On Local Hörmander-Beurling Spaces, Jairo Villegas

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In this paper we aim to extend a result of Hörmander's, that \mathcal{B}_{p,k}^{loc}(\Omega)\subset\mathcal{C}^m(\Omega) if \frac{(1+\left \cdot\right )^m}{k}\in L_{p^\prime}, to the setting of vector valued local Hörmander-Beurling spaces, as well as to show that the space \bigcap_{j=1}^\infty\mathcal{B}_{p_j,k_j}^{loc} (\Omega, E) (1\leq p_j\leq\infty, k_j=e^{j\omega}, j=1,2,\dots) is topologically isomorphic to \mathcal{E}_\omega(\Omega, E ). Moreover, it is well known that the union of Sobolev spaces \mathcal{H}_{s}^{loc}(\Omega) (=\mathcal{B}_{2,(1+ \cdot ^2)^{s/2}}^{loc}(\Omega)) coincides with the space \mathcal{D}^{\prime\,F}(\Omega) of finite order distributions on \Omega. We show that this is also verified in the context of vector valued Beurling ultradistributions.

On A Certain Class Of Bessel Integrals, Ali A. Al-Jarrah, A. Al-Momani

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

There are many old results of integrals involving Bessel functions, currently available in handbooks, but we found no recourse in the well-known references to how they were established. In this paper, we attempt to have a clear way of proving some of these results. In fact, we consider a certain class of Bessel integrals where we prove that such integrals vanish under certain conditions. To this end some theorems regarding this class of integrals with their proofs are put forward. A computer algorithm is provided to implement some of our results. The result in this paper extend the work in …

We prove that if G is a periodic group with all subgroups subnormal, and if for every x, y \in G, ^{G} is an FC-group, then G is nilpotent.

Anatomy Of A Chaotic Attractor: Subtle Model-Predicted Patterns Revealed In Population Data, Aaron A. King, R. F. Costantino, J. M. Cushing, Shandelle M. Henson, Robert A. Desharnais, Brian Dennis

Faculty Publications

Mathematically, chaotic dynamics are not devoid of order but display episodes of near-cyclic temporal patterns. This is illustrated, in interesting ways, in the case of chaotic biological populations. Despite the individual nature of organisms and the noisy nature of biological time series, subtle temporal patterns have been detected. By using data drawn from chaotic insect populations, we show quantitatively that chaos manifests itself as a tapestry of identifiable and predictable patterns woven together by stochasticity. We show too that the mixture of patterns an experimentalist can expect to see depends on the scale of the system under study.

Gamma-Set Domination Graphs. I: Complete Biorientations Of Q-Extended Stars And Wounded Spider Graphs, Kim A. S. Factor

Mathematics, Statistics and Computer Science Faculty Research and Publications

The domination number of a graph G, γ(G), and the domination graph of a digraph D, dom(D) are integrated in this paper. The γ-set domination graph of the complete biorientation of a graph G, dom_γ(G) is created. All γ-sets of specific trees T are found, and dom-_γ(T) is characterized for those classes.

A Thermoviscoelastic Beam Model For Brakes, Kenneth Kuttler, J. Bajkowski, J. R. Fernandez, M. Shillor

Faculty Publications

A model for the dynamic thermomechanical behavior of a viscoelastic beam which is in frictional contact with a rigid rotating wheel is presented. It describes a simple braking system in which the wheel comes to a stop as a result of the frictional traction generated by the beam. Friction is modelled with a temperature and slip rate dependent coefficient of friction. Frictional heat generation is taken into account as well as the wheel temperature evolution, and the wear of the beam's contacting end. The model is formulated as a variational inequality. A FEM numerical scheme for the model is described, …

Homology Of Holomorphs Of Free Groups, Craig A. Jensen

Mathematics Faculty Publications

Let Fn be the free group on n letters and let Aut(Fn), Out(Fn) denote the automorphism group and the outer automorphism group of Fn. In this paper the purpose is to obtain some new results on stability and to calculate the mod-p homology of the holomorph of Fn for odd primes in dimensions 1 and 2, and the rational homology in dimensions from 1 through 5.

