Novel threshold concepts in the mathematical sciences
نویسندگان
چکیده
The purpose of this research is to identify and examine some unusual, unexpected or novel threshold concepts in mathematics. This is ongoing work that contributes towards the development of a suite of resources and strategies for helping learners in the mathematical sciences work towards fulfilling their potential by successfully negotiating and passing through liminal spaces. This project is an offshoot of an ongoing Professional Development Unit for training tertiary mathematics teachers, initiated by the second author, supported by the (former) Australian Learning and Teaching Council, and sponsored by the Australian Mathematical Society. This Unit is linked to the Society’s website.

TREE AUTOMATA BASED ON COMPLETE RESIDUATED LATTICE-VALUED LOGIC: REDUCTION ALGORITHM AND DECISION PROBLEMS
In this paper, at first we define the concepts of response function and accessible states of a complete residuated lattice-valued (for simplicity we write $mathcal{L}$-valued) tree automaton with a threshold $c.$ Then, related to these concepts, we prove some lemmas and theorems that are applied in considering some decision problems such as finiteness-value and emptiness-value of recognizable t...
متن کاملAn Efficient Threshold Verifiable Multi-Secret Sharing Scheme Using Generalized Jacobian of Elliptic Curves
In a (t,n)-threshold secret sharing scheme, a secret s is distributed among n participants such that any group of t or more participants can reconstruct the secret together, but no group of fewer than t participants can do. In this paper, we propose a verifiable (t,n)-threshold multi-secret sharing scheme based on Shao and Cao, and the intractability of the elliptic curve discrete logar...
متن کاملOn ev-degree and ve-degree topological indices
Recently two new degree concepts have been defined in graph theory: ev-degree and ve-degree. Also the evdegree and ve-degree Zagreb and Randić indices have been defined very recently as parallel of the classical definitions of Zagreb and Randić indices. It was shown that ev-degree and ve-degree topological indices can be used as possible tools in QSPR researches . In this paper we d...
متن کاملOn Prime and Semiprime Ideals in Ordered AG-Groupoids
The aim of this short note is to introduce the concepts of prime and semiprime ideals in ordered AG-groupoids with left identity. These concepts are related to the concepts of quasi-prime and quasi-semiprime ideals, play an important role in studying the structure of ordered AG-groupoids, so it seems to be interesting to study them.
متن کاملA novel technique for a class of singular boundary value problems
In this paper, Lagrange interpolation in Chebyshev-Gauss-Lobatto nodes is used to develop a procedure for finding discrete and continuous approximate solutions of a singular boundary value problem. At first, a continuous time optimization problem related to the original singular boundary value problem is proposed. Then, using the Chebyshev- Gauss-Lobatto nodes, we convert the continuous time op...
