A decidable word problem without equivalent canonical term rewriting system

1989

We present a weak associative single-axiom system having the following property: the word problem is decidable with an efficient algorithm even though there does not exist any finite equivalent canonical term rewriting system.

Partially Square Graphs, Hamiltonicity and Circumference II

2000

Abstract Given a graph G, its partially square graph G∗ is a graph obtained by adding an edge uv for each pair u, v of vertices of G at distance 2 whenever the vertices u and v have a common neighbor x satisfying the condition NG(x) ⊆ NG[u] ∪ NG[v], where NG[x]= NG(x) ∪ {x}. In case G is a claw-free graph, G∗ is equal to G2, We define σ ∗ t = min{ ∑ x∈ d ∗ G (x): S is an independent set in G ∗ and ∣S∣ = t} , where d ∗ G (x) = ∣{y ∈ V∣ xy ∈ E(G∗)}∣ . We give for hamiltonicity and circumference new sufficient conditions depending on and we improve some known results.

Forbidden words in symbolic dynamics

2000

AbstractWe introduce an equivalence relation≃between functions from N to N. By describing a symbolic dynamical system in terms of forbidden words, we prove that the≃-equivalence class of the function that counts the minimal forbidden words of a system is a topological invariant of the system. We show that the new invariant is independent from previous ones, but it is not characteristic. In the case of sofic systems, we prove that the≃-equivalence of the corresponding functions is a decidable question. As a more special application, we show, by using the new invariant, that two systems associated to Sturmian words having “different slope” are not conjugate.

Regular Minimality and Thurstonian-type modeling

2009

Abstract A Thurstonian-type model for pairwise comparisons is any model in which the response (e.g., “they are the same” or “they are different”) to two stimuli being compared depends, deterministically or probabilistically, on the realizations of two randomly varying representations (perceptual images) of these stimuli. The two perceptual images in such a model may be stochastically interdependent but each has to be selectively dependent on its stimulus. It has been previously shown that all possible discrimination probability functions for same–different comparisons can be generated by Thurstonian-type models of the simplest variety, with independent percepts and deterministic decision ru…

Domains of accretive operators in Banach spaces

2016

LetD(A)be the domain of anm-accretive operatorAon a Banach spaceE. We provide sufficient conditions for the closure ofD(A)to be convex and forD(A)to coincide withEitself. Several related results and pertinent examples are also included.

Exact, efficient, and complete arrangement computation for cubic curves

2006

AbstractThe Bentley–Ottmann sweep-line method can compute the arrangement of planar curves, provided a number of geometric primitives operating on the curves are available. We discuss the reduction of the primitives to the analysis of curves and curve pairs, and describe efficient realizations of these analyses for planar algebraic curves of degree three or less. We obtain a complete, exact, and efficient algorithm for computing arrangements of cubic curves. Special cases of cubic curves are conics as well as implicitized cubic splines and Bézier curves.The algorithm is complete in that it handles all possible degeneracies such as tangential intersections and singularities. It is exact in t…

A note on best approximation in 0-complete partial metric spaces

2014

We study the existence and uniqueness of best proximity points in the setting of 0-complete partial metric spaces. We get our results by showing that the generalizations, which we have to consider, are obtained from the corresponding results in metric spaces. We introduce some new concepts and consider significant theorems to support this fact.
