The diffusive dynamics of a particle in a medium with space-dependent friction coefficient is studied within the framework of the inertial Langevin equation. In this description, the ambiguous interpretation of the stochastic integral, known as the Itô-Stratonovich dilemma, is avoided since all interpretations converge to the same solution in the limit of small time steps. We use a newly develo...

A defensive k−alliance in a graph G = (V, E) is a set of vertices A ⊆ V such that for every vertex v ∈ A, the number of neighbors v has in A is at least k more than the number of neighbors it has in V −A (where k is the strength of defensive k−alliance). An offensive k−alliance is a set of vertices A ⊆ V such that for every vertex v ∈ ∂A, the number of neighbors v has in A is at least k more th...

When arguments are repeated in a procedure call, aliasing arises and plays havoc with specification and reasoning. To prevent this aliasing, which renders the semantics of a language unclean even when all other sources of aliasing are avoided, we propose a simple new scheme for parameter passing that uses initial values for passing second and subsequent repeated arguments and localizes the effe...
