Résumé :
In this thesis two different topics in SYM theories are investigated. In the first part we use the AdS/CFT correspondence to study the problem of flavor symmetry for theories that are marginal deformations of the maximal SYM theory. In particular, we compute exactly the masses of the mesons of these theories. The results show that the mass spectrum is discrete, with a mass gap and a Zeeman-like splitting of the mass levels occurs. In the second part of the thesis, we develop a direct computational technique for scattering amplitudes in SYM theories. A combined use of background field method, s

<p>This thesis is concerned with singularly perturbed two-parameter problems. We study a tted nite difference method as applied on two different meshes namely a piecewise mesh (of Shishkin type) and a graded mesh (of Bakhvalov type) as well as a tted operator nite di erence method. We notice that results on Bakhvalov mesh are better than those on Shishkin mesh. However, piecewise uniform meshes provide a simpler platform for analysis and computations. Fitted operator methods are even simpler in these regards due to the ease of operating on uniform meshes. Richardson extrapolation is applied on

Résumé :
An alternative formulation of the governing equations of a dynamical system, called the multi-scale localized perturbation method, is introduced and derived for the purpose of solving complex geophysical flow problems. Simulation variables are decomposed into background and perturbation components, then assumptions are made about the evolution of these components within the context of an environmental flow in order to close the system. Once closed, the original governing equations become a set of one-way coupled governing equations called the "delta form" of the governing equations for short,

American options are much harder to deal with than European ones. The reason being the optimal exercise policy of these options which led to free boundary problems.

Résumé :
Ice sheets, such as the Greenland Ice Sheet or Antarctic Ice Sheet, have a fundamental impact on landscape formation, the global climate system, and on sea level rise. The slow, creeping flow of ice can be represented by a non-linear version of the Stokes equations, which treat ice as a non-Newtonian, viscous fluid. Large spatial domains combined with long time spans and complexities such as a non-linear rheology, make ice sheet simulations computationally challenging. The topic of this thesis is the efficiency and error control of large simulations, both in the sense of mathematical modelling

Problem Statement: The use of pulsed electric fields (PEFs) as a tumor treatment modality is receiving increased traction. A typical clinical procedure involves insertion of a pair of electrodes into the tumor and administration of PEFs (amplitude: ~1 kV/cm; pulse-width: 100 μs). This leaves a zone of complete cell death and a sub-lethal zone where a fraction of the cells survive. There is substantial evidence of an anti-tumor systemic immune profile in animal patients treated with PEFs.

In this dissertation, the evolution of a pressure wave driven by a harmonic signal on the boundary during gas combustion is studied.

The zeroth, first and second-order perturbation solutions are obtained and their moduli are plotted against frequency.
