Absolute Identity and Absolute Generality

چکیده

In conversations between native speakers, words such as ‘same’ and ‘identical’ do not usually cause much difficulty. We take it for granted that others use them with the same sense as we do. If it is unclear whether numerical or qualitative identity is intended, a brief gloss such as ‘one thing not two’ for the former or ‘exactly alike’ for the latter removes the unclarity. In this paper, numerical identity is intended. A particularly conscientious and logically aware speaker might explain what ‘identical’ means in her

ON ABSOLUTE CENTRAL AUTOMORPHISMS FIXING THE CENTER ELEMENTWISE

Let G be a finite p-group and let Aut_l(G) be the group of absolute central automorphisms of G. In this paper we give necessary and sufficient condition on G such that each absolute central automorphism of G fixes the centre element-wise. Also we classify all groups of orders p^3 and p^4 whose absolute central automorphisms fix the centre element-wise.

Investigation of relationship with electron configuration of chemical hardness, absolute electronegativity and electrophilicity

Chemical hardness (), absolute electronegativity (), and electrophilicity () have importantapplications in inorganic chemistry. These concepts are defined quantitatively as � � �� � ����,� � �� � ����, � � ������Where I is the ionization energy and A is the electron affinity. In thisstudy, graphical method was used to see the relation of electron configuration with chemicalhardness, absolute el...

Augmented Lagrangian method for solving absolute value equation and its application in two-point boundary value problems

One of the most important topic that consider in recent years by researcher is absolute value equation (AVE). The absolute value equation seems to be a useful tool in optimization since it subsumes the linear complementarity problem and thus also linear programming and convex quadratic programming. This paper introduce a new method for solving absolute value equation. To do this, we transform a...

Proportion dominance : The generality and variability of favoring relative savings over absolute savings q Daniel

Four studies probe Ps sensitivity to absolute and relative savings. In three studies, Ps read scenarios forcing a tradeoff of saving more lives (230 vs. 225) vs. saving a larger proportion of a population (225 ‚ 230 = 75% vs. 230 ‚ 920 = 25%). Ps preferences were driven by both absolute and relative savings. Maximizing relative savings, called ‘‘proportion dominance’’ (PD), at the expense of ab...

On equality of absolute central and class preserving automorphisms of finite $p$-groups

Let $G$ be a finite non-abelian $p$-group and $L(G)$ denotes the absolute center of $G$. Also, let $Aut^{L}(G)$ and $Aut_c(G)$ denote the group of all absolute central and the class preserving automorphisms of $G$, respectively. In this paper, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for $G$ such that $Aut_c(G)=Aut^{L}(G)$. We also characterize all finite non-abelian $p$-groups of order $p^...
