There are several notions of largeness in a semigroup S that originated in topological dynamics. Among these are thick , central , syndetic and piecewise syndetic. Of these, central sets are especially interesting because they are partition regular and are guaranteed to contain substantial combinatorial structure. It is known that in (N,+) any central set may be partitioned into infinitely many...

In this paper we give some sufficient conditions, which ensure the existence of pseudo almost periodic solutions to some classes of non-autonomous first-order partial neutral functional-differential with unbounded delay. c © 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Let G be a locally compact group, and let WAP(G) denote the space of weakly almost periodic functions on G. We show that, if G is a [SIN]-group, but not compact, then the dual Banach algebra WAP(G)∗ does not have a normal, virtual diagonal. Consequently, whenever G is an amenable, non-compact [SIN]-group, WAP(G)∗ is an example of a Connes-amenable, dual Banach algebra without a normal, virtual ...

Let {T (t)} t≥0 be a C-semigroup on a Banach space X with generator A. We will investigate the asymptotic almost periodicity of {T (t)} via the Hille-Yosida space of its generator.

In this note, we establish the existence of asymptotically almost periodic and almost periodic solutions for a class of partial integrodifferential equations.

Imagine a simulated world where the characters you interact with are almost human – they converse with you in English, they understand the world they are in, can reason about what to do, and they exhibit emotions. Some of these characters may be your friends, while others will oppose you. Unlike current video games, being successful in this world won’t just be a matter of who is quickest on the...

A novel multiple scales method is formulated that can be applied to problems which have an almost periodic microstructure not in Cartesian coordinates but in a general curvilinear coordinate system. The method is applied to a model of the electrical activity of cardiac myocytes and used to derive a version of the bidomain equations describing the macroscopic electrical activity of cardiac tissu...

By means of the Cauchy matrix we give sufficient conditions for the existence and exponential stability of almost periodic solutions for the delay impulsive Lasota–Wazewska model. The impulses are realized at fixed moments of time.

Following the approach introduced by Cavers and Ho, the performance of component-interleaved multidimensional constellations over the Rayleigh fading channel is evaluated analytically. Error probabilities are approximated by the union bound using an exact expression of the pairwise error probability. Simulation results show that this bound can be used effectively as a design criterion for the s...
