A congruence is defined for a matroid. This leads to suitable versions of the algebraic isomorphism theorems for matroids. As an application of the congruence theory for matroids, a version of Birkhoff’s Theorem for matroids is given which shows that every nontrivial matroid is a subdirect product of subdirectly irreducible matroids.

Let (M, [g]) be a Weyl manifold and TM be its tangent bundle equipped with Riemannian g−natural metrics which are linear combinations of Sasaki, horizontal and vertical lifts of the base metric with constant coefficients. The aim of this paper is to construct a Weyl structure on TM and to show that TM cannot be Einstein-Weyl even if (M, g) is fiat.

We give all functions ƒ , E: ℕ → ℂ which satisfy the relation

ƒ ( a 2 + b 2 + c 2 + h )   = E ( a )   + E ( b )   + E ( c )   + K

for every a, b, c ∈ ℕ, where h ≥ 0 is an integers and K is a complex number. If n cannot be written as a2 + b2 + c2 + h for suitable a, b, c ∈ ℕ, then ƒ (n) is not determined. This is more complicated if we assume that ƒ and E are multiplicative functions.

In this article, we study a fractional control problem that models the maximization of the profit obtained by exploiting a certain resource whose dynamics are governed by the fractional logistic equation. Due to the singularity of this problem, we develop different resolution techniques, both for the classical case and for the fractional case. We perform several numerical simulations to make a comparison between both cases.

In stochastic geometry there are several instances of threshold phenomena in high dimensions: the behavior of a limit of some expectation changes abruptly when some parameter passes through a critical value. This note continues the investigation of the expected face numbers of polyhedral random cones, when the dimension of the ambient space increases to infinity. In the focus are the critical values of the observed threshold phenomena, as well as threshold phenomena for differences instead of quotients.

Binary groups are a meaningful step up from non-associative rings and nearrings. It makes sense to study them in terms of their nearrings of zero-fixing polynomial maps. As this involves algebras of a more specialized nature these are looked into in sections three and four. One of the main theorems of this paper occurs in section five where it is shown that a binary group V is a P 0(V) ring module if, and only if, it is a rather restricted form of non-associative ring. Properties of these non-associative rings (called terminal rings) are investigated in sections six and seven. The finite case is of special interest since here terminal rings of odd order really are quite restricted. Sections eight to thirteen are taken up with the study of terminal rings of order p n (p an odd prime and n ≥ 1 an integer ≤ 7).

Column-row products have zero determinant over any commutative ring. In this paper we discuss the converse. For domains, we show that this yields a characterization of pre-Schreier rings, and for rings with zero divisors we show that reduced pre-Schreier rings have this property.

Finally, for the rings of integers modulo n, we determine the 2x2 matrices which are (or not) full and their numbers.

For a continuous and positive function w(λ), λ > 0 and μ a positive measure on (0, ∞) we consider the followingmonotonic integral transform

M ( w , μ ) ( T )  := 0 w ( λ ) T ( λ + T ) 1 d μ ( λ ) ,

where the integral is assumed to exist forT a positive operator on a complex Hilbert spaceH. We show among others that, if β ≥ A, B ≥ α > 0, and 0 < δ ≤ (B − A)2 ≤ Δ for some constants α, β, δ, Δ, then

where M ( w , μ ) is the second derivative of M ( w , μ ) as a real function.

Applications for power function and logarithm are also provided.

Let ƒ be analytic in the unit disk B and normalized so that ƒ (z) = z + a2z2 + a3z3 +܁܁܁. In this paper, we give upper bounds of the Hankel determinant of second order for the classes of starlike functions of order α, Ozaki close-to-convex functions and two other classes of analytic functions. Some of the estimates are sharp.

The authors have studied the curvature of the focal conic in the isotropic plane and the form of the circle of curvature at its points has been obtained. Hereby, we discuss several properties of such circles of curvature at the points of a parabola in the isotropic plane.

In this paper, we investigate a generalization of the classical Stirling numbers of the first kind by considering permutations over tuples with an extra condition on the minimal elements of the cycles. The main focus of this work is the analysis of combinatorial properties of these new objects. We give general combinatorial identities and some recurrence relations. We also show some connections with other sequences such as poly-Cauchy numbers with higher level and central factorial numbers. To obtain our results, we use pure combinatorial arguments and classical manipulations of formal power series.

A space X is called functionally countable if ƒ (X) is countable for any continuous function ƒ : X → Ø. Given an infinite cardinal k, we prove that a compact scattered space K with d(K) > k must have a convergent k+-sequence. This result implies that a Corson compact space K is countable if the space (K × K) \ ΔK is functionally countable; here ΔK = {(x, x): x ϵ K} is the diagonal of K. We also establish that, under Jensen’s Axiom ♦, there exists a compact hereditarily separable non-metrizable compact space X such that (X × X) \ ΔX is functionally countable and show in ZFC that there exists a non-separable σ-compact space X such that (X × X) \ ΔX is functionally countable.

