Od-Characterization Of Some Alternating Groups, Shitian Liu Jan 2015

Od-Characterization Of Some Alternating Groups, Shitian Liu

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

Let $G$ be a finite group. Moghaddamfar et al. defined prime graph $\Gamma(G)$ of group $G$ as follows. The vertices of $\Gamma(G)$ are the primes dividing the order of $G$ and two distinct vertices $p,q$ are joined by an edge, denoted by $p\sim q$, if there is an element in $G$ of order $pq$. Assume $ G =p_{1}^{\alpha_{1}}\cdots p_{k}^{\alpha_{k}}$ with $P_{1}$ <$\cdots$&\lt;$p_{k}$ and nature numbers $\alpha_{i}$ with $i=1,2,\cdots,k$. For $p\in\pi(G)$, let the degree of $p$ be $\deg(p)= \{q\in\pi(G)\mid q\sim p\} $, and $D(G)=(\deg(p_{1}), \deg(p_{2}), \cdots, \deg(p_{k}))$. Denote by $\pi(G)$ the set of prime divisor of $ G $. Let $GK(G)$ be the graph with vertex set $\pi(G)$ such that two primes $p$ and $q$ in $\pi(G)$ are joined by an edge if $G$ has an element of order $p\cdot q$. We set $s(G)$ to denote the number of connected components of the prime graph $GK(G)$. Some authors proved some groups are $OD$-characterizable with $s(G)\geq2$. Then for $s(G)=1$, what is the influence of $OD$ on the structure of groups? We knew that the alternating groups $A_{p+3}$, where $7\neq p\in\pi(100!)$, $A_{130}$ and $A_{140}$ are $OD$-characterizable. Therefore, we naturally ask the following question: if $s(G)=1$, then is there a group $OD$-characterizable? In this note, we give a characterization of $A_{p+3}$ except $A_{10}$ with $s(A_{p+3})=1$, by $OD$, which gives a positive answer to Moghaddamfar and Rahbariyan's conjecture.

Notes On Magnetic Curves In 3d Semi-Riemannian Manifolds, Zehra Özdemi̇r, İsmai̇l Gök, Yusuf Yayli, Fai̇k Nejat Ekmekci̇ Jan 2015

Notes On Magnetic Curves In 3d Semi-Riemannian Manifolds, Zehra Özdemi̇r, İsmai̇l Gök, Yusuf Yayli, Fai̇k Nejat Ekmekci̇

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

A magnetic field is defined by the property that its divergence is zero in three-dimensional semi-Riemannian manifolds. Each magnetic field generates a magnetic flow whose trajectories are curves $\gamma $, called magnetic curves. In this paper, we investigate the effect of magnetic fields on the moving particle trajectories by variational approach to the magnetic flow associated with the Killing magnetic field on three-dimensional semi-Riemannian manifolds. We then investigate the trajectories of these magnetic fields and give some characterizations and examples of these curves.

Stability In A Job Market With Linearly Increasing Valuations And Quota System, Yasir Ali Jan 2015

Stability In A Job Market With Linearly Increasing Valuations And Quota System, Yasir Ali

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

We consider a job market in which preferences of players are represented by linearly increasing valuations. The set of players is divided into two disjoint subsets: a set of workers and a set of firms. The set of workers is further divided into subsets, which represent different categories or classes in everyday life. We consider that firms have vacant posts for all such categories. Each worker wants a job for a category to which he/she belongs. Firms have freedom to hire more than one worker from any category. A worker can work in only one category for at most one …

Invariant Distributions And Holomorphic Vector Fields In Paracontact Geometry, Mircea Crasmareanu, Laurian Ioan Piscoran Jan 2015

Invariant Distributions And Holomorphic Vector Fields In Paracontact Geometry, Mircea Crasmareanu, Laurian Ioan Piscoran

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

Having as a model the metric contact case of V. Brînzănescu; R. Slobodeanu, we study two similar subjects in the paracontact (metric) geometry: a) distributions that are invariant with respect to the structure endomorphism $\varphi $; b) the class of vector fields of holomorphic type. As examples we consider both the $3$-dimensional case and the general dimensional case through a Heisenberg-type structure inspired also by contact geometry.

A Note On M-Embedded Subgroups Of Finite Groups, Juping Tang, Long Miao Jan 2015

A Note On M-Embedded Subgroups Of Finite Groups, Juping Tang, Long Miao

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

Let $A$ be a subgroup of $G$. $A$ is m-embedded in $G$ if $G$ has a subnormal subgroup $T$ and a $\{1\leq G\}$-embedded subgroup $C$ such that $G=AT$ and $T\cap A\leq C\leq A$. In this paper, we study the structure of finite groups by using m-embedded subgroups and obtain some new results about $p$-supersolvability and $p$-nilpotency of finite groups. \vs{-1mm}

Approximate Duals And Nearly Parseval Frames, Morteza Mirzaee Azandaryani Jan 2015

Approximate Duals And Nearly Parseval Frames, Morteza Mirzaee Azandaryani

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In this paper we introduce approximate duality of g-frames in Hilbert $C^\ast$-modules and we show that approximate duals of g-frames in Hilbert $C^\ast$-modules share many useful properties with those in Hilbert spaces. Moreover, we obtain some new results for approximate duality of frames and g-frames in Hilbert spaces; in particular, we consider approximate duals of $\varepsilon$-nearly Parseval and $\varepsilon$-close frames.

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.

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 Jan 2015

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.

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.

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.

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.

Traditional Livestock Production And Growth Opportunities In India, S. M. Deb Jan 2015

Traditional Livestock Production And Growth Opportunities In India, S. M. Deb

IGC Proceedings (1993-2023)

Livestock and animal health development projects need to be based on an understanding of livestock production systems because different systems need different approaches particularly in view of degradation of environment combined with population pressure. In India, the livestock production system is primarily traditional, consisting of mixed-farming and pastoral systems, therefore, development of marginal and smallholder mixed farms must aim at intensification of the total production system. Resource-poor farming systems may aim at the improved management of the various livestock species in backyards. Pastoral systems must focus on effective management of grazing pressure. Community pasture management involves application of technologies, land …

Large-Scale Geometric Data Decomposition, Processing And Structured Mesh Generation, Wuyi Yu Jan 2015

Large-Scale Geometric Data Decomposition, Processing And Structured Mesh Generation, Wuyi Yu

LSU Doctoral Dissertations

Mesh generation is a fundamental and critical problem in geometric data modeling and processing. In most scientific and engineering tasks that involve numerical computations and simulations on 2D/3D regions or on curved geometric objects, discretizing or approximating the geometric data using a polygonal or polyhedral meshes is always the first step of the procedure. The quality of this tessellation often dictates the subsequent computation accuracy, efficiency, and numerical stability. When compared with unstructured meshes, the structured meshes are favored in many scientific/engineering tasks due to their good properties. However, generating high-quality structured mesh remains challenging, especially for complex or large-scale …

Knots, Skein Theory And Q-Series, Mustafa Hajij

LSU Doctoral Dissertations

The tail of a sequence {P_n(q)} of formal power series in Z[q^{-1}][[q]], if it exists, is the formal power series whose first $n$ coefficients agree up to a common sign with the first n coefficients of P_n. The colored Jones polynomial is link invariant that associates to every link in S^3 a sequence of Laurent polynomials. In the first part of this work we study the tail of the unreduced colored Jones polynomial of alternating links using the colored Kauffman skein relation. This gives a natural extension of a result by Kauffman, Murasugi, and Thistlethwaite regarding the highest and lowest …
