Rota–Baxter Operators on Cocommutative Weak Hopf Algebras

In this paper, we first introduce the concept of a Rota–Baxter operator on a cocommutative weak Hopf algebra H and give some examples. We then construct Rota–Baxter operators from the normalized integral, antipode, and target map of H. Moreover, we construct a new multiplication “∗” and an antipode SB from a Rota–Baxter operator B on H such that HB=(H,∗,η,Δ,ε,SB) becomes a new weak Hopf algebra. Finally, all Rota–Baxter operators on a weak Hopf algebra of a matrix algebra are given.

Implementation of the hamming code on pascalabc.net while studying the theoretical foundations of informatics

Theoretical Foundations of Informatics is a classic branch of discrete mathematics taught to students in various information, mathematical and technical fields. The presentation of the material is mainly carried out using matrix algebra. This article describes a methodology for teaching the topic of error correcting coding to pedagogical university students as part of the course on theoretical foundations of informatics and considers an algorithm for obtaining a Hamming code through a tabular template. An original implementation of the considered algorithm in PascalABC. NET is proposed. When writing code, modern techniques are used: dynamic arrays, slices, safe slices, conditional (ternary) operation, foreach loop, sequence methods, lambda expressions, tuples, documenting comments, etc. The functions of the School module from the official delivery of the PascalABC.NET compiler are used to work with binary numbers. The described methodology has been tested in teaching 4-year students of the pedagogical direction, the profile "Mathematics and Informatics" of the Orenburg State Pedagogical University and has shown its applicability. In addition, it is possible to use the proposed approach for teaching schoolchildren at a specialized level or in extracurricular work.

A new method for determining stoichiometric coefficients using minors of a matrix

The motivation of this study was the investigation into the metallothermic reduction of chromite ores. Spinel materials have complex structures and as a result, balancing of the reduction reactions by traditional methods become very time consuming. A method to calculate the stoichiometric coefficients for chemical reactions using first a modified matrix-inverse method and then a new optimised method is proposed. The mathematical basis of both methods is explored using matrix algebra and then demonstrated using a typical chromite reduction reaction.

Characteristics of Regular Functions Defined on a Semicommutative Subalgebra of 4-Dimensional Complex Matrix Algebra

In this paper, we give an extended quaternion as a matrix form involving complex components. We introduce a semicommutative subalgebra ℂ ℂ 2 of the complex matrix algebra M 4 , ℂ . We exhibit regular functions defined on a domain in ℂ 4 but taking values in ℂ ℂ 2 . By using the characteristics of these regular functions, we propose the corresponding Cauchy–Riemann equations. In addition, we demonstrate several properties of these regular functions using these novel Cauchy–Riemann equations. Mathematical Subject Classification is 32G35, 32W50, 32A99, and 11E88.
