On The Socles Of Fully Inert Subgroups Of Abelian P-Groups, Andrey R. Chekhlov, Peter V. Danchev, Brendan Goldsmith

Articles

We define the so-called fully inert socle-regular and weakly fully inert socle-regular Abelian p-groups and study them with respect to certain of their numerous interesting properties. For instance, we prove that in the case of groups of length ! these two group classes coincide but that in the case of groups of length ! + 1 they differ. Some structural and characterization results are also obtained. The work generalizes concepts which have been of interest recently in the theory of entropy in algebra and builds on recent investigations by the second and third named authors in Arch. Math. Basel (2009) …

Ideal Theory In Bck/Bci-Algebras In The Frame Of Hesitant Fuzzy Set Theory, G. Muhiuddin, Habib Harizavi, Young Bae Jun

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

Several generalizations and extensions of fuzzy sets have been introduced in the literature, for example, Atanassov’s intuitionistic fuzzy sets, type 2 fuzzy sets and fuzzy multisets, etc. Using the Torra’s hesitant fuzzy sets, the notions of Sup-hesitant fuzzy ideals in BCK/BCI-algebras are introduced, and its properties are investigated. Relations between Sup-hesitant fuzzy subalgebras and Sup-hesitant fuzzy ideals are displayed, and characterizations of Sup-hesitant fuzzy ideals are discussed.

On The Qualitative Analysis Of Volterra Iddes With Infinite Delay, Osman Tunç, Erdal Korkmaz, Özkan Atan

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

This investigation deals with a nonlinear Volterra integro-differential equation with infinite retardation (IDDE).We will prove three new results on the stability, uniformly stability (US) and square integrability (SI) of solutions of that IDDE. The proofs of theorems rely on the use of an appropriate Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional (LKF). By the outcomes of this paper, we generalize and obtain some former results in mathematical literature under weaker conditions.

Variants Of Meir-Keeler Fixed Point Theorem And Applications Of Soft Set-Valued Maps, Akbar Azam, Mohammed Shehu Shagari

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this paper, we prove a Meir-Keeler type common fixed point theorem for two mappings for which the range set of the first one is a family of soft sets, called soft set-valued map and the second is a point-to-point mapping. In addition, it is also shown that under some suitable conditions, a soft set-valued map admits a selection having a unique fixed point. In support of the obtained result, nontrivial examples are provided. The novelty of the presented idea herein is that it extends the Meir-Keeler fixed point theorem and the theory of selections for multivalued mappings from the …

On Geometry Of Spherical Image In Minkowski Space-Time With Timelike Type-2 Parallel Transport Frame, Solouma Solouma, Ibrahim Al-Dayel

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this paper, we investigate a different type of the parallel transport frame in 3-dimensional Minkowski space R^3_1 by using the binormal vector field of a timelike regular curve as common vector field to introduce, and we recall this frame as " timelike type-2 parallel transport frame". Also, we present new spherical images and call them as timelike type-2 parallel transport spherical images by translating the induced frame vectors to the center of unit Lorentzian sphere in 3-dimensional Minkowski space R^3_1. Additionally, we obtain the Frenet apparatus of these new spherical images in terms of base curves timelike type-2 parallel …

Our results improve the various results shown in the literature.

Numerical Simulation For Solving Fractional Riccati And Logistic Differential Equations As A Difference Equation, M. M. Khader, N. H. Sweilam, B. N. Kharrat

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this paper, we introduce a numerical treatment using the generalized Euler method (GEM) for the fractional (Caputo sense) Riccati and Logistic differential equations. In the proposed method, we invert the given model as a difference equation. We compare our numerical solutions with the exact solution and with those numerical solutions using the fourth-order Runge-Kutta method (RK4). The obtained numerical results of the two proposed problem models show the simplicity and efficiency of the proposed method.

Logarithmic Mean Labeling Of Some Ladder Related Graphs, A. Durai Baskar

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In general, the logarithmic mean of two positive integers need not be an integer. Hence, the logarithmic mean is to be an integer; we use either flooring or ceiling function. The logarithmic mean labeling of graphs have been defined in which the edge labels may be assigned by either flooring function or ceiling function. In this, we establish the logarithmic mean labeling on graphs by considering the edge labels obtained only from the flooring function. A logarithmic mean labeling of a graph G with q edges is an injective function from the vertex set of G to 1, 2, 3,..., …

Twin Edge Coloring Of Total Graph And Graphs With Twin Chromatic Index 𝚫+𝟐, S. Anantharaman

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

A twin edge coloring of a graph G is meant a proper edge coloring of G whose colors come from the integers modulo k that induce a proper vertex coloring in which the color of a vertex is the sum of the colors of its incident edges. The minimum k for which G has a twin edge coloring is the twin chromatic index of G. In this paper, I compute twin chromatic index of total graph of path and cycle also construct some special graphs with twin chromatic index is maximum degree plus two.

