چکیده

Choose random functions f1, f2, f3, . . . independently and uniformly from among the nn functions from [n] into [n]. For t > 1, let gt = ft ◦ ft−1 ◦ · · · ◦ f1 be the composition of the first t functions, and let T be the smallest t for which gt is constant(i.e. gt(i) = gt(j) for all i, j). The goal of this paper is to determine the asymptotic distribution of T . We prove that, for any positive real number x, lim n→∞ Pr( T n ≤ x) = x ∫ 0 f(y)dy, where f(y) = ∑ k≥2 (−1)ke−y( k 2 )(2k − 1) (

Fuzzy Best Simultaneous Approximation of a Finite Numbers of Functions

Fuzzy best simultaneous approximation of a finite number of functions is considered. For this purpose, a fuzzy norm on $Cleft (X, Y right )$ and its fuzzy dual space and also the  set of subgradients of a fuzzy norm are introduced. Necessary case of a proved theorem about characterization of simultaneous approximation will be extended to the fuzzy case.

TOPOLOGY OPTIMIZATION OF PLANE STRUCTURES USING BINARY LEVEL SET METHOD AND ISOGEOMETRIC ANALYSIS

This paper presents the topology optimization of plane structures using a binary level set (BLS) approach and isogeometric analysis (IGA). In the standard level set method, the domain boundary is descripted as an isocountour of a scalar function of a higher dimensionality. The evolution of this boundary is governed by Hamilton–Jacobi equation. In the BLS method, the interfaces of subdomai...

Asymptotic Cost of Cutting Down Random Free Trees

In this work, we calculate the limit distribution of the total cost incurred by splitting a tree selected at random from the set of all finite free trees. This total cost is considered to be an additive functional induced by a toll equal to the square of the size of tree. The main tools used are the recent results connecting the asymptotics of generating functions with the asymptotics of...

Locally Contractive Iterated Function Systems

An iterated function system on X R d is deened by successively iterating an i.i.d. sequence of random Lipschitz functions from X to X. This paper shows how Fn = f 1 fn may converge even in the absence of the strong contraction conditions | for instance, Lipschitz constant smaller than 1 on average | which earlier work has required. Instead, it is posited that there be a region of contraction wh...

Solution of Harmonic Problems with Weak Singularities Using Equilibrated Basis Functions in Finite Element Method

In this paper, Equilibrated Singular Basis Functions (EqSBFs) are implemented in the framework of the Finite Element Method (FEM), which can approximately satisfy the harmonic PDE in homogeneous and heterogeneous media. EqSBFs are able to automatically reproduce the terms consistent with the singularity order in the vicinity of the singular point. The newly made bases are used as the compliment...
