It is known that the solution to a Cauchy problem of linear differential equations: x′(t) = A(t)x(t), with x(t0) = x0, can be presented by the matrix exponential as exp( ∫ t t0 A(s) ds)x0, if the commutativity condition for the coefficient matrix A(t) holds: [ ∫ t t0 A(s) ds, A(t) ] = 0. A natural question is whether this is true without the commutativity condition. To give a definite answer to...

Identified are a number of conditions on square patterns that are closely related to allowing commutativity with the full pattern. Implications and examples that show non-implications are given, along with a graph that summarizes the provided information. A complete description of commutativity with the full pattern is given in both the irreducible case and the reducible case in which there are...

While the dominant approach to persistent storage in practice is to use a relational DBMS, there are some specialist applications that rely on object stores. The performance of these applications depends heavily on the efficiency of the object store’s concurrency control mechanism. Today’s predominant concurrency control mechanism is strict two-phase object locking. In the 80s, an interesting a...

This article studies an infinite dimensional analog of Milstein’s scheme for finite dimensional stochastic ordinary differential equations (SODEs). The Milstein scheme is known to be impressively efficient for SODEs which fulfill a certain commutativity type condition. This article introduces the infinite dimensional analog of this commutativity type condition and observes that a certain class ...

Partial evaluation (PE) is a powerful and general program optimization technique with many successful applications. However, it has never been investigated in the context of expressive rule-based languages like Maude, CafeOBJ, OBJ, ASF+SDF, and ELAN, which support: 1) rich type structures with sorts, subsorts and overloading; 2) equational rewriting modulo axioms such as commutativity, associat...

Field theories based on non-commutative spacetimes exhibit very distinctive non-local effects which mix the ultraviolet with the infrared in bizarre ways. In particular if the time coordinate is involved in the non-commutativity the theory seems to be seriously acausal and inconsistent with conventional hamiltonian evolution. To illustrate these effects we study the scattering of wave packets i...

Suppose n is a fixed positive integer. We introduce the relative n-th non-commuting graph ΓH,G, associated to the nonabelian subgroup H of group G. The vertex set is G \ C H,G in which C H,G = {x ∈ G : [x, y] = 1 and [x, y] = 1 for all y ∈ H}. Moreover, {x, y} is an edge if x or y belong to H and xy 6= yx or xy 6= yx. In fact, the relative n-th commutativity degree, Pn(H,G) the probability that...

Quantum discord is a manifestation of quantum correlations due to non-commutativity rather than entanglement. Two measures of quantum discord by the amount of non-commutativity via the trace norm and the Hilbert-Schmidt norm respectively are proposed in this paper. These two measures can be calculated easily for any state with arbitrary dimension. It is shown by several examples that these meas...

In this talk I review the well known relation existing between extended supersymmetry and complex geometry in the non-linear sigma-models, and then briefly discuss some recent developments related to the introduction of the nonanti-commutativity in the context of the supersymmetric non-linear sigma-models formulated in extended superspace. This contribution is suitable for both physicists and m...

In this paper, we prove common fixed point theorems in fuzzy metric spaces for weakly compatible mappings along with property (E.A.) satisfying implicit relation. Property (E.A.) buys containment of ranges without any continuity requirement besides minimizing the commutativity conditions of the maps to commutativity at their point of coincidence. Moreover, property (E.A.) allows replacing the c...
