Abstract:
Many multi--parameter families of congruences (mod p) are found for integer
sums of
qth powers of the trigonometric functions over various sets of equidistant
arguments, where
p is any prime factor of q. Those congruences provide sensitive
tests for the accuracy
of software for evaluating trigonometric functions to high precision.

Positive Solutions of Evolution Operator Equations
Author(s):
Radu Precup
Department of Applied Mathematics,
Babes-Bolyai University,
Cluj, Romania
Abstract:
Existence and localization results are derived from Krasnoselskii’s compressionexpansion
fixed point theorem in cones, for operator equations in spaces of continuous functions
from a compact real interval to an abstract space. The main idea, first used in [12], is to handle
two equivalent operator forms of the equation, one of fixed point type giving the operator to
which Krasnoselskii’s theorem applies and an other one of coincidence type which is used to
localize a positive solution in a shell. An application is presented for a boundary value problem
associated to a fourth order partial differential equation on a rectangular domain.

Abstract:
Shape diagrams are representations in the Euclidean plane introduced to study 3-dimensional and 2-dimensional compact convex sets. However, they can also been applied to more general compact sets than compact convex sets. A compact set is represented by a point within a shape diagram whose coordinates are morphometrical functionals defined as normalized ratios of geometrical functionals. Classically, the geometrical functionals are the area, the perimeter, the radii of the inscribed and circumscribed circles, and the minimum and maximum Feret diameters. They allow twenty-two shape diagrams to be built. Starting from these six classical geometrical functionals, a detailed comparative study has been performed in order to analyze the representation relevance and discrimination power of these twenty-two shape diagrams. The first part of this study is published in a previous paper 16. It focused on analytic compact convex sets. A set will be called analytic if its boundary is piecewise defined by explicit functions in such a way that the six geometrical functionals can be straightforwardly calculated. The purpose of this paper is to present the second part, by focusing on analytic simply connected compact sets. The third part of the comparative study is published in a following paper 17. It is focused on convexity discrimination for analytic and discretized simply connected compact sets.

Abstract:
In addition to solid ground of Riemannian manifolds fundamentals, this article interviews some popular optimization methods on Riemannian manifolds. Several optimization problems can be better stated on manifolds rather than Euclidean space, such as interior point methods, which in turns based on self-concordant functions (logarithmic barrier functions). Optimization schemes like the steepest descent scheme, the Newton scheme, and others can be extended to Riemannian manifolds. This paper introduces some Riemannian and non-Riemannian schemes on manifolds.

Abstract:
In 1914, F.W. Lanchester proposed several mathematical models based on differential equations to describe combat situations [34]. Since then, his work has been extensively modified to represent a variety of competitions including entire wars. Differential Lanchester type models have been studied from many angles by many authors in hundreds of papers and reports. Lanchester type models are used in the planning of optimal strategies, supply and tactics. In this paper, we will show how these models can be studied from a viability theory stand point. We will introduce the notion of winning cone and show that it is a viable cone for these models. In the last part of our paper we will use the viability theory of differential equations to study Lanchester type models from the optimal theory point of view.

Abstract:
In this paper, we study vector optimization problems in partially ordered Banach spaces. We suppose that the objective mapping possesses a weakened property of lower semicontinuity and make no assumptions on the interior of the ordering cone. We derive sufficient conditions for existence of efficient solutions of the above problems and discuss the role of topological properties of the objective space. We discuss the scalarization of vector optimization problems when the objective functions are vector-valued mappings with a weakened property of lower semicontinuity. We also prove the existence of the so-called generalized efficient solutions via the scalarization process. All principal notions and assertions are illustrated by numerous examples.

On an Autocorrection Phenomenon of the Eckhoff Interpolation

Abstract:
The paper considers the Krylov-Lanczos and the Eckhoff interpolations of a function with a discontinuity at a known point. These interpolations are based on certain corrections associated with jumps in the first derivatives. In the Eckhoff interpolation, approximation of the exact jumps is accomplished by the solution of a system of linear equations. We show that in the regions where the 2-periodic extension of the interpolated function is smooth, the Eckhoff interpolation converges faster compared with the Krylov-Lanczos interpolation. This accelerated convergence is known as the autocorrection phenomenon. The paper presents a theoretical explanation of this phenomenon. Numerical experiments confirm theoretical estimates.

