We give mappings between hierarchies having nonisospectral scattering problems and hierarchies having isospectral scattering problems. Special cases of these changes of variables involve similarity variables, and similarity solutions of a hierarchy are seen to correspond to time-independent solutions of an equivalent hierarchy. We thus explain why the use of nonisospectral scattering problems a...

We present a short survey of some very recent results on the finitely additive white noise theory. We discuss the Markov property of the solution of a stochastic differential equation driven directly by a white noise, study the Radon-Nikodym derivative of the measure induced by nonlinear transformation on a Hilbert space with respect to the canonical Gauss measure thereon and obtain a represent...

The spatial discretization of the magnetic vector potential formulation of magnetoquasistatic field problems results in an infinitely stiff differential-algebraic equation system. It is transformed into a finitely stiff ordinary differential equation system by applying a generalized Schur complement. Applying the explicit Euler time integration scheme to this system results in a small maximum s...

the mathematical aspect of cartographic mapping is a process which establishes a unique connection between points of the earth’s sphere and their images on a plane. it was proven in differential geometry that an isometric mapping of a sphere onto a plane with all corresponding distances on both surfaces remaining identical can never be achieved since the two surfaces do not possess the same gau...

The revenue ranking of asymmetric auctions with two heterogenous bidders is examined. The main theorem identi…es a general environment in which the …rst-price auction is more pro…table than the second-price auction. By using mechanism design techniques, the problem is simpli…ed and several extensions are made possible. Roughly speaking, the …rst-price auction is more pro…table when the strong b...
