Integral And Homothetic Indecomposability With Applications To Irreducibility Of Polynomials, Fati̇h Koyuncu, Ferruh Özbudak Jan 2009

Integral And Homothetic Indecomposability With Applications To Irreducibility Of Polynomials, Fati̇h Koyuncu, Ferruh Özbudak

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

Being motivated by some methods for construction of homothetically indecomposable polytopes, we obtain new methods for construction of families of integrally indecomposable polytopes. As a result, we find new infinite families of absolutely irreducible multivariate polynomials over any field F. Moreover, we provide different proofs of some of the main results of Gao [2].

Trace Classes And Fixed Points For The Extended Modular Group \Overline{\Gamma}, Özden Koruoğlu, Recep Şahi̇n, Sebahatti̇n İki̇kardeş

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

The extended modular group \overline{\Gamma}=PGL(2,\mathbb{Z}) is the group obtained by adding the reflection R(z)=1/\overline{z} to the generators of the modular group \Gamma =PSL(2, {Z}). In this paper, we find the trace classes of the extended modular group \overline{\Gamma}. Using this, we classify the elements of \overline{\Gamma}.


On The Regular Elements In Z_N, Osama Alkam, Emad Abu Osba Jan 2008

On The Regular Elements In Z_N, Osama Alkam, Emad Abu Osba

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

All rings are assumed to be finite commutative with identity element. An element a \in R is called a regular element if there exists b \in R such that a=a^2b, the element b is called a von Neumann inverse for a. A characterization is given for regular elements and their inverses in Z_n, the ring of integers modulo n. The arithmetic function V(n), which counts the regular elements in Z_n is studied. The relations between V(n) and Euler's phi-function \varphi (n) are explored.


Linear Connections On Light-Like Manifolds, Teki̇n Dereli̇, Şahi̇n Koçak, Murat Li̇moncu Jan 2008

Linear Connections On Light-Like Manifolds, Teki̇n Dereli̇, Şahi̇n Koçak, Murat Li̇moncu

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

It is well-known that a torsion-free linear connection on a light-like manifold (M,g) compatible with the degenerate metric g exists if and only if Rad(TM) is a Killing distribution. In case of existence, there is an infinitude of connections with none distinguished. We propose a method to single out connections with the help of a special set of 1-forms by the condition that the 1-forms become parallel with respect to this connection. Such sets of 1-forms could be regarded as an additional structure imposed upon the light-like manifold. We consider also connections with torsion and with non-metricity on light-like manifolds.


A Decomposition Method For Solving Unsteady Convection-Diffusion Problems, Shaher Momani Jan 2008

A Decomposition Method For Solving Unsteady Convection-Diffusion Problems, Shaher Momani

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In this study, a decomposition method for approximating the solutions of unsteady convection-diffusion problems is implemented. The approximate solution is calculated in the form of a convergent series with easily computable components. The calculations are accelerated by using the noise terms phenomenon for nonhomogeneous problems. Numerical examples are investigated to illustrate the pertinent features of the proposed algorithm.


Mirror Principle For Flag Manifolds, Vehbi̇ Emrah Paksoy Jan 2008

Mirror Principle For Flag Manifolds, Vehbi̇ Emrah Paksoy

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In this paper, using mirror principle developped by Lian, Liu and Yau [8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13] we obtained the A and B series for the equivariant tangent bundles over homogenous spaces using Chern polynomial. This is necessary to obtain related cohomology valued series for given arbitrary vector bundle and multiplicative characteristic class. Moreover, this can be used as a valuable testing ground for the theories which associates quantum cohomologies and J functions of non-abelian quotient to abelian quotients via quantization.


Mixed Type Of Integral Equation With Potential Kernel, Mohamed Abdella A. Abdou, Gamal Mohamed Abd Al-Kader Jan 2008

Mixed Type Of Integral Equation With Potential Kernel, Mohamed Abdella A. Abdou, Gamal Mohamed Abd Al-Kader

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

This paper presents the solution of an integral equation of a mixed type in three-dimensions in the space L_2 (\Omega) \times C[0,T], where T < \infty, and \Omega is the domain of integration with respect to position. The kernel of position integral term is considered in the potential function form, while the kernel of time is considered as a continuous kernel. A linear system of Fredholm integral equations of the first and second kinds are obtained and solved. Krein's method is used to solve the Fredholm integral equation of the first kind, while the second kind is solved numerically.

