A fuzzy goal programming method with imprecise goal hierarchy

Two most widely used approaches to treating goals of different importance in goal programming (GP) are: (1) weighted GP, where importance of goals is modelled using weights, and (2) preemptive priority GP, where a goal hierarchy is specified implying infinite trade-offs among goals placed in different levels of importance. These approaches may be too restrictive in modelling of real life decision making problems. In this paper, a novel fuzzy goal programming method is proposed, where the hierarchical levels of the goals are imprecisely defined. The imprecise importance relations among the goals are modelled using fuzzy relations. An additive achievement function is defined, which takes into consideration both achievement degrees of the goals and degrees of satisfaction of the fuzzy importance relations. Examples are given to illustrate the proposed method.     

Rough set based rule induction from two decision tables

We study rule induction from two decision tables as a basis of rough set analysis of more than one decision tables. We regard the rule induction process as enumerating minimal conditions satisfied with positive examples but unsatisfied with negative examples and/or with negative decision rules. From this point of view, we show that seven kinds of rule induction are conceivable for a single decision table. We point out that the set of all decision rules from two decision tables can be split in two levels: a first level decision rule is positively supported by a decision table and does not have any conflict with the other decision table and a second level decision rule is positively supported by both decision tables. To each level, we propose rule induction methods based on decision matrices. Through the discussions, we demonstrate that many kinds of rule induction are conceivable.     

Effect of cooling rate in [(Fe0.5Co0.5)0.75B0.2Si0.05]100-xNbx alloy system on magnetic properties

The effect of cooling rate on the thermal stability and soft magnetic properties of [(Fe_0.5Co_0.5)_0.75B_0.2Si_0.05]_100-xNb_x (x = 5, 6, 7, 8 at. %) system was investigated. The alloys were produced into the form of ribbon and cylindrical rod by melt-spinning and injection casting, respectively. Their structure, thermal, mechanical and soft magnetic properties were investigated by x-ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry, universal testing machine and vibrating sample magnetometer, respectively. All of the alloys were identified as fully amorphous by X-ray diffraction. It turned out that the rod samples had exceptionally high saturation fields reaching 3.0 kOe, which is key properties for sensor application. Also, among these Fe,Co-based samples, the Fe_35.25 Co_35.25 B_18.8 Si_4.70 Nb₆ ribbon exhibits the highest saturation magnetization with 142.1 emu/g.     

Moments of an exponential functional of random walks and permutations with given descent sets

The exponential functional of simple, symmetric random walks with negative drift is an infinite polynomial Y = 1 + ξ₁ + ξ₁ξ₂ + ξ₁ξ₂ξ₃ + ⋯ of independent and identically distributed non-negative random variables. It has moments that are rational functions of the variables μ _k = E(ξ ^k ) < 1 with universal coefficients. It turns out that such a coefficient is equal to the number of permutations with descent set defined by the multiindex of the coefficient. A recursion enumerates all numbers of permutations with given descent sets in the form of a Pascal-type triangle. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.

Separating the solution sets of analytical and polynomial systems

A linear inequality system with infinitely many constraints is polynomial (analytical) if its index set is a compact interval of the real line and all its coefficients are polynomial (analytical, respectively) functions of the index on this interval. This paper provides an example of analytical system whose solution set cannot be the solution set of any polynomial system.

LK property for σ-ideals

An ideal J of subsets of a Polish space X has (LK) property whenever for every sequence (An) of analytic sets in X, if lim supn∈HAn∉J for each infinite H then _?n∈G∉J for some infinite G. In this note we present a new class of σ-ideals with (LK) property.

Frattini子群循环的有限$p$-群中的非交换集和极大Abel子群

设G是一个群,X是G的一个子集,若对于任意x,y∈X且x≠y,都有xy≠yx,则称X是G的一个非交换集.进一步,如果对于G中的任意其它非交换子集Y,都有|X|≥|Y|,那么称X是G的一个极大非交换集.文中确定了Frattini子群循环的有限p-群中极大非交换集和极大Abel子群的势.
