The number of directions determined by a function over a finite field
نویسنده
چکیده
A proof is presented that shows that the number of directions determined by a function over a finite field GF (q) is either 1, at least (q+3)/2, or between q/s+1 and (q − 1)/(s − 1) for some s where GF (s) is a subfield of GF (q). Moreover the graph of those functions that determine less than half the directions is GF (s)−linear. This completes the unresolved cases s = 2 and s = 3 of the main theorem in [1].

Damage Assessment using an Inverse Fracture Mechanics approach
This paper studies the application of an inverse methodology for problem solving in fracture mechanics using the finite element analysis. The method was applied to both detection of subsurface cracks and the study of propagating cracks. The procedure for detection of subsurface cracks uses a first order optimization analysis coupled with a penalty function to solve for the unknown geometric par...
متن کاملOn the graph of a function in many variables over a finite field
Some improved bounds on the number of directions not determined by a point set in the affine space AG(k, q) are presented. More precisely, if there are more than p(q−1) directions not determined by a set of qk−1 points S then every hyperplane meets S in 0 modulo p points. This bound is shown to be tight in the case p = q and when q = p sets of qk−1 points that do not meet every hyperplane in 0 ...
متن کاملNumerical Study of Reynolds Number Effects on Flow over a Wall-Mounted Cube in a Channel Using LES
Turbulent flow over wall-mounted cube in a channel was investigated numerically using Large Eddy Simulation. The Selective Structure Function model was used to determine eddy viscosity that appeared in the subgrid scale stress terms in momentum equations. Studies were carried out for the flows with Reynolds number ranging from 1000 to 40000. To evaluate the computational results, data was compa...
متن کاملFive-value rich lines, Borel directions and uniqueness of meromorphic functions
For a meromorphic function $f$ in the complex plane, we shall introduce the definition of five-value rich line of $f$, and study the uniqueness of meromorphic functions of finite order in an angular domain by involving the five-value rich line and Borel directions. Finally, the relationship between a five-value rich line and a Borel direction is discussed, that is, every Borel direction of $f$ ...
متن کاملMathematical Modeling of Potential Flow over a Rotating Cylinder (RESEARCH NOTE)
Potential flow over rotating cylinder is usually solved by the singularity method. However,in this paper a mathematical solution is presented for this problem by direct solution of the Laplace’sequation. Flow over the cylinder was considered non-viscous. Neumann and Dirichlet boundaryconditions were used on the solid surfaces and in the infinity, respectively. Because of non-viscous flow,the La...
