In this paper we intend to improve the explanatory power of regressions when the deletion method is used for the remedy of Multicolinearity. If one deletes the variable (s) that is (are) responsible for Multicolinearity, he loses some information that is not common between the deleted variable (s) and the other remaining variables in the regression. To improve this method, we run the deleted va...

we discuss whether finiteness properties of a profinite group $g$ can be deduced from the coefficients of the probabilisticzeta function $p_g(s)$. in particular we prove that if $p_g(s)$ is rational and all but finitely many non abelian composition factors of $g$ are isomorphic to $psl(2,p)$ for some prime $p$, then $g$ contains only finitely many maximal subgroups.

In this paper we introduce and study an algebraic structure, namely Grouplike. A grouplike is something between semigroup and group and its axioms are generalizations of the four group axioms. Every grouplike is a semigroup containing the minimum ideal that is also a maximal subgroup (but the converse is not valid). The first idea of grouplikes comes from b-parts and $b$-addition of real number...

In this paper, ‎The powers of fuzzy neutrosophic soft square matrices (FNSSMs) under the operations $oplus(=max)$ and $otimes(=min)$ are studied‎. ‎We show that the powers of a given FNSM stabilize if and only if its orbits stabilize for each starting fuzzy neutrosophic soft vector (FNSV) and prove a necessary and sufficient condition for this property using the associated graphs of the FNSM‎. ...

In this paper we introduce derivations in Krasner hyperrings and derive some basic properties of derivations. We also prove that for a strongly differential hyperring $R$ and for any strongly differential hyperideal $I$ of $R,$ the factor hyperring $R/I$ is a strongly differential hyperring. Further we prove that a map $d: R rightarrow R$ is a derivation of a hyperring $R$ if and only if the in...

The concept of configuration of groups which is defined in terms of finite partitions and finite strings of elements of the group is presented by Rosenblatt and Willis. To each set of configurations, a finite system of equations known as configuration equations, is associated. Rosenblatt and Willis proved that a discrete group G is amenable if and only if every possible instance of its configur...
