On the Algebraic Properties of Errors

In numerical analysis (absolute) errors can be identified with one‐dimensional intervals symmetric with respect to zero. Addition, multiplication and inclusion of errors are well‐defined (set‐theoretically) in interval analysis. We study axiomatically the algebraic properties of such a system of errors. To this end we introduce and investigate a new abstract algebraic structure called e‐ring.     

On the Properties of Accretive-Dissipative Matrices

Let A be a complex n × n matrix, and let A = B + iC, B = B*, C = C* be its Toeplitz decomposition. Then A is said to be (strictly) accretive if B > 0 and (strictly) dissipative if C > 0. We study the properties of matrices that satisfy both these conditions, in other words, of accretive-dissipative matrices. In many respects, these matrices behave as numbers in the first quadrant of the complex plane. Some other properties are natural extensions of the corresponding properties of Hermitian positive-definite matrices.__________Translated from Matematicheskie Zametki, vol. 77, no. 6, 2005, pp. 832–843.Original Russian Text Copyright ©2005 by A.

On Combinatorial Properties of the Knapsack Problem

关于BCK代数的模型论性质

This paper is devoted to the study of the logical properties of BCK algebras. For formalized BCK algebra theory T, it is proved that T is preserved under submodels and unions of chains; T is neither complete nor model complete, and hence there exist no built-in Skolem function. Moreover, the ultraproduct BCK algebras and the fuzzy ultraproduct of fuzzy subsets of BCK algebras were proposed by using the concept of ultrafilters with corresponding properties of fuzzy ideals discussed.     

On the Characteristic Properties of Exponential Distribution

New characterizations for the exponential distribution are given in terms of record values and the probabilities of finite sums of independent and identically distributed nonnegative random variables provided that the underlying distribution is either new better than used or new worse than used.     

On Some Properties of the Hoede-Bakker Index

In this article, we analyze the decisional power index, the so called Hoede-Bakker index. This index takes the preferences of the players into account, as well as the social structure in which players may influence each other. We investigate the properties of the Hoede-Bakker index. We adapt some postulates for power indices and voting power paradoxes for the Hoede-Bakker set up. We investigate whether this decisional power index displays the adapted voting power paradoxes and whether it satisfies the adapted postulates for power indices.     

On Some Properties of the Shrinking Generator

We obtain several results about the output rate and distribution ofzeros and ones of the shrinking generator associated with two linear recurringsequences. These results are based on various bounds on the number of zeros of linearrecurring sequences. Non-linear recurring sequences are considered aswell.     

On the Complexity of Partial Order Properties

The recognition complexity of ordered set properties is considered in terms of how many questions must be put to an adversary to decide if an unknown partial order has the prescribed property. We prove a lower bound of order n ² for properties that are characterized by forbidden substructures of fixed size. For the properties being connected, and having exactly k comparable pairs, k n ² / 4 we show that the recognition complexity is (n\choose 2). The complexity of interval orders is exactly (n\choose 2) - 1. We further establish bounds for being a lattice, being of height k and having width k.

On Some Properties of the Quaternionic Functional Calculus

In some recent works we have developed a new functional calculus for bounded and unbounded quaternionic operators acting on a quaternionic Banach space. That functional calculus is based on the theory of slice regular functions and on a Cauchy formula which holds for particular domains where the admissible functions have power series expansions. In this paper, we use a new version of the Cauchy formula with slice regular kernel to extend the validity of the quaternionic functional calculus to functions defined on more general domains. Moreover, we show some of the algebraic properties of the quaternionic functional calculus such as the S-spectral radius theorem and the S-spectral mapping theorem. Our functional calculus is also a natural tool to define the semigroup e ^tA when A is a linear quaternionic operator.      

On the Spectral Properties of the Perturbed Landau Hamiltonian

The Landau Hamiltonian governing the behavior of a quantum particle in dimension 2 in a constant magnetic field is perturbed by a compactly supported magnetic field and a similar electric field. We describe how the spectral subspaces change and how the Landau levels split under this perturbation.

On Combinatorial Properties of Bands

In this paper we study the D-saturated property of bands defined in terms of their Cayley graphs Cay(S,C), where S is a band and C ? Z(S), the center of S. Also we characterize the Cayley graphs of bands. More generally, for a finite graph Γ =Cay(T, D), where T is a band and D ? Z(T), we give an algorithm for finding all bands S and C ? Z(S) such that Γ =Cay(S, C).

On Properties of Rectangular Hyperbolas

This paper improves an old theorem about a rectangular hyperbola : its centre lies on the pedal circle of any point on with respect to any triangle inscribed in . We also prove that an analogous result holds for Cevian circles. These results are used to obtain new characterisations of the Feuerbach, Jarabek, and Kiepert hyperbolas of a triangle.     

On Some Properties of $c$-Frames

In this paper we discuss about $c$-frames, namely continuous frames. Since, $c$-frames are generalizations of discrete frames, we generalize some results of discrete frames to continuous version. We explain some results about relations of projections in Hilbert spaces and $c$-frames to characterize these frames. Also, we will specify (precisely) the synthesis and frame operators of Bochner integrable $c$-frames. Finally, we classify Hilbert-Schmidt operators by $c$-frames and express some new identities for Parseval $c$-frames.     

On Distributional Properties of Perpetuities

We study probability distributions of convergent random series of a special structure, called perpetuities. By giving a new argument, we prove that such distributions are of pure type: degenerate, absolutely continuous, or continuously singular. We further provide necessary and sufficient criteria for the finiteness of p-moments, p>0, as well as exponential moments. In particular, a formula for the abscissa of convergence of the moment generating function is provided. The results are illustrated with a number of examples at the end of the article.
