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:
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 this article dynamical behavior of coupled Duffing oscillators is analyzed under a small modification. The oscillators have cubic damping instead of linear one. Although single duffing oscillator has complex dynamics, coupled duffing systems possess a much more complex structure. The dynamical behavior of the system is investigated both numerically and analytically. Numerical results indicate that the system has double scroll attractor with suitable parameter values. On the other hand, bifurcation diagrams illustrate rich behavior of the system, and it is seen that, system enters into chaos with different routes. Beside classical bifurcations, bubbling route to chaos is observed for suitable parameter settings. On the other hand, Multistability of the system is indicated with the coexisting attractors, such that under same parameter setting the system shows different periodic and chaotic attractors. Moreover, chaotic synchronization of coupled oscillators is illustrated in final section.

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.

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:
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.

E-mail: abdellah.menasri70@gmail.com
Abstract:
In this paper, we study the Lozi map by replacing the piecewise linear term in the first equation by the function max (f(x,y);g(x,y)) such that f and g are two arbitrary functions in R2. This is a family model that allows us to study several new piecewise-smooth maps. We demonstrate that these models converge to a robust chaotic attractor and give some applications of these models in the real world.

Abstract:
In 1983 Skof [24] was the first author to solve the Ulam problem for additive mappings on a restricted domain. In 1998 Jung [14] investigated the Hyers-Ulam stability of additive and quadratic mappings on restricted domains. In this paper we improve the bounds and thus the results obtained by Jung [14], in 1998 and by the author [21], in 2002. Besides we establish new theorems about the Ulam stability of mixed type functional equations on restricted domains. Finally, we apply our recent results to the asymptotic behavior of functional equations of different types.

Abstract:
Many control and signal processing applications require testing
stability of polynomials. Classical tests for locating zeros of
polynomials are recursive, but they must be stopped whenever the so
called "singular polynomials" appear. These ``singular cases'' are
often avoided by perturbing the "singular polynomial".
Perturbation techniques although always successful are not proven to
be well-founded. Our aim is to give a mathematical foundation to a
perturbation method in order to overcome "singular cases" when
using Levinson recursion as a testing method. The non-singular
polynomials are proven to be dense in the set of all polynomials
respect the L²-norm on the unit circle . The proof is
constructive and can be used algorithmically.

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.

Equilibria and Periodic Solutions of Projected Dynamical Systems on Sets with Corners

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:
By working out an appropriate technique of relations and relators and extending the ideas of the direct methods of Z. Gajda and R. Ger, we prove some generalizations of the stability theorems of D. H. Hyers, T. Aoki, Th. M. Rassias and P. Găvruţă in terms of the existence and unicity of 2-homogeneous and additive approximate selections of generalized subadditive relations of semigroups to vector relator spaces. Thus, we obtain generalizations not only of the selection theorems of Z. Gajda and R. Ger, but also those of the present author.

Abstract:
This paper generalizes polyhedra to infinite dimensional Hilbert spaces as countable intersections of closed semispaces. Highlights are the structure theory that shows that a polyhedron is the sum of compact set (in a suitable topology) plus a closed pointed cone plus a closed subspace, giving the internal representation of polyhedra. In the final part the dual range space technique is extended to the solution of infinite dimensional LP problems.

Abstract:
We prove that there exists a unique ellipse of minimal eccentricity, EI, inscribed in a parallelogram, Ð. We also prove that the smallest nonnegative angle between equal conjugate diameters of $EI equals the smallest nonnegative angle between the diagonals of Ð. We also prove that if EM is the unique ellipse inscribed in a rectangle, R, which is tangent at the midpoints of the sides of R, then EM is the unique ellipse of minimal eccentricity, maximal area, and maximal arc length inscribed in R. Let Ð be any convex quadrilateral. In previous papers, the author proved that there is a unique ellipse of minimal eccentricity, EI, inscribed in Ð, and a unique ellipse, EO, of minimal eccentricity circumscribed about Ð. We defined Ð to be bielliptic if EI and EO have the same eccentricity. In this paper we show that a parallelogram, Ð, is bielliptic if and only if the square of the length of one of the diagonals of Ð equals twice the square of the length of one of the sides of Ð .

