On The Equivalence Of Alexandrov Curvature And Busemann Curvature, Shijie Gu

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

It is shown that the curvature bounded above (resp. below) in the sense of Alexandrov is equivalent to the curvature bounded above (resp. below) in the sense of Busemann if and only if the sum of adjacent average angles is at least (resp. at most) $\pi$.


Topological Entropies Of A Class Of Constrained Systems, Yanni Ma, Bingzhe Hou Jan 2017

Topological Entropies Of A Class Of Constrained Systems, Yanni Ma, Bingzhe Hou

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In this paper, we consider a class of constrained systems named double upper bounds $(p,q)$-constrained systems ($(p,q)$-DUB systems in brief), which are one-dimensional subshifts of finite type. We determinate the topological entropies (Shannon capacities) $C(p,q)$ of all $(p,q)$-DUB systems and consequently order all $(p,q)$-DUB systems according to the size of topological entropies. In particular, $C(p, \infty)=C(p+1, p+1)$ are the only equalities possible among the topological entropies of $(p,q)$-DUB systems.


Nonpolynomial Spline Technique For The Solution Of Ninth Order Boundary Value Problems, Ghazala Akram, Zara Nadeem Jan 2017

Nonpolynomial Spline Technique For The Solution Of Ninth Order Boundary Value Problems, Ghazala Akram, Zara Nadeem

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In this paper, a nonpolynomial spline technique is applied to solve the ninth order linear special case boundary value problems. The end conditions are derived to complete the definition of a spline. Three examples are numerically illustrated to check the efficiency of the method. The comparative analysis shows that the proposed technique gives better results than the homotopy perturbation method and the modified variational iteration method.

Computation Of Conditional Expectation Based On The Multidimensional J-Process Using Malliavin Calculus Related To Pricing American Options, Mohamed Kharrat

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In this work, we extend the uni-dimensional results, already found by Jerbi and Kharrat, for the multidimensional case: we compute the Malliavin weights related to the conditional expectation $\mathbb{E}(P_{t}(X_{t}) (X_{s}))$ for $0 \leq s \leq t$, where the only state variable follows a multidimensional J-process.

On Certain Gbs-Durrmeyer Operators Based On $Q$-Integers, Dan Barbosu, Ana Maria Acu, Carmen Violeta Muraru

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In the present paper we introduce the $GBS$ (Generalized Boolean Sum) operators of Durrmeyer type based on $q$-integers and the approximation of B-continuous functions using the above operators is studied. In addition, a uniform convergence theorem is established and the degree of approximation in terms of mixed modulus of continuity is evaluated. The study contains in the last section numerical considerations regarding the constructed operators based on MATLAB algorithms.


Evolution Equations With A Parameter And Application To Transport-Convection Differential Equations, Emile Franc Doungmo Goufo Jan 2017

Evolution Equations With A Parameter And Application To Transport-Convection Differential Equations, Emile Franc Doungmo Goufo

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

We deeply investigate the well-posedness of models taking the form $_0^AD^{\beta }_tu(t) = Au(t),\;\; u(0)= \,f,\;\;\;00$ where $_0^AD^{\beta }_t$ is a derivative with the fractional parameter $\beta$ and $A$ is a closed densely defined operator in a Banach space. We show that, unlike other systems, solutions of our models are not governed by Mittag--Leffler functions and their variants. We extend and adapt Peano's idea to our models and establish conditions for existence and uniqueness of solutions. In particular, relations between the two-parameter solution operator, its resolvent, and its generator are provided; the issue of subordination and prolongation principles are addressed; …


Generalized Trial Equation Method And Its Applications Toduffing And Poisson-Boltzmann Equations, Ali̇ Özyapici Jan 2017

Generalized Trial Equation Method And Its Applications Toduffing And Poisson-Boltzmann Equations, Ali̇ Özyapici

