Some Identities For The Glasser Transform And Their Applications, Faruk Uçar Jan 2015

Some Identities For The Glasser Transform And Their Applications, Faruk Uçar

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In the present paper we consider a new integral transform, denoted by $\mathcal{G}_{\nu}$, which may be regarded as a generalization of the well-known transform due to Glasser. Many identities involving this transform are given. By making use of these identities, a number of new Parseval--Goldstein type identities are obtained for these and many other well-known integral transforms. The identities proven in this paper are shown to give rise to useful corollaries for evaluating infinite integrals of special functions. Some examples are also given as illustrations of the results presented here.

This work is concerned with the existence of positive solutions to a nonlinear nonlocal first-order multipoint problem. Here the nonlinearity is allowed to take on negative values, not only positive values.


On Certain Minimal Non-$\Mathfrak{Y}$-Groups For Some Classes $\Mathfrak{Y}$, Ahmet Arikan, Selami̇ Ercan Jan 2015

On Certain Minimal Non-$\Mathfrak{Y}$-Groups For Some Classes $\Mathfrak{Y}$, Ahmet Arikan, Selami̇ Ercan

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

Let $\{\theta_n\}_{n=1}^\infty$ be a sequence of words. If there exists a positive integer $n$ such that $\theta_m(G)=1$ for every $m\geq n$, then we say that $G$ satisfies (*) and denote the class of all groups satisfying (*) by $\mathfrak{X}_{\{\theta_n\}_{n=1}^\infty}$. If for every proper subgroup $K$ of $G$, $K\in \mathfrak{X}_{\{\theta_n\}_{n=1}^\infty}$ but $G\notin\mathfrak{X}_{\{\theta_n\}_{n=1}^\infty}$, then we call $G$ a minimal non-$\mathfrak{X}_{\{\theta_n\}_{n=1}^\infty}$-group. Assume that $G$ is an infinite locally finite group with trivial center and $\theta_i(G)=G$ for all $i\geq 1$. In this case we mainly prove that there exists a positive integer $t$ such that for every proper normal subgroup $N$ of $G$, either …

The Prime Tournaments $T$ With $\Mid\! W_{5}(T) \!\Mid = \Mid\! T \!\Mid -2$, Houmem Belkhechine, Imed Boudabbous, Kaouthar Hzami

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

We consider a tournament $T=(V, A)$. For $X\subseteq V$, the subtournament of $T$ induced by $X$ is $T[X] = (X, A \cap (X \times X))$. A module of $T$ is a subset $X$ of $V$ such that for $a, b\in X$ and $ x\in V\setminus X$, $(a,x)\in A$ if and only if $(b,x)\in A$. The trivial modules of $T$ are $\emptyset$, $\{x\}(x\in V)$, and $V$. A tournament is prime if all its modules are trivial. For $n\geq 2$, $W_{2n+1}$ denotes the unique prime tournament defined on $\{0,\dots,2n\}$ such that $W_{2n+1}[\{0,\dots,2n-1\}]$ is the usual total order. Given a prime tournament $T$, …


Moduli Spaces Of Arrangements Of 11 Projective Lines With A Quintuple Point, Meirav Amram, Cheng Gong, Mina Teicher, Wan-Yuan Xu Jan 2015

Moduli Spaces Of Arrangements Of 11 Projective Lines With A Quintuple Point, Meirav Amram, Cheng Gong, Mina Teicher, Wan-Yuan Xu

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In this paper, we try to classify moduli spaces of arrangements of 11 lines with quintuple points. We show that moduli spaces of arrangements of 11 lines with quintuple points can consist of more than 2 connected components. We also present defining equations of the arrangements whose moduli spaces are not irreducible after taking quotients by the complex conjugation by Maple and supply some "potential Zariski pairs".


Uniquely Strongly Clean Triangular Matrices, Huanyin Chen, Orhan Gürgün, Handan Kose Jan 2015

Uniquely Strongly Clean Triangular Matrices, Huanyin Chen, Orhan Gürgün, Handan Kose

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

A ring $R$ is uniquely (strongly) clean provided that for any $a\in R$ there exists a unique idempotent $e\in R$ \big($e\in comm(a)$\big) such that $a-e\in U(R)$. We prove, in this note, that a ring $R$ is uniquely clean and uniquely bleached if and only if $R$ is abelian, ${\mathbb{T}}_{n}(R)$ is uniquely strongly clean for all $n\geq 1$, i.e. every $n\times n$ triangular matrix over $R$ is uniquely strongly clean, if and only if $R$ is abelian, and ${\mathbb{T}}_{n}(R)$ is uniquely strongly clean for some $n\geq 1$. In the commutative case, more explicit results are obtained.


