部分相干光束通过硬边光阑的推广光束传输M2因子

给出部分相干光通过硬边光阑后的强度二阶矩的计算公式，由此可得到部分相干光通过硬边光阑后的推广光束传输M^2因子。以部分相干高斯－谢尔模型光束为例，推导出相应的M^2因子，并作了数值计算和分析讨论。     

Fuzzy集的基数

关于Fuzzy集的基数，[1]中曾对有限支集的Fuzzy集以及极苛刻条件下的无限Fuzzy集给出过一种定义。但是，正如本文将要指出的那样，该定义是不合理的。本文将从研究Fuzzy映射入手，给出Fuzzy集基数的一般性定义。基于这一定义，不但得到有关基数的大部分结论，而且有其自身的特殊性。     

A note on the growth of topological Sidon sets

We give an estimate for the number of elements in the intersection of topological Sidon sets inR ⁿ with compact convex subsets and deduce a necessary and sufficient conditions for an orbit of a linear transformation ofR ⁿ to be a topological Sidon set.     

The intertwining lifting theorem for ordered groups

Sz.-Nagy's dilation theorem for a contraction on a Hilbert space has been extended by Mlak to the case of a contraction semigroup whose indices are the positive elements of a totally ordered discrete group. We generalize to this case the intertwining lifting theorem of Sz.-Nagy and Foias. Some previous interpolation results on ordered groups are obtained as consequences.     

Partially Strictly Monotone and Nonlinear Penalty Functions for Constrained Mathematical Programs

We introduce the concept of partially strictly monotone functions and apply it to construct a class of nonlinear penalty functions for a constrained optimization problem. This class of nonlinear penalty functions includes some (nonlinear) penalty functions currently used in the literature as special cases. Assuming that the perturbation function is lower semi-continuous, we prove that the sequence of optimal values of nonlinear penalty problems converges to that of the original constrained optimization problem. First-order and second-order necessary optimality conditions of nonlinear penalty problems are derived by converting the optimality of penalty problems into that of a smooth constrained vector optimization problem. This approach allows for a concise derivation of optimality conditions of nonlinear penalty problems. Finally, we prove that each limit point of the second-order stationary points of the nonlinear penalty problems is a second-order stationary point of the original constrained optimization problem.     

Modification of Spatial Coherence by Means of Low-Order Zernike-Mode Adaptive Optics

Spatial coherence of the field modified by low-order adaptive optics is analyzed to establish a theoretical basis for the recent idea of using adaptive optics as a spatial coherence modifier. In this context low-order adaptive optics has the ability to correct some of the low-order aberrations specified by Zernike polynomials. The initial field to be modified is assumed to be a spatially partially coherent one resulting from phase disturbance. It is demonstrated, as in the previous study, that low-order adaptive optics serves to enhance the spatial coherence of the resultant field and that the effect of the enhancement becomes stronger as the spatial coherence of the initially partially coherent field increases. Potential applications of low-order adaptive optics as a spatial coherence modifier are briefly discussed.     

About the Notion of Semiring of Sets

We introduce a generalized notion of semiring and prove that all known properties that semirings have according to the old definition are preserved.     

Measure of Ordering in Statistical Systems

In this paper, we introduce a phenomenological measure of ordering in statistical systems. Using this characteristic, we construct a formal model of a system evolving according to the law of steepest ascent as the control parameter increases.     

All Subvarieties of ℒpq Have Finite Bases of Identities

We consider the varieties of lattice ordered groups with the identity of commutation of the nth powers of elements. We establish that every such l-variety with n=pq, where p and q are distinct prime numbers, has a finite basis of identities.
