An optimal locating-dominating set in the infinite triangular grid

Assume that G=(V,E) is an undirected graph, and C⊆V. For every v∈V, we denote by I(v) the set of all elements of C that are within distance one from v. If all the sets I(v) for v∈V?C are non-empty, and pairwise different, then C is called a locating-dominating set. The smallest possible density of a locating-dominating set in the infinite triangular grid is shown to be .     

On the packing chromatic number of some lattices

For a positive integer k, a k-packing in a graph G is a subset A of vertices such that the distance between any two distinct vertices from A is more than k. The packing chromatic number of G is the smallest integer m such that the vertex set of G can be partitioned as V₁,V₂,…,V_m where V_i is an i-packing for each i. It is proved that the planar triangular lattice T and the three-dimensional integer lattice Z³ do not have finite packing chromatic numbers.     

A note on “A new method for solving fully fuzzy linear programming problems”

This note shows that solving fully fuzzy linear programming (FFLP) model presented by Kumar et al. [A. Kumar, J. Kaur, P. Singh, A new method for solving fully fuzzy linear programming problems, Appl. Math. Model. 35 (2011) 817–823] needs some corrections to make the model well in general. A new version is provided in this note. A simple example is also presented to demonstrate the new form.     

Rank-one nonincreasing mappings on triangular matrices and some related preserver problems

Let T_n (F) be the algebra of all n×n upper triangular matrices over an arbitrary field F. We first characterize those rank-one nonincreasing mappings ψ: T_n (F)→T_m (F)n?m such that ψ(I_n ) is of rank n. We next deduce from this result certain types of singular rank-one r-potent preservers and nonzero r-potent preservers on T_n (F). Characterizations of certain classes of homomorphisms and semi-homomorphisms on T_n (F) are also given.     

A study of properties of adaptive quadratic grids for three-dimensional near-surface field computations

Curved geometries and the corresponding near-surface fields typically require a large number of linear computational elements. High-order numerical solvers have been primarily used with low-order meshes. There is a need for curved, high-order computational elements. Typical near-surface meshes consist of hexahedral and/or prismatic elements. The present work studies the employment of quadratic meshes that are relatively coarse for field simulations. Directionally quadratic high-order elements are proposed for the near-surface field regions. The quadratic meshes are compared with the conventional low-order ones in terms of accuracy and efficiency. The cases considered include closed surface volume calculations, as well as computation of gradients of several analytic fields. A special method of adaptive local quadratic meshes is proposed and evaluated. Truncation error analysis for quadratic grids yields comparison with the conventional linear hexahedral/prismatic meshes, which are subject to typical distortions such as stretching, skewness, and torsion.
