AbstractThis paper examines the effect of rurality on party system fragmentation in the Nigerian presidential elections of the fourth republic. The findings show that party system fragmentation (PSF) has been characteristically low in the Nigerian presidential elections and rurality does not significantly predict party system fragmentation. Rurality has a negative effect on PSF in all the elections studied except the 2003 election but only significant in the 2011 poll. Thus, the paper cast doubt on previous studies that indicate that striking rural-urban differences manifest in party system fragmentation in African elections and attribute it to previous studies’ measure of rurality. The paper argues that the use of a composite measure of rurality instead of singular measures of rurality might provide better analysis that helps us understand the effect of rurality on party systems. Also, it argues that in the study of the rural-urban difference in voting behaviour or political behaviours more broadly, data should be aggregated based on cities and non-city areas because cities have distinctive urban characters compared with non-city places. Analyses done on states or constituencies level may not reveal the rural-urban difference because states and constituencies usually have a mix of rural and urban population and other characteristics.

Introduction. A famous construction of Wiener and Wintner ((13)), later refined by Salem ((11)) and extended by Schaeffer ((12)) and Ivašev-Musatov ((8)), produces a non-negative, singular, continuous measure μ on [ − π,π[ such thatfor every ∈ > 0. It is plain that the convolution μ * μ is absolutely continuous and in fact has Lebesgue–Radon–Nikodým derivative f such that For general locally compact Abelian groups, no exact analogue of (1 · 1) seems possible, as the character group may admit no natural order. However, it makes good sense to ask if μ* μ is absolutely continuous and has pth power integrable derivative. We will construct continuous singular measures μ on all non-discrete locally compact Abelian groups G such that μ * μ is a absolutely continuous and for which the Lebesgue–Radon–Nikodým derivative of μ * μ is in, for all real p > 1.

The problem of groundwater filtration under a point dam in a piecewise homogeneous porous medium in the presence of a weakly permeable film under the dam is considered. The filtration area is considered in the form of a vertical half-plane with a horizontal line of water courses. A weakly permeable film divides the filtration area into two quadrants with different constant permeability. By the convolution method of Fourier expansions, the solution of the problem is obtained explicitly. The influence of a weakly permeable film on the filtration process is investigated. It is shown that the presence of a weakly permeable film reduces the filtration rates in the downstream.

Using the winding of measures on torus in "rational directions" special classes of unitary operators and pairs of isometries are defined. This provides nontrivial examples of generalized powers. Operators related to winding Szegö-singular measures are shown to have specific properties of their invariant subspaces.

AbstractNonlocal diffusion equations and their numerical approximations have attracted much attention in the literature as nonlocal modeling becomes popular in various applications. This paper continues the study of robust discretization schemes for the numerical solution of nonlocal models. In particular, we present quadrature-based finite difference approximations of some linear nonlocal diffusion equations in multidimensions. These approximations are able to preserve various nice properties of the nonlocal continuum models such as the maximum principle and they are shown to be asymptotically compatible in the sense that as the nonlocality vanishes, the numerical solutions can give consistent local limits. The approximation errors are proved to be of optimal order in both nonlocal and asymptotically local settings. The numerical schemes involve a unique design of quadrature weights that reflect the multidimensional nature and require technical estimates on nonconventional divided differences for their numerical analysis. We also study numerical approximations of nonlocal Green’s functions associated with nonlocal models. Unlike their local counterparts, nonlocal Green’s functions might become singular measures that are not well defined pointwise. We demonstrate how to combine a splitting technique with the asymptotically compatible schemes to provide effective numerical approximations of these singular measures.
