Tight Bounds For The N2-Chromatic Number Of Graphs, Arnold Eniego, Ian June L. Garces, Jose Rosario 2024 National University

Tight Bounds For The N2-Chromatic Number Of Graphs, Arnold Eniego, Ian June L. Garces, Jose Rosario

Mathematics Faculty Publications

Let G be a connected graph. A vertex coloring of G is an N2-vertex coloring if, for every vertex v, the number of different colors assigned to the vertices adjacent to v is at most two. The N2-chromatic number of G is the maximum number of colors that can be used in an N2vertex coloring of G. In this paper, we establish tight bounds for the N2-chromatic number of a graph in terms of its maximum degree and its diameter, and characterize those graphs that attain these bounds.

Department of Information Systems & Computer Science Faculty Publications

It is already known that the 1-Poset and 2-Poset Cover Problems are in P. In this paper, we extended the previous results and devised an algorithm for the k-Poset Cover Problem, for any k number of posets that cover the input. The algorithm runs in O(m2k n2), where m and n are the input size. With this running time, we can say that the problem belongs to XP (slicewise polynomial). The algorithm runs efficiently for small fixed k but runs exponentially for large k. While the algorithm running time has yet not to be efficient for large k, we have …


An Overview Of The Second-Previous Memory Effect In The Strictlyalternating Donation Game, Mohamed Zayet, Essam El-Seidy, Amira Abdel-Malek, Aya Rabie 2024 The British University in Egypt

An Overview Of The Second-Previous Memory Effect In The Strictlyalternating Donation Game, Mohamed Zayet, Essam El-Seidy, Amira Abdel-Malek, Aya Rabie

Basic Science Engineering

Game theory delves into the examination of strategic behaviour across diverse domains such as insurance, business, military, biology, andmore,with the aim of deriving optimal decisions. Recent research focusing on the alteration of memory in the donation game with simultaneous iterated rounds has spurred our interest in investigating this phenomenon within the realm of the strictly alternating donation game. This study proposes a novel decision-making approach, utilising the previous unit instead of the most recent one.

Mathematics and Computer Studies: Faculty Publications

Cryptography secures data and serves to ensure the confidentiality of records. Playfair is a cryptographic symmetrical algorithm that encrypts statistics based on key costs. This secret is shared with an authorized person to retrieve data. In the conventional pattern, there is an area complexity and deficiency in letters, numbers, and special characters. This hassle has been overcome in previous studies by editing pattern dimensions. The fillers used throughout the enciphering were not eliminated during the retrieval process, which resulted in the indiscrimination of the retrieved statistics. The proposed method uses a separate quadrate pattern that strengthens the Playfair cipher and …


New Effective Transformational Computational Methods, Jun Zhang, Ruzong Fan, Fangyang Shen, Junyi Tu 2024 University of Maryland Eastern Shore

New Effective Transformational Computational Methods, Jun Zhang, Ruzong Fan, Fangyang Shen, Junyi Tu

Publications and Research

Mathematics serves as a fundamental intelligent theoretic basis for computation, and mathematical analysis is very useful to develop computational methods to solve various problems in science and engineering. Integral transforms such as Laplace Transform have been playing an important role in computational methods. In this paper, we will introduce Sumudu Transform in a new computational approach, in which effective computational methods will be developed and implemented. Such computational methods are straightforward to understand, but powerful to incorporate into computational science to solve different problems automatically. We will provide computational analysis and essentiality by surveying and summarizing some related recent works, …


New Algorithmic Support For The Fundamental Theorem Of Algebra, Vitaly Zaderman 2024 CUNY Graduate Center

New Algorithmic Support For The Fundamental Theorem Of Algebra, Vitaly Zaderman

Dissertations, Theses, and Capstone Projects

Univariate polynomial root-finding is a venerated subjects of Mathematics and Computational Mathematics studied for four millenia. In 1924 Herman Weyl published a seminal root-finder and called it an algorithmic proof of the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra. Steve Smale in 1981 and Arnold Schonhage in 1982 proposed to classify such algorithmic proofs in terms of their computational complexity. This prompted extensive research in 1980s and 1990s, culminated in a divide-and-conquer polynomial root-finder by Victor Pan at ACM STOC 1995, which used a near optimal number of bit-operations. The algorithm approximates all roots of a polynomial p almost as fast as one …


Low Shear In Short-Term Impacts Endothelial Cell Traction And Alignment In Long-Term, Mohanish Chandurkar, Nikhil Mittal, Shaina P. Royer-Weeden, Steven D. Lehmann, Yeonwoo Rho, Sangyoon J. Han 2024 Michigan Technological University

Low Shear In Short-Term Impacts Endothelial Cell Traction And Alignment In Long-Term, Mohanish Chandurkar, Nikhil Mittal, Shaina P. Royer-Weeden, Steven D. Lehmann, Yeonwoo Rho, Sangyoon J. Han

Michigan Tech Publications

Within the vascular system, endothelial cells (ECs) are exposed to fluid shear stress (FSS), a mechanical force exerted by blood flow that is critical for regulating cellular tension and maintaining vascular homeostasis. The way ECs react to FSS varies significantly; while high, laminar FSS supports vasodilation and suppresses inflammation, low or disturbed FSS can lead to endothelial dysfunction and increase the risk of cardiovascular diseases. Yet, the adaptation of ECs to dynamically varying FSS remains poorly understood. This study focuses on the dynamic responses of ECs to brief periods of low FSS, examining its impact on endothelial traction-a measure of …

Hypatia's Math: A Play, Daniel S. Helman 2024 Wofford College

Hypatia's Math: A Play, Daniel S. Helman

Journal of Humanistic Mathematics

Hypatia of Alexandria was the most famous woman mathematician of antiquity, and her story is as relevant now as it was in her day. This play tells her story. While the events in the play are based closely on extant historical texts, inspiring excerpts from classical works by Porphyry, Plotinus, Aristotle and Plato are woven into the action to further the plot and add to the classical mood. Dance and music, including an Homeric hymn, add to the artistic texture.

A Personal And Multicultural Journey Through The World Of Games (With A Little Math) Or Book Review: Around The World In Eighty Games, By Marcus Du Sautoy, Karl-Dieter Crisman 2024 Gordon College

A Personal And Multicultural Journey Through The World Of Games (With A Little Math) Or Book Review: Around The World In Eighty Games, By Marcus Du Sautoy, Karl-Dieter Crisman

Journal of Humanistic Mathematics

Author and number theorist Marcus Du Sautoy has written a book about games, including a light dose of mathematics. In it, he journeys through far more than (his choice of) eighty of “the world’s greatest games”, laying out a charming voyage through many lands. Despite some reservations, this reviewer finds that Around the World in Eighty Games is well-written and quite fascinating, largely due to its idiosyncratic, personal nature.

This one, Route 3.141592, is the route of mathematics and the science that depends on mathematics.


Hockey Card Statistics Are Stagnant And Stale, Egan J. Chernoff 2024 University of Saskatchewan

Hockey Card Statistics Are Stagnant And Stale, Egan J. Chernoff

Journal of Humanistic Mathematics

The purchase of a coffee at a Canadian institution, Tim Hortons, turned into an informal investigation into hockey card statistics. Turns out, hockey card statistics are stagnant and stale. This was disappointing to see because the game of hockey has changed, the statistics used to keep track of the game have changed. Even the cards have changed. Well, not the back of the cards, which do not well enough paint a statistical picture of the hockey player photographed on the front of the card.
