Riesz-Nágy singular functions revisited

In 1952 F. Riesz and Sz.-Nágy published an example of a monotonic continuous function whose derivative is zero almost everywhere, that is to say, a singular function. Besides, the function was strictly increasing. Their example was built as the limit of a sequence of deformations of the identity function. As an easy consequence of the definition, the derivative, when it existed and was finite, was found to be zero. In this paper we revisit the Riesz-Nágy family of functions and we relate it to a system for real number representation which we call (τ,τ−1)-expansions. With the help of these real number expansions we generalize the family. The singularity of the functions is proved through some metrical properties of the expansions used in their definition which also allows us to give a more precise way of determining when the derivative is 0 or infinity.

New Cyclic Difference Sets with Singer Parameters Constructed from d-Homogeneous Functions

In this paper, for a prime power q, new cyclic difference sets with Singer para- meters ((q ⁿ –1/q–1), (q ^n–1–1/q–1), (q ^n–2–1/q–1)) are constructed by using q-ary sequences (d-homogeneous functions) of period q ⁿ –1 and the generalization of GMW difference sets is proposed by combining the generation methods of d-form sequences and extended sequences. When q is a power of 3, new cyclic difference sets with Singer parameters ((q ⁿ –1/q–1), (q ^n–1–1/q–1), (q ^n–2–1/q–1)) are constructed from the ternary sequences of period q ⁿ –1 with ideal autocorrelation introduced by Helleseth, Kumar, and Martinsen.     

Characteristic Elements of Unimodular -lattices

Characteristic elements have been useful in the classification of unimodular lattices over the integers. This article gives an explicit formula for characteristic elements of a lattice in terms of a basis for the lattice and the dual of that basis.

Unconstrained and constrained global optimization of polynomial functions in one variable

In Floudas and Visweswaran (1990), a new global optimization algorithm (GOP) was proposed for solving constrained nonconvex problems involving quadratic and polynomial functions in the objective function and/or constraints. In this paper, the application of this algorithm to the special case of polynomial functions of one variable is discussed. The special nature of polynomial functions enables considerable simplification of the GOP algorithm. The primal problem is shown to reduce to a simple function evaluation, while the relaxed dual problem is equivalent to the simultaneous solution of two linear equations in two variables. In addition, the one-to-one correspondence between the x and y variables in the problem enables the iterative improvement of the bounds used in the relaxed dual problem. The simplified approach is illustrated through a simple example that shows the significant improvement in the underestimating function obtained from the application of the modified algorithm. The application of the algorithm to several unconstrained and constrained polynomial function problems is demonstrated.     

On a generalization of the Kalman-Yakubovic lemma

In this paper we generalize the Kalman-Yakubovic lemma to infinite dimensions—or, more precisely, to semigroups of operators over a Hilbert space. The proof differs substantially from the finite-dimensional version and is based on the Paley-Wiener-Helson-Lowdenslager factorization theorem.     

Analysis of an retrial queue

We consider a single server retrial queueing system in which each customer (primary or retrial customer) has discrete service times taking on value D_j with probability , and . An arriving primary customer who finds the server busy tries later. Moreover, each retrial customer has its own orbit, and the retrial customers try to enter the service independently of each other. We call this retrial queue an M/{D_n}/1 retrial queue. A necessary and sufficient condition for this system stability is given. In the steady state, we derive the joint distribution of the state of the server and the number of customers in the retrial orbits. The explicit expressions of some performance measures are given. In addition, the steady-state distribution of the waiting time is discussed.     

A continuation and existence result for a boundary value problem on an unbounded domain arising for the electrical potential in a cylindrical double layer

Using a continuation theorem for contractions, the existence, uniqueness, and an approximation method for a class of nonlinear boundary value problems on an unbounded interval is obtained. The results apply in particular to the problem in the title.
