Nonorthogonal multiple access (NOMA) communication presents a promising solution to the limitations of traditional orthogonal multiple access techniques, offering potential improvements in achievable rates. Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO), when combined with NOMA (MIMO-NOMA), further enhances these benefits by leveraging the diversity advantages of multiple antennas. Looking ahead, the future of wireless communication hinges on deploying heterogeneous networks (HetNets), facilitating the coexistence of various wireless access networks in a hierarchical fashion. However, the advent of 5G and 6G communications brings shorter channel coherence times, rendering channel reciprocity unreliable. Consequently, conventional channel estimation methods relying on uplink (UL) pilots for downlink (DL) transmission …

ℤ3-Graded Cartan Calculus On 𝒪(ℂQ1|1|1), Sultan Çeli̇k, Sali̇h Çeli̇k
Turkish Journal of Mathematics
After a brief introduction of the basic concepts of ℤ3-grading, the paper continues by introducing ℤ3-graded differential calculus and ℤ3-graded Cartan calculus. Then, using a matrix R which is a solution of the Yang-Baxter equation, a new ℤ3-graded quantum group and a ℤ3-graded quantum space are introduced. The scheme of the ℤ3-graded differential calculus developed on the algebra of functions on this quantum space is extended to the ℤ3-graded Cartan calculus and all the results obtained are formulated using the matrix R.
G-Topological Groupoids, Osman Mucuk
G-Topological Groupoids, Osman Mucuk
Turkish Journal of Mathematics
In the groupoid theory, it is unclear that a topological groupoid's quotient groupoid with the quotient topology is topological. In this paper, we approach this problem considering G-methods and G-convergence. We define G-topological groupoid, which agrees with the sequential version of a topological groupoid in the particular case G=lim, and give some counterexamples. Then, we extend the usual properties of topological groupoids to the G-topological groupoids. We also prove that a G-topological groupoid's quotient groupoid is G-topological groupoid when a normal subgroupoid is suitably chosen. This result enables us to obtain examples of topological quotient groupoids in a particular case.

On Almost Kenmotsu Manifolds Admitting Nearly Vacuum Static Equations With Applications, Uday Chand De, Krishnendu De, Sudhakar Kumar Chaubey
Turkish Journal of Mathematics
In this article, we study certain characteristics of nearly vacuum static equations on almost Kenmotsu manifolds. It is established that an η-Einstein almost Kenmotsu manifold allowing nearly vacuum static equations is of constant scalar curvature and either the solution is trivial or, the manifold reduces to an Einstein manifold. Next, nearly vacuum static equations on (κ,μ)-almost Kenmotsu manifolds and generalized (κ,μ)'-nullity distribution are considered and we obtain several interesting results. Moreover, we illustrate that if a 3-dimensional Kenmotsu manifold allows nearly vacuum static equations, then the manifold is locally isometric to the hyperbolic space Η3(-1). After that, we investigate a …

Spectral analysis methods can nondestructively assess the quality of agricultural products but are limited by imaging speed and equipment costs. Therefore, they have not yet been fully integrated into engineering practices. This paper presents JujubeNet, a two-stage hyperspectral reconstruction model for detecting moisture content in jujubes. The first stage utilizes a generative pretrained Pix2Pix generative adversarial network (GAN) to generate RGB images of jujubes that mimic real camera styles and are pixel-to-pixel aligned with hyperspectral images. The second stage uses a transformer-based spectral reconstruction model to achieve hyperspectral reconstruction. Additionally, we developed a moisture content detection model based on hyperspectral …