Concerning A Decision-Diagram-Based Solution To The Generalized Directed Rural Postman Problem, Renzo Roel P. Tan, Jun Kawahara, Kazushi Ikeda, Agnes Garciano, Kyle Stephen S. See

Mathematics Faculty Publications

Decision-diagram-based solutions for discrete optimization have been persistently studied. Among these is the use of the zero-suppressed binary decision diagram, a compact graph-based representation for a specified family of sets. Such a diagram may work out combinatorial problems by efficient enumeration. In brief, an extension to the frontierbased search approach for zero-suppressed binary decision diagram construction is proposed. The modification allows for the inclusion of a class-determined constraint in formulation. Variations of the generalized directed rural postman problem, proven to be nondeterministic polynomial-time hard, are solved on some rapid transit systems as illustration. Lastly, results are juxtaposed against standard integer …

Characterizing Quantum Physics Students’ Conceptual And Procedural Knowledge Of The Characteristic Equation, Kaitlyn Stephens Serbin, Brigitte Johana Sánchez Robayo, Julia Victoria Truman, Kevin Lee Watson, Megan Wawro

School of Mathematical & Statistical Sciences Faculty Publications

Research on student understanding of eigentheory in linear algebra has expanded recently, yet few studies address student understanding of the Characteristic Equation. In this study, we explore quantum physics students’ conceptual and procedural knowledge of deriving and using the Characteristic Equation. We developed the Conceptual and Procedural Knowledge framework for classifying the quality of students’ conceptual and procedural knowledge of both deriving and using the Characteristic Equation along a continuum. Most students exhibited deeper conceptual and procedural knowledge of using the Characteristic Equation than of deriving the Characteristic Equation. Furthermore, most students demonstrated deeper procedural knowledge than conceptual knowledge of …

Minimal Surfaces And The Weierstrass-Enneper Representation, Evan Snyder

Electronic Theses, Projects, and Dissertations

The field of minimal surfaces is an intriguing study, not only because of the exotic structures that these surfaces admit, but also for the deep connections among various mathematical disciplines. Minimal surfaces have zero mean curvature, and their parametrizations are usually quite complicated and nontrivial. It was shown however, that these exotic surfaces can easily be constructed from a careful choice of complex-valued functions, using what is called the Weierstrass-Enneper Representation.

In this paper, we develop the necessary tools to study minimal surfaces. We will prove some classical theorems and solve an interesting problem that involves ruled surfaces. We will …

Dna Complexes Of One Bond-Edge Type, Andrew Tyler Lavengood-Ryan

Electronic Theses, Projects, and Dissertations

DNA self-assembly is an important tool used in the building of nanostructures and targeted virotherapies. We use tools from graph theory and number theory to encode the biological process of DNA self-assembly. The principal component of this process is to examine collections of branched junction molecules, called pots, and study the types of structures that such pots can realize. In this thesis, we restrict our attention to pots which contain identical cohesive-ends, or a single bond-edge type, and we demonstrate the types and sizes of structures that can be built based on a single characteristic of the pot that is …

Exploring Matroid Minors, Jonathan Lara Tejeda

Electronic Theses, Projects, and Dissertations

Matroids are discrete mathematical objects that generalize important concepts of independence arising in other areas of mathematics. There are many different important classes of matroids and a frequent problem in matroid theory is to determine whether or not a given matroid belongs to a certain class of matroids. For special classes of matroids that are minor-closed, this question is commonly answered by determining a complete list of matroids that are not in the class but have the property that each of their proper minors is in the class; that is, minor-minimal matroids that are not in the minor-closed class. These …

The Weibull Topp-Leone Generated Family Of Distributions: Statistical Properties And Applications, Hamid Karamikabir, Mahmoud Afshari, Haitham M. Yousof, Morad Alizadeh, Gholamhossein G. Hamedani

Mathematical and Statistical Science Faculty Research and Publications

Statistical distributions are very useful in describing and predicting real world phenomena. Consequently, the choice of the most suitable statistical distribution for modeling given data is very important. In this paper, we propose a new class of lifetime distributions called the Weibull Topp-Leone Generated (WTLG) family. The proposed family is constructed via compounding the Weibull and the Topp-Leone distributions. It can provide better fits and is very flexible in comparison with the various known lifetime distributions. Several general statistical properties of the WTLG family are studied in details including density and hazard shapes, limit behavior, mixture representation, skewness and kurtosis, …

Translation Distance And Fibered 3-Manifolds, Alexander J. Stas

Dissertations, Theses, and Capstone Projects

A 3-manifold is said to be fibered if it is homeomorphic to a surface bundle over the circle. For a cusped, hyperbolic, fibered 3-manifold M, we study an invariant of the mapping class of a surface homeomorphism called the translation distance in the arc complex and its relation with essential surfaces in M. We prove that the translation distance of the monodromy of M can be bounded above by the Euler characteristic of an essential surface. For one-cusped, hyperbolic, fibered 3-manifolds, the monodromy can also be bounded above by a linear function of the genus of an essential …

Averages And Nonvanishing Of Central Values Of Triple Product L-Functions Via The Relative Trace Formula, Bin Guan