We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for the coincidence, up to equivalence of the norms, between strong and weak Orlicz spaces. Roughly speaking, this coincidence holds true only for the so-called exponential spaces.

We also find the exact value of the embedding constant which appears in the corresponding norm inequality.

Suppose that K and K' are knots inside the homology spheres Y and Y', respectively. Let X = Y (K, K') be the 3-manifold obtained by splicing the complements of K and K' and Z be the three-manifold obtained by 0 surgery on K. When Y' is an L-space, we use the splicing formula of [1] to show that the rank of H Y ^ (X ) is bounded below by the rank of H Y ^ (Y ) if τ(K 2) = 0 and is bounded below by rank( H Y ^ (Z)) − 2 rank( H Y ^ (Y)) + 1 if τ(K') ≠ 0.

Let k ≥ 1. A Sperner k-family is a maximum-sized subset of a finite poset that contains no chain with k + 1 elements. In 1976 Greene and Kleitman defined a lattice-ordering on the set Sk (P) of Sperner k-families of a fifinite poset P and posed the problem: “Characterize and interpret the join- and meet-irreducible elements of Sk (P),” adding, “This has apparently not been done even for the case k = 1.”

In this article, the case k = 1 is done.

Let K = ℚ(α) be a number field generated by a complex root a of a monic irreducible polynomial ƒ (x) = x36 − m, with m ≠ ±1 a square free rational integer. In this paper, we prove that if m ≡ 2 or 3 (mod 4) and m ≠ ±1 (mod 9) then the number field K is monogenic. If m ≡ 1 (mod 4) or m ≡±1 (mod 9), then the number field K is not monogenic.

In this paper, we prove that the ∗-Ricci tensor of a real hypersurface in complex projective plane ℂP 2 or complex hyperbolic plane ℂH 2 is cyclic parallel if and only if the hypersurface is of type (A). We find some three-dimensional real hypersurfaces having non-vanishing and non-parallel ∗-Ricci tensors which are cyclic parallel.

Let D be a weighted oriented graph, whose underlying graph is G, and let I (D) be its edge ideal. If G has no 3-, 5-, or 7-cycles, or G is Kőnig, we characterize when I (D) is unmixed. If G has no 3- or 5-cycles, or G is Kőnig, we characterize when I (D) is Cohen–Macaulay. We prove that I (D) is unmixed if and only if I (D) is Cohen–Macaulay when G has girth greater than 7 or G is Kőnig and has no 4-cycles.

In cryptography one needs pseudorandom sequences whose short subsequences are also pseudorandom. To handle this problem, Dartyge, Gyarmati and Sárközy introduced weighted measures of pseudorandomness of binary sequences. In this paper we continue the research in this direction. We introduce weighted pseudorandom measure for multidimensional binary lattices and estimate weighted pseudorandom measure for truly random binary lattices. We also give lower bounds for weighted measures of even order and present an example by using the quadratic character of finite fields.

The symbol S(X) denotes the hyperspace of finite unions of convergent sequences in a Hausdor˛ space X. This hyper-space is endowed with the Vietoris topology. First of all, we give a characterization of convergent sequence in S(X). Then we consider some cardinal invariants on S(X), and compare the character, the pseudocharacter, the sn-character, the so-character, the network weight and cs-network weight of S(X) with the corresponding cardinal function of X. Moreover, we consider rank k-diagonal on S(X), and give a space X with a rank 2-diagonal such that S(X) does not Gδ -diagonal. Further, we study the relations of some generalized metric properties of X and its hyperspace S(X). Finally, we pose some questions about the hyperspace S(X).

We introduce a new subgroup embedding property in a finite group called s -semipermutability. Suppose that G is a finite group and H is a subgroup of G. H is said to be s -semipermutable in G if there exists a subnormal subgroup K of G such that G = HK and H ∩ K is s-semipermutable in G. We fix in every non-cyclic Sylow subgroup P of G some subgroup D satisfying 1 < |D| < |P | and study the structure of G under the assumption that every subgroup H of P with |H | = |D| is s -semipermutable in G. Some recent results are generalized and unified.

In this article, we study ideals in residuated lattice and present a characterization theorem for them. We investigate some related results between the obstinate ideals and other types of ideals of a residuated lattice, likeness Boolean, primary, prime, implicative, maximal and ʘ-prime ideals. Characterization theorems and extension property for obstinate ideal are stated and proved. For the class of ʘ-residuated lattices, by using the ʘ-prime ideals we propose a characterization, and prove that an ideal is an ʘ-prime ideal iff its quotient algebra is an ʘ-residuated lattice. Finally, by using ideals, the class of Noetherian (Artinian) residuated lattices is introduced and Cohen’s theorem is proved.

