A family of quasi-interpolatory wavelet system was introduced in [10], extending and unifing the biorthogonal Coiffman wavelet system. The corresponding refinable functions and wavelets have vanishing moment of a certain order (say, L), which is a key property for data representation and approximation. One of main advantages of this wavelet systems is that we can get optimal smoothness in the sense of smoothing factors in the scaling filters. In this paper, we first discuss the biorthogonality condition of the quisi-interpolatory wavelet system. Then, we study the properties of the scaling and wavelet filters, related to the polynomial reproduction and the vanishing moment respectively, which in fact determines the approximation orders of biorthogonal projections. In addition, we discuss the approximation orders of the wavelet projections.

This paper studies the iteration method of solving a type of second-order three-point boundary value problem with non-linear term f, which depends on the first order derivative. By using the upper and lower method, we obtain the sufficient conditions of the existence and uniqueness of solutions. Furthermore, the monotone iterative sequences generated by the method contribute to the minimum solution and the maximum solution. And the error estimate formula is also given under the condition of unique solution. We apply the solving process to a special boundary value problem, and the result is interesting.

In this paper, we study the convergence of relaxed two-stage multisplitting method using M-splittings or SOR multi splitting as inner splittings and an outer splitting for solving a linear system whose coefficient matrix is an M-matrix. We also provide numerical experiments for the convergence of the relaxed two-stage multisplitting method.

A second order nonlinear ordinary differential equation is obtained by solving the initial-boundary value problem of a class of elas-todynamics equations, which models the radially symmetric motion of a incompressible hyper-elastic solid sphere under a suddenly applied surface tensile load. Some new conclusions are presented. All existence conditions of nonzero solutions of the ordinary differential equation, which describes cavity formation and motion in the interior of the sphere, are presented. It is proved that the differential equation has singular periodic solutions only when the surface tensile load exceeds a critical value, in this case, a cavity would form in the interior of the sphere and the motion of the cavity with time would present a class of singular periodic oscillations, otherwise, the sphere remains a solid one. To better understand the results obtained in this paper, the modified Varga material is considered simultaneously as an example, and numerical simulations are given.

In this paper, a singularly perturbed reaction-convection-diffusion problem with two parameters is considered. A parameter-uniform error bound for the numerical derivative is derived. The numerical method considered here is a standard finite difference scheme on piecewise-uniform Shishkin mesh, which is fitted to both boundary and initial layers. Numerical results are provided to illustrate the theoretical results.

In this paper we first present a structure theorem for an infinite locally finite 3-connected VAP-free planar graph, and in connection with this result we study a possible classification of infinite locally finite planar graphs by reducing modulo finiteness.

The primary purpose of this paper is to prove the fuzzy version of Riesz theorem in n-normed linear space as a generalization of linear n-normed space. Also we study some properties of fuzzy n-norm and introduce a concept of fuzzy anti n-norm.

In this paper, we present the three-step mean value iterative scheme and prove that the iteration sequence converge strongly to a common element of the set of fixed points of a nonexpansive mappings and the set of the solutions of the variational inclusions under some mild conditions. The results presented in this paper extend, generalize and improve the results of Noor and Huang and some others.

Recently, Peng et al. proposed a primal-dual interior-point method with new search direction and self-regular proximity for LP. This new large-update method has the currently best theoretical performance with polynomial complexity of O(). In this paper we use this search direction to propose a primal-dual interior-point method for convex quadratic programming (QP). We overcome the difficulty in analyzing the complexity of the primal-dual interior-point methods for convex quadratic programming, and obtain the same polynomial complexity of O() for convex quadratic programming.

In this paper, we are concerned with a class of nonlinear second-order differential equations with a nonlinear damping term and forcing term: . Passage to more general class of equations allows us to remove a restrictive condition usually imposed on the nonlinearity. And, as a consequence, our results apply to wider classes of nonlinear differential equations. Some illustrative examples are considered.

In the present paper, one new generalized 'useful' information generating function and two new relative 'useful' information generating functions have been defined with their particular and limiting cases. It is interesting to note that differentiations of these information generating functions at t=0 or t=1 give some known and unknown generalized measures of useful information and 'useful' relative information. The information generating functions facilitates to compute various measures and that has been illustrated by applying these information generating functions for Uniform, Geometric and Exponential probability distributions.

Wolfe and Mond-Weir type dual to a nondifferentiable continuous programming containing support functions are formulated and duality is investigated for these two dual models under invexity and generalized invexity. A close relationship of our duality results with those of nondifferentiable nonlinear programming problem is also pointed out.

The linear system Ax = b will have (i) no solution, (ii) only one non-trivial (trivial) solution, or (iii) infinity of solutions. Our focus will be on cases (ii) and (iii). The mathematical models of many real-world problems give rise to (a) ill-conditioned linear systems, (b) singular linear systems (A is singular with all its linearly independent rows are sufficiently linearly independent), or (c) ill-conditioned singular linear systems (A is singular with some or all of its strictly linearly independent rows are near-linearly dependent). This article highlights the scope and need of a randomized algorithm for ill-conditioned/singular systems when a reasonably narrow domain of a solution vector is specified. Further, it stresses that with the increasing computing power, the importance of randomized algorithms is also increasing. It also points out that, for many optimization linear/nonlinear problems, randomized algorithms are increasingly dominating the deterministic approaches and, for some problems such as the traveling salesman problem, randomized algorithms are the only alternatives.

