Soliton solutions of a BBM(m, n) equation with generalized evolution

We consider a BBM(m, n) equation which is a generalization of the celebrated Benjamin-Bona-Mahony equation with generalized evolution term. By using two solitary wave ansatze in terms of sech^p(x) and tanh^p(x) functions, we find exact analytical bright and dark soliton solutions for the considered model. The physical parameters in the soliton solutions are obtained as function of the dependent model coefficients. The conditions of existence of solitons are presented. Note that, it is always useful and desirable to construct exact analytical solutions especially soliton-type envelope for the understanding of most nonlinear physical phenomena.     

Identifying codes and locating-dominating sets on paths and cycles

Let G=(V,E) be a graph and let r≥1 be an integer. For a set D⊆V, define N_r[x]={y∈V:d(x,y)≤r} and D_r(x)=N_r[x]∩D, where d(x,y) denotes the number of edges in any shortest path between x and y. D is known as an r-identifying code (r-locating-dominating set, respectively), if for all vertices x∈V (x∈V?D, respectively), D_r(x) are all nonempty and different. Roberts and Roberts [D.L. Roberts, F.S. Roberts, Locating sensors in paths and cycles: the case of 2-identifying codes, European Journal of Combinatorics 29 (2008) 72-82] provided complete results for the paths and cycles when r=2. In this paper, we provide results for a remaining open case in cycles and complete results in paths for r-identifying codes; we also give complete results for 2-locating-dominating sets in cycles, which completes the results of Bertrand et al. [N. Bertrand, I. Charon, O. Hudry, A. Lobstein, Identifying and locating-dominating codes on chains and cycles, European Journal of Combinatorics 25 (2004) 969-987].     

Convergence theorems for equilibrium problem, variational inequality problem and countably infinite relatively quasi-nonexpansive mappings

In this paper, we introduce an iterative process which converges strongly to a common element of set of common fixed points of countably infinite family of closed relatively quasi- nonexpansive mappings, the solution set of generalized equilibrium problem and the solution set of the variational inequality problem for a γ-inverse strongly monotone mapping in Banach spaces. Our theorems improve, generalize, unify and extend several results recently announced.     

Estimates of the dilatation function of Beurling-Ahlfors extension

In this paper we estimate the dilatation function of the Beurling-Ahlfors extension in the most general case. By introducing ?h,m-function, we obtain an inequality which is sharp up to a constant.     

Group actions and Helly's theorem

We describe a connection between the combinatorics of generators for certain groups and the combinatorics of Helly's 1913 theorem on convex sets. We use this connection to prove fixed point theorems for actions of these groups on nonpositively curved metric spaces. These results are encoded in a property that we introduce called “property FAr”, which reduces to Serre's property FA when r=1. The method applies to S-arithmetic groups in higher Q-rank, to simplex reflection groups (including some nonarithmetic ones), and to higher rank Chevalley groups over polynomial and other rings (for example SLn(Z[x₁,…,xd]), n>2).     

Further improved recursions for a class of compound Poisson distributions

In the present paper we develop more efficient recursive formulae for the evaluation of the t-order cumulative function Γ^th(x) and the t-order tail probability Λ^th(x) of the class of compound Poisson distributions in the case where the derivative of the probability generating function of the claim amounts can be written as a ratio of two polynomials. These efficient recursions can be applied for the exact evaluation of the probability function (given by De Pril [De Pril, N., 1986a. Improved recursions for some compound Poisson distributions. Insurance Math. Econom. 5, 129-132]), distribution function, tail probability, stop-loss premiums and t-order moments of stop-loss transforms of compound Poisson distributions. Also, efficient recursive algorithms are given for the evaluation of higher-order moments and r-order factorial moments about any point for this class of compound Poisson distributions. Finally, several examples of discrete claim size distributions belonging to this class are also given.     

Constructions of generalized Sidon sets

We give explicit constructions of sets S with the property that for each integer k, there are at most g solutions to k=s₁+s₂,s_i∈S; such sets are called Sidon sets if g=2 and generalized Sidon sets if g?3. We extend to generalized Sidon sets the Sidon-set constructions of Singer, Bose, and Ruzsa. We also further optimize Kolountzakis’ idea of interleaving several copies of a Sidon set, extending the improvements of Cilleruelo, Ruzsa and Trujillo, Jia, and Habsieger and Plagne. The resulting constructions yield the largest known generalized Sidon sets in virtually all cases.     

Super-vertex-antimagic total labelings of disconnected graphs

Let G=(V,E) be a finite, simple and non-empty (p,q)-graph of order p and size q. An (a,d)-vertex-antimagic total labeling is a bijection f from V(G)∪E(G) onto the set of consecutive integers 1,2,…,p+q, such that the vertex-weights form an arithmetic progression with the initial term a and the common difference d, where the vertex-weight of x is the sum of values f(xy) assigned to all edges xy incident to vertex x together with the value assigned to x itself, i.e. f(x). Such a labeling is called super if the smallest possible labels appear on the vertices.In this paper, we will study the properties of such labelings and examine their existence for disconnected graphs.     

Pair lengths of product graphs

The pair length of a graph G is the maximum positive integer k, such that the vertex set of G can be partitioned into disjoint pairs {x,x^′}, such that d(x,x^′)?k for every x∈V(G) and x^′y^′ is an edge of G whenever xy is an edge. Chen asked whether the pair length of the cartesian product of two graphs is equal to the sum of their pair lengths. Our aim in this short note is to prove this result.     

Noncommutative maximal ergodic theorems for positive contractions

Let M be a von Neumann algebra equipped with a normal semifinite faithful trace τ. Let T be a positive linear contraction on M such that τ○T?τ and such that the numerical range of T as an operator on L₂(M) is contained in a Stoltz region with vertex 1. We show that Junge and Xu's noncommutative Stein maximal ergodic inequality holds for the powers of T on Lp(M), 1<p?∞. We apply this result to obtain the noncommutative analogue of a recent result of Cohen concerning the iterates of the product of a finite number of conditional expectations.
