On 2 Nonsplit Extension Groups Associated With Hs And Hs:2, Jamshid Moori, Thekiso Seretlo
Turkish Journal of Mathematics
The group HS:2 is the full automorphism group of the Higman--Sims group HS. The groups 2^{4.}S_6 and 2^{5.}S_6 are maximal subgroups of HS and HS:2, respectively. The group 2^{4.}S_6 is of order 11520 and 2^{5.}S_6 is of order 23040 and each of them is of index 3 850 in HS and HS:2, respectively. The aim of this paper is to first construct \overline{G} = 2^{5.}S_6 as a group of the form 2^{4.}S_6.2 (that is, \overline{G} = G_1.2) and then compute the character tables of these 2 nonsplit extension groups by using the method of Fischer--Clifford theory. We will show that …

On Finsler Metrics With Vanishing S-Curvature, Akbar Tayebi, Hassan Sadeghi, Esmaeil Peyghan
Turkish Journal of Mathematics
In this paper, we consider Finsler metrics defined by a Riemannian metric and a 1-form on a manifold. We study these metrics with vanishing S-curvature. We find some conditions under which such a Finsler metric is Berwaldian or locally Minkowskian.

Conformally Parallel Spin(7) Structures On Solvmanifolds, Selman Uğuz
Turkish Journal of Mathematics
In this paper we review the Spin(7) geometry in relation to solvmanifolds. Starting from a 7-dimensional nilpotent Lie group N endowed with an invariant G_2 structure, we present an example of a homogeneous conformally parallel Spin(7) metric on an associated solvmanifold. It is thought that this paper could lead to very interesting and exciting areas of research and new results in the direction of (locally conformally) parallel Spin(7) structures.

Geometry Of Almost Cliffordian Manifolds: Classes Of Subordinated Connections, Jaroslav Hrdina, Petr Vasik
Turkish Journal of Mathematics
An almost Clifford and an almost Cliffordian manifold is a G--structure based on the definition of Clifford algebras. An almost Clifford manifold based on O:= Cl (s,t) is given by a reduction of the structure group GL(km, R) to GL(m, O), where k=2^{s+t} and m \in N. An almost Cliffordian manifold is given by a reduction of the structure group to GL(m, O) GL(1, O). We prove that an almost Clifford manifold based on O is such that there exists a unique subordinated connection, while the case of an almost Cliffordian manifold based on O is more rich. A class …

On The Modelling Of Tsunami Generation And Tsunami Inundation, Frédéric Dias, Denys Dutykh, Laura Cooke, Emiliano Renzi, Themistoklis Stefanakis
Conference papers
While the propagation of tsunamis is well understood and well simulated by numerical models, there are still a number of unanswered questions related to the generation of tsunamis or the subsequent inundation. We review some of the basic generation mechanisms as well as their simulation. In particular, we present a simple and computationally inexpensive model that describes the seabed displacement during an underwater earthquake. This model is based on the finite fault solution for the slip distribution under some assumptions on the kinematics of the rupturing process. We also consider an unusual source for tsunami generation: the sinking of a …

The Effects Of Math Anxiety On Mathematical Academic Success During The Freshman Year, Jennifer Brown
Faculty Bibliography
Math anxiety is a reoccurring problem for many students, and the effects of this anxiety on college students is increasing. The purpose of this study was to examine the association between pre-enrollment math anxiety, standardized test scores, math placement scores, and academic success during freshman math coursework (i.e., pre-algebra, college algebra, and math modeling). The researchers conducted an exploratory observational study using pre-existing data from the Freshman Orientation Survey, which contained the 9-item Abbreviated Math Anxiety Scale, and institutional research data. The sample included 180 freshmen students at a university in the southeastern United States. A series of descriptive and …

Each year around the first week of September, NFL fans are fulfilled with the familiar emotions of watching their team compete for the ultimate prize: Fantasy League Championship. No, the NFL did not rename the Super Bowl. To some, this prize is even more personal than if your favorite childhood NFL team were to win the big game in February. To put it simply, the popularity of fantasy football has grown tremendously over time and the opportunity to best your friends, family, coworkers, whomever it may be that attempts to create the greatest fantasy football roster of all time, absolutely …

Mechanical Visualization Of A Second Order Dynamic Equation On Varying Time Scales, Molly Kathryn Peterson
Theses, Dissertations and Capstones
In this work, we give an introduction to Time Scales Calculus, the properties of the exponential function on an arbitrary time scale, and use it to solve linear dynamic equation of second order. Time Scales Calculus was introduced by Stefan Hilger in 1988. It brings together the theories of difference and differential equations into one unified theory. By using the properties of the delta derivative and the delta anti-derivative, we analyze the behavior of a second order linear homogeneous dynamic equation on various time scales. After the analytical discussion, we will graphically evaluate the second order dynamic equation in Marshall’s …

Computing Local Constants For Cm Elliptic Curves, Sunil Chetty, Lung Li
Mathematics Faculty Publications
Let E/k be an elliptic curve with CM by O. We determine a formula for (a generalization of) the arithmetic local constant of Mazur-Rubin at almost all primes of good reduction. We apply this formula to the CM curves defined over Q and are able to describe extensions F/Q over which the O-rank of E grows.