Abstract:
In this paper, based on the theorem of the uniqueness of the solution of the stochastic differential equation, the convergence possibility of the Caratheodory's approximate solution was studied by approximating the unique solution.

Abstract:
This paper investigates discrete boundary value problems (BVPs) involving second-order difference equations and two-point boundary conditions.
General theorems guaranteeing the existence and uniqueness of solutions to the discrete BVP are established. The methods involve a sufficient growth condition to yield an a priori bound on solutions to a certain family of discrete BVPs. The em a priori bounds on solutions to the discrete BVP do not depend on the step-size and thus there are no ``spurious'' solutions. It is shown that solutions of the discrete BVP will converge to solutions of ordinary differential equations.

Abstract:
Some new oscillation criteria for second-order linear delay dynamic equation
on a time scale T are established. Our results improve the
recent results for delay dynamic equations and in the special case when
T=R, the results include the oscillation results established by Hille [1948,
Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 64 (1948), 234-252] and Erbe [Canad. Math. Bull. 16
(1973), 49-56.] for differential equations. When T=Z the
results include and improve some oscillation criteria for difference
equations. When T=hZ, h>0, T=qN and T=N2, i.e., for generalized second order delay difference equations our
results are essentially new and can be applied on different types of time
scales. An example is considered to illustrate the main results.

Abstract:
Shape diagrams are representations in the Euclidean plane introduced to study 3-dimensional and 2-dimensional compact convex sets. Such a set is represented by a point within a shape diagram whose coordinates are morphometrical functionals defined as normalized ratios of geometrical functionals. Classically, the geometrical functionals are the area, the perimeter, the radii of the inscribed and circumscribed circles, and the minimum and maximum Feret diameters. They allow thirty-one shape diagrams to be built. Most of these shape diagrams can also been applied to more general compact sets than compact convex sets. Starting from these six classical geometrical functionals, a detailed comparative study has been performed in order to analyze the representation relevance and discrimination power of these thirty-one shape diagrams. The purpose of this paper is to present the first part of this study, by focusing on analytic compact convex sets. A set will be called analytic if its boundary is piecewise defined by explicit functions in such a way that the six geometrical functionals can be straightforwardly calculated. The second and third part of the comparative study are published in two following papers [19.20]. They are focused on analytic simply connected sets and convexity discrimination for analytic and discretized simply connected sets, respectively.

Abstract:
This paper gives upper and lower bounds on the gap in Jensen's inequality, i.e., the difference between the expected value of a function of a random variable and the value of the function at the expected value of the random variable. The bounds depend only on growth properties of the function and specific moments of the random variable. The bounds are particularly useful for distributions that are concentrated around the mean, a commonly occurring scenario such as the average of i.i.d. samples and in statistical mechanics.

Abstract:
The study of optimization methods on manifolds has emerged as an immensely significant topic in mathematics due its ubiquitous applicability as well as various computational advantages associated with it. Motivated by this fact, the present article is devoted to the study of a class of constrained multiobjective programming problems (MOPP) in the framework of Hadamard manifolds. We present the generalized Guignard constraint qualification (GGCQ) in the framework of Hadamard manifolds for (MOPP). Employing (GGCQ), we derive Karush-Kuhn-Tucker type necessary optimality criteria for (MOPP). Moreover, we present several other constraint qualifications (CQs) on Hadamard manifolds, namely, Abadie's CQ, generalized Abadie's CQ, Cottle-type CQ, Slater-type CQ, linear CQ, linear objective CQ and Mangasarian-Fromovitz CQ. Further, we establish various relations between these constraint qualifications. In particular, we show that these constraint qualifications, in turn, become sufficient conditions ensuring that (GGCQ) is satisfied.

An Algorithm to Compute Gaussian-Type Quadrature Formulae

Abstract:
It is well-known that for sufficiently smooth integrands on an interval, numerical integration can be performed stably and efficiently via the classical (polynomial) Gauss quadrature formulae. However, for many other sets of integrands these quadrature formulae do not perform well. A very natural way of avoiding this problem is to include a wide class among arbitrary functions (not necessary polynomials) to be integrated exactly. The spline functions are natural candidates for such problems. In this paper, after studying Gaussian type quadrature formulae which are exact for spline functions and which contain boundary terms involving derivatives at both end points, we present a fast algorithm for computing their nodes and weights. It is also shown, taking advantage of the close connection with ordinary Gauss quadrature formula, that the latter are computed, via eigenvalues and eigenvectors of real symmetric tridiagonal matrices. Hence a new class of quadrature formulae can then be computed directly by standard software for ordinary Gauss quadrature formula. Comparative results with classical Gauss quadrature formulae are given to illustrate the numerical performance of the approach.

