چکیده

We study the problem of counting the total number of affine solutions of a system of n binomials in n variables over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. We show that we may decide in polynomial time if that number is finite. We give a combinatorial formula for computing the total number of affine solutions (with or without multiplicity) from which we deduce that this counting problem is #P -complete. We discuss special cases in which this formula may be computed in polynomial time; in particular, this is true for generic exponent vectors.

Modeling Multiple–Vehicle Property Damage Collisions in Urban Signalized Intersections

Development of disaggregate models for estimating different property damage collision type frequencies in urban intersections has rarely been studied, particularly in Iran. It seems very little research work being implemented for studying the effect factors on collision type frequency at intersections. The main objective of this paper is to develop suitable statistical models to predict types o...

Priority Order for Improvement of Intersections using Pedestrian Crash Prediction Model

One of the most important needs of pedestrians is safety at crossing points, especially at intersections. Intersections are important parts of the urban road network because any disruption in them reduces the capacity of the entire network. The main objective of this research is to propose an appropriate method for prioritizing urban intersections with considering the important factors affectin...

How Probable is it to Discard an Ace of Hearts?

for any n ≥ 0 and 0 ≤ k ≤ n. A combinatorial interpretation of the formula (1) is as follows. The left-hand side counts the number of ways to select k balls (numbered with the corresponding number) from a bin of n balls. This is equivalent to the sum of the following two cases: (a) if the ball n is selected, the number of ways to select the remaining k − 1 balls from n − 1, and (b) if the ball ...

On binomial equations defining rational normal scrolls

We show that a rational normal scroll can in general be set-theoretically defined by a proper subset of the 2-minors of the associated two-row matrix. This allows us to find a class of rational normal scrolls that are almost settheoretic complete intersections.

On Binomial Set-Theoretic Complete Intersections in Characteristic p

Using arithmetic conditions on affine semigroups we prove that for a simplicial toric variety of codimension 2 the property of being a set-theoretic complete intersection on binomials in characteristic p holds either for all primes p, or for no prime p, or for exactly one prime p.
