Labels distance in bucket recursive trees with variable capacities of buckets

The bucket recursive tree is a natural multivariate structure. In this paper, we apply a trivariate generating function approach for studying of the depth and distance quantities in this tree model with variable bucket capacities and give a closed formula for the probability distribution, the expectation and the variance. We show as j → ∞, lim-iting distributions are Gaussian. The results are obtained by presenting partial differential equations for moment generating functions and solving them.

Fixed point and a Cantilever beam problem in a partial b-metric space

We determine the common fixed point of two maps satisfying Hardy-Roger type contraction in a complete partial b-metric space without exploiting any variant of continuity or commutativity, which is indispensable in analogous results. Towards the end, we give examples and an application to solve a Cantilever beam problem employed in the distortion of an elastic beam in equilibrium to substantiate the utility of these improvements.

On generalized γµ-closed sets and related continuity

In this paper our main interest is to introduce a new type of generalized open sets defined in terms of an operation on a generalized topological space. We have studied some properties of this newly defined sets. As an application, we have introduced some weak separation axioms and discussed some of their properties. Finally, we have studied some preservation theorems in terms of some irresolute functions.

On expansive homeomorphism of uniform spaces

We study the notion of expansive homeomorphisms on uniform spaces. It is shown that if there exists a topologically expansive homeomorphism on a uniform space, then the space is always a Hausdor space and hence a regular space. Further, we characterize orbit expansive homeomorphisms in terms of topologically expansive homeomorphisms and conclude that if there exist a topologically expansive homeomorphism on a compact uniform space then the space is always metrizable.

A determinantal expression and a recursive relation of the Delannoy numbers

In the paper, by a general and fundamental, but non-extensively circulated, formula for derivatives of a ratio of two differentiable functions and by a recursive relation of the Hessenberg determinant, the author finds a new determinantal expression and a new recursive relation of the Delannoy numbers. Consequently, the author derives a recursive relation for computing central Delannoy numbers in terms of related Delannoy numbers.

Stability result of the Lamé system with a delay term in the internal fractional feedback

In this article, we consider a Lamé system with a delay term in the internal fractional feedback. We show the existence and uniqueness of solutions by means of the semigroup theory under a certain condition between the weight of the delay term in the fractional feedback and the weight of the term without delay. Furthermore, we show the exponential stability by the classical theorem of Gearhart, Huang and Pruss.

Some classes of sequence spaces defined by a Musielak-Orlicz function

In the present paper we introduce the sequence spaces c0{ℳ, Λ , p, q}, c{ℳ, Λ, p, q} and l ∞ {ℳ, Λ, p, q} defined by a Musielak-Orlicz function ℳ = (ℳk). We study some topological properties and prove some inclusion relations between these spaces.

A new solution to the Rhoades’ open problem with an application

We give a new solution to the Rhoades’ open problem on the discontinuity at fixed point via the notion of an S-metric. To do this, we develop a new technique by means of the notion of a Zamfirescu mapping. Also, we consider a recent problem called the “fixed-circle problem” and propose a new solution to this problem as an application of our technique.

Generalizations of Lindelöf spaces via hereditary classes

In this paper by using hereditary classes [6], we define the notion of γ -Lindelöf modulo hereditary classes called γℋ-Lindelöf and obtain several properties of γℋ-Lindelöf spaces.

On graphs with minimal distance signless Laplacian energy

For a simple connected graph G of order n having distance signless Laplacian eigenvalues ρ 1 Q ≥ ρ 2 Q ≥ ⋯ ≥ ρ n Q \rho _1^Q \ge \rho _2^Q \ge \cdots \ge \rho _n^Q , the distance signless Laplacian energy DSLE(G) is defined as D S L E ( G ) = ∑ i = 1 n | ρ i Q - 2 W ( G ) n | DSLE\left( G \right) = \sum\nolimits_{i = 1}^n {\left| {\rho _i^Q - {{2W\left( G \right)} \over n}} \right|} where W(G) is the Weiner index of G. We show that the complete split graph has the minimum distance signless Laplacian energy among all connected graphs with given independence number. Further, we prove that the graph Kk ∨ ( Kt∪ Kn−k−t), 1 ≤ t ≤ ⌊ n - k 2 ⌋ 1 \le t \le \left\lfloor {{{n - k} \over 2}} \right\rfloor has the minimum distance signless Laplacian energy among all connected graphs with vertex connectivity k.
