AbstractIn this paper we will compute the main parameters of the parameterized codes arising from cycles. In the case of odd cycles the corresponding codes are the evaluation codes associated to the projective torus and the results are well known. In the case of even cycles we will compute the length and the dimension of the corresponding codes and also we will find lower and upper bounds for the minimum distance of this kind of codes. In many cases our upper bound is sharper than the Singleton bound.

A colouring of the vertices of a hypergraph is called conflict-free if each edge e of contains a vertex whose colour does not repeat in e. The smallest number of colours required for such a colouring is called the conflict-free chromatic number of , and is denoted by χCF(). Pach and Tardos proved that for an (2r − 1)-uniform hypergraph with m edges, χCF() is at most of the order of rm1/r log m, for fixed r and large m. They also raised the question whether a similar upper bound holds for r-uniform hypergraphs. In this paper we show that this is not necessarily the case. Furthermore, we provide lower and upper bounds on the minimum number of edges of an r-uniform simple hypergraph that is not conflict-free k-colourable.

From the perspectives of graph theory and combinatorics theory we obtain some new upper bounds on the number of encoding nodes, which can characterize the coding complexity of the network coding, both in feasible acyclic and cyclic multicast networks. In contrast to previous work, during our analysis we first investigate the simple multicast network with source rateh=2, and thenh≥2. We find that for feasible acyclic multicast networks our upper bound is exactly the lower bound given by M. Langberg et al. in 2006. So the gap between their lower and upper bounds for feasible acyclic multicast networks does not exist. Based on the new upper bound, we improve the computational complexity given by M. Langberg et al. in 2009. Moreover, these results further support the feasibility of signatures for network coding.

Cable Forces

In this work, the application of the Dykstra’s alternating projection method to find the minimum-2-norm solution for actuator forces is discussed in the case when lower and upper bounds are imposed on the actuator forces. The lower bound is due to specified pretension desired in the cables and the upper bound is due to the maximum allowable forces in the cables. This algorithm presents a systematic numerical method to determine whether or not a solution exists to the cable forces within these bounds and, if it does exist, calculate the minimum-2-norm solution for the cable forces for a given task force. This method is applied to an example 2-DOF translational cable-driven manipulator and a geometrical demonstration is presented.

Maximum Flow Problem

The general inverse maximum flow problem (denoted GIMF) is considered, where lower and upper bounds for the flow are changed so that a given feasible flow becomes a maximum flow and the distance (considering l1 norm) between the initial vector of bounds and the modified vector is minimum. Strongly and weakly polynomial algorithms for solving this problem are proposed. In the paper it is also proved that the inverse maximum flow problem where only the upper bound for the flow is changed (IMF) is a particular case of the GIMF problem.

In this paper, we obtain upper bounds on the minimum distance for turbo codes using fourth degree permutation polynomial (4-PP) interleavers of a specific interleaver length and classical turbo codes of nominal 1/3 coding rate, with two recursive systematic convolutional component codes with generator matrix G = [ 1 , 15 / 13 ] . The interleaver lengths are of the form 16 Ψ or 48 Ψ , where Ψ is a product of different prime numbers greater than three. Some coefficient restrictions are applied when for a prime p i ∣ Ψ , condition 3 ∤ ( p i − 1 ) is fulfilled. Two upper bounds are obtained for different classes of 4-PP coefficients. For a 4-PP f 4 x 4 + f 3 x 3 + f 2 x 2 + f 1 x ( mod 16 k L Ψ ) , k L ∈ { 1 , 3 } , the upper bound of 28 is obtained when the coefficient f 3 of the equivalent 4-permutation polynomials (PPs) fulfills f 3 ∈ { 0 , 4 Ψ } or when f 3 ∈ { 2 Ψ , 6 Ψ } and f 2 ∈ { ( 4 k L − 1 ) · Ψ , ( 8 k L − 1 ) · Ψ } , k L ∈ { 1 , 3 } , for any values of the other coefficients. The upper bound of 36 is obtained when the coefficient f 3 of the equivalent 4-PPs fulfills f 3 ∈ { 2 Ψ , 6 Ψ } and f 2 ∈ { ( 2 k L − 1 ) · Ψ , ( 6 k L − 1 ) · Ψ } , k L ∈ { 1 , 3 } , for any values of the other coefficients. Thus, the task of finding out good 4-PP interleavers of the previous mentioned lengths is highly facilitated by this result because of the small range required for coefficients f 4 , f 3 and f 2 . It was also proven, by means of nonlinearity degree, that for the considered inteleaver lengths, cubic PPs and quadratic PPs with optimum minimum distances lead to better error rate performances compared to 4-PPs with optimum minimum distances.

Buffer Content

We consider a fluid queue fed by a superposition of a finite number of On/Off sources, the distribution of the On period being subexponential for some of them and exponential for the others. We provide general lower and upper bounds for the tail of the stationary buffer content distribution in terms of the so-called minimal subsets of sources. We then show that this tail decays at exponential or subexponential speed according as a certain parameter is smaller or larger than the ouput rate. If we replace the subexponential tails by regularly varying tails, the upper bound and the lower bound are sharp in that they differ only by a multiplicative factor.

International audience this is an extended abstract of the full version. We study n-vertex d-dimensional polytopes with at most one nonsimplex facet with, say, d + s vertices, called almost simplicial polytopes. We provide tight lower and upper bounds for the face numbers of these polytopes as functions of d, n and s, thus generalizing the classical Lower Bound Theorem by Barnette and Upper Bound Theorem by McMullen, which treat the case s = 0. We characterize the minimizers and provide examples of maximizers, for any d.

In this work, the lower and upper bounds for total ?-electron energy (E) was studied. A method is presented, by means of which, starting with a lower bound EL and an upper bound EU for E, a sequence of auxiliary quantities E0 E1, E2,? is computed, such that E0 = EL, E0 < E1 < E2 < ?, and E = EU. Therefore, an integer k exists, such that Ek E < Ek+1. If the estimates EL and EU are of the McClelland type, then k is called the McClelland number. For almost all benzenoid hydrocarbons, k = 3.

The paper gives a short survey of the most important lower and upper bounds for total ?-electron energy, i.e., graph energy (E). In addition, a new lower and a new upper bound for E are deduced, valid for general molecular graphs. The strengthened versions of these estimates, valid for alternant conjugated hydrocarbons, are also reported.

The calculation of the mass of light scalar isosinglet meson within the Shifman–Vainshtein–Zakharov (SVZ) sum rules is revisited. We develop simple analytical methods for estimation of hadron masses in the SVZ approach and try to reveal the origin of their numerical values. The calculations of hadron parameters in the SVZ sum rules are known to be heavily based on a choice of the perturbative threshold. This choice requires some important ad hoc information. We show analytically that the scalar mass under consideration has a lower and upper bound which are independent of this choice: [Formula: see text] GeV.
