Some Results On The $\Mathcal{P}_{V,2n}$, $\Mathcal{K}_{V,N}$, And $\Mathcal{H}_{V,N}$-Integral Transforms, Ayşe Neşe Dernek, Fati̇h Aylikci

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In this paper, the authors consider the $\mathcal{P}_{v,2n}$-transform, the $\mathcal{G}_n$-transform, and the $\mathcal{K}_{v,n}$-transform as generalizations of the Widder potential transform, the Glasser transform, and the $\mathcal{K}_v$-transform, respectively. Many identities involving these transforms are given. A number of new Parseval-Goldstein type identities are obtained for these and many other well-known integral transforms. Some useful corollaries for evaluating infinite integrals of special functions are presented. Illustrative examples are given for the results.


An Age-Structured Model For The Transmission Dynamics Of Hepatitis B: Asymptotic Analysis, Rodrigue Yves M'Pika Makoussou, Aboubakari Traore Jan 2017

An Age-Structured Model For The Transmission Dynamics Of Hepatitis B: Asymptotic Analysis, Rodrigue Yves M'Pika Makoussou, Aboubakari Traore

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In this paper, we consider the age-structured model for the transmission dynamics of Hepatitis B virus (HBV) proposed earlier in the article by Zou et al.: An age-structured model for transmission dynamics of hepatitis B. SIAM J Appl Math 2010; 70: 3121-3139, where a slight modification is made. We consider that the HBV infection processes act on a time scale different from that of the vital processes. Such a model becomes a multiple time scale model and thus it often can be significantly simplified by various asymptotic methods. We apply, as in the paper of Banasiak and M'pika Massoukou: A …

Generalized Drazin Invertibility Of The Product And Sum Of Two Elements In A Banach Algebra And Its Applications, Honglin Zou, Dijana Mosic, Jianlong Chen

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

Let $a,b$ be two commutative generalized Drazin invertible elements in a Banach algebra; the expressions for the generalized Drazin inverse of the product $ab$ and the sum $a+b$ were studied in some current literature on this subject. In this paper, we generalize these results under the weaker conditions $a^{2}b=aba$ and $b^{2}a=bab$. As an application of our results, we obtain some new representations for the generalized Drazin inverse of a block matrix with the generalized Schur complement being generalized Drazin invertible in a Banach algebra, extending some recent works.

Canonical Involution On Double Jet Bundles, Hülya Kadioğlu Jan 2017

Canonical Involution On Double Jet Bundles, Hülya Kadioğlu

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In this study, we generalize double tangent bundles to double jet bundles. We present a secondary vector bundle structure on a 1-jet of a vector bundle. We show that the 1-jet of a vector bundle carries two vector bundle structures, namely primary and secondary structures. We also show that the manifold charts induced by primary and secondary structures belong to the same atlas. We prove that double jet bundles can be considered as a quotient of the second order jet bundle. We show that there exists a natural involution that interchanges between primary and secondary vector bundle structures on double …


Dissipative Operator And Its Cayley Transform, Eki̇n Uğurlu, Kenan Taş Jan 2017

Dissipative Operator And Its Cayley Transform, Eki̇n Uğurlu, Kenan Taş

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In this paper, we investigate the spectral properties of the maximaldissipative extension of the minimal symmetric differential operatorgenerated by a second order differential expression and dissipative andeigenparameter dependent boundary conditions. For this purpose we use thecharacteristic function of the maximal dissipative operator and inverseoperator. This investigation is done by the characteristic function of theCayley transform of the maximal dissipative operator, which is a completelynonunitary contraction belonging to the class $C_{0}.$ Using Solomyak'smethod we also introduce the self-adjoint dilation of the maximal dissipativeoperator and incoming/outgoing eigenfunctions of the dilation. Moreover, weinvestigate other properties of the Cayley transform of the maximaldissipative operator.

On Generalized Kropina Change Of $M$Th Root Finsler Metrics With Special Curvature Properties, Bankteshwar Tiwari, Ghanashyam Kr. Prajapati

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In the present paper, we consider generalized Kropina change of $m$th root Finsler metrics and prove that every generalized Kropina change of $m$th root Finsler metrics with isotropic Berwald curvature, isotropic mean Berwald curvature, relatively isotropic Landsberg curvature, and relatively isotropic mean Landsberg curvature reduces to the Berwald metric, weakly Berwald metric, Landsberg metric, and weakly Landsberg metric, respectively. We also show that every generalized Kropina change of $m$th root Finsler metrics with almost vanishing $\textbf{H}$-curvature has vanishing $\textbf{H}$-curvature.


