A simple proof of the generalized Craig–Sakamoto theorem

The Craig–Sakamoto theorem establishes the independence of two quadratic forms in normal variates. In this article, we provide a simple proof of a generalized Craig–Sakamoto theorem.     

A Quantized Tits–Kantor–Koecher Algebra

We propose a quantum analogue of a Tits–Kantor–Koecher algebra with a Jordan torus as an coordinated algebra by looking at the vertex operator construction over a Fock space.     

A generalized Milne–Thomson theorem for the case of parabolic inclusion

Complex analysis methods are applied to determine a velocity field of seepage in a heterogeneous infinite planar medium consisting of two dissimilar homogeneous components with a parabolic interface. New cases with arbitrary singularities of the principal part of a required complex potential are considered.     

On loxodromic actions of Artin–Tits groups

Artin–Tits groups act on a certain delta-hyperbolic complex, called the “additional length complex”. For an element of the group, acting loxodromically on this complex is a property analogous to the property of being pseudo-Anosov for elements of mapping class groups. By analogy with a well-known conjecture about mapping class groups, we conjecture that “most” elements of Artin–Tits groups act loxodromically. More precisely, in the Cayley graph of a subgroup G of an Artin–Tits group, the proportion of loxodromically acting elements in a ball of large radius should tend to one as the radius tends to infinity. In this paper, we give a condition guaranteeing that this proportion stays away from zero. This condition is satisfied e.g. for Artin–Tits groups of spherical type, their pure subgroups and some of their commutator subgroups.     

A criterion for embedding of anisotropic Sobolev–Morrey spaces into the space of uniformly continuous functions

Exact solutions of the generalized Sinh–Gordon equation

In this paper, we successfully derive a new exact traveling wave solutions of the generalized Sinh–Gordon equation by new application of the homogeneous balance method. This method could be used in further works to establish more entirely new solutions for other kinds of nonlinear evolution equations arising in physics.

On the existence of special solutions of the generalized Davey–Stewartson system

In this note we show that for certain choice of parameters the hyperbolic–elliptic–elliptic generalized Davey–Stewartson system admits time-dependent travelling wave solutions of the kind given in [V.A. Arkadiev, A.K. Pogrebkov, M.C. Polivanov, Inverse scattering transform method and soliton solutions for Davey–Stewartson II equation, Physica D 36 (1989) 189–197] for the hyperbolic Davey–Stewartson system. These solutions lead to radial solutions as well. We also find the sufficient conditions for non-existence of travelling wave solutions for the hyperbolic–elliptic–elliptic generalized Davey–Stewartson system by using the point of view developed in [A. Eden, T.B. Gürel, E. Kuz, Focusing and defocusing cases of the purely elliptic generalized Davey–Stewartson system, IMA J. Appl. Math. (in press)].     

A 3-dimensional Eulerian–Eulerian CFD simulation of a hydrocyclone

Hydrocyclones are used in mineral industries for classification and separation of solid particles of different sizes and densities suspended in water medium. In the present study an Eulerian–Eulerian CFD simulation of a solid–liquid hydrocyclone has been carried out taking into account two solid phases and one liquid phase. The average size of the larger particle was 0.6117 and that of the smaller particle was 0.09875 mm. Three separate momentum balance equations for the three phases have been considered unlike that in the mixture model where a single momentum equation is solved for the three phases. Two turbulent models i.e. the Reynolds stress model (RSM) and the standard k–ε model were studied. Comparison of the two turbulence models showed slight variation in prediction of the velocity profile and the separation efficiency. The maximum deviation between the two models was observed near the wall where the stress was maximum for larger size particles.     

A generalized Fitzhugh–Nagumo equation

In this paper we investigate mappings of the classical Fitzhugh–Nagumo equation to a generalized Fitzhugh–Nagumo equation. These mappings are invertible and transform the solutions of the classical Fitzhugh–Nagumo equation into solutions of the generalized Fitzhugh–Nagumo equation considered here. These mappings are found by considering the Lie point symmetries admitted by the classical Fitzhugh–Nagumo equation and the generalized Fitzhugh–Nagumo equation considered here. A particular example of a generalized Fitzhugh–Nagumo equation that satisfies the boundary conditions of the classical Fitzhugh–Nagumo equation is considered. Numerical solutions of the generalized Fitzhugh–Nagumo equation that do not satisfy the boundary conditions of the classical Fitzhugh–Nagumo equation are obtained by implementing the Method of Lines.
