On the Motion of Substance in a Channel of a Network: Extended Model and New Classes of Probability Distributions

We discuss the motion of substance in a channel containing nodes of a network. Each node of the channel can exchange substance with: (i) neighboring nodes of the channel, (ii) network nodes which do not belong to the channel, and (iii) environment of the network. The new point in this study is that we assume possibility for exchange of substance among flows of substance between nodes of the channel and: (i) nodes that belong to the network but do not belong to the channel and (ii) environment of the network. This leads to an extension of the model of motion of substance and the extended model contains previous models as particular cases. We use a discrete-time model of motion of substance and consider a stationary regime of motion of substance in a channel containing a finite number of nodes. As results of the study, we obtain a class of probability distributions connected to the amount of substance in nodes of the channel. We prove that the obtained class of distributions contains all truncated discrete probability distributions of discrete random variable ω which can take values 0,1,⋯,N. Theory for the case of a channel containing infinite number of nodes is presented in Appendix A. The continuous version of the discussed discrete probability distributions is described in Appendix B. The discussed extended model and obtained results can be used for the study of phenomena that can be modeled by flows in networks: motion of resources, traffic flows, motion of migrants, etc.

Weighted composition operators between weighted spaces of vector-valued holomorphic functions on Banach spaces

Let B(E, F) be the Banach Space of all continuous linear operators from a Banach Space E into a Banach space F. Let U_X and U_Y be balanced open subsets of Banach spaces X and Y, respectively. Let V and W be two Nachbin families of continuous weights on U_X and U_Y, respectively. Let HV(U_X, E) (or HV₀(U_X, E)) and HW(U_Y, F) (or HW₀(U_Y, F)) be the weighted spaces of vector-valued holomorphic functions. In this paper, we investigate the holomorphic mappings ? : U_Y → U_X and ψ : U_Y → B(E, F) which generate weighted composition operators between these weighted spaces.     

Finiteness of circulant weighing matrices of fixed weight

Let n be a fixed positive integer. Every circulant weighing matrix of weight n arises from what we call an irreducible orthogonal family of weight n. We show that the number of irreducible orthogonal families of weight n is finite and thus obtain a finite algorithm for classifying all circulant weighing matrices of weight n. We also show that, for every odd prime power q, there are at most finitely many proper circulant weighing matrices of weight q.     

Singular densities,test particles and generalized Hamiltonian systems in general relativity

We derive the motion equations and the structure equations of neutral and charged test particles, starting from the gravitational field equations. The method consists in the application of conservation laws to singular tensor densities, which represent regions of strong matter concentration. Moreover, a Hamiltonian formulation of the particle equations is given, in the form of implicit differential equations generated by Hamiltonian Morse families.