Analysis of the Flow Field in Stenosed Bifurcated Arteries Through a Mathematical Model

Abstract:
The present study is dealt with an appropriate mathematical model
of the arotic bifurcation in the presence of constrictions using which
the physiological flow field is analized. The geometry of the bifurcated
arterial segment having constrictions in both the parent and its daughter
arterial lumen frequently occurring in the diseased arteries causing
malfunction of the cardiovascular system , is formed mathematically
with the introduction of appropriate curvatures at the lateral junctions
and the flow divider. The flowing blood contained in the stenosed
bifurcated artery is treated to be Newtonian and the flow is considered
to be two dimensional. The motion of the arterial wall and its effect
on local fluid mechanics is not ruled out from the present pursuit.
The flow analysis applies the time-dependent, two-dimensional incompressible
nonlinear Navier-Stokes equations for Newtonian fluid. The flow field
can be obtained primarily following the radial coordinate transformation
and using the appropriate boundary conditions and finally adopting
a suitable finite difference scheme numerically. The influences of
the arterial wall distensibility and the presence of stenosis on the
flow field, the flow rate and the wall shear stresses are quantified
in order to indicate the susceptibility to atherosclerotic lesions
and thereby to validate the applicability of the present theoretical
model.

In this paper, we study vector optimization problems in Banach spaces for essentially nonlinear operator equations with additional control and state constraints. We assume that an objective mapping possesses a weakened property of lower semicontinuity and make no assumptions on the interior of the ordering cone. Using the penalization approach we derive both sufficient and necessary conditions for the existence of efficient solutions of the above problems. We also prove the existence of the so-called generalized efficient solutions via the scalarization of some penalized vector optimization problem.

The common fixed point results for Banach operator pair with generalized nonexpansive mappings in q-normed space have been obtained in the present work. As application, some more general best approximation results have also been determined without the assumption of linearity or affinity of mappings. These results unify and generalize various existing known results with the aid of more general class of noncommuting mappings.

A One-Line Derivation of the Euler and Ostrogradski Equations
Author(s):

Stanford, CA 94305,
U. S. A
Abstract:
At the very heart of major results of classical physics, the Euler and Ostrogradski equations have apparently no intuitive interpretation. In this paper we show that this is not so. Relying on Euler's initial geometric approach, we show that they can be obtained through a direct reasoning that does not imply any calculation. The intuitive approach we suggest offers two benefits: it gives immediate significance to these fundamental second-order non-linear differential equations; and second, it allows to obtain a property of the calculus of variations that does not seem to have been uncovered until now: the Euler and Ostrogradski equations can be derived not necessarily by giving a variation to the optimal function -- as is always done; one could equally well start by giving a variation to their derivative(s).

Miller independently), namely that if a polynomial with all roots inside the closed unit disk has a root sufficiently close to the unit circle then there is a critical point at a distance of at most one from that root. Chijiwa provides an estimate of exponential order for the required 'closeness' of the root to the unit circle so that such a critical point may exist. In this paper, we will improve this estimate to polynomial order by making major modifications and strengthening inequalities in Chijiwa's proof.

Abstract:
The purpose of this work is to generalize the fixed point results of Kumar et al. [11] by introducing the concept of (α,β)-Z-contraction mapping, Suzuki generalized (α,β)-Z-contraction mapping, (α,β)-admissible mapping and triangular (α,β)-admissible mapping in the frame work of G-metric spaces. Fixed point theorems for these class of mappings are established in the frame work of a complete G-metric spaces and we establish a generalization of the fixed point result of Kumar et al. [11] and a host of others in the literature. Finally, we apply our fixed point result to solve an integral equation.

Abstract:
A mathematical model of HIV/AIDS is governed by a system of ordinary differential equations in the presence of an antiretroviral treatment (ARV). The theory of optimal control is applied to an epidemic model of HIV/AIDS which an ARV is used as a control strategy in order to prevent the spread of HIV/AIDS. The optimality system is derived by applying the Pontryagin's Minimum Principle. We analyze the boundedness and positivity of solutions, and an existence of the optimal control. Numerical simulations are conducted to obtain numerical solution of the optimally system.

