The Name Tag Problem, Christian Carley
The Name Tag Problem, Christian Carley
Rose-Hulman Undergraduate Mathematics Journal
The Name Tag Problem is a thought experiment that, when formalized, serves as an introduction to the concept of an orthomorphism of $\Zn$. Orthomorphisms are a type of group permutation and their graphs are used to construct mutually orthogonal Latin squares, affine planes and other objects. This paper walks through the formalization of the Name Tag Problem and its linear solutions, which center around modular arithmetic. The characterization of which linear mappings give rise to these solutions developed in this paper can be used to calculate the exact number of linear orthomorphisms for any additive group Z/nZ, which is demonstrated …

Natural Neutrosophic Numbers And Mod Neutrosophic Numbers, Florentin Smarandache, W.B. Vasantha Kandasamy, K. Ilanthenral
Branch Mathematics and Statistics Faculty and Staff Publications
In this book authors answer the question proposed by Florentin Smarandache “Does there exist neutrosophic numbers which are such that they take values differently and behave differently from I; the indeterminate?”. We have constructed a class of natural neutrosophic numbers m 0I , m xI , m yI , m zI where m 0I × m 0I = m 0I , m xI × m xI = m xI and m yI × m yI = m yI and m yI × m xI = m 0I and m zI × m zI = m 0I . Here take m …
Special Quasi Dual Numbers And Groupoids, Florentin Smarandache, W.B. Vasantha Kandasamy
Special Quasi Dual Numbers And Groupoids, Florentin Smarandache, W.B. Vasantha Kandasamy
Branch Mathematics and Statistics Faculty and Staff Publications
In this book the authors introduce a new notion called special quasi dual number, x = a + bg.
Among the reals – 1 behaves in this way, for (– 1)2 = 1 = – (– 1). Likewise –I behaves in such a way (– I)2 = – (– I). These special quasi dual numbers can be generated from matrices with entries from 1 or I using only the natural product ×n. Another rich source of these special quasi dual numbers or quasi special dual numbers is Zn, n a composite number. For instance 8 in Z12 is such that …
Asupra Unor Noi Functii În Teoria Numerelor, Florentin Smarandache
Asupra Unor Noi Functii În Teoria Numerelor, Florentin Smarandache
Branch Mathematics and Statistics Faculty and Staff Publications
Performantele matematicii actuale,ca si descoperirile din viitor isi au,desigur, inceputul in cea mai veche si mai aproape de filozofie ramura a matematicii, in teoria numerelor. Matematicienii din toate timpurile au fost, sunt si vor fi atrasi de frumusetea si varietatea problemelor specifice acestei ramuri a matematicii. Regina a matematicii, care la randul ei este regina a stiintelor, dupa cum spunea Gauss, teoria numerelor straluceste cu lumina si atractiile ei, fascinandu-ne si usurandu-ne drumul cunoasterii legitatilor ce guverneaza macrocosmosul si microcosmosul. De la etapa antichitatii, cand teoria numerelor era cuprinsa in aritmetica, la etapa aritmeticii superioare din perioada Renasterii, cand teoria …
