A new computational method for solving the fifth order Korteweg-de Vries (fKdV) equation is proposed. The nonlinear partial differential equation is discretized in space using the discrete singular convolution (DSC) scheme and an exponential time integration scheme combined with the best rational approximations based on the Carathéodory-Fejér procedure for time discretization. We check several ...

We suggest an approach to grid optimization for a second order finite-difference scheme for elliptic equations. A model problem corresponding to the three-point finite-difference semidiscretization of the Laplace equation on a semi-infinite strip is considered. We relate the approximate boundary Neumann-to-Dirichlet map to a rational function and calculate steps of our finite-difference grid us...

in a subclass of the scale-parameter exponential family, we consider the sequential pointestimation of a function of the scale parameter under the loss function given as the sum of the weightedsquared error loss and a linear cost. for a fully sequential sampling scheme, second order expansions areobtained for the expected sample size as well as for the regret of the procedure. the former resear...

We consider the four families of recognizable, synchronous, deterministic rational and rational subsets of a direct product of free monoids. They form a strict hierarchy and we investigate the following decision problem: given a relation in one of the family, does it belong to a smaller family? We settle the problem entirely when all monoids have a unique generator and fill some gaps in the gen...

In this article, a new censoring scheme is considered, namely, a middle part of a random sample is censored. A treatment for reconstructing the missing order statistics is investigated. The proposed procedure is studied in detail under exponential distribution which is widely used as a constant failure model in reliability. Different approaches are used to obtain point and interval reconstructo...
