The Asymptotic Behavior of Certain Birth Processes

We describe a connection between discrete birth process and a certain family of multivariate interpolation polynomials. This enables us to compute all asymptotic moments of the birth process, generalizing previously known results for the mean and variance. Received July 15, 2004     

Quantum Statistical Properties of k-Quantum Nonlinear Coherent States

In our preceding work, a class of k-quantum nonlinear coherent states, i.e., the k eigenstates of the powersBk (k ≥ 3) of the annihilation operator B=-a1/f(N) of f-oscillators, are introduced. In this paper, we introduce a newkind of higher-order squeezing and an antibunching effect. The quantum statistical properties of the k states are studied.The result shows that the M-th order [M = (n 1/2)k; n = 0, 1,...] squeezing effects exist in all of the k states when kis even. There is the antibunching effect in all of the k states.

Integrating factors, adjoint equations and Lagrangians

Integrating factors and adjoint equations are determined for linear and non-linear differential equations of an arbitrary order. The new concept of an adjoint equation is used for construction of a Lagrangian for an arbitrary differential equation and for any system of differential equations where the number of equations is equal to the number of dependent variables. The method is illustrated by considering several equations traditionally regarded as equations without Lagrangians. Noether's theorem is applied to the Maxwell equations.

New Cnoidal and Solitary Wave Solutions of Coupled Higher-Order Nonlinear SchrSdinger System in Nonlinear Optics

The coupled higher-order nonlinear Schroedinger system is a major subject in nonlinear optics as one of the nonlinear partial differential equation which describes the propagation of optical pulses in optic fibers. By using coupled amplitude-phase formulation, a series of new exact cnoidal and solitary wave solutions with different parameters are obtained, which may have potential application in optical communication.     

Third order efficiency implies fourth order efficiency: A resolution of the conjecture of J. K. Ghosh

Under suitable regularity conditions, it is shown that a third order asymptotically efficient estimator is fourth order asymptotically efficient in some class of estimators in the sense that the estimator has the most concentration probability in any symmetric interval around the true parameter up to the fourth order in the class. This is a resolution of the conjecture by Ghosh (1994, Higher Order Asymptotics, Institute of Mathematical Statistics, Hayward, California). It is also shown that the bias-adjusted maximum likelihood estimator is fourth order asymptotically efficient in the class.     

Activity coefficients for HCl+NiCl2+H2O at 298.15°K and effects of higher-order electrostatic terms

Activity coefficients for CHl in the system HCl+NiCl ₂ +H ₂ O at 298.15°K at constant total ionic strengths of 0.1, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, and 3.0 moles-kg ^–1 have been determined by an emf method. A comparison was made between Scatchard's and Pitzer's interpretations of mixed-electrolyte solutions for this system and six related systems. Preference can be given to Pitzer's method provided cognizance is taken of the effects of higher-order electrostatic terms beyond the Debye-Hückel approximation on the thermodynamic properties of asymmetrical mixtures.     

New exact solutions of a nonlinear integrable equation

Analytic solutions of the partial differential equations are needed to explain many phenomena seen in thermodynamics, aerodynamics, plasma physics, and other fields. In this paper, variational principle is analyzed of the integrable nonlinear Korteweg–de Vries (KdV) typed equation. In addition, exact solutions of this equation are obtained by using various methods such as direct integration, homogeneous balance method, Exp-function method, and Kudryashov method.