Abstract:
In this paper we consider the orthogonal collocation on finite elements (OCFE) method using quintic Hermite (second degree smooth) basis functions and use it to solve partial differential equations (PDEs). The method is particularly tailored to solve third order BVPS and PDEs and to handle their special solutions such as travelling waves and solitons, which typically is the case in the KdV equation. The use of quintic polynomials and collocation using Gauss points yields a stable high order superconvergent method. OCFE using quintic Hermite basis is optimal since it is computationally more efficient than collocation methods using (first degree smooth) piecewise-polynomials and more accurate than the (third degree smooth) B-splines basis. Various computational simulations are presented to demonstrate the computational efficiency and versatility of the OCFE method.

Abstract:
The purpose of this paper is to study the (EA)-property and noncompatible maps
of a hybrid pair of single-valued and multivalued maps in fixed point considerations. Such maps
have the remarkable property that they need not be continuous at their common fixed points. We
use this property to obtain some coincidence and fixed point theorems for strictly contractive
hybrid maps without using their continuity and completeness or compactness of the space.

Abstract:
The well known Jordan decomposition theorem gives the useful characterization that any function of bounded variation can be written as the difference of two increasing functions. Functions which can be expressed in this way can be used to formulate an exclusion test for the recent Cellular Exclusion Algorithms for numerically computing all zero points or the global minima of functions in a given cellular domain [2,8,9]. In this paper we give an algorithm to approximate such increasing functions when only the values of the function of bounded variation can be computed. For this purpose, we are led to introduce the idea of ε-increasing functions. It is shown that for any Lipschitz continuous function, we can find two ε-increasing functions such that the Lipschitz function can be written as the difference of these functions.

Abstract:
Projected dynamical systems theory represents a bridge between the
static worlds of variational inequalities and equilibrium
problems, and the dynamic world of ordinary differential
equations. A projected dynamical system (PDS) is given by the flow
of a projected differential equation, an ordinary differential
equation whose trajectories are restricted to a constraint set
K. Projected differential equations are defined by discontinuous
vector fields and so standard differential equations theory cannot
apply. The formal study of PDS began in the 90's, although some
results existed in the literature since the 70's. In this paper we
present a novel result regarding existence of equilibria and
periodic cycles of a finite dimensional PDS on constraint sets
K, whose points satisfy a corner condition. The novelty is due
to proving existence of boundary equilibria without using a
variational inequality approach or monotonicity type conditions.

Abstract:
The purpose of this paper is twofold. First, we want to initiate a study
of regular variation on time scales by introducing this concept in such a
way that it
unifies and extends well studied continuous and discrete cases.
Some basic properties of regularly varying functions on time scales will be
established as well.
Second, we give conditions under which certain solutions of linear second
order
dynamic equations are regularly varying.
Open problems and possible directions for a future research are discussed,
too.

Abstract:
The aim of this work is study a dynamic contact problem between a
deformable body and a foundation where the deformations are supposed
to be small. The contact is with adhesion and normal compliance. The
behavior of this body is modeled by a nonlinear
elastic-visco-plastic law. The evolution of bonding field is
described by a nonlinear differential equation. We derive a
variational formulation of the contact problem and we prove the
existence and uniqueness of its solution. The proof is based on the
construction of three intermediate problems and then we construct a
contraction mapping whose unique fixed point will be the weak
solution of the mechanical problem.

Abstract:
A powerful and novel way to study Einstein's special theory of relativity and its underlying geometry, the hyperbolic geometry of Bolyai and Lobachevsky, by analogies with classical mechanics and its underlying Euclidean geometry is demonstrated. The demonstration sets the stage for the extension of the notion of barycentric coordinates in Euclidean geometry, first conceived by Möbius in 1827, into hyperbolic geometry. As an example for the application of hyperbolic barycentric coordinates, the hyperbolic midpoint of any hyperbolic segment, and the centroid and orthocenter of any hyperbolic triangle are determined.

Ioannis K. Argyros

iargyros@cameron.edu
Abstract:
We improve the mesh independence principle [1] which states that when Newton's method is applied to an equation on a Banach space as well as to their finite--dimensional discretization there is a difference of at most one between the number of steps required by the two processes to converge to within a given error tolerance. Here using a combination of Lipschitz and center Lipschitz continuity assumptions instead of just Lipschitz conditions we show that the minimum number of steps required can be at least as small as in earlier works. Some numerical examples are provided whereas our results compare favorably with earlier ones.

