ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
I would like to thank Prof. Grigolini, for supporting me for the entire period of the PhD,
and, above all, for sharing with me his view of Physics. A very special thank goes to my
wife, Nanza, without whom it would have been impossible to work on this dissertation, and
to my parents and parents-in-law.
I would like to thank all the faculties and staff at the Department of Physics. Especially,
I wish to thank Dr. Krokhin for his support and friendship in these years. A special thank
goes to the faculties at the Center for Nonlinear Science of the University of North Texas,
Dr. Deering and Dr. Roberts, director of the center, for their help and their support through
these years. I am deeply grateful to Mrs. Bowden for her help in all the situations, ordinary
and non-ordinary, that have occurred during the time I spent at the Department of Physics.
A special thank goes also to Mrs. Deacon, without whom it would have been very difficult
for me to achieve this important objective. A very special thank goes to Mrs. Bourns and
the staff of the UNT grant office for guiding me through the very delicate process of a human
subject application.
The invaluable help of Dr. Paradisi, ISAC-CNR of Lecce, Italy, is warmly acknowledged,
as well as the collaboration of Dr. Ignaccolo, at the Center for Nonlinear Science at the
University of North Texas. Also, the research assistance of Mr. Nagaraj and Mr. Geneston
is thankfully acknowledged.
Dr. Simpkins and all the members of the Institutional Review Board, are thankfully
acknowledged for approving the use of human subjects data for this dissertation, through
application No. 07-103. I very warmly acknowledge the Welch foundation for basic research
in Chemistry for financial support through grant No. B-1577, and the Army Research Office
for financial support through grant No. W911NF-5-00059.iii