We pose an interpolation problem for the space of bounded analytic functions in the disk. The interpolation is performed by a function and its di˛erence of values in points whose subscripts are related by an increasing application. We impose that the data values satisfy certain conditions related to the pseudohyperbolic distance, and characterize interpolating sequences in terms of uniformly separated subsequences.

We study the polynomial entropy of the logistic map depending on a parameter, and we calculate it for almost all values of the parameter. We show that polynomial entropy distinguishes systems with a low complexity (i.e. for which the topological entropy vanishes).

In addition, we give a complete characterization of three-weight weak type maximal inequality of martingales. Our results generalize some known results on weighted theory of martingale maximal operators.

During the last decade, a number of explicit results about the distributions of exponential functionals of Brownian motion with drift: A t ( μ ) = 0 t   d s  exp {2( B s + μ s)}, have been obtained, often originating with the works of D. Dufresne.

In the present paper, we rely extensively on these results to show the existence of limiting measures as T , when the law of { B t + μ t , 0 _ t _ T } is perturbed by the Radon-Nikodym density consisting of either of the normalized functionals exp ( α A T ( μ ) ) or 1 / ( A T ( μ ) ) m . The results exhibit different regimes according to whether μ _ 0 ,  or  μ < 0 in the first case, and to a partition of the ( μ , m ) -plane in the second case.

Although a large number of similar studies have been made for, say, one-dimensional diffusions, the present study, which focuses upon Brownian exponential functionals, appears to be new.

We study the effect on sections of a soluble-by-finite group G of finite rank of an almost fixed-point-free automorphism φ of G of finite order. We also elucidate the structure of G if φ has order 4 and if G is also (torsion-free)-by-finite. The latter extends recent work of Xu, Zhou and Liu.

In this paper, we investigate the uniqueness of algebroid functions in angular domain by the method of conformal mapping. We discuss the relations between the Borel directions and uniquenss with the multiple values of algebroid functions and obtain some results which extend some uniqueness results of meromorphic functions to that of algebroid functions.

Where β L ( Ω ) and f : Ω × satisfies Carathéodory condition. By means of variational methods and the theory of the variable exponent Sobolev spaces, we establish conditions for the existence of weak solutions.

It is also proved that these results are the best possible in a special sense. As applications, both some well-known and new results are pointed out. In particular, we apply these results to prove a.e. convergence of such T means.

A linear operator on a Hilbert space , in the classical approach of von Neumann, must be symmetric to guarantee self-adjointness. However, it can be shown that the symmetry could be omitted by using a criterion for the graph of the operator and the adjoint of the graph. Namely, S is shown to be densely defined and closed if and only if k + l : k , l G S G S * = .

In a more general setup, we can consider relations instead of operators and we prove that in this situation a similar result holds. We give a necessary and sufficient condition for a linear relation to be densely defined and self-adjoint.

Let X be a topological space. For any positive integer n, we consider the n-fold symmetric product of X, ℱ n (X), consisting of all nonempty subsets of X with at most n points; and for a given function ƒ : XX, we consider the induced functions ℱ n (ƒ): ℱ n (X) → ℱ n (X). Let M be one of the following classes of functions: exact, transitive, ℤ-transitive, ℤ+-transitive, mixing, weakly mixing, chaotic, turbulent, strongly transitive, totally transitive, orbit-transitive, strictly orbit-transitive, ω-transitive, minimal, I N, T T ++, semi-open and irreducible. In this paper we study the relationship between the following statements: ƒM and ℱ n (ƒ) ∈ M.

Infinite matroids have been defined by Reinhard Diestel and coauthors in such a way that this class is (together with the finite matroids) closed under dualization and taking minors. On the other hand, Andreas Dress introduced a theory of matroids with coefficients in a fuzzy ring which is – from a combinatorial point of view – less general, because within this theory every circuit has a finite intersection with every cocircuit. Within the present paper, we extend the theory of matroids with coefficients to more general classes of matroids, if the underlying fuzzy ring has certain properties to be specified.

In many clique search algorithms well coloring of the nodes is employed to find an upper bound of the clique number of the given graph. In an earlier work a non-traditional edge coloring scheme was proposed to get upper bounds that are typically better than the one provided by the well coloring of the nodes. In this paper we will show that the same scheme for well coloring of the edges can be used to find lower bounds for the clique number of the given graph. In order to assess the performance of the procedure we carried out numerical experiments.

This paper solves an enumerative problem which arises naturally in the context of Pascal’s hexagram.

In the later sections, we have defined trilinear frame bundle and have proved that the trilinear frame bundle is the principal bundle and have proved in Theorem 5.1 that the Jacobian map π * is the isomorphism.
