Design of Positive, Negative, and Alternating Sign Generalized Logistic Maps

On some generalized discrete logistic maps

Recently, conventional logistic maps have been used in different vital applications like modeling and security. However, unfortunately the conventional logistic maps can tolerate only one changeable parameter. In this paper, three different generalized logistic maps are introduced with arbitrary powers which can be reduced to the conventional logistic map. The added parameter (arbitrary power) ...

Keys and Alternating Sign Matrices

In [12], Lascoux and Schützenberger introduced a notion of key associated to any Young tableau. More recently Lascoux defined the key of an alternating sign matrix by recursively removing all −1’s in such matrices. But alternating sign matrices are in bijection with monotone triangles, which form a subclass of Young tableaux. We show that in this case these two notions of keys coincide. Moreove...

Affine Alternating Sign Matrices

An Alternating sign matrix is a square matrix of 0’s, 1’s, and −1’s in which the sum of the entries in each row or column is 1 and the signs of the nonzero entries in each row or column alternate. This paper attempts to define an analogue to alternating sign matrices which is infinite and periodic. After showing the analogue we define shares desirable cahracteristics with alternating sign matri...

Alternating Sign Matrices and Polynomiography

To each permutation matrix we associate a complex permutation polynomial with roots at lattice points corresponding to the position of the ones. More generally, to an alternating sign matrix (ASM) we associate a complex alternating sign polynomial. On the one hand visualization of these polynomials through polynomiography, in a combinatorial fashion, provides for a rich source of algorithmic ar...
