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.     

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

We prove the embedding theorems of the Sobolev–Morrey spaces into the space of uniformly continuous functions so extending the classical Sobolev Theorems.     

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.     

Irreducible Representations for the Baby Tits–Kantor–Koecher Algebra

The baby Tits–Kantor–Koecher (TKK) algebra constructed from the smallest (nonlattice) semilattice is related to the “smallest” extended affine Lie algebras other than the finite dimensional simple Lie algebras and the affine Kac–Moody algebras. In this article, we classify the finite dimensional irreducible representations for the baby TKK algebra. It turns out that such representations can be lifted from modules of direct sums of finitely many copies of the simple Lie algebra sp ₄(?).     

Asymptotic behavior of the generalized Korteweg–de Vries–Burgers equation

Cauchy’s problem for a generalization of the KdV–Burgers equation is considered in Sobolev spaces H¹(\mathbbR){H^1(\mathbb{R})} and H²(\mathbbR){H^2(\mathbb{R})}. We study its local and global solvability and the asymptotic behavior of solutions (in terms of the global attractors). The parabolic regularization technique is used in this paper which allows us to extend the strong regularity properties and estimates of solutions of the fourth order parabolic approximations onto their third order limit—the generalized Korteweg–de Vries–Burgers (KdVB) equation. For initial data in H²(\mathbbR){H^2(\mathbb{R})} we study the notion of viscosity solutions to KdVB, while for the larger H¹(\mathbbR){H^1(\mathbb{R})} phase space we introduce weak solutions to that problem. Finally, thanks to our general assumptions on the nonlinear term f guaranteeing that the global attractor is usually nontrivial (i.e., not reduced to a single stationary solution), we study an upper semicontinuity property of the family of global attractors corresponding to parabolic regularizations when the regularization parameter e{\epsilon} tends to 0⁺ (which corresponds the passage to the KdVB equation).     

A generalized mixed type of quartic–cubic–quadratic–additive functional equations

We determine the general solution of the functional equation f(x + ky) + f(x-ky) = g(x + y) + g(x-y) + h(x) + h(y) for fixed integers with k ≠ 0; ±1 without assuming any regularity conditions for the unknown functions f, g, h, and0020[(h)\tilde] \tilde{h} . The method used for solving these functional equations is elementary but it exploits an important result due to Hosszú. The solution of this functional equation can also be obtained in groups of certain type by using two important results due to Székelyhidi.     

A generalized Gleason–Pierce–Ward theorem

The Gleason–Pierce–Ward theorem gives constraints on the divisor and field size of a linear divisible code over a finite field whose dimension is half of the code length. This result is a departure point for the study of self-dual codes. In recent years, additive codes have been studied intensively because of their use in additive quantum codes. In this work, we generalize the Gleason–Pierce–Ward theorem on linear codes over GF(q), q = p ^m , to additive codes over GF(q). The first step of our proof is an application of a generalized upper bound on the dimension of a divisible code determined by its weight spectrum. The bound is proved by Ward for linear codes over GF(q), and is generalized by Liu to any code as long as the MacWilliams identities are satisfied. The trace map and an analogous homomorphism on GF(q) are used to complete our proof.      

On the stability of the generalized Cauchy–Jensen set-valued functional equations

In this paper, we prove the Hyers–Ulam–Rassias stability of the generalized Cauchy–Jensen set-valued functional equation defined by

$$\begin{aligned} \alpha f\left( \frac{x+y}{\alpha } + z\right) = f(x) \oplus f(y)\oplus \alpha f(z) \end{aligned}$$

for all \(x,y,z \in X\) and \(\alpha \ge 2\) on a Banach space by using the fixed point alternative theorem.