In this paper, we study a discrete Leslie-Gower one-predator two-prey model. By using the method of coincidence degree and some techniques, we obtain the existence of at least one positive periodic solution of the system. By linalization of the model at positive periodic solution and construction of Lyapunov function, sufficient conditions are obtained to ensure the global stability of the positive periodic solution. Numerical simulations are carried out to explain the analytical findings.

It is proved that if or , p is an odd prime, G is a finite group and has the same order components of M, then or .

In this paper, we introduce a modified three-step iteration scheme with errors for asymptotically nonexpansive mappings in the framework of uniformly convex Banach spaces. Weak and strong convergence theorems are established.

We point out: to make Hermtian matrices A and B satisfy Styan matrix inequality, the condition "positive definite property" demanded in the present literatures is not necessary. Furthermore, on the premise of abandoning positive definite property, we derive Styan matrix inequality of Hadamard product for inverse Hermitian matrices and the sufficient and necessary conditions that the equation holds in our paper.

We consider the linearized (approximated) problem for differentiable vector optimization problem, and then we establish equivalence results between a differentiable vector optimization problem and its associated linearized problem under the proper efficiency.

In this paper, we introduce and study a system of mixed variational inequalities in Banach spaces. By using J-proximal mapping and its Lipschitz continuity for a nonconvex, lower semicontinuous, subdifferentiable, proper functional, an iterative algorithm for computing the approximate solutions of system of mixed variational inequalities is suggested and analyzed. The convergence criteria of the iterative sequences generated by iterative algorithm is also discussed.

GPS is especially suitable for location systems in flat areas, but the availability of GPS is limited in highly urbanized and mountain areas, due to the nature of satellite communications. Dead reckoning is generally used to solve a location problem when a pedestrian is out of range of GPS coverage. To extend the apparent coverage of the GPS system for a hiker in mountain areas, we propose an integrated 3D location system that interpolates a 3D dead reckoning system based on information about contour lines. The speeds of hikers vary according to the inclination of the ground in sloped areas such as mountains. To reduce location measurement errors, we determine the angle of inclination based on the contour lines of the mountain, and use the speeds based on the inclination in the location system. The simulation results show that the proposed system is more accurate than the existing location system.

The aim of this paper is to present an explicit iteration method for finding a common fixed point of a finite family of strictly pseudocon-tractive mappings defined on q-uniformly smooth and uniformly convex Banach spaces.

We define a (, )-fuzzy strongly preopen set on a fuzzy bitopological space and characterize a fuzzy pairwise strong precontinuous mapping and a fuzzy pairwise strong preopen mapping(a fuzzy pairwise strong preclosed mapping) on a fuzzy bitopological space.

Using the notion of intuitionistic fuzzy subgroups, its roughness is discussed. With respect to a congruence relation on a group, several properties about the lower and upper approximations of a subset of a group are investigated.

In this paper, we investigate the invariant interval, periodic character, semicycle and global attractivity of all positive solutions of the equation , n = 0, 1, ..., where the parameters p, q, r and the initial conditions , ..., , are positive real numbers, k {1, 2, 3, ...}. It is worth to mention that our results solve the open problem proposed by Kulenvic and Ladas in their monograph [Dynamics of Second Order Rational Difference Equations: with Open Problems and Conjectures, Chapman & Hall/CRC, Boca Raton, 2002]

In allelic model , is a P-martingale for diffusion operator L under the certain conditions. We can also obtain a new diffusion operator for diffusion coefficient and we prove that unique solution for -martingale problem exists.

T.H. Kim, H.K. Xu, [Convergence of the modified Mann's iteration method for asymptotically strict pseudo-contractions, Nonlinear Anal.(2007),doi:l0.l016/j.na.2007.02.029.] proved the strong convergence for asymptotically strict pseudo-contractions by the classical CQ iterative method. In this paper, we apply the monotone CQ iterative method to modify the classical CQ iterative method of T.H. Kim, H.K. Xu, and to obtain the strong convergence theorems for asymptotically strict pseudo-contractions. In the proved process of this paper, Cauchy sequences method is used, so we complete the proof without using the demi-closedness principle, Opial's condition or others about weak topological technologies. In addition, we use a ingenious technology to avoid defining that F(T) is bounded. On the other hand, we relax the restriction on the control sequence of iterative scheme.

Recently, Xue et al. [Computers and Mathematics with Applications 55 (2008) 1215-1224] proposed a formula for the expected value of a function of a fuzzy variable based on the assumption that the fuzzy variable has a continuous membership function. In conclusion, they remained the case where the membership function of the fuzzy variable is discontinuous for the future research, and then expected to get similar results. Thus this note is to propose a new formula for the expected value of a function of a general fuzzy variable which is not restricted on having a continuous membership function. Furthermore, we give an example which cannot be applied to the formula that Xue et al. proposed. We also use the same example given by Xue et al. to show how to apply the new formula.