Quadratic Recursive Towers Of Function Fields Over $\Mathbb{F}_2$, Henning Stichtenoth, Seher Tutdere Jan 2015

Quadratic Recursive Towers Of Function Fields Over $\Mathbb{F}_2$, Henning Stichtenoth, Seher Tutdere

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

Let $\FF=(F_n)_{n\geq 0}$ be a quadratic recursive tower of algebraic function fields over the finite field $\F_2$, i.e. $\FF$ is a recursive tower such that $[F_n:F_{n-1}]=2$ for all $n\geq 1$. For any integer $r\geq 1$, let $\beta_r(\FF):=\lim_{n\to \infty} B_r(F_n)/g(F_n)$, where $B_r(F_n)$ is the number of places of degree $r$ and $g(F_n)$ is the genus, respectively, of $F_n/\F_2$. In this paper we give a classification of all rational functions $f(X,Y)\in \F_2(X,Y)$ that may define a quadratic recursive tower $\FF$ over $\F_2$ with at least one positive invariant $\beta_r(\FF)$. Moreover, we estimate $\beta_1(\FF)$ for each such tower.

Split Extension Classifiers In The Category Of Precrossed Modules Of Commutative Algebras, Yaşar Boyaci, Tufan Sai̇t Kuzpinari, Enver Önder Uslu

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

We construct an actor of a precat$^{1}$-algebra and then by using the natural equivalence between the categories of precat$^{1}$-algebras and that of precrossed modules, we construct the split extension classifier of the corresponding precrossed module, which gives rise to the representability of actions in the category of precrossed modules of commutative algebras under certain conditions.


Defect Polynomials And Tutte Polynomials Of Some Asymmetric Graphs, Eunice Mphako-Banda, Toufik Mansour Jan 2015

Defect Polynomials And Tutte Polynomials Of Some Asymmetric Graphs, Eunice Mphako-Banda, Toufik Mansour

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

We give explicit expressions of the Tutte polynomial of asymmetric complete flower graph and asymmetric incomplete flower graph. We then express these Tutte polynomials as generating functions and decode some valuable information about the asymmetric complete flower graph and asymmetric incomplete flower graph. Furthermore, we convert the Tutte polynomials into coboundary polynomials and give explicit expressions of the $k$-defect polynomials of these structures. Finally, we conclude that nonisomorphic graphs in this class have the same Tutte polynomials, the same chromatic polynomials, and the same defect polynomials.


On Pseudohyperbolic Space Motions, Tunahan Turhan, Nural Yüksel, Ni̇hat Ayyildiz Jan 2015

On Pseudohyperbolic Space Motions, Tunahan Turhan, Nural Yüksel, Ni̇hat Ayyildiz

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In the present paper, the geometrical instantaneous invariants of the motion $H_{_{m}}/H_{_{f}}\ $in dual Lorentzian $3$-space are determined. Depending on this, the dual Lorentzian instantaneous screw axis of the motion of $K_{_{m}}$ with respect to the dual pseudohyperbolic space $K_{_{m}}$ is constructed. On the other hand, we show that, in each position of $H_{_{m}}$, the fixed and moving axodes have the instantaneous screw axis of this position in common. We also give relations between the geodetic curvature and the curvature of the polodes.


Classification Of Metallic Shaped Hypersurfaces In Real Space Forms, Ci̇han Özgür, Ni̇hal Yilmaz Özgür Jan 2015

Classification Of Metallic Shaped Hypersurfaces In Real Space Forms, Ci̇han Özgür, Ni̇hal Yilmaz Özgür

We define the notion of a metallic shaped hypersurface and give the full classification of metallic shaped hypersurfaces in real space forms. We deduce that every metallic shaped hypersurface in real space forms is a semisymmetric hypersurface.


Generalized Chebyshev Polynomials Of The Second Kind, Mohammad A. Alqudah Jan 2015

Generalized Chebyshev Polynomials Of The Second Kind, Mohammad A. Alqudah

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

We characterize the generalized Chebyshev polynomials of the second kind (Chebyshev-II), and then we provide a closed form of the generalized Chebyshev-II polynomials using the Bernstein basis. These polynomials can be used to describe the approximation of continuous functions by Chebyshev interpolation and Chebyshev series and how to efficiently compute such approximations. We conclude the paper with some results concerning integrals of the generalized Chebyshev-II and Bernstein polynomials.


