The rainbow game domination subdivision number of a graph G is defined by the following game. Two players D and A, D playing first, alternately mark or subdivide an edge of G which is not yet marked nor subdivided. The game ends when all the edges of G are marked or subdivided and results in a new graph G′. The purpose of D is to minimize the 2-rainbow dominating number γr2(G ′) of G′ while A t...

Eternal inflation is a term that describes a number of different phenomena which have been classified by Winitzki. According to Winitzki’s classification these phases can be characterized by the topology of the percolating structures in the inflating, “white,” region. In this paper we discuss these phases, the transitions between them, and the way they are seen by a “Census Taker”; a hypothetic...

Let (M, g) be a complete non compact Kähler manifold with non-negative and bounded holomorphic bisectional curvature. Extending our techniques developed in [8], we prove that the universal cover M̃ of M is biholomorphic to Cn provided either that (M, g) has average quadratic curvature decay, or M supports an eternal solution to the Kähler-Ricci flow with non-negative and uniformly bounded holomo...

This thesis presents a new technique for the reconstruction of a smooth surface from a set of 3D data points. The reconstructed surface is represented by an everywhere 1 C -continuous subdivision surface which interpolates all the given data points. And the topological structure of the reconstructed surface is exactly the same as that of the data points. The new technique consists of two major ...

We introduce a class of stationary 1-D interpolating subdivision schemes, denoted by Hermite(m, L, k), which classifies all stationary Lagrange or Hermite interpolating subdivision schemes with prescribed multiplicity, support and polynomial reproduction property: Given m > 0, L > 0 and 0 ≤ k ≤ 2mL − 1, Hermite(m, L, k) is a family parametrized by m2L− m(k +1)/2 (in the symmetric case) or 2m2L−...

Let G be a simple graph. For any k ∈ N , the k−power of G is a simple graph G with vertex set V (G) and edge set {xy : dG(x, y) ≤ k} and the k−subdivision of G is a simple graph G 1 k , which is constructed by replacing each edge of G with a path of length k. So we can introduce the m−power of the n−subdivision of G, as a fractional power of G, that is denoted by G m n . In other words G m

Motivated by the lessons of black hole complementarity, we develop a causal patch description of eternal inflation. We argue that an observer cannot ascribe a semiclassical geometry to regions outside his horizon, because the large-scale metric is governed by the fluctuations of quantum fields. In order to identify what is within the horizon, it is necessary to understand the late time asymptot...

The quantum behavior of noncommutative eternal inflation is quite different from the usual knowledge. Unlike the usual eternal inflation, the quantum fluctuation of noncommutative eternal inflation is suppressed by the Hubble parameter. Due to this, we need to reconsider many conceptions of eternal inflation. In this paper we study the Hawking-Moss tunneling in noncommutative eternal inflation ...

The Eternal system supports distributed object applications that must operate continuously, without interruption of service, despite faults and despite upgrades to the hardware and the software. Based on the CORBA distributed object computing standard, the Eternal system replicates objects, invisibly and consistently, so that if one replica of an object fails, or is being upgraded, another repl...
