Approximate Analytical Solutions Of Space-Fractional Telegraph Equations By Sumudu Adomian Decomposition Method, Hasib Khan, Cemil Tunç, Rahmat A. Khan, Akhtyar G. Shirzoi, Aziz Khan

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

The main goal in this work is to establish a new and efficient analytical scheme for space fractional telegraph equation (FTE) by means of fractional Sumudu decomposition method (SDM). The fractional SDM gives us an approximate convergent series solution. The stability of the analytical scheme is also studied. The approximate solutions obtained by SDM show that the approach is easy to implement and computationally very much attractive. Further, some numerical examples are presented to illustrate the accuracy and stability for linear and nonlinear cases.


Fibonacci And Lucas Differential Equations, Esra Erkus-Duman, Hakan Ciftci 2018 Gazi University

Fibonacci And Lucas Differential Equations, Esra Erkus-Duman, Hakan Ciftci

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

The second-order linear hypergeometric differential equation and the hypergeometric function play a central role in many areas of mathematics and physics. The purpose of this paper is to obtain differential equations and the hypergeometric forms of the Fibonacci and the Lucas polynomials. We also write again these polynomials by means of Olver’s hypergeometric functions. In addition, we present some relations between these polynomials and the other well-known functions.


Thermoelastic Stress Analysis Of A Functionally Graded Transversely Isotropic Hollow Cylinder In Elliptical Coordinates, Tara Dhakate, Vinod Varghese, Lalsingh Khalsa 2018 M.G. College, Armori,

Thermoelastic Stress Analysis Of A Functionally Graded Transversely Isotropic Hollow Cylinder In Elliptical Coordinates, Tara Dhakate, Vinod Varghese, Lalsingh Khalsa

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

This paper is concerned with the axisymmetric thermoelastic problem to investigate the influence of nonlinear heat conduction equation, displacement functions and thermal stresses of a functionally graded transversely isotropic hollow cylinder that is presented in the elliptical coordinate system. The method of integral transform technique is used to produce an exact solution of the heat conduction equation in which sources are generated according to a linear function of the temperature. An explicit exact solution of the governing thermoelastic equation is proposed when material properties are power-law functions with the exponential form of the radial coordinate. Numerical calculations are also carried …

Masked Instability: Within-Sector Financial Risk In The Presence Of Wealth Inequality, Youngna Choi 2018 Montclair State University

Masked Instability: Within-Sector Financial Risk In The Presence Of Wealth Inequality, Youngna Choi

Department of Applied Mathematics and Statistics Faculty Scholarship and Creative Works

We investigate masked financial instability caused by wealth inequality. When an economic sector is decomposed into two subsectors that possess a severe wealth inequality, the sector in entirety can look financially stable while the two subsectors possess extreme financially instabilities of opposite nature, one from excessive equity, the other from lack thereof. The unstable subsector can result in further financial distress and even trigger a financial crisis. The market instability indicator, an early warning system derived from dynamical systems applied to agent-based models, is used to analyze the subsectoral financial instabilities. Detailed mathematical analysis is provided to explain what financial …


Method Of Deriving Companion Identities Associating Q-Series, Keshav P. Yadav, Adarsh Kumar 2018 Veena Memorial Degree College

Method Of Deriving Companion Identities Associating Q-Series, Keshav P. Yadav, Adarsh Kumar

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this paper, we have established two theorems by making use of Euler’s q-derivative and qshifted operators for a function of one variable and also for function of two variables. We derived several companion identities by applying these theorems on some known q-series identities. We deduced several special cases which are also the companion identities in the last section of the paper.


Radial Basis Function Generated Finite Differences For The Nonlinear Schrodinger Equation, Justin Ng 2018 Air Force Institute of Technology

Radial Basis Function Generated Finite Differences For The Nonlinear Schrodinger Equation, Justin Ng

Theses and Dissertations

Solutions to the one-dimensional and two-dimensional nonlinear Schrodinger (NLS) equation are obtained numerically using methods based on radial basis functions (RBFs). Periodic boundary conditions are enforced with a non-periodic initial condition over varying domain sizes. The spatial structure of the solutions is represented using RBFs while several explicit and implicit iterative methods for solving ordinary differential equations (ODEs) are used in temporal discretization for the approximate solutions to the NLS equation. Splitting schemes, integration factors and hyperviscosity are used to stabilize the time-stepping schemes and are compared with one another in terms of computational efficiency and accuracy. This thesis shows …


Ns-Cross Entropy-Based Magdm Under Single-Valued Neutrosophic Set Environment, Florentin Smarandache, Surapati Pramanik, Shyamal Dalapati, Shariful Alam, Tapan Kumar Roy 2018 University of New Mexico

Ns-Cross Entropy-Based Magdm Under Single-Valued Neutrosophic Set Environment, Florentin Smarandache, Surapati Pramanik, Shyamal Dalapati, Shariful Alam, Tapan Kumar Roy

