The semi‐iterative method applied to the hyper‐power iteration

The semi‐iterative method (SIM) is applied to the hyper‐power (HP) iteration, and necessary and sufficient conditions are given for the convergence of the semi‐iterative–hyper‐power (SIM–HP) iteration. The root convergence rate is computed for both the HP and SIM–HP methods, and the quotient convergence rate is given for the HP iteration. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Some alternating sums of Lucas numbers

We consider alternating sums of squares of odd and even terms of the Lucas sequence and alternating sums of their products. These alternating sums have nice representations as products of appropriate Fibonacci and Lucas numbers.     

Minimal expansions in redundant number systems: Fibonacci bases and Greedy algorithms

We study digit expansions with arbitrary integer digits in base q (q integer) and the Fibonacci base such that the sum of the absolute values of the digits is minimal. For the Fibonacci case, we describe a unique minimal expansion and give a greedy algorithm to compute it. Additionally, transducers to calculate minimal expansions from other expansions are given. For the case of even integer bases q, similar results are given which complement those given in [6].     

Searching in trees

In (Discrete Math. 17 (1977)181) Rivest introduced the search complexity of binary trees and proved that among all binary trees with a fixed search complexity the smallest ones are the so-called Fibonacci trees. This result is extended for q-trees. The structure of the smallest q-trees is again Fibonacci-like but more complicated than in the binary case. In addition an upper bound for the asymptotic growth of these trees is given.     

Quotient probabilistic normed spaces and completeness results

We introduce the concept of quotient in PN spaces and give some examples. We prove some theorems with regard to the completeness of a quotient.     

Examples of non-Kähler Hamiltonian circle manifolds with the strong Lefschetz property

In this paper we construct six-dimensional compact non-Kähler Hamiltonian circle manifolds which satisfy the strong Lefschetz property themselves but nevertheless have a non-Lefschetz symplectic quotient. This provides the first known counterexamples to the question whether the strong Lefschetz property descends to the symplectic quotient. We also give examples of Hamiltonian strong Lefschetz circle manifolds which have a non-Lefschetz fixed point submanifold. In addition, we establish a sufficient and necessary condition for a finitely presentable group to be the fundamental group of a strong Lefschetz manifold. We then use it to show the existence of Lefschetz four-manifolds with non-Lefschetz finite covering spaces.     

Fuzzy HX环的推广

为改进Fuzzy HX环的结果,使之包含Fuzzy商环,提出了弱Fuzzy HX环的概念,研究了它的性质与结构,并重新讨论了拟Fuzzy商环,证明了在正则条件下拟Fuzzy商环与弱Fuzzy HX环的统一性：同时也得到了一致弱Fuzzy HX环与普通Fuzzy商环的关系。     

Quotient normed cones

Given a normed cone (X, p) and a subconeY, we construct and study the quotient normed cone (X/Y,p) generated byY. In particular we characterize the bicompleteness of (X/Y, ‖·‖ ^p ,p) in terms of the bicompleteness of (X, p), and prove that the dual quotient cone ((X/Y)^*, || · ‖·‖^p,p) can be identified as a distinguished subcone of the dual cone (X ^*, || · ||_{p, u}). Furthermore, some parts of the theory are presented in the general setting of the spaceCL(X, Y) of all continuous linear mappings from a normed cone (X, p) to a normed cone (Y, q), extending several well-known results related to open continuous linear mappings between normed linear spaces.
