’ s Note : On the Curv ature of Space

چکیده

There is probably not a single relativist who does not know about these two papers, the ® rst published papers on the idea of an expanding and evolving universe. Nevertheless, the number of those who know what the papers actually contain or do not contain is much smaller. Legends have established themselv es about what part of the credit belongs to Alexander Friedmann, what part belongs to Georges Lemâítre, etc., and false information is being multiplied through citations. Hence, the main purpose of reprinting these not-too-easily accessible papers is to make them more generally available to contemporary physicists and to put some of those persisten t legends aside. Also, Friedmann’ s own presentation has pedagogica l value and may be of use in modern courses on relativit y. Friedmann’ s derivation of the metrics of spatially homogeneous and isotropic spacetimes is not perfectly precise from the mathematical point of

A Note on Belief Structures and S-approximation Spaces

We study relations between evidence theory and S-approximation spaces. Both theories have their roots in the analysis of Dempsterchr('39')s multivalued mappings and lower and upper probabilities, and have close relations to rough sets. We show that an S-approximation space, satisfying a monotonicity condition, can induce a natural belief structure which is a fundamental block in evidence theory...

A note on convergence in fuzzy metric spaces

The sequential $p$-convergence in a fuzzy metric space, in the sense of George and Veeramani, was introduced by D. Mihet as a weaker concept than convergence. Here we introduce a stronger concept called $s$-convergence, and we characterize those fuzzy metric spaces in which convergent sequences are $s$-convergent. In such a case $M$ is called an $s$-fuzzy metric. If $(N_M,ast)$ is a fuzzy metri...

Further Observations on Blocking Zeros in Linear Muitivariabie systems (RESEARCH NOTE).

While attempting to clarify the confusion concerning the conceptualization of "blocking zeros" in state space in the recent literature, some new observations are made on the relationship between pole-zero cancellation and transmission blocking. An important distinction between uncontrollable and unobservable eigenvalue s is pointed out; and it is argued that the description of a Blocking Zero, ...

A note on the new basis in the mod 2 Steenrod algebra

‎The Mod $2$ Steenrod algebra is a Hopf algebra that consists of the primary cohomology operations‎, ‎denoted by $Sq^n$‎, ‎between the cohomology groups with $mathbb{Z}_2$ coefficients of any topological space‎. ‎Regarding to its vector space structure over $mathbb{Z}_2$‎, ‎it has many base systems and some of the base systems can also be restricted to its sub algebras‎. ‎On the contrary‎, ‎in ...
