A Systematic Construction of Almost Integers

نویسنده

  • Maysum Panju
چکیده

Motivated by the search for “almost integers”, we describe the algebraic integers known as Pisot numbers, and explain how they can be used to easily find irrational values that can be arbitrarily close to whole numbers. Some properties of the set of Pisot numbers are briefly discussed, as well as some applications of these numbers to other areas of mathematics.

Three Graceful Operations

A graph of size n is said to be graceful when is possible toassign distinct integers from {0, 1, . . . , n} to its verticesand {|f(u)−f(v)| : uv ∈ E(G)} consists of n integers. Inthis paper we present broader families of graceful graphs; these families are obtained via three different operations: the third power of a caterpillar, the symmetric product of G and K2 , and the disjoint union of G a...

An Integer Construction of Infinitesimals: Toward a Theory of Eudoxus Hyperreals

A construction of the real number system based on almost homomorphisms of the integers Z was proposed by Schanuel, Arthan, and others. We combine such a construction with the ultrapower or limit ultrapower construction, to construct the hyperreals out of integers. In fact, any hyperreal field, whose universe is a set, can be obtained by such a one-step construction directly out of integers. Eve...

Multiparametric oscillator Hamiltonians with exact bound states in infinite-dimensional space

Bound states in quantum mechanics must almost always be constructed numerically. One of the best known exceptions concerns the central D−dimensional (often called “anharmonic”) Hamiltonian H = p + a |~r|2 + b |~r|4 + . . . + z |~r|4q+2 (where z = 1) with a complete and elementary solvability at q = 0 (central harmonic oscillator, no free parameters) and with an incomplete, N−level elementary an...

Almost uniserial modules

An R-module M is called Almost uniserial module, if any two non-isomorphic submodules of M are linearly ordered by inclusion. In this paper, we investigate some properties of Almost uniserial modules. We show that every finitely generated Almost uniserial module over a Noetherian ring, is torsion or torsionfree. Also the construction of a torsion Almost uniserial modules whose first nonzero Fit...

Developing a conceptual model based upon the Latin Hypercube Sampling for integrating OHS into project risk evaluation

Abstract Project management in construction industry, in many cases, is imperfect with respect to the integration of Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) risks. This imperfection exhibits itself as complications affecting the riskiness of industrial procedures and is illustrated usually by poor awareness of OHS within project teams. Difficulties on OHS regularly came about in the construction i...
