Multiwave interaction solutions for a (3+1)-dimensional generalized Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation

To construct a class of new multiwave interaction solutions for the (3+1)-dimensional generalized Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation, we calculate different types of interaction solutions among solitons, periodic waves and rational waves using the direct algebraic method together with the inheritance solving skill. Moreover, a new algorithm is proposed with the aid of the simplified Hirota method, the conjugated parameters assignment and long wave limit strategies, from which multiwave interaction solutions among solitons, breathers and lump waves are generated.     

Quantifier-free epistemic term-modal logic with assignment operator

In standard epistemic logic, the names and the existence of agents are usually assumed to be common knowledge implicitly. This is unreasonable for various applications in computer science and philosophy. Inspired by term-modal logic and assignment operators in dynamic logic, we introduce a lightweight modal predicate logic where names can be non-rigid, and the existence of agents can be uncertain. The language can handle various de dicto/de re distinctions in a natural way. We characterize the expressive power of our language, obtain complete axiomatisations of the logics over several classes of varying-domain/constant-domain epistemic models, and show their (un)decidability.     

Manage Pension Deficit with Heterogeneous Insurance

This paper considers a positive and increasing pension deficit of a certain pay-as-you-go (PAYG) pension system, and tries to make up for this deficit by using heterogeneous insurance. The positive pension deficit is formulated as a mathematical function in continuous time. The surplus of an appropriate heterogeneous insurance is described by diffusion approximation of a Cramér-Lundberg process. The system of extended Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equations under mean-variance criterion is established. The closed-form solution and optimal surplus-multiplier of heterogenous insurance are obtained. Some interpretations further explain the theoretical values of the results.

Synthesis,anticancer activity,toxicity evaluation and molecular docking studies of novel phenylaminopyrimidine—(thio)urea hybrids as potential kinase inhibitors

Thirty-two novel urea/thiourea compounds as potential kinase inhibitor were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their cytotoxic activity on breast (MCF7), colon (HCT116) and liver (Huh7) cancer cell lines. Compounds 10, 19 and 30 possessing anticancer activity with IC₅₀ values of 0.9, 0.8 and 1.6 μM respectively on Huh7 cells were selected for further studies. These hit compounds were tested against liver carcinoma panel. Real time cell electronic sensing assay was used to evaluate the effects of the compounds 10, 19 and 30 on the growth pattern of liver cancer cells. Apoptotic cell death and cell cycle analysis upon treatment of liver carcinoma cells with hit compounds were determined. A significant apoptotic cell death was detected upon treatment of Huh7 and Mahlavu cells with compound 30 after 48 h of treatment. Additionally, compound 10 caused cell cycle arrest at G0/G1 phase. Mutagenicity of hit compounds was evaluated. Assertively, these compounds were not found to be mutagenic on Salmonella typhimurium strains TA98 and TA100. To understand the binding modes of the synthesized compounds, molecular docking studies were performed using the crystal data of VEGFR and Src-kinase enzymes in correlation with anticancer activities.     

Twisted bounded-dilation group C*-algebras as C*-metric algebras

We construct a class of C~*-metric algebras. We prove that for a discrete group Γ with a 2-cocycle σ,the closure of the seminorm ||[M?, ·]|| on Cc(Γ, σ) is a Leibniz Lip-norm on the twisted reduced group C~*-algebra C*r(Γ, σ) for the pointwise multiplication operator M?on ?2(Γ), induced by a proper length function ? on Γ with the property of bounded θ-dilation. Moreover, the compact quantum metric space structures depend only on the cohomology class of 2-cocycles in the Lipschitz isometric sense.     

Springer basic sets and modular Springer correspondence for classical types

We define the notion of basic set data for finite groups (building on the notion of basic set, but including an order on the irreducible characters as part of the structure), and we prove that the Springer correspondence provides basic set data for Weyl groups. Then we use this to determine explicitly the modular Springer correspondence for classical types (defined over a base field of odd characteristic $p$, and with coefficients in a field of odd characteristic $?\ne p$): the modular case is obtained as a restriction of the ordinary case to a basic set. In order to do so, we compare the order on bipartitions introduced by Dipper and James with the order induced by the Springer correspondence. We provide a quick proof, by sorting characters according to the dimension of the corresponding Springer fibre, an invariant which is directly computable from symbols.