Abstract:
In this article, we consider a system of singularly perturbed weakly coupled convection-diffusion equations having diffusion parameters of different magnitudes. These small parameters give rise to boundary layers. An upwind finite difference scheme on adaptively generated mesh is used to obtain a suitable monitor function that gives first-order convergence which is robust with respect to the diffusion parameters. We present the results of numerical experiments for linear and semilinear system of differential equations to support the effectiveness of our preferred monitor function obtained from theoretical analysis.

Abstract:
In this paper, we introduce some new implicit Kirk-type iterative schemes in generalized convex metric spaces in order to approximate fixed points for general class of quasi-contractive type operators. The strong convergence, T-stability, equivalency, data dependence and convergence rate of these results were explored. The iterative schemes are faster and better, in term of speed of convergence, than their corresponding results in the literature. These results also improve and generalize several existing iterative schemes in the literature and they provide analogues of the corresponding results of other spaces, namely: normed spaces, CAT(0) spaces and so on.

The aim of this paper is to introduce a new iteration process (5) for ρ-contraction mappings in Modular spaces. We obtain some analytical proof for convergence and stability of our iteration process (5). We show that our iteration process (5) gives faster convergence results than the leading AK iteration process (4) for contraction mappings. Moreover, a numerical example (using the Matlab Software) is presented to compare the rate of convergence for existing iteration processes with our new iteration process (5).

Abstract:
Stability of solutions of the problems is an important aspect for application purposes. Since its introduction by Datko [7], the concept of exponential stability has been developed in various types of stability by various approaches. The existing conditions use evolution operator, evolution semigroup, and quasi semigroup approach for the non-autonomous problems and a semigroup approach for the autonomous cases. However, the polynomial stability based on C0-quasi semigroups has not been discussed in the references. In this paper we propose a new stability for C0-quasi semigroups on Banach spaces i.e the polynomial stability and polynomial dichotomy. As the results, the sufficient and necessary conditions for the polynomial and uniform polynomial stability are established as well as the sufficiency for the polynomial dichotomy. The results are also confirmed by the examples.

Abstract:
In this paper we consider a Gould type integral of real functions with respect to a compact and convex valued not necessarily additive measure. In particular we will introduce the concept of integrable multimeasure and, thanks to this notion, we will establish an exact Radon-Nikodym theorem relative to a fuzzy multisubmeasure which is new also in the finite dimensional case. Some results concerning the Gould integral are also obtained.

Abstract:
The adjacent configurations of two-dimensional magnetic null point centers are analyzed by an immediate examination about the null. The configurations are classified as either potential or non-potential. By then the non-potential cases are subdivided into three cases depending upon whether the component of current is less than, equal to or greater than a threshold current. In addition the essential structure of reconnection in 2D is examined. It unfolds that the manner by which the magnetic flux is rebuilt. In this paper, we center on the ramifications of kinematic arrangements; that is, we fathom just Maxwell's conditions and a resistive Ohm's law.

Abstract:
In the present work, we prove that the class of s-positively homogeneous operators is a Banach space. As application, we give the generalization of some Maurey factorization theorems to T which is a s-positively homogeneous operator from X a Banach space into Lp. Where we establish necessary and sufficient conditions to proof that T factors through Lq. After this we give extend result of dual factorization theorem to same class of operators above.

Abstract:
In this paper, we consider a mathematical model that describes the quasi-static process of contact between two thermo-electro-viscoelastic bodies with damage and adhesion. The damage of the materials caused by elastic deformations. The contact is frictional and modeled with a normal compliance condition involving adhesion effect of contact surfaces. Evolution of the bonding field is described by a first order differential equation. We derive variational formulation for the model and prove an existence and uniqueness result of the weak solution. The proof is based on arguments of evolutionary variational inequalities, parabolic inequalities, differential equations, and fixed point theorem.

