A Sort of Gray-scale Morphological Dilations and Erosions

We introduce first a sort of gray-scale morphological dilations and erosions, which might have some further applications in image analysis. Then we show that the dilation and the erosion defined here form adjunctive pairs. The duality between the dilation and the erosion and some other properties, such as the commuting property with translation and homothety, of these operators are discussed as well.     

Existence and limit behavior of prescribed L2‐norm solutions for Schrödinger‐Poisson‐Slater systems in

In this paper, we study constraint minimizers of the following L ²?critical minimization problem: where E (u ) is the Schrödinger‐Poisson‐Slater functional and N denotes the mass of the particles in the Schrödinger‐Poisson‐Slater system. We prove that e (N ) admits minimizers for and, however, no minimizers for N >N ^?, where Q (x ) is the unique positive solution of in . Some results on the existence and nonexistence of minimizers for e (N ^?) are also established. Further, when e (N ^?) does not admit minimizers, the limit behavior of minimizers as N ↗N ^? is also analyzed rigorously.     

Some inequalities for the Bell numbers

In this paper, we present derivatives of the generating functions for the Bell numbers by induction and by the Faà di Bruno formula, recover an explicit formula in terms of the Stirling numbers of the second kind, find the (logarithmically) absolute and complete monotonicity of the generating functions, and construct some inequalities for the Bell numbers. From these inequalities, we derive the logarithmic convexity of the sequence of the Bell numbers.     

Semi-linear degenerate backward stochastic partial differential equations and associated forward–backward stochastic differential equations

In this paper, we consider the Cauchy problem of semi-linear degenerate backward stochastic partial differential equations (BSPDEs) under general settings without technical assumptions on the coefficients. For the solution of semi-linear degenerate BSPDE, we first give a proof for its existence and uniqueness, as well as regularity. Then the connection between semi-linear degenerate BSPDEs and forward–backward stochastic differential equations (FBSDEs) is established, which can be regarded as an extension of the Feynman–Kac formula to the non-Markovian framework.     

Extermal solutions of terminal value problems for nonlinear impulsive integro-differential equations in Banach spaces

Abstract. The comparison principle is first established ,and then the lower and upper solutionmethod and the monotone iterative technique are employed to the study of terminal value prob-lems for the first order nonlinear impulsive integro-differential equations in Banach spaces. Fi-nally ,the existence theorem on the maximal and minimal solutions is obtained.

Convexity control and approximation properties of interpolating curves

A constrained rational cubic spline with linear denominator was constructed in [1]. In the present paper, the sufficient condition for convex interpolation and some properties in error estimation are given.     

A Normal Criterion Concerning Omitted Holomorphic Function

In this paper, we continue to discuss the normality concerning omitted holomorphic function and get the following result. Let F be a family of meromorphic functions on a domain D, k ≥ 4 be a positive integer, and let a(z) and b(z) be two holomorphic functions on D, where a(z) 0 and f(z) ≠ ∞ whenever a(z)=0. If for any f ∈ F, f'(z) -a(z)f^k(z) ≠ b(z), then F is normal on D.
