This study is focused on a proposed alternative algorithm for Google's PageRank, named Hermitian centrality score, which employs complex numbers for scoring a node of the network to overcome the issues of PageRank’s link analysis. This study presents the Hermitian centrality score as a solution for the problems of PageRank, which are associated with the damping factor of Google’s algorithm. The algorithm for Hermitian centrality score is designed to be free from a damping factor, and it reproduces PageRank results well. Moreover, the proposed algorithm can mathematically and systematically change the point of a node of a network.

AbstractThe unwinding number of a complex number was introduced to process automatic computations involving complex numbers and multi-valued complex functions, and has been successfully applied to computations involving branches of the Lambert W function. In this partly expository note we discuss the unwinding number from a purely topological perspective, and link it to the classical winding number of a curve in the complex plane. We also use the unwinding number to give a representation of the branches $$W_k$$ W k of the Lambert W function as a line integral.

A degeneration of K3 surfaces (over the complex number field) is a proper holomorphic map π: X→Δ from a three dimensional complex manifold to a disc, such that, for t ≠ 0, the fibres Xt = π-1(t) are smooth K3 surfaces (i.e. surfaces Xt with trivial canonical class KXt = 0 and dim H1(Xt, Oxt) = 0).

It is known that para-particles, together with fermions and bosons, of a single mode can be described as an irreducible representation of the Lie (super) algebra 𝔰𝔩2(ℂ) (2-dimensional special linear algebra over the complex number ℂ), that is, they satisfy the equation of motion of a harmonic oscillator. Under the equation of motion of a harmonic oscillator, we obtain the set of the commutation relations which is isomorphic to the irreducible representation, to find that the equation of motion, conversely, can be derived from the commutation relation only for the case of either fermion or boson. If Nature admits of the existence of such a sufficient condition for the equation of motion of a harmonic oscillator, no para-particle can be allowed.

A unified complex number development of four position planar finite position theory is presented. This formulation shows that Burmester circlepoint-centerpoint theory specializes to include slider points, concurrency points, poles, and point position reduction by proper interpretation of the trivial roots of the general synthesis equations. Thus a single design technique can be used for the multiposition synthesis of most pin or slider-jointed planar mechanisms. Four position function, path, or motion generating linkages can all be designed in this manner.