Expected Utility with Subjective Events

Abstract:
We provide a new theory of expected utility with subjective events modeled by a lattice of projections. This approach allows us to capture the notion of a ``small world'' as a context dependent or local state space embedded into a subjective set of events, the ``grand world''. For each situation the decision makers' subjective ``small world'' reflects the events perceived to be relevant for the act under consideration. The subjective set of events need not be representable by a classical state space. Maintaining preference axioms similar in spirit to the classical axioms, we obtain an expected utility representation which is consistent across local state spaces and separates subjective probability and utility. An added benefit is that this alternative expected utility representation allows for an intuitive distinction between risk and uncertainty.

Abstract:
By a partial dynamical system, we mean a triple containing a C*-algebra A, a discrete group G and a partial action of G on A. There are two C*--algebras associated to a given partial dynamical system. These are nothing but the certain C*-completions of a Banach *-algebra. In constructing such a Banach *-algebra, usually, a tedious limit process is used to apply. In this paper, we prove some theorems in this context without any limit process.

Fuzzy entropy is the entropy of a fuzzy variable, loosely representing the information of uncertainty. This paper, first examines both previous membership and credibility based entropy measures in fuzzy environment, and then suggests an extended credibility based measure which satisfies mostly in Du Luca and Termini axioms. Furthermore, using credibility and the proposed measure, the relative entropy is defined to measure uncertainty between fuzzy numbers. Finally we provide some properties of this Credibility based fuzzy entropy measure and to clarify, give some examples.

Abstract:
In this paper we survey some recent results obtained by the author in providing various bounds for the celebrated f-divergence measure for various classes of functions f. Several techniques including inequalities of Jensen and Slater types for convex functions are employed. Bounds in terms of Kullback-Leibler Distance, Hellinger Discrimination and Varation distance are provided. Approximations of the f-divergence measure by the use of the celebrated Ostrowski and Trapezoid inequalities are obtained. More accurate approximation formulae that make use of Taylor's expansion with integral remainder are also surveyed. A comprehensive list of recent papers by several authors related this important concept in information theory is also included as an appendix to the main text.

Abstract:
In this paper at first a brief history of mathematical models is presented with the aim to clarify the reliability of stochastic models over deterministic models. Next, the necessary background about random variables and stochastic processes, especially Markov chains and the entropy are introduced. After that, entropy of SIR stochastic models is computed and it is proven that an epidemic will disappear after a long time. Entropy of a stochastic mathematical model determines the average uncertainty about the outcome of that random experiment. At the end, we introduce a chain binomial epidemic model and compute its entropy, which is then compared with the DTMC SIR epidemic model to show which one is nearer to reality.

This study discusses the Lie Symmetry Analysis of Black-Scholes equation via a modified local one-parameter transformations. It can be argued that the transformation of the Black-Scholes equation is firstly obtained by means of riskless rate. Thereafter, the corresponding determining equations to the reduced equation are found. Furthermore, new symmetries of the Black-Scholes equation are constructed and lead to invariant solutions.

Abstract:
Approximately dual frame in Hilbert spaces was introduced by Christensen and Laugesen to overcome difficulties in constructing dual frames for a given Hilbert space frame. It becomes even more difficult in Banach spaces to construct duals. For this purpose, we introduce approximately dual frames for a class of approximate Schauder frames for Banach spaces and develop basic theory. Approximate dual for this subclass is completely characterized and its perturbation is also studied.

Abstract:
In this paper, we aim to investigate the equiform differential geometric properties of the involute-evolute curve couple with constant equiform curvatures in three-dimensional hyperbolic and de Sitter spaces. Also, we obtain some relations between the curvature functions of these curves and investigate some special curves with respect to their equiform curvatures. Finally, we defray two computational examples to support our main findings.
