in this paper, a new class of multifunctions, called generalized alpha (mu_{x};mu_{ y} )-continuous multifunctions, has been dened and studied. some characterizations and severalproperties concerning generalized alpha (mu_{x};mu_{ y} )-continuous multifunctions are obtained. the re-lationships between generalized alpha (mu_{x};mu_{ y} )-continuous multifunctions and some known con-ce...

Presented here is a generalization of the implicit enumeration algorithm that can be applied when the objec-tive function is being maximized and can be rewritten as the difference of two non-decreasing functions. Also developed is a computational algorithm, named linear speedup, to use whatever explicit linear constraints are present to speedup the search for a solution. The method is easy to u...

ents near these stations become increasingly steep. The generalized skew map selected for this study was based on a grid spacing of 20,000 meters and 12 stations. The part of the map for western Oregon is shown in figure 8. This map was selected because it had the smallest mean square error while having skew isolines that are smooth and with no peaks or valleys. This map offers considerable imp...

There exists a calculus for general nondifferentiable functions that englobes a large part of the familiar subdifferential calculus for convex nondifferentiable functions [1]. This development started with F.H. Clarke, who introduced a generalized gradient for functions that are locally Lipschitz, but (possibly) nondifferentiable. Generalized gradients turn out to be the subdifferentials, in th...

In this work first we study the properties of nearsemirings to introduce an α-radical. Then we observe the role of near-semirings in generalized linear sequential machines, and we test the minimality through the radical.

In this paper, we study the existence of infinitely many homoclinic solutions for a class of second order Hamiltonian systems with general potentials near the origin. Recent results from the literature are generalized and significantly improved.

Stellar scintillation is shown to be a good indicator of the upper-air winds near the tropopause. The exclusion principle is recast in the context of a generalized scheme for interspecific interactions.