Cover For Modules And Injective Modules, N. Amiri Jan 2008

Cover For Modules And Injective Modules, N. Amiri

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

Let R be a commutative ring with identity and M be an R-module with Spec(M) \neq \phi. A cover of the R-submodule K of M is a subset C of Spec(M) satisfying that for any x \in K, x \neq 0, there is N \in C such that ann(x) \subset (N:M). If we denote by J = \bigcap_{N \in C} (N:M) and assume that M is finitely generated, then JM=M implies that M=0, M is called C-injective provided each R-homomorphism \phi : (N:M) \rightarrow M with N \in C can be lifted to an R-homomorphism \lambda : R \rightarrow M. …

Real Gromov-Witten Invariants On The Moduli Space Of Genus 0 Stable Maps To A Smooth Rational Projective Space, Seongchun Kwon

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

We characterize transversality, non-transversality properties on the moduli space of genus 0 stable maps to a rational projective surface. If a target space is equipped with a real structure, i.e, anti-holomorphic involution, then the results have real enumerative applications. Firstly, we can define a real version of Gromov-Witten invariants. Secondly, we can prove the invariance of Welschinger's invariant in algebraic geometric category.

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

Let X be a Banach space and let (I,\Omega ,\mu) be a measure space. For 1 \leq p < \infty, let L^p(I,X) denote the space of Bochner p-integrable functions defined on I with values in X. The object of this paper is to give sufficient conditions for the proximinality of L^1(I,H)+L^1(I,G) in L^1(I,X), where H and G are two proximinal subspaces of X which include as a special case the proximality of L^1(I) \stackrel{\wedge}{\otimes} G + H \stackrel{\wedge}{\otimes} L^1(I) in L^1(I \times I).

Metric Trees, Hyperconvex Hulls And Extensions, Asuman G. Aksoy, B. Maurizi

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In this paper we examine the relationship between hyperconvex hulls and metric trees. After providing a linking construction for hyperconvex spaces, we show that the four-point property is inherited by the hyperconvex hull, which leads to the theorem that every complete metric tree is hyperconvex. We also consider some extension theorems for these spaces.

On Certain Type Of Modular Sequence Spaces, Manjul Gupta, Shesadev Pradhan Jan 2008

On Certain Type Of Modular Sequence Spaces, Manjul Gupta, Shesadev Pradhan

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In this paper we consider a particular type of modular sequence spaces defined with the help of a given sequence \alpha = {\alpha_n} of strictly positive real numbers \alpha_n's and an Orlicz function M. Indeed, if we define M_n(x) = M(\alpha_nx) and \tildeM_n(x)=M(x/\alpha_n), x\in[0, \infty), we consider the modular sequence spaces l{M_n} and l{\tildeM_n}, denoted by l_M^{\alpha} and l_{\alpha}^M respectively. These are known to be BK-spaces and if M satisfies \Delta_2-condition, they are AK-spaces as well. However, if we consider the spaces l_{\alpha}^M and l_n^{\alpha} corresponding to two complementary Orlicz functions M and N satisfying \Delta_2-condition, they are perfect sequence …

Killing And Geodesic Lightlike Hypersurfaces Of Indefinite Sasakian Manifolds, Fortune Massamba Jan 2008

Killing And Geodesic Lightlike Hypersurfaces Of Indefinite Sasakian Manifolds, Fortune Massamba

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In this paper, we study a lightlike hypersurface of indefinite Sasakian manifold, tangent to the structure vector field \xi. Theorems on parallel and Killing distributions are obtained. Necessary and sufficient conditions have been given for lightlike hypersurface to be mixed totally geodesic, D-totally geodesic, D\perp-totally geodesic and D'-totally geodesic. We prove that, if the screen distribution of lightlike hypersurface M of indefinite Sasakian manifold is totally umbilical, the D\perp-geodesibility of M is equivalent to the D\perp-parallelism of the distribution T M^\perp of rank 1 (Theorem \ref{Theoscre}). Finally, we give the D\perp-version (Theorem 4.22) of the Theorem 2.2 ([11], page 88).

Rickart-Type Annihilator Conditions On Formal Power Series, Ebrahim Hashemi

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

Let R be an \alpha-rigid ring and R_0[[x;\alpha]] be the nearring of a formal skew power series in which addition and substitution are used as operations. It is shown that R is Rickart and any countable family of idempotents of R has a join in I(R) if and only if R_0[[x;\alpha]]\in R_{r1} if and only if R_0[[x;\alpha]]\in R_{\ell 1} if and only if R_0[[x;\alpha]]\in qR_{r2}. An example to show that, \alpha-rigid condition on R is not superfluous, is provided.

Dual Quaternions In Spatial Kinematics In An Algebraic Sense, Bedi̇a Akyar

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

This paper presents the finite spatial displacements and spatial screw motions by using dual quaternions and Hamilton operators. The representations are considered as 4 \times 4 matrices and the relative motion for three dual spheres is considered in terms of Hamilton operators for a dual quaternion. The relation between Hamilton operators and the transformation matrix has been given in a different way. By considering operations on screw motions, representation of spatial displacements is also given.