This paper deals with a delayed SEIRS epidemic model with pulse vaccination and crowded incidence rate. Moreover, the case of vertical and horizontal transmission is considered. By using the discrete dynamical system determined by the stroboscopic map, the exact infection-free periodic solution of the SEIRS model is obtained. Further, by employing the comparison arguments, we prove that under the condition that < 1 the infection-free periodic solution is globally attractive, and that under the condition that > 1 the disease is uniformly persistent, which means that after some period of time the disease will become endemic.

The concepts of fuzzy pseudo ideals (resp. fuzzy pseudo p-ideals, associative fuzzy pseudo ideals, fuzzy pseudo q-ideals and fuzzy pseudo a-ideals) in a pseudo BCI-algebra are introduced, and related properties are investigated. Conditions for a fuzzy pseudo ideal to be a fuzzy pseudo p-ideal (resp. fuzzy pseudo q-ideal) are provided. A characterization and properties of an associative fuzzy pseudo ideal are given.

We call a cycle C be a small cycle if the length of C equals to 3 or 4. In this paper, we obtain two sufficient conditions to ensure the existence of vertex-disjoint small cycles in graph and propose several problems.

In addition, we obtained that max completely as if and only if < and under identically distributed case and some corollaries are obtained.

In possibility framework, we propose two risk measures named Fuzzy Value-at-Risk and Fuzzy Conditional Value-at-Risk, based on Credibility measure. Two portfolio optimization models for fuzzy portfolio selection problems are formulated. Then a chaos genetic algorithm based on fuzzy simulation is designed, and finally computational results show that the two risk measures can play a role in possibility space similar to Value-at-Risk and Conditional Value-at-Risk in probability space.

The special conformally flatness is a generalization of a sub-projective space. B. Y. Chen and K. Yano ([4]) showed that every canal hypersurface of a Euclidean space is a special conformally flat space. In this paper, we study the conditions for the base space B is special conformally flat in the conharmonically flat warped product space .

Goodman([3]) presented the question of finding a best possible upper bound of the form , where t(G) denote the number of triangles in given graph G. In this, the form of squares of degrees is appeared and many researches have been pursued as an application related to this. Here, we would like to deal with corollary related to the results of Nikiforov([6]).

At least two positive solutions of a first-order periodic boundary value problem with impulse are obtained by establishing a new cone and the theorem of fixed point index. And at the end of this paper we give an example to illustrate the application of our main results.

In this paper we study the strong law of large numbers for weighted average of pairwise negatively quadrant dependent random variables. This result extends that of Jamison et al.(Convergence of weight averages of independent random variables Z. Wahrsch. Verw Gebiete(1965) 4 40-44) to the negative quadrant dependence.

In this paper, the singular three-point boundary value problem is studied, where 0 < < 1, > 0, f(t,u) may be singular at u = 0. By mixed monotone method, the existence and uniqueness are established for the above singular three-point boundary value problems. The theorems obtained are very general and complement previous know results.

The shrink parameter in ridge regression may be contaminated by outlying points. We propose robust cross validation scores in ridge regression instead of classical cross validation. We use robust location estimators such as median, least trimmed squares, absolute mean for robust cross validation scores. The robust scores have global robustness. Simulations are performed to show the effectiveness of the proposed estimators.

For a family of graphs and an integer k, we denote by the corresponding k-Ramsey number, which is defined to be the smallest integer n such that every k-coloring of the edges of contains a monochromatic copy of a graph in . The local k-Ramsey number and the mean k-Ramsey number are defined analogously. Let be the family of non-bipartite graphs and be the family of all trees on n vertices. In this paper we prove that , and < = for all .

The non-rigid molecule group theory in which the dynamical symmetry operations are defined as physical operations is applied to deduce the character table of the full non-rigid molecule group (f-NRG) of 2,3,5,6-Tetramethylpyrazine The f-NRG of this molecule is seen to be isomorphic to the group , where is the cyclic group of order n, of order 324 which has 45 conjugacy classes. We determine the some properties and relations between characters of the group. Also, we examine the symmetry group of this molecule and show that its symmetry group is .

In this paper, we consider p-Laplace equation which models the turbulent flow in a porous medium. Using a continuation principle (cf. [R. and J. Mawhin, Periodic solutions for nonlinear systems with p-Lplacian-like operators, J. Diff. Equa. 145(1998), 367-393]), we prove the existence of solutions for p-Laplace equation subject to periodic boundary conditions, under some sign and growth conditions for f. With the help of Leray-Schauder degree theory, the multiplicity of periodic solutions for p-Laplace equation is obtained under the similar conditions above and some known results are improved.

In this paper, spectral scheme based on Hermite interpolation for solving partial differential equations is presented. The idea of this Hermite spectral method comes from the spectral method on arbitrary grids of Carpenter and Gottlieb [J. Comput. Phys. 129(1996) 74-86] using the Lagrange interpolation.