Branch Mathematics and Statistics Faculty and Staff Publications

A single-valued neutrosophic set has king power to express uncertainty characterized by indeterminacy, inconsistency and incompleteness. Most of the existing single-valued neutrosophic cross entropy bears an asymmetrical behavior and produces an undefined phenomenon in some situations. In order to deal with these disadvantages, we propose a new cross entropy measure under a single-valued neutrosophic set (SVNS) environment, namely NS-cross entropy, and prove its basic properties. Also we define weighted NS-cross entropy measure and investigate its basic properties. We develop a novel multi-attribute group decision-making (MAGDM) strategy that is free from the drawback of asymmetrical behavior and undefined phenomena. It is …

Flow Anisotropy Due To Thread-Like Nanoparticle Agglomerations In Dilute Ferrofluids, Alexander Cali, Wah-Keat Lee, A. David Trubatch, Philip Yecko 2017 Montclair State University

Flow Anisotropy Due To Thread-Like Nanoparticle Agglomerations In Dilute Ferrofluids, Alexander Cali, Wah-Keat Lee, A. David Trubatch, Philip Yecko

Department of Applied Mathematics and Statistics Faculty Scholarship and Creative Works

Improved knowledge of the magnetic field dependent flow properties of nanoparticle-based magnetic fluids is critical to the design of biomedical applications, including drug delivery and cell sorting. To probe the rheology of ferrofluid on a sub-millimeter scale, we examine the paths of 550 μm diameter glass spheres falling due to gravity in dilute ferrofluid, imposing a uniform magnetic field at an angle with respect to the vertical. Visualization of the spheres’ trajectories is achieved using high resolution X-ray phase-contrast imaging, allowing measurement of a terminal velocity while simultaneously revealing the formation of an array of long thread-like accumulations of magnetic …

Certain Integrals Associated With The Generalized Bessel-Maitland Function, D. L. Suthar, Hafte Amsalu

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

The aim of this paper is to establish two general finite integral formulas involving the generalized Bessel-Maitland functions Jμ,γν,q (z). The result given in terms of generalized (Wright’s) hypergeometric functions pΨq and generalized hypergeometric functions pFq . These results are obtained with the help of finite integral due to Lavoie and Trottier. Some interesting special cases involving Bessel-Maitland function, Struve’s functions, Bessel functions, generalized Bessel functions, Wright function, generalized Mittag-Leffler functions are deduced.

On Cardinality Bounds Involving The Weak Lindelöf Degree And H-Closed Spaces, Nathan Carlson, Angelo Bella, Jack Porter 2017 California Lutheran University

On Cardinality Bounds Involving The Weak Lindelöf Degree And H-Closed Spaces, Nathan Carlson, Angelo Bella, Jack Porter

Summer Conference on Topology and Its Applications

1. Bella and Carlson give several classes of spaces X for which |X| ≤ 2wL(X)χ(X). This includes locally compact spaces and, more recently, extremally disconnected spaces. Three proofs of the former lead to more general results. One such result is that any regular space X with a π-base consisting of elements with compact closure satisfies |X| ≤ 2wL(X)χ(X). It is also shown that if X is locally compact and power homogeneous that |X| ≤ 2wL(X)t(X), an extension of De la Vega's Theorem.

2. Porter and Carlson give a new cardinality bound for any Hausdorff …


Order, Distance, Closure And Convergence: Reconciling Competing Fundamental Topological Concepts, Walter Tholen 2017 York University

Order, Distance, Closure And Convergence: Reconciling Competing Fundamental Topological Concepts, Walter Tholen

Summer Conference on Topology and Its Applications

Already in Hausdorff’s 1914 book, often considered the cradle of general topology, one finds traces of a discussion on the relative strengths of the concepts mentioned in the title of this talk. In fact, one may argue that Hausdorff anticipated the basic ideas of how to unify these concepts, which were developed only later on by many mathematicians over the course of a century, as propagated in Hofmann, Seal & Tholen. Indeed, Hausdorff thought of ordering points by assigning to every pair of them a (truth) value, just as a metric assigns to them a number. More importantly, he also …

On A Construction Of Some Class Of Metric Spaces, Dariusz Bugajewski 2017 Adam Mickiewicz University of Poznan

On A Construction Of Some Class Of Metric Spaces, Dariusz Bugajewski

Summer Conference on Topology and Its Applications

In this talk we are going to describe Sz´az’s construction of some class of metric spaces. Most of all we will analyze topological properties of metric spaces obtained by using Sz´az’s construction. In particular, we provide necessary and sufficient conditions for completeness of metric spaces obtained in this way. Moreover, we will discuss the relation between Sz´az’s construction and the “linking construction”. A particular attention will be drawn to the “floor” metric, the analysis of which provides some interesting observations.


Balanced And Functionally Balanced P-Groups, Menachem Shlossberg 2017 University of Udine

Balanced And Functionally Balanced P-Groups, Menachem Shlossberg

Summer Conference on Topology and Its Applications

In relation to Itzkowitz's problem, we show that a c-bounded P-group is balanced if and only if it is functionally balanced. We prove that for an arbitrary P-group, being functionally balanced is equivalent to being strongly functionally balanced. A special focus is given to the uniform free topological group defined over a uniform P-space. In particular, we show that this group is (functionally) balanced precisely when its subsets Bn, consisting of words of length at most n, are all (resp., functionally) balanced.
