It is proved that the equality ?ln |k-?| = 6k, where k is the Gaussian curvature of a metric tensor 1 on a 2-dimensional manifold is a sufficient and necessary condition for local realizability of the metric as the Blaschke metric of some affine sphere. Consequently, the set of all improper local affine spheres with nowhere-vanishing Pick invariant can be parametrized by harmonic functions.

A Laguerre surface is known to be minimal if and only if its corresponding isotropic map is biharmonic. For every Laguerre surfaceΦis its associated surfaceΨ=1+u2Φ, whereulies in the unit disk. In this paper, the projection of the surfaceΨassociated to a Laguerre minimal surface is shown to be biharmonic. A complete characterization ofΨis obtained under the assumption that the corresponding isotropic map of the Laguerre minimal surface is harmonic. A sufficient and necessary condition is also derived forΨto be a graph. Estimates of the Gaussian curvature to the Laguerre minimal surface are obtained, and several illustrative examples are given.

Abstract In this study, we obtain the scalar and matrix exponential functions through a series of quaternion-valued functions on time scales. A sufficient and necessary condition is established to guarantee that the induced matrix is real-valued for the complex adjoint matrix of a quaternion matrix. Moreover, the Cauchy matrices and Liouville formulas for the quaternion homogeneous and nonhomogeneous impulsive dynamic equations are given and proved. Based on it, the existence, uniqueness, and expressions of their solutions are also obtained, including their scalar and matrix forms. Since the quaternion algebra is noncommutative, many concepts and properties of the non-quaternion impulsive dynamic equations are ineffective, we provide several examples and counterexamples on various time scales to illustrate the effectiveness of our results.

AbstractThis paper studies the linear fractional-order delay differential equation $$ {}^{C}D^{\alpha }_{-}x(t)-px(t-\tau )= 0, $$ D − α C x ( t ) − p x ( t − τ ) = 0 , where $0<\alpha =\frac{\text{odd integer}}{\text{odd integer}}<1$ 0 < α = odd integer odd integer < 1 , $p, \tau >0$ p , τ > 0 , ${}^{C}D_{-}^{\alpha }x(t)=-\Gamma ^{-1}(1-\alpha )\int _{t}^{\infty }(s-t)^{- \alpha }x'(s)\,ds$ D − α C x ( t ) = − Γ − 1 ( 1 − α ) ∫ t ∞ ( s − t ) − α x ′ ( s ) d s . We obtain the conclusion that $$ p^{1/\alpha } \tau >\alpha /e $$ p 1 / α τ > α / e is a sufficient and necessary condition of the oscillations for all solutions of Eq. (*). At the same time, some sufficient conditions are obtained for the oscillations of multiple delays linear fractional differential equation. Several examples are given to illustrate our theorems.

Creativity is the key to obtaining and maintaining competitiveness of modern organizations, and it has attracted much attention from academic circles and management practices. Shared leadership is believed to effectively influence team output. However, research on the impact of individual creativity is still in its infancy. This study adopts the qualitative comparative analysis method, taking 1584 individuals as the research objects, underpinned by a questionnaire-based survey. It investigates the influence of the team’s shared leadership network elements and organizational environmental factors on the individual creativity. We have found that there are six combination of conditions of shared leadership and organizational environmental factors constituting sufficient combination of conditions to increase or decrease individual creativity. Moreover, we have noticed that the low network density of shared leadership is a sufficient and necessary condition of reducing individual creativity. Our results also provide management suggestions for practical activities during the team management.

Abstract Nonlocal game as a witness of the nonlocality of entanglement is of fundamental importance in various fields. The well-known nonlocal games or equivalent linear Bell inequalities are only useful for Bell networks consisting of single entanglement. Our goal in this paper is to propose a unified method for constructing cooperating games in network scenarios. We propose an efficient method to construct multipartite nonlocal games from any graphs. The main idea is the graph representation of entanglement-based quantum networks. We further specify these graphic games with quantum advantages by providing a simple sufficient and necessary condition. The graphic games imply a linear Bell testing of the nonlocality of general quantum networks consisting of EPR states. It also allows generating new instances going beyond CHSH game. These results have interesting applications in quantum networks, Bell theory, computational complexity, and theoretical computer science.

In this paper, we give some new characterizations of g-frames, g-Bessel sequences and g-Riesz bases from their topological properties. By using the Gram matrix associated with the g-Bessel sequence, we present a sufficient and necessary condition under which the sequence is a g-Bessel sequence (or g-Riesz basis). Finally, we consider the excess of a g-frame and obtain some new results.

Possibility measures and credibility measures are widely used in fuzzy set theory. Compared with possibility measures, the advantage of credibility measures is the self-duality property. This paper gives a relation between possibility measures and credibility measures, and proves a sufficient and necessary condition for credibility measures. Finally, the credibility extension theorem is shown.

AbstractGauss' Theorema Egregium produces a partial differential equation which relates the Gaussian curvature K to components of the metric tensor and its derivatives. Well-known partial differential equations (PDEs) such as the Schrödinger equation and the sine-Gordon equation can be derived from Gauss' equation for specific choices of K and coördinate systems. In this paper we consider a class of Bäcklund Transformations which corresponds to coördinate transformations on surfaces with a given Gaussian curvature. These Bäcklund Transformations lead to the construction of solutions to certain classes of non-linear second order PDEs of hyperbolic type by identifying these PDEs as the Gauss equation in some coördinate system. The possibility of solving the Cauchy Problem has also been explored for these classes of equations.

In this study, a new formation behavior problem for second-order multi-agent systems with time delay is investigated in the presence of antagonistic interactions. We first proposed a formation behavior protocol with time delay for each agent in the antagonistic network. Then, by a frequency-domain analysis, a sufficient and necessary condition is derived to guarantee the consensus stability of the multi-agent system. It is shown that the agents in the same group form their own desired formation while keeping a desired relative position with other groups. Finally, numerical simulations are provided to illustrate the obtained results.

The consensus problems of two situations for singular multi-agent systems with fixed topology are discussed: directed graph without spanning tree and the disconnected undirected graph. A sufficient and necessary condition is obtained by applying the stability theory and the system is reachable asymptotically. But for normal systems, this can’t occur in upper two situations. Finally a simulation example is provided to verify the effectiveness of our theoretical result.