Automorphisms Of Free Groups With Boundaries, Craig A. Jensen, Nathalie Wahl

Mathematics Faculty Publications

The automorphisms of free groups with boundaries form a family of groups An,k closely related to mapping class groups, with the standard automorphisms of free groups as An,0 and (essentially) the symmetric automorphisms of free groups as A0,k. We construct a contractible space Ln,k on which An,k acts with finite stabilizers and finite quotient space and deduce a range for the virtual cohomological dimension of An,k. We also give a presentation of the groups and calculate their first homology group.

The Growth Of Valuations On Rational Function Fields In Two Variables, Edward Mosteig, Moss Sweedler

Mathematics, Statistics and Data Science Faculty Works

Given a valuation on the function field k( x; y), we examine the set of images of nonzero elements of the underlying polynomial ring k[ x; y] under this valuation. For an arbitrary field k, a Noetherian power series is a map z : Q --> k that has Noetherian (i.e., reverse well-ordered) support. Each Noetherian power series induces a natural valuation on k( x; y). Although the value groups corresponding to such valuations are well-understood, the restrictions of the valuations to underlying polynomial rings have yet to be characterized. Let Lambda(n) denote the images under the valuation v of …

Tree Diagrams For String Links Ii: Determining Chord Diagrams, Blake Mellor

Mathematics, Statistics and Data Science Faculty Works

In previous work, we defined the intersection graph of a chord diagram associated with a string link (as in the theory of finite type invariants). In this paper, we look at the case when this graph is a tree, and we show that in many cases these trees determine the chord diagram (modulo the usual 1-term and 4-term relations).

Higher Dimensional Algebra Vi: Lie 2-Algebra, John C. Baez, Alissa S. Crans

Mathematics, Statistics and Data Science Faculty Works

The theory of Lie algebras can be categorified starting from a new notion of `2-vector space', which we define as an internal category in Vect. There is a 2-category 2Vect having these 2-vector spaces as objects, `linear functors' as morphisms and `linear natural transformations' as 2-morphisms. We define a `semistrict Lie 2-algebra' to be a 2-vector space L equipped with a skew-symmetric bilinear functor [ . , . ] : L x L -> L satisfying the Jacobi identity up to a completely antisymmetric trilinear natural transformation called the `Jacobiator', which in turn must satisfy a certain law of its …

Quantization With Knowledge Base Applied To Geometrical Nesting Problem, Grzegorz Chmaj, Leszek Koszalka

Electrical & Computer Engineering Faculty Research

Nesting algorithms deal with placing two-dimensional shapes on the given canvas. In this paper a binary way of solving the nesting problem is proposed. Geometric shapes are quantized into binary form, which is used to operate on them. After finishing nesting they are converted back into original geometrical form. Investigations showed, that there is a big influence of quantization accuracy for the nesting effect. However, greater accuracy results with longer time of computation. The proposed knowledge base system is able to strongly reduce the computational time.

Smoothing Parameter Selection In Nonparametric Functional Estimation, Mohamed Amezziane

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This study intends to build up new techniques for how to obtain completely data-driven choices of the smoothing parameter in functional estimation, within the confines of minimal assumptions. The focus of the study will be within the framework of the estimation of the distribution function, the density function and their multivariable extensions along with some of their functionals such as the location and the integrated squared derivatives.

Measures Of Concordance Of Polynomial Type, Heather Edwards

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

A measure of concordance, $\kappa$, is of polynomial type if and only if $\kappa (tA+(1-t)B)$ is a polynomial in $t$ where $A$ and $B$ are 2-copulas. The degree of such a type of measure of concordance is simply the highest degree of the polynomial associated with $\kappa$. In previous work [2], [3], properties of measures of concordance preserving convex sums (equivalently measures of concordance of polynomial type degree one) were established; however, a characterization was not made. Here a characterization is made using approximations involving doubly stochastic matrices. Other representations are provided from this characterization leading naturally to two interpretations …
