A Note on Algebraic Sums of Subsets of the Real Line
2002
AbstractWe investigate the algebraic sums of sets for a large class of invari-ant ˙-ideals and ˙- elds of subsets of the real line. We give a simpleexample of two Borel subsets of the real line such that its algebraicsum is not a Borel set. Next we show a similar result to Proposition 2from A. Kharazishvili paper [4]. Our results are obtained for ideals withcoanalytical bases. 1 Introduction We shall work in ZFC set theory. By !we denote natural numbers. By 4wedenote the symmetric di erence of sets. The cardinality of a set Xwe denoteby jXj. By R we denote the real line and by Q we denote rational numbers. IfAand Bare subsets of R n and b2R , then A+B= fa+b: a2A^b2Bgand A+ b= A+ fbg. Simila…
Sets of Efficiency in a Normed Space and Inner Product
1987
In a normed space X the distances to the points of a given set A being considered as the objective functions of a multicriteria optimization problem, we define four sets of efficiency (efficient, strictly efficient, weakly efficient and properly efficient points). Instead of studying properties of the sets of efficiency according to properties of the norm, we investigate an inverse problem: deduce properties of the norm of X from properties of the sets of efficiency, valid for every finite subset A of X.
Graph languages defined by systems of forbidden structures: A survey
1988
This paper deals with different ways of defining graph languages. These are the so-called forbidden structures. Some results on decision problems, their complexity, and set theoretic closure properties are scetched. A normal form, the minimal systems, are given. Finally the influence of the different kinds of forbidden structures on the descriptive power of the systems is shown.
Relations between structure and estimators in networks of dynamical systems
2011
The article main focus is on the identification of a graphical model from time series data associated with different interconnected entities. The time series are modeled as realizations of stochastic processes (representing nodes of a graph) linked together via transfer functions (representing the edges of the graph). Both the cases of non-causal and causal links are considered. By using only the measurements of the node outputs and without assuming any prior knowledge of the network topology, a method is provided to estimate the graph connectivity. In particular, it is proven that the method determines links to be present only between a node and its “kins”, where kins of a node consist of …
Graph Connectivity, Monadic NP and built-in relations of moderate degree
1995
It has been conjectured [FSV93] that an existential secondoder formula, in which the second-order quantification is restricted to unary relations (i.e. a Monadic NP formula), cannot express Graph Connectivity even in the presence of arbitrary built-in relations.
A Mesh-free Particle Method for Transient Full-wave Simulation
2007
A mesh-free particle method is presented for electromagnetic (EM) transient simulation. The basic idea is to obtain numerical solutions for the partial differential equations describing the EM problem in time domain, by using a set of particles, considered as spatial interpolation points of the field variables, arbitrarily placed in the problem domain and by avoiding the use of a regular mesh. Irregular problems geometry with diffused non-homogeneous media can be modeled only with an initial set of arbitrarily distributed particles. The time dependence is accounted for with an explicit finite difference scheme. Moreover the particle discretization can be improved during the process time ste…
Indagini teoriche e sperimentali su dissipatori ad attrito per edifici in acciaio in zona sismica
2017
The present paper presents the results of experimental analyses carried out to study the behaviour of slotted bolted connections (SBC) as friction steel dampers. The devices consist of bolted joints with slotted holes, which can be used in both steel and RC framed structures or, alternatively, into beam-column and column-foundation joints. The most suitable configurations to increase friction are investigated utilizing steel S355J0 plates and class 10.9HV high-strength bolts, under controlled pre-load and considering different types of surface treatment. Experimental tests are carried out making use of a universal testing machine, which allows mak-ing displacement-controlled tests. Once the…
Images and Preimages of Null Sets
2013
In this chapter we study conditions that guarantee that our mapping maps sets of measure zero to sets of measure zero. We start with the problem in general Sobolev spaces, after which we establish a better result for mappings of finite distortion. Then we introduce a natural class of counterexamples to statements of this type and finally we give a weak condition under which the preimage of a set of measure zero has measure zero for mappings of finite distortion.
Robust stabilisation of 2D state-delayed stochastic systems with randomly occurring uncertainties and nonlinearities
2013
This paper is concerned with the state feedback control problem for a class of two-dimensional (2D) discrete-time stochastic systems with time-delays, randomly occurring uncertainties and nonlinearities. Both the sector-like nonlinearities and the norm-bounded uncertainties enter into the system in random ways, and such randomly occurring uncertainties and nonlinearities obey certain mutually uncorrelated Bernoulli random binary distribution laws. Sufficient computationally tractable linear matrix inequality–based conditions are established for the 2D nonlinear stochastic time-delay systems to be asymptotically stable in the mean-square sense, and then the explicit expression of the desired…
A family of weakest link models for fiber strength distribution
2007
It is well known that the most widely used distribution function for fiber tensile strength, the two-parameter Weibull distribution, does not always adequately describe the experimentally observed fiber strength scatter and the strength dependence on fiber length. To remedy this discrepancy, modifications of the Weibull distribution have been proposed that, while providing a good empirical fit to the strength data, sometimes lack the theoretical appeal of the weakest link models. We derive a family of weakest link models based on the assumption of a two-stage failure process incorporating explicitly the probabilities of flaw initiation and the fiber fracture due to the largest flaw (i.e. th…
