It is a curious fact of CNS development that more than half of the neurons and glial cells that are born are destined to die. The elimination of these cells is accomplished by an orderly type of cellular suicide called programmed cell death or apoptosis (pronounced ap-a-tow’-sis). Although developmental biologists have long recognized the role of programmed cell death in metamorphosis and in sc...

In this paper, we introduce the notion of k-comma codes a proper generalization of the notion of comma-free codes. For a given positive integer k, a k-comma code is a set L over an alphabet Σ with the property that LΣL ∩ ΣLΣ = ∅. Informally, in a k-comma code, no codeword can be a subword of the catenation of two other codewords separated by a “comma” of length k. A k-comma code is indeed a cod...

Preface The work reviewed in this thesis has been carried out during the years 2005-2009 at the Department of Physics in the University of Jyväskylä. I am most grateful to my supervisor Doc. Kimmo Kainulainen for excellent guidance and support during these years. I have been privileged to share his profound ideas and wide knowledge of particle physics and cosmology. A major part of this work ha...