Abstract:
The main aim of this article is to present recent results concerning diagonal implicit multistage integration methods (DIMSIMs) with extrapolation in solving stiff problems. Implicit methods with extrapolation have been proven to be very useful in solving problems with stiff components. There are many articles written on extrapolation of Runge-Kutta methods however fewer articles on extrapolation were written for general linear methods. Passive extrapolation is more stable than active extrapolation as proven in many literature when solving stiff problems by the Runge-Kutta methods. This article takes the first step by investigating the performance of passive extrapolation for DIMSIMs type-2 methods. In the variable stepsize and order codes, order-2 and order-3 DIMSIMs with extrapolation are investigated for Van der Pol and HIRES problems. Comparisons are made with ode23 solver and the numerical experiments showed that implicit DIMSIMs with extrapolation has greater accuracy than the method itself without extrapolation and ode23.

Abstract:
Differential equations are basic tools to describe a wide variety of phenomena in nature such as, electrostatics, physics, chemistry, economics, etc. In this paper, a technique is developed to solve nonlinear and linear systems of ordinary differential equations based on the standard Differential Transform Method (DTM) and Multi-stage Differential Transform Method (MsDTM). Comparative numerical results that we are obtained by MsDTM and Runge-Kutta method are proposed. The numerical results showed that the MsDTM gives more accurate approximation as compared to the Runge-Kutta numerical method for the solutions of nonlinear and linear systems of ordinary differential equations

Abstract:
This paper discussed prey-predator fishery models, in particular by analysing the effects of toxic substances on aquatic ecosystems. It is assumed in this model, that the prey population is plankton and the predator population is fish.\ Interaction between the two populations uses the Holling type II function. The existence of local and global critical points of the system are shown and their stability properties are analysed. Furthermore, Bionomic equilibrium and optimal control of harvesting are discussed. Finally, numerical simulations have been carried out to show in the interpretation of results.

Abstract:
In this paper, we introduce a new inertial extrapolation method with regularization for approximating solutions of split variational inequality problems in the frame work of real Hilbert spaces. We prove that the proposed method converges strongly to a minimum-norm solution of the problem without using the conventional two cases approach. In addition, we present some numerical experiments to show the efficiency and applicability of the proposed method. The results obtained in this paper extend, generalize and improve several results in this direction.

Abstract:
This paper provides a review on Minimally Supported Frequency (MSF) wavelets that includes the construction and characterization of MSF wavelets. The characterization of MSF wavelets induced from an MRA is discussed and the nature of the low-pass filter associated with it is explained. The concept of wavelet set and dimension function is introduced to study this class of wavelets. Along with MSF wavelets, s-elementary wavelets and unimodular wavelets are also considered due to the similarity in definitions. Examples and illustrations are provided for more clarity.

Abstract:
In this paper, for the first time, we introduce the deferred matrix means which contain the well-known generalized deferred Nörlund, deferred Nörlund, deferred Riesz, deferred Cesàro means introduced earlier by others, and a new class of sequences (predominantly a wider class than the class of Head Bounded Variation Sequences). In addition, using the deferred matrix means of Fourier series of a continuous function, we determine the degree of approximation of such function via its modulus of continuity and a positive mediate function.

Abstract:
In this work, we study the split bilevel variational inequality problem in two real Hilbert spaces. We propose a new modified inertial projection and contraction method for solving the aforementioned problem when one of the operators is pseudomonotone and Lipschitz continuous while the other operator is α-strongly monotone. The use of the weakly sequential continuity condition on the Pseudomonotone operator is removed in this work. A Strong convergence theorem of the proposed method is proved under some mild conditions. In addition, some numerical experiments are presented to show the efficiency and implementation of our method in comparison with other methods in the literature in the framework of infinite dimensional Hilbert spaces. The results obtained in this paper extend, generalize and improve several.

A Unifying View of Some Banach Algebras

E-mail: rkantrow@hamilton.edu
Abstract:
The purpose of this article is to shed light on a unifying framework for some normed algebras and, in particular, for some Banach algebras. The focus is on linear operators T between normed algebras X and Y and specified subalgebras A of Y. When the action of T on products in X satisfies a certain operative equation, the subspace T-1(A) is stable under the multiplication of X and is readily equipped with a family of canonical submultiplicative norms. It turns out that many familiar and important spaces are encompassed under this versatile perspective, and we offer a sampling of several such. In this sense, the article presents an alternative lens through which to view a host of normed algebras. Moreover, recognition that a normed linear space conforms to this general structure provides another avenue to confirming that it is at once stable under multiplication and also outfitted with an abundance of equivalent submultiplicative norms.
