Music in words : the music of Anthony Burgess, and the role of music in his literature
No full textTheý principal focus of the thesis is Anthony Burgess, a prolific novelist whose first and
enduring creative passion was music in general and composition in particular. Burgess
criticism is limited and largely out-of-date, showing little recognition of the aural or musical
elements in his fiction, and virtually no specialist commentary on the music and its
relationships with the literature. The main aim of the thesis, therefore, is to demonstrate the
variety and strength of the widespread musical elements in Burgess's literature, including the
importance he attaches to the sonic basis of language, and to show that these are supported by
the musical sensibility and technical competence evident in his. compositions. It is suggested
that in the inevitable reassessmenot f his work following his death in 1993, the effects of his
musicianship on his literary work should play a greater part than hitherto, and the thesis makes
a contribution to this reassessmenbt oth through its original critical commentaries on his music
and through the music-orientated discussion of his literature.
After an introduction and literature review, the first chapter examines three examples of
Burgess's little-known music. All are associated with verbal texts, though the range is
otherwise wide, and through them it is possible to draw conclusions about the competence of
his handling of musical language and structure. The second and third chapters examine the
more familiar work of Burgess the acclaimed author, but from the unfamiliar viewpoint of its
musical content, including not only surface references but also hidden allusions and technical
puzzles aimed at the musician reader. Two instances of music serving as a structural template
for literature are analysed in detail, and attention is also drawn to Burgess's awareness of
musical elements in the content and language of the, work of some. of his predecessors. The
final core-chapter,e xamines the fusion of Burgess's literary and,m usical skills in the context of
his music and words for stage and radio.
What emerges is the clear intermeshing of his parallel careers;, and the production within his
distinctive literary output of work which, due to the radical extent of its musicalisation, has to
be viewed as musically-aware literature for specialised readers, at times evincing, it is
proposed, a logic which springs primarily from music

On the Oberwolfach problem for single-flip 2-factors via graceful labelings
No full textLet F be a 2-regular graph of order v. The Oberwolfach problem OP(F), posed in 1967 and still open, asks for a decomposition of Kv into copies of F. In this paper we show that OP(F) has a solution whenever F has a sufficiently large cycle which meets a given lower bound and, in addition, has a single-flip automorphism, which is an involutory automorphism acting as a reflection on exactly one of the cycles of F. Furthermore, we prove analogous results for the minimum covering version and the maximum packing version of the problem. We also show a similar result when the edges of Kv have multiplicity 2, but in this case we do not require that F be single-flip. Our approach allows us to explicitly construct solutions to the Oberwolfach Problem with well-behaved automorphisms, in contrast with some recent asymptotic results, based on probabilistic methods, which are nonconstructive and do not provide a lower bound on the order of F that guarantees the solvability of OP(F). Our constructions are based on a doubling construction which applies to graceful labelings of 2-regular graphs with a vertex removed. We show that this class of graphs is graceful as long as the length of the path-component is sufficiently large. A much better lower bound on the length of the path is given for an α-labeling of such graphs to exist
TRL semantics and Burgess' formula

The Hamilton–Waterloo Problem with even cycle lengths
No full textThe Hamilton–Waterloo Problem HWP(v;m,n;α,β) asks for a 2-factorization of the complete graph K_v or K_v −I, the complete graph with the edges of a 1-factor removed, into α C_m-factors and β C_n-factors, where 3 ≤ m < n. In the case that m and n are both even, the problem has been solved except possibly when 1 ∈ {α,β} or when α and β are both odd, in which case necessarily v ≡ 2 (mod 4). In this paper, we develop a new construction that creates factorizations with larger cycles from existing factorizations under certain conditions. This construction enables us to show that there is a solution to HWP(v;2m,2n;α,β) for odd α and β whenever the obvious necessary conditions hold, except possibly if β=1; β=3 and gcd(m,n)=1; α=1; or v=2mn∕gcd(m,n). This result almost completely settles the existence problem for even cycles, other than the possible exceptions noted above

Short sketch of William P. MacIntire,, pioneer of 1849-1861
No full textTypescript of a biographical sketch of William Patterson McIntire, written by a granddaughter, Mrs. Jennie C. (Burgess) Miles.
