Since the theory of ideals plays an important role in the theory of semirings, in this paper we will make an intensive study of the notions of primal and weakly primal ideals in commutative semirings with an identity 1. It is shown that these notions inherit most of the essential properties of the primal and weakly primal ideals of a commutative ring with non-zero identity. Also, the relationsh...

The problem of computing the set prime implicants to represent a Boolean function is classical that still considered running for research because all known approaches have limitations. article reviews existing methods and highlights their limitations, particularly multi-output functions limited scalability due growth in memory required complete computation. Then it proposes recursive ternary-ba...

OBJECTIVE Following a meaningful prime stimulus, schizophrenia patients have been hypothesized to exhibit impaired neurophysiological activation of related concepts in general, and/or supranormal activation of weakly related concepts in particular, within semantic memory. The former abnormality may occur at longer intervals, and the latter at shorter intervals, after the prime. The authors test...

A combinatorial 2-manifold is called weakly regular if the action of its automorphism group on its vertices is transitive. A combinatorial 2-manifold is called degree-regular if each of its vertices have the same degree. Clearly, a weakly regular combinatorial 2-manifold is degree-regular. In [5], Lutz has classified all the weakly-regular combinatorial 2-manifolds on at most 15 vertices, among...

All rings are commutative with identity and all modules are unital. Let R be a ring, M an R-module and R(M), the idealization of M . Homogenous ideals of R(M) have the form I (+)N , where I is an ideal of R and N a submodule of M such that IM ⊆ N . A ring R (M) is called a homogeneous ring if every ideal of R (M) is homogeneous. In this paper we continue our recent work on the idealization of m...

In this paper, for a prime p and a positive integer q such that q|pn − 1, we constructed q-ary Lempel– Cohn–Eastman(LCE) sequences with period p − 1. These sequences have maximum autocorrelation magnitude bounded by 4. Particularly, in the case of q = 3, the maximum autocorrelation magnitude of the ternary LCE sequences is 3. And the maximum autocorrelation magnitude of the quaternary LCE seque...

In this paper, we generalize the construction of strongly regular graphs in Tan et al. (J. Comb. Theory, Ser. A 117:668–682, 2010) from ternary bent functions to p-ary bent functions, where p is an odd prime. We obtain strongly regular graphs with three types of parameters. Using certain non-quadratic p-ary bent functions, our constructions can give rise to new strongly regular graphs for small...