On The Bounds Of The Forgotten Topological Index, Suresh Elumalai, Toufik Mansour, Mohammad Ali Rostami Jan 2017

On The Bounds Of The Forgotten Topological Index, Suresh Elumalai, Toufik Mansour, Mohammad Ali Rostami

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

The forgotten topological index is defined as the sum of cubes of the degrees of the vertices of the molecular graph $G.$ In this paper, we obtain, analyze, and compare various lower bounds for the forgotten topological index involving the number of vertices, edges, and maximum and minimum vertex degree. Then we give Nordhaus--Gaddum-type inequalities for the forgotten topological index and coindex. Finally, we correct the number of extremal chemical trees on 15 vertices.

A Two-Obstacle Problem With Variable Exponent And Measure Data, Hongtao Li, Xiaojuan Chai Jan 2017

A Two-Obstacle Problem With Variable Exponent And Measure Data, Hongtao Li, Xiaojuan Chai

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

We consider a two-obstacle problem with measure data. For measures that do not charge sets of zero $p(\cdot)$-capacity, we obtain the existence and uniqueness of the solution. On the other hand, for the measure concentrated on a set with zero $p(\cdot)$-capacity, we prove a nonexistence result in the sense that when one looks for solutions via approximation, one cannot find a reasonable solution; see Theorem 2.3 and Remark 2.1 below.

Permutation Groups With Cyclic-Block Property And $Mnfc$-Groups, Ali̇ Osman Asar Jan 2017

Permutation Groups With Cyclic-Block Property And $Mnfc$-Groups, Ali̇ Osman Asar

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

This work continues the investigation of perfect locally finite minimal non-$FC$-groups in totally imprimitive permutation $p$-groups. At present, the class of totally imprimitive permutation $p$-groups satisfying the cyclic-block property is known to be the only class of $p$-groups having common properties with a hypothetical minimal non-$FC$-group, because a totally imprimitive permutation $p$-group satisfying the cyclic-block property cannot be generated by a subset of finite exponent and every non-$FC$-subgroup of it is transitive, which are the properties satisfied by a minimal non-$FC$-group. Here a sufficient condition is given for the nonexistence of minimal non-$FC$-groups in this class of permutation groups. In …

A New Approach To Uniqueness For Inverse Sturm-Liouville Problems On Finite Intervals, Seyfollah Mosazadeh

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In this paper, an approach for studying inverse Sturm--Liouville problems with integrable potentials on finite intervals is presented. We find the relations between Weyl solutions and $m_{j}$-functions of Sturm--Liouville problems, and by finding the connection between these and the solutions of second-order partial differential equations for transformation kernels associated with Sturm--Liouville operators, we prove the uniqueness of the solution of inverse problems.

A Characterization Of Nonprime Powers, Raul Duran Diaz, Luis Hernandez Encinas, Agustin Martin Muñoz, Jaime Muñoz Masque, Seok-Zun Song

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

A criterion is presented in order to decide whether agiven integer is a prime power or not. The criterion associatesto each positive integer $m$ a finite set of integers$\mathcal{S}(m)$, each of them $\le m $ and the propertiesof this set are studied. The notion of complementary pairsin $\mathcal{S}(m)$ is introduced and it is proved that if one isable to determine a complementary pair $n,n^\prime $, thena partial factorization of the odd integer $m$ can be obtainedin polynomial time. Some particular cases and examples of these resultsare given.

We prove that for any $c ın (0,1]$ there exists an element $x_c ın X$ such that$$ c d_n \leq \rho(x_c, Y_n) \leq \min (4, \tilde{a}) …

A Note On Locally Graded Minimal Non-Metahamiltonian Groups, Sevgi̇ Atlihan Jan 2017

A Note On Locally Graded Minimal Non-Metahamiltonian Groups, Sevgi̇ Atlihan

We prove that a nonperfect locally gradedminimal non-metahamiltonian group $G$ is a soluble group withderived length of at most 4. On the other hand, if $G$ is perfect,then $G/\Phi (G)$ is isomorphic to $A_{5}$, where $\Phi (G)$ isthe Frattini subgroup of $G$ and $A_{5}$ is the alternating group.Moreover, we show that under some conditions,if G is a $p$-group, then G is metabelian, where $p$ is a prime integer.