Dissertations, Theses, and Capstone Projects

Harris and Kudla (2004) proved a conjecture of Jacquet, that the central value of a triple product L-function does not vanish if and only if there exists a quaternion algebra over which a period integral of three corresponding automorphic forms does not vanish. Moreover, Gross and Kudla (1992) established an explicit identity relating central L-values and period integrals (which are finite sums in their case), when the cusp forms are of prime levels and weight 2. Böcherer, Schulze-Pillot (1996) and Watson (2002) generalized this identity to more general levels and weights, and Ichino (2008) proved an adelic period formula which …

Universal Constraints Of Kleinian Groups And Hyperbolic Geometry, Hala Alaqad

Dissertations

Recent advances in geometry have shown the wide application of hyperbolic geometry not only in Mathematics but also in real-world applications. As in two dimensions, it is now clear that most three-dimensional objects (configuration spaces and manifolds) are modelled on hyperbolic geometry. This point of view explains a great many things from large-scale cosmological phenomena, such as the shape of the universe, right down to the symmetries of groups and geometric objects, and various physical theories. Kleinian groups are basically discrete groups of isometries associated with tessellations of hyperbolic space. They form the fundamental groups of hyperbolic manifolds. Over the …

Structure For Regular Inclusions. Ii Cartan Envelopes, Pseudo-Expectations And Twists, David R. Pitts

Department of Mathematics: Faculty Publications

We introduce the notion of a Cartan envelope for a regular inclusion (C,Ɗ). When a Cartan envelope exists, it is the unique, minimal Cartan pair into which (C,Ɗ) regularly embeds. We prove a Cartan envelope exists if and only if (C,Ɗ) has the unique faithful pseudo-expectation property and also give a characterization of the Cartan envelope using the ideal intersection property.

For any covering inclusion, we construct a Hausdorff twisted groupoid using appropriate linear functionals and we give a description of the Cartan envelope for (C,Ɗ) in terms of a twist …

Expected Resurgence Of Ideals Defining Gorenstein Rings, Eloísa Grifo, Craig Huneke, Vivek Mukundan

Department of Mathematics: Faculty Publications

Building on previous work by the same authors, we show that certain ideals defining Gorenstein rings have expected resurgence, and thus satisfy the stable Harbourne Conjecture. In prime characteristic, we can take any radical ideal defining a Gorenstein ring in a regular ring, provided its symbolic powers are given by saturations with the maximal ideal. While this property is not suitable for reduction to characteristic p, we show that a similar result holds in equicharacteristic 0 under the additional hypothesis that the symbolic Rees algebra of I is noetherian.

Realizations Of Holomorphic And Slice Hyperholomorphic Functions: The Krein Space Case, Daniel Alpay, Fabrizio Colombo, Irene Sabadini

Mathematics, Physics, and Computer Science Faculty Articles and Research

In this paper we treat realization results for operator-valued functions which are analytic in the complex sense or slice hyperholomorphic over the quaternions. In the complex setting, we prove a realization theorem for an operator-valued function analytic in a neighborhood of the origin with a coisometric state space operator thus generalizing an analogous result in the unitary case. A main difference with previous works is the use of reproducing kernel Krein spaces. We then prove the counterpart of this result in the quaternionic setting. The present work is the first paper which presents a realization theorem with a state space …

Derivable Single Valued Neutrosophic Graphs Based On Km-Fuzzy Metric, Florentin Smarandache, Mohammad Hamidi

Branch Mathematics and Statistics Faculty and Staff Publications

In this paper we consider the concept of KM-fuzzy metric spaces and we introduce a novel concept of KM-single valued neutrosophic metric graphs based on KM-fuzzy metric spaces. Then we investigate the finite KM-fuzzy metric spaces with respect to KM-fuzzy metrics and we construct the KMfuzzy metric spaces on any given non-empty sets. We try to extend the concept of KM-fuzzy metric spaces to a larger class of KM-fuzzy metric spaces such as union and product of KM-fuzzy metric spaces and in this regard we investigate the class of products of KM-single valued neutrosophic metric graphs. In the final, we …

Level 17 Ramanujan-Sato Series, Timothy Huber, Daniel Schultz, Dongxi Ye

School of Mathematical & Statistical Sciences Faculty Publications

Two level 17 modular functions r=q2∏n=1∞(1−qn)(n17),s=q2∏n=1∞(1−q17n)3(1−qn)3 are used to construct a new class of Ramanujan–Sato series for 1/π. The expansions are induced by modular identities similar to those level of 5 and 13 appearing in Ramanujan’s Notebooks. A complete list of rational and quadratic series corresponding to singular values of the parameters is derived.

Mathematical Modeling Of Nonlinear Blood Glucose-Insulin Dynamics With Beta Cells Effect, Gabriela Urbina, Daniel N. Riahi, Dambaru Bhatta

School of Mathematical & Statistical Sciences Faculty Publications

We consider mathematical modeling of blood glucose-insulin regulatory system with the additional effect of the secreted insulin by the pancreatic beta cells and in the presence of an external energy input to such system. Such modeling system is investigated to determine the time-dependent nonlinear dynamics that take place by the quantities, which represent the glucose and insulin concentrations in the blood, insulin action as well as in the absence or presence of secreted insulin due to the pancreatic beta cells. Using both analytical and numerical procedures, we determine such quantities versus time for both diabetes patients and normal human and …
