F–Geometric Mean Graphs, A. D. Baskar, S. Arockiaraj Dec 2015

F–Geometric Mean Graphs, A. D. Baskar, S. Arockiaraj

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In a study of traffic, the labelling problems in graph theory can be used by considering the crowd at every junction as the weights of a vertex and expected average traffic in each street as the weight of the corresponding edge. If we assume the expected traffic at each street as the arithmetic mean of the weight of the end vertices, that causes mean labelling of the graph. When we consider a geometric mean instead of arithmetic mean in a large population of a city, the rate of growth of traffic in each street will be more accurate. The geometric …

In Honor And Memory Of Professor Lajos Takács, Aliakbar M. Haghighi, Sri G. Mohanty

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

This issue of AAM is dedicated to honoring and remembering Professor Lajos Takács. While wrapping up the manuscript of my book (co-authored by Dr. Dimitar Mishev): Delayed and Network Queues, I went back to celebrate his 1962 book, Introduction to the Theory of Queues, where he gives an example illustrating a waiting time paradox, where the waiting time of a passenger waiting for a bus at a bus stop is infinite, while, in reality, he will wait a finite unit of time before a bus arrive. I sent Professor Takács an e-mail on December 4, 2015, inquiring if he had …


Independent Monopoly Size In Graphs, Ahmed M. Naji, N. D. Soner Dec 2015

Independent Monopoly Size In Graphs, Ahmed M. Naji, N. D. Soner

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In a graph G = (V;E), a set D ⊆V (G) is said to be a monopoly set of G if every vertex v ∈V-D has at least d(v)/ 2 neighbors in D. The monopoly size of G, denoted mo(G), is the minimum cardinality of a monopoly set among all monopoly sets in G. The set D ⊆ V (G) is an independent monopoly set in G if it is both a monopoly set and an independent set in G. The number of vertices in a minimum independent monopoly set in a graph G is the independent monopoly size of …

The Shifted Jacobi Polynomial Integral Operational Matrix For Solving Riccati Differential Equation Of Fractional Order, A. Neamaty, B. Agheli, R. Darzi

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this article, we have applied Jacobi polynomial to solve Riccati differential equation of fractional order. To do so, we have presented a general formula for the Jacobi operational matrix of fractional integral operator. Using the Tau method, the solution of this problem reduces to the solution of a system of algebraic equations. The numerical results for the examples presented in this paper demonstrate the efficiency of the present method.

Ulam was the first person who introduced an open question concerning the stability of a group homomorphism in an international conference. Thereafter several researchers have replied and are still replying to this open question in different contexts. …


On The Growth Of Solutions Of The Generalized Axially Symmetric, Reduced Wave Equation In (N + 1) Variables, Devendra Kumar Dec 2015

On The Growth Of Solutions Of The Generalized Axially Symmetric, Reduced Wave Equation In (N + 1) Variables, Devendra Kumar

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this paper we have investigated the growth properties of solutions of the generalized axially symmetric, reduced wave equation in (n + 1) variables. Results analogus to those for order and type found in the theory of entire functions of several complex variables, of solutions, in terms of their expansion coefficients have been obtained. Our study is essential to a detailed understanding of the scattering of waves by central potentials and may be applied for generalized (n + 2)􀀀dimensional problems of potential scattering in quantum mechanics.

The Fuzzy Over-Relaxed Proximal Point Iterative Scheme For Generalized Variational Inclusion With Fuzzy Mappings, Rais Ahmad, Mijanur Rahaman, Haider A. Rizvi

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

This paper deals with the introduction of a fuzzy over-relaxed proximal point iterative scheme based on H(-, -)-cocoercivity framework for solving a generalized variational inclusion problem with fuzzy mappings. The resolvent operator technique is used to approximate the solution of generalized variational inclusion problem with fuzzy mappings and convergence of the iterative sequences generated by the iterative scheme is discussed. Our results can be treated as refinement of many previously-known results.


Numerical Solution Of Linear Fredholm Integro-Differential Equations By Non-Standard Finite Difference Method, Pramod K. Pandey Dec 2015

Numerical Solution Of Linear Fredholm Integro-Differential Equations By Non-Standard Finite Difference Method, Pramod K. Pandey

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this article we consider a non-standard finite difference method for numerical solution of linear Fredholm integro-differential equations. The non-standard finite difference method and the repeated / composite trapezoidal quadrature method are used to transform the Fredholm integro-differential equation into a system of non-linear algebraic equations. The numerical experiments on some linear model problems show the simplicity and efficiency of the proposed method. It is observed from the numerical experiments that our method is convergent and second order accurate.

Solution To Some Open Problems On E-Super Vertex Magic Total Labeling Of Graphs, G. Marimuthu, M. S. Raja Durga, G. D. Devi

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

Let G be a finite graph with p vertices and q edges. A vertex magic total labeling is a bijection f from V(G)∪E(G) to the consecutive integers 1, 2, ..., p+q with the property that for every u∈V(G) , f( u)+ ∑f(uv)=K for some constant k. Such a labeling is E-super if f :E(G)→{1, 2,..., q}. A graph G is called E-super vertex magic if it admits an E-super vertex magic labeling. In this paper, we solve two open problems given by Marimuthu, Suganya, Kalaivani and Balakrishnan (Marimuthu et al., 2015).

Characterization Of Gamma Hemirings By Generalized Fuzzy Gamma Ideals, Muhammad Gulistan, Muhammad Shahzad, Sarfraz Ahmed, Mehwish Ilyas

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

This paper has explored theoretical methods of evaluation in the identification of the boundedness of the generalized fuzzy gamma ideals. A functional approach was used to undertake a characterization of this structure leading to a determination of some interesting gamma hemirings theoretic properties of the generated structures. Gamma hemirings are the generalization of the classical agebraic structure of hemirings. Our aim is to extend this idea and, to introduce the concept of generalized fuzzy gamma ideals, generalized fuzzy prime (semiprime) gamma ideals, generalized fuzzy h -gamma ideals and generalized fuzzy k - gamma ideals of gamma hemirings and related properties …

On Factorization Of A Special Type Of Vandermonde Rhotrix, P. L. Sharma, Satish Kumar, Mansi Rehan

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

Vandermonde matrices have important role in many branches of applied mathematics such as combinatorics, coding theory and cryptography. Some authors discuss the Vandermonde rhotrices in the literature for its mathematical enrichment. Here, we introduce a special type of Vandermonde rhotrix and obtain its LR factorization namely left and right triangular factorization, which is further used to obtain the inverse of the rhotrix.


Combinatorial Identities For Incomplete Tribonacci Polynomials, Mark Shattuck Jun 2015

Combinatorial Identities For Incomplete Tribonacci Polynomials, Mark Shattuck

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

The incomplete tribonacci polynomials, denoted by Tn(s)(x), generalize the usual tribonacci polynomials Tn (x) and have been shown to satisfy several algebraic identities. In this paper, we provide a combinatorial interpretation for Tn(s)(x) in terms of weighted linear tilings involving three types of tiles. This allows one not only to supply combinatorial proofs of earlier identities for Tn(s)(x) but also to derive new ones. In the final section, we provide a formula for the ordinary generating function of the sequence Tn(s)(x) for a fixed s, as previously …
