in this paper, we give some characterizations for legendre spherical, legendre normal and legendre rectifying curves in the 3-dimensional sasakian space. furthermore, we show that legendre spherical curves are also legendre normal curves. in particular, we prove that the inverse of curvature of a legendre rectifying curve is a non-constant linear function of the arclength parameter.

We study the elliptic curve E given by y = x(x+1)(x+ t) over the rational function field k(t) and its extensions Kd = k(μd, t). When k is finite of characteristic p and d = p + 1, we write down explicit points onE and show by elementary arguments that they generate a subgroup Vd of rank d − 2 and of finite index in E(Kd). Using more sophisticated methods, we then show that the Birch and Swinner...

Scalar multiplication on Legendre form elliptic curves can be speeded up in two ways. One can perform the bulk of the computation either on the associated Kummer line or on an appropriate twisted Edwards form elliptic curve. This paper provides details of moving to and from between Legendre form elliptic curves and associated Kummer line and moving to and from between Legendre form elliptic cur...

We are interested in the problem of curve identification, motivated by problems in handwriting recognition. Various geometric approaches have been proposed, with one of the most popular being “elastic matching.” We examine the problem using distances defined by inner products on functional spaces. In particular we examine the Legendre and Legendre-Sobolev inner products. We show that both of th...

a total of 260709 monthly test day milk records of 30903 first lactation holstein cows was used to determine the best function to describe the lactation curve. the records were obtained from first lactation holstein of 216 herds from 1988 to 2006 in khorasan province. the functions used in current study were wood’s incomplete gamma function, ali and schaeffer function, and legendre function of ...