Existence Of Unique Solution To Switchedfractional Differential Equations With $P$-Laplacian Operator, Xiufeng Guo Jan 2015

Existence Of Unique Solution To Switchedfractional Differential Equations With $P$-Laplacian Operator, Xiufeng Guo

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In this paper, we study a class of nonlinear switched systems of fractional order with $p$-Laplacian operator. By applying a fixed point theorem for a concave operator on a cone, we obtain the existence and uniqueness of a positive solution for an integral boundary value problem with switched nonlinearity under some suitable assumptions. An illustrative example is included to show that the obtained results are effective.

Special Proper Pointwise Slant Surfaces Of A Locally Product Riemannian Manifold, Mehmet Gülbahar, Erol Kiliç, Semra Saraçoğlu Çeli̇k

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

The structure of pointwise slant submanifolds in an almost product Riemannian manifold is investigated and the special proper pointwise slant surfaces of a locally product manifold are introduced. A relation involving the squared mean curvature and the Gauss curvature of pointwise slant surface of a locally product manifold is proved. Two examples of proper pointwise slant surfaces of a locally product manifold, one of which is special and the other one is not special, are given.


Optimality Criteria For Sum Of Fractional Multiobjective Optimization Problem With Generalized Invexity, Deepak Bhati, Pitam Singh Jan 2015

Optimality Criteria For Sum Of Fractional Multiobjective Optimization Problem With Generalized Invexity, Deepak Bhati, Pitam Singh

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

The sum of a fractional program is a nonconvex optimization problem in the field of fractional programming and it is difficult to solve. The development of research is restricted to single objective sums of fractional problems only. The branch and bound methods/algorithms are developed in the literature for this problem as a single objective problem. The theoretical and algorithmic development for sums of fractional programming problems is restricted to single objective problems. In this paper, some new optimality conditions are proposed for the sum of a fractional multiobjective optimization problem with generalized invexity. The optimality conditions are obtained by using …

Some Properties Of A Class Of Analytic Functions Defined Bygeneralized Struve Functions, Mohsan Raza, Ni̇hat Yağmur

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

The aim of this paper is to define \ a new operator by using the generalized Struve functions $\sum\limits_{n=0}^{\infty }\frac{\left( -c/4\right) ^{n}}{\left( 3/2\right) _{n}\left( k\right) _{n}}z^{n+1}$ with $% k$ $=p+$ $\left( b+2\right) /2\neq 0,-1,-2,\ldots $ and $b,c,k\in \mathbb{C} $. By using this operator we define a subclass of analytic functions. We discuss some properties of this class such as inclusion problems, radius problems, and some other interesting properties related to this operator.

In this paper we prove that spacelike and timelike magnetic trajectories corresponding to the para-K\"ahler 2-form on a para-K\"ahler manifold $(M,\p,g)$ are circles on $M$. We then classify all para-K\"ahler magnetic curves in pseudo-Euclidean spaces ${\mathbb{E}}^{2n}_n$.


Equivalencies Between Beta-Shifts And S-Gap Shifts, Dawoud Ahmadi Dastjerdi, Somayyeh Jangjoo Shaldehi Jan 2015

Equivalencies Between Beta-Shifts And S-Gap Shifts, Dawoud Ahmadi Dastjerdi, Somayyeh Jangjoo Shaldehi

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

Let X_{\beta} be a \beta -shift for \beta \in (1, 2] and X(S) a S-gap shift for S\subseteq N \cup {0}. We show that if X_\beta is SFT (resp. sofic), then there is a unique S-gap shift conjugate (resp. right-resolving almost conjugate) to this X_\beta, and if X_\beta is not SFT, then no S-gap shift is conjugate to X_\beta. For any synchronized X_{\beta} , an X(S) exists such that X_{\beta} and X(S) have a common synchronized 1-1 a.e. extension. For a nonsynchronized X_\beta, this common extension is just an almost Markov synchronized system with entropy preserving maps. We then compute …

Simultaneous Analysis Of Losartan, Its Active Metabolite, And Hydrochlorothiazide In Human Plasma By A Uplc-Ms/Ms Method, Priyanka A. Shah, Primal Sharma, Jaivik V. Shah, Mallika Sanyal, Pranav S. Shrivastav

