We study a division problem which allocates resources to agents with single-peaked preferences, who have a right to decide for the participation. We introduce the generalized uniform rule which assigns resources to agent as equally as possible subject to the participation constraints. We present various characterizations of the generalized uniform rule on the basis of separability principle.

Using Hayashi's inequality, an Iyengar type inequality for functions with bounded second derivative is obtained. This result improves a similar result from [N. Elezovi´c, J. Pečari´c, Steffensen's inequality and estimates of error in trapezoidal rule, Appl. In 1938 Iyengar proved the following inequality in [1]: Theorem 1. Let function f be differentiable on [a, b] and | f (x)| ≤ M. Then 1 b − ...

If Visser’s rules are admissible for an intermediate logic, they form a basis for the admissible rules of the logic. How to characterize the admissible rules of intermediate logics for which not all of Visser’s rules are admissible is not known. Here we study the situation for specific intermediate logics. We provide natural examples of logics for which Visser’s rule are derivable, admissible b...

Throughout this report, polling systems play a central role. Polling systems are queueing systems consisting of multiple queues, attended by a single server. The server can only serve one queue at a time. Whenever the server moves from one queue to another, a stochastic, non-zero switch-over time is incurred. The server never idles; even when there are no customers waiting in the system, the se...

Welch & Peers (1963) used a root-information prior to obtain posterior probabilities for a scalar parameter exponential model and showed that these Bayes probabilities had the confidence property to second order asymptotically. An important undercurrent of this indicates that the constant information reparameterization provides location model structure, for which the confidence property ...

We explore an intimate connection between Young tableaux and representations of the symmetric group. We describe the construction of Specht modules which are irreducible representations of Sn, and also highlight some interesting results such as the branching rule and Young’s rule.

Following the ideas of Liniger and Willoughby (although acting along different lines), a new family of schemes, derived from the trapezoidal rule, is developed, which enables the fitting of the scheme to arbitrary sets of equations.

the leopard moth, zeuzera pyrina (l.) (lepidoptera: cossidae) is a serious pest of walnut and apple trees in iran. one of the control methods for this pest is the mass trapping of males using pheromone traps. to determine the best size and color of traps, four different colors (green, yellow, white, gray) and two different sizes (delta shape with standard adhesive surface, 19 × 22 cm and trapez...

In this paper, a numerical method for integration of fuzzy functions is considered. Fuzzy Newton-Cotes formula, such as fuzzy trapezoidal method and fuzzy Simpson method are calculated by integration of fuzzy functions on two and three equally space points. Also the composite fuzzy trapezoidal and composite fuzzy Simpson method are proposed for n equally space points. The proposed method are il...
