During the next decade, many African countries will almost certainly become more politically and economically stable. An increase in the amount of foreign private investment as well as the blossoming of local entrepreneurship will inevitably follow. When this happens, government and private institutions will face obstacles of a different kind. As in most developed economies, the focus will chan...

In this paper, we dene the concepts of compatibility between twofuzzy subsets on Q, the set of states of a max- min general fuzzy automatonand transitivity in a max-min general fuzzy automaton. We then construct auniform structure on Q, and dene a topology on it. We also dene the conceptof semi-uniform structures on a nonempty set X and construct a semi-uniformstructure on the set of states of ...

We provide a systematic deterministic numerical scheme to approximate the volume (i.e., Lebesgue measure) of basic semi-algebraic set whose description follows correlative sparsity pattern. As in previous works (without sparsity), underlying strategy is consider an infinite-dimensional linear program on measures optimal value set. This particular instance generalized moment problem which turn c...
