established goals of fielding by 2003 a 60,000-troop force, deployable within sixty days and sustainable for up to one year. The force will be used for so-called Petersberg tasks, that is, humanitarian and rescue tasks, peacekeeping tasks, and tasks of combat forces in crisis management, including peacemaking. The goals were spurred by European desires to have a crisis-response force which could act autonomously from NATO if necessary. This thesis explores the...

Okay, so I lied. For the past week, I've been working excrutiatingly hard on this skin and put more time and effort into it than my other two skins by far.

On May 31, 2002, the Blackjack Bay Complex Fire was still growing in the Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge in southeastern Georgia. The fire is spreading to the southeast and is now close to the Florida border. Started by lightning on April 30, the fire has been burning for over a month now, and has consumed more than 125,000 acres. In this image, the cluster of three red dots to the right of center mark the location of the active fires in the complex, and a large, dark burn scar is visible...

We perform Monte Carlo simulations to determine the average excluded area $$ of randomly oriented squares, randomly oriented widthless sticks and aligned squares in two dimensions. We find significant differences between our results for randomly oriented squares and previous analytical results for the same. The sources of these differences are explained. Using our results for $$ and Monte Carlo simulation results for the percolation threshold, we estimate the mean number of connections per...

We study the exclusive decays of $B\to K^{*}\ell^+ \ell^-$ within the framework of the perturbative QCD (PQCD). We obtain the form factors for the $B\to K^{*}$ transition in the large recoil region, where the PQCD for heavy $B$ meson decays is reliable. We find that our results for the form factors at $q^2=0$ are consistent with those from most of the other QCD models in the literature. Via the decay chain of $B\to K^* (K\pi) \ell^+ \ell^-$, we obtain many physical observables related to the...

The Monte Carlo (MC) Hamiltonian is a new stochastic method to solve many-body problems. The MC Hamiltonian represents an effective Hamiltonian in a finite energy window. We construct it from the classical action via Monte Carlo with importance sampling. The MC Hamiltonian yields the energy spectrum and corresponding wave functions in a low energy window. This allows to compute thermodynamical observables in a low temperature window. We show the working of the MC Hamiltonian by an example from...

The sensitivity of the ATLAS detector to the discovery of a heavy charged Higgs boson is presented. Assuming a heavy SUSY spectrum, the most promising channels above the top quark mass are $H^\pm\to tb$ and $H^\pm\to\tau^\pm\nu_\tau$ which provide coverage in the low and high $\tan\beta$ regions up to $\sim 600$ GeV. The achievable precisions on the charged Higgs mass and $\tan\beta$ determination are also discussed. The $H^\pm\to W^\pm h^0$ channel, though restricted to a small MSSM parameter...

Based on recent results for multi-armed bandit problems, the authors propose an adaptive sampling algorithm that approximates the optimal value of a finite horizon Markov decision process (MDP) with infinite state space but finite action space and bounded rewards. The algorithm adaptively chooses which action to sample as the sampling process proceeds, and it is proven that the estimate produced by the algorithm is asymptotically unbiased and the worst possible bias is bounded by a quantity...