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

A selective and sensitive ultra performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method was developed for the simultaneous determination of losartan (LOS), EXP-3174, which is an active metabolite LOS carboxylic acid, and hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) in human plasma. Solid-phase extraction was carried out on Oasis HLB cartridges with 100 $\mu $L of plasma to give an extraction recovery in the range of 88.5%-102.5% for the three analytes. Chromatography on a BEH C18 column afforded baseline separation of all the analytes within 2.4 min using 1.0% formic acid in water and acetonitrile (15:85, v/v) as the mobile phase. Quantitation was performed with multiple reaction …


Conversion Of Racemic Allylic Hydroperoxides Into Corresponding Chiral 1/2,3-Triols By Using Catalytic Oso$_{4}$ And Chiral Cinchona Ligands In The Absence Of Co-Oxidant, Haydar Göksu, Mehmet Serdar Gülteki̇n Jan 2015

Conversion Of Racemic Allylic Hydroperoxides Into Corresponding Chiral 1/2,3-Triols By Using Catalytic Oso$_{4}$ And Chiral Cinchona Ligands In The Absence Of Co-Oxidant, Haydar Göksu, Mehmet Serdar Gülteki̇n

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

For the first time, removal of oxygen atoms from allylic hydroperoxide functionality and reintroduction to the double bond was achieved using catalytic OsO$_{4}$ and chiral cinchona alkaloid derivatives in an acetone-water mixture to give corresponding chiral 1/2,3-triol with an enantioselectivity up to 99% ee. The hydroperoxide group was used as both a co-oxidant and a source of hydroxyl groups. This protocol is thought to have potential to provide opportunities for chiral synthesis of 1/2,3-triols from corresponding allylic hydroperoxides in the absence of co-oxidant in one stage for the first time in the literature.


A Water-Soluble Perylene Derivative For Live-Cell Imaging, Yongshan Ma, Fengxia Zhang, Jinfeng Zhang, Tianyi Jiang Jan 2015

A Water-Soluble Perylene Derivative For Live-Cell Imaging, Yongshan Ma, Fengxia Zhang, Jinfeng Zhang, Tianyi Jiang

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Glutamic functionalized water-soluble perylene diimide, N, N'-di (L-glutamic amine)-perylene-3,4,9,10-tetracarboxylic diimide (GAPTCD) has three absorbance maxima at 469, 498, and 534 nm and two emission peaks at 550 and 587 nm. Owing to the highly negative electrostatic potential of the perylene plane, the perylene derivative showed good water solubility and strong fluorescence in alkali and neutral solutions. Both the absorbance and emission intensities decreased with the decreasing of pH from 9.66 to 5.92. This could be ascribed to the $\pi -\pi $ stacking produced by H$^{+}$ at the carboxyl group due to its electron accepting nature. Electrostatic potential maps also indicated …

New Tetrazolic Azo Dyes Linked To (Thio)Barbiturate And Electron-Rich Aromatics As Potential Antimicrobial Agents, Nader Noroozi Pesyan, Davoud Soleimani, Nima Hosseini Jazani

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

A series of new tetrazolic azo dyes based on (thio)barbiturate and electron-rich aromatics were synthesized in excellent yield. The electron-donor and tetrazole ring moieties were linked by a $p$-phenylazo bridge and the structural characterizations were achieved by FT IR, $^{1}$H and $^{13}$C NMR, and UV-visible spectrometry. The antibacterial activity of the synthesized compounds was tested against gram-positive and gram-negative bacterial strains, namely \textit{Acinetobacter calcoaceticus} (ATCC23055), \textit{Escherichia coli} (ATCC2592), \textit{Pseudomonas aeruginosa} (ATCC27853), and \textit{Staphylococcus aureus} (ATCC25923). As a result, potential antimicrobial effects were seen for some of the synthesized compounds.

The corrosion inhibition of mild steel alloys is of tremendous technological importance due to their increased industrial applications. Potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy techniques were used to establish the effect of different concentrations of HCl on the corrosion behavior of mild steel. A study was conducted on the inhibition of dissolution for a mild steel alloy in the most corrosive concentration of HCl (5 M) by adding different concentrations of aqueous extract of \textit{Hibiscus sabdariffa} plant (named karkade or rosselle) as an ecofriendly inhibitor. The extent of corrosion inhibition as measured by the two techniques was comparable. The results …
