AbstractWe prove that for random affine code tree fractals the affinity dimension is almost surely equal to the unique zero of the pressure function. As a consequence, we show that the Hausdorff, packing and box counting dimensions of such systems are equal to the zero of the pressure. In particular, we do not presume the validity of the Falconer–Sloan condition or any other additional assumptions which have been essential in all the previously known results.

SummaryThe mathematical basis of Zelen’s suggestion [4] of pre randomizing patients in a clinical trial and then asking them for their consent is investigated. The first problem is to estimate the therapy and selection effects. In the simple prerandomized design (PRD) this is possible without any problems. Similar observations have been made by Anbar [1] and McHugh [3]. However, for the double PRD additional assumptions are needed in order to render therapy and selection effects estimable. The second problem is to determine the distribution of the statistics. It has to be taken into consideration that the sample sizes are random variables in the PRDs. This is why the distribution of the statistics can only be determined asymptotically, even under the assumption of normal distribution. The behaviour of the statistics for small samples is investigated by means of simulations, where the statistics considered in the present paper are compared with the statistics suggested by Ihm [2]. It turns out that the statistics suggested in [2] may lead to anticonservative decisions, whereas the “canonical statistics” suggested by Zelen [4] and considered in the present paper keep the level quite well or may lead to slightly conservative decisions, if there are considerable selection effects.

Complex morphologies, as is the case in self-assembled fibrillar networks (SAFiNs) of 1,3:2,4-Dibenzylidene sorbitol (DBS), are often characterized by their Fractal dimension and not Euclidean. Self-similarity presents for DBS-polyethylene glycol (PEG) SAFiNs in the Cayley Tree branching pattern, similar box-counting fractal dimensions across length scales, and fractals derived from the Avrami model. Irrespective of the crystallization temperature, fractal values corresponded to limited diffusion aggregation and not ballistic particle–cluster aggregation. Additionally, the fractal dimension of the SAFiN was affected more by changes in solvent viscosity (e.g., PEG200 compared to PEG600) than crystallization temperature. Most surprising was the evidence of Cayley branching not only for the radial fibers within the spherulitic but also on the fiber surfaces.

AbstractWe revisit the linear Cournot model with uncertain demand that is studied in Lagerlöf (2006. “Equilibrium Uniqueness in a Cournot Model with Demand Uncertainty.” The B.E. Journal of Theoretical Economics 6, no. 1. (Topics), Article 19: 1–6.) and provide sufficient conditions for equilibrium uniqueness that complement the existing results. We show that if the distribution of the demand intercept has the decreasing mean residual demand (DMRD) or the increasing generalized failure rate (IGFR) property, then uniqueness of equilibrium is guaranteed. The DMRD condition implies log-concavity of the expected profits per unit of output without additional assumptions on the existence or the shape of the density of the demand intercept and, hence, answers in the affirmative the conjecture of Lagerlöf (2006. “Equilibrium Uniqueness in a Cournot Model with Demand Uncertainty.” The B.E. Journal of Theoretical Economics 6, no. 1. (Topics), Article 19: 1–6.) that such conditions may not be necessary.

AbstractWe obtain limit theorems (Stable Laws and Central Limit Theorems, both standard and non-standard) and thermodynamic properties for a class of non-uniformly hyperbolic flows: almost Anosov flows, constructed here. The link between the pressure function and limit theorems is studied in an abstract functional analytic framework, which may be applicable to other classes of non-uniformly hyperbolic flows.

Box Counting Method

Based on industrial CT technique, Meso-mechanical experiment was conducted on construction waste recycled brick to get the real-time CT image and stress-strain curve of brick during the loading process. Box counting method was used to calculate the fractal dimension of the inner pore transfixion and crack evolution. The results showed that lots of pore in the interfacial transition zone mainly resulted in the damage of the brick. With the increase of stress, the opening through-pore appeared and crack expanded, and the fractal dimension increased.

Abstract The possibility to generalize the notion of a linear recurrent sequence (LRS) over a commutative ring to the case of a LRS over a non-commutative ring is discussed. In this context, an arbitrary bimodule AMB over left- and right-Artinian rings A and B, respectively, is associated with the equivalent bimodule of translations CMZ, where C is the multiplicative ring of the bimodule AMB and Z is its center, and the relation between the quasi-Frobenius conditions for the bimodules AMB and CMZ is studied. It is demonstrated that, in the general case, the fact that AMB is a quasi-Frobenius bimodule does not imply the validity of the quasi-Frobenius condition for the bimodule CMZ. However, under some additional assumptions it can be shown that if CMZ is a quasi-Frobenius bimodule, then the bimodule AMB is quasi-Frobenius as well.
