Simple connections between generalized hypergeometric series and dilogarithms
1997
AbstractConnections between generalized hypergeometric series and dilogarithms are investigated. Some simple relations of an Appell's function and dilogarithms are found.
Themes within lecturers' views on the teaching of linear algebra
2019
Author's accepted manuscript (postprint). This is an Accepted Manuscript of an article published by Taylor & Francis in International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology on 25/09/2019, available online: http://www.tandfonline.com/10.1080/0020739X.2019.1668976. Available from 26/09/2020. This paper reports on themes that arose in an investigation of university lecturers’ views on the teaching of linear algebra. This focus on themes was the initial part of a study concentrating on four areas: What is important to teach in a first course in linear algebra? Are there teaching methods which are particularly suited for such a course? Are there tools that should/should not …
Oscillation criteria for even-order neutral differential equations
2016
Abstract We study oscillatory behavior of solutions to a class of even-order neutral differential equations relating oscillation of higher-order equations to that of a pair of associated first-order delay differential equations. As illustrated with two examples in the final part of the paper, our criteria improve a number of related results reported in the literature.
Sturmian words and overexponential codimension growth
2018
Abstract Let A be a non necessarily associative algebra over a field of characteristic zero satisfying a non-trivial polynomial identity. If A is a finite dimensional algebra or an associative algebra, it is known that the sequence c n ( A ) , n = 1 , 2 , … , of codimensions of A is exponentially bounded. If A is an infinite dimensional non associative algebra such sequence can have overexponential growth. Such phenomenon is present also in the case of Lie or Jordan algebras. In all known examples the smallest overexponential growth of c n ( A ) is ( n ! ) 1 2 . Here we construct a family of algebras whose codimension sequence grows like ( n ! ) α , for any real number α with 0 α 1 .
TANGENTIAL DEFORMATIONS ON FIBRED POISSON MANIFOLDS
2005
In a recent article, Cattaneo, Felder and Tomassini explained how the notion of formality can be used to construct flat Fedosov connections on formal vector bundles on a Poisson manifold $M$ and thus a star product on $M$ through the original Fedosov method for symplectic manifolds. In this paper, we suppose that $M$ is a fibre bundle manifold equipped with a Poisson tensor tangential to the fibers. We show that in this case the construction of Cattaneo-Felder- Tomassini gives tangential (to the fibers) star products.
Existence of doubling measures via generalised nested cubes
2012
Working on doubling metric spaces, we construct generalised dyadic cubes adapting ultrametric structure. If the space is complete, then the existence of such cubes and the mass distribution principle lead into a simple proof for the existence of doubling measures. As an application, we show that for each $\epsilon>0$ there is a doubling measure having full measure on a set of packing dimension at most $\epsilon$.
On electric and magnetic problems for vector fields in anisotropic nonhomogeneous media
1983
r= 3~2, initiated by Saranen [ 131. In the above, n is the outward-drawn unit normal to the boundary and A denotes the exterior product. According to the simple models for static magnetic fields (resp. electric fields) which are governed by (0.1) (resp. (0.2)), we call (0.1) the magnetic type problem and (0.2) the electric type problem. Considering bounded smooth domains a c R3, we discussed in [ 131, by means of an appropriate Hilbert space method, the solvability and the representation of the solutions for both problems (0.1) and (0.2). Such a new approach was necessary to cover the general nonhomogeneous cases where v and E are matrix-valued functions. Here our aim is twofold. First, we …
A geometrical criterion for nonexistence of constant-sign solutions for some third-order two-point boundary value problems
2020
We give a simple geometrical criterion for the nonexistence of constant-sign solutions for a certain type of third-order two-point boundary value problem in terms of the behavior of nonlinearity in the equation. We also provide examples to illustrate the applicability of our results.
Stochastic linearization of MDOF systems under parametric excitations
1992
Abstract The stochastic linearization approach is examined for non-linear systems subjected to parametric type excitations. It is shown that, for these systems too, stochastic linearization and Gaussian closure are two equivalent approaches if the former is applied to the coefficients of the Ito differential rule. A critical review of other stochastic linearization approaches is also presented and discussed by means of simple examples.
Modelling and Analysis of Nonstationary Vehicle-to-Infrastructure Channels with Time-Variant Angles of Arrival
2018
In mobile radio channel modelling, it is generally assumed that the angles of arrival (AOAs) are independent of time. This assumption does not in general agree with real-world channels in which the AOAs vary with the position of a moving receiver. In this paper, we first present a mathematical model for the time-variant AOAs. This model serves as the basis for the development of two nonstationary multipath fading channels models for vehicle-to-infrastructure communications. The statistical properties of both channel models are analysed with emphasis on the time-dependent autocorrelation function (ACF), time-dependent mean Doppler shift, time-dependent Doppler spread, and the Wigner-Ville sp…