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

The trial equation method, which was proposed by Cheng-Shi Liu, is a very powerful method for solving nonlinear differential equations. After the original trial method, some modified versions of the trial equation method were introduced and applied to some famous nonlinear differential equations. Although each modified trial equation method provides a different perspective, they have some weaknesses according to the given differential equations. This is the main reason for introducing modified trial equation methods. This study aims to define a general representation of trial methods for solving nonlinear differential equations. The generalized trial equation method consists of the simple trial …

Arithmetic Properties Of $\Ell$-Regular Overpartition Pairs, Megadahalli Siddanaika Mahadeva Naika, Chandrappa Shivashankar Jan 2017

Arithmetic Properties Of $\Ell$-Regular Overpartition Pairs, Megadahalli Siddanaika Mahadeva Naika, Chandrappa Shivashankar

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In this paper, we investigate the arithmetic properties of $\ell$-regular overpartition pairs. Let $\overline{B}_{\ell}(n)$ denote the number of $\ell$-regular overpartition pairs of $n$. We will prove the number of Ramanujan-like congruences and infinite families of congruences modulo 3, 8, 16, 36, 48, 96 for $\overline{B}_3(n)$ and modulo 3, 16, 64, 96 for $\overline{B}_4(n)$. For example, we find that for all nonnegative integers $\alpha$ and $n$, $\overline{B}_{3}(3^{\alpha}(3n+2))\equiv 0\pmod{3}$, $\overline{B}_{3}(3^{\alpha}(6n+4))\equiv 0\pmod{3}$, and $\overline{B}_{4}(8n+7)\equiv 0\pmod{64}$.

Generalized Convolution Product For An Integral Transform On A Wiener Space, Byoung Soo Kim, Il Yoo Jan 2017

Generalized Convolution Product For An Integral Transform On A Wiener Space, Byoung Soo Kim, Il Yoo

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

We introduce a generalized convolution product $(F*G)_{\vec\alpha,\vec\beta}$ for integral transform ${\mathcal F}_{\gamma,\eta}$ for functionals defined on $K[0,T]$, the space of complex valued continuous functions on $[0,T]$ that vanish at zero. We study some interesting properties of our generalized convolution product and establish various relationships that exist among the generalized convolution product, the integral transform, and the first variation for functionals defined on $K[0,T]$. We also discuss the associativity of the generalized convolution product.

On $\Lambda$-Perfect Maps, Mehrdad Namdari, Mohammad Ali Siavoshi Jan 2017

On $\Lambda$-Perfect Maps, Mehrdad Namdari, Mohammad Ali Siavoshi

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

$\lambda$-Perfect maps, a generalization of perfect maps (i.e. continuous closed maps with compact fibers) are presented. Using $P_\lambda$-spaces and the concept of $\lambda$-compactness some classical results regarding $\lambda$-perfect maps will be extended. In particular, we show that if the composition $fg$ is a $\lambda$-perfect map where $f,g$ are continuous maps with $fg$ well-defined, then $f,g$ are $\alpha$-perfect and $\beta$-perfect, respectively, on appropriate spaces, where $\alpha, \beta\leq\lambda$.


Cardinal Hermite Interpolant Multiscaling Functions For Solving A Parabolic Inverse Problem, Elmira Ashpazzadeh, Mehrdad Lakestani, Mohsen Razzaghi Jan 2017

Cardinal Hermite Interpolant Multiscaling Functions For Solving A Parabolic Inverse Problem, Elmira Ashpazzadeh, Mehrdad Lakestani, Mohsen Razzaghi

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

An effective method based upon cardinal Hermite interpolant multiscaling functions is proposed for the solution of the one-dimensional parabolic partial differential equation with given initial condition and known boundary conditions and subject to overspecification at a point in the spatial domain. The properties of multiscaling functions are first presented. These properties together with a collocation method are then utilized to reduce the parabolic inverse problem to the solution of algebraic equations. The scheme described is efficient. The numerical results obtained using the present algorithms for test problems show that this method can solve the model effectively.
