(Thus the subgradients of / correspond to the nonvertical supporting hyperplanes to the convex set consisting of all the points of E®R lying above the graph of /.) The set of subgradients of / at x is denoted by dfix). If d/(x) is not empty, / is said to be subdifferentiable at x. If/actually had a gradient x* = V/(x) at x in the sense of Gateaux (or Frechet), one would in particular have d/(x)...

Human Motion Analysis (HMA) is currently one of the most popularly active research domains as such significant research interests are motivated by a number of real world applications such as video surveillance, sports analysis, healthcare monitoring and so on. However, most of these real world applications face high levels of uncertainties that can affect the operations of such applications. He...

A class of regular semigroups closed under taking direct products, regular subsemigroups, and homomorphic images is an existence-variety (or evariety) of regular semigroups. Each e-variety of locally inverse semigroups can be characterized by a set of bi-identities. These are identities of terms of type (2, 2) in two sorts of variables X and X'. In this paper we obtain a basis of bi-identities ...

Graphs and digraphs treated here are finite and simple. Let G = (V (G), E(G)) be a connected graph with vertex set V (G) and edge set E(G), and D the symmetric digraph corresponding toG. SetD(G) = {(u, v), (v, u) | uv ∈ E(G)}. For e = (u, v) ∈ D(G), set u = o(e) and v = t(e). Furthermore, let e−1 = (v, u) be the inverse of e = (u, v). A path P of length n in G is a sequence P = (e1, · · · , en)...

Let Z2 = {0, 1} and G = (V ,E) be a graph. A labeling f : V → Z2 induces an edge labeling f* : E →Z2 defined by f*(uv) = f(u).f (v). For i ε Z2 let vf (i) = v(i) = card{v ε V : f(v) = i} and ef (i) = e(i) = {e ε E : f*(e) = i}. A labeling f is said to be Vertex-friendly if | v(0) − v(1) |≤ 1. The vertex balance index set is defined by {| ef (0) − ef (1) | : f is vertex-friendly}. In this paper ...

A Blaschke product has no radial limits on a subset E of the unit circle T but unrestricted limit at each point if and only is closed set measure zero.

Let e ⊂ R be a finite union of l + 1 disjoint closed intervals and denote by ωj the harmonic measure of the j leftmost bands. The frequency module for e is the set of all integral combinations of ω1, . . . , ωl. Let {ãn, b̃n}n=1 be a point in the isospectral torus for e and p̃n its orthogonal polynomials. Let {an, bn}n=1 be a half-line Jacobi matrix with an = ãn+δan, bn = b̃n+δbn. Suppose

A topological classification scheme consists of two ingredients: (1) an abstract class X of topological spaces; and (2) a "taxonomy", i.e. a list of first order sentences, together with a way of assigning an abstract class of spaces to each sentence of the list so that logically equivalent sentences are assigned the same class. X, is then endowed with an equivalence relation, two spaces belongi...

The goals of this paper are first to describe and then to apply an ergodictheoretic generalization of the Siegel integral formula from the geometry of numbers. The general formula will be seen to serve both as a guide and as a tool for questions concerning the distribution, in senses to be made precise, of the set of closed leaves of measured foliations subordinate to meromorphic quadratic diff...

Every in nite binary sequence is Turing reducible to a random one. This is a corollary of a result of P eter G acs stating that for every co-r.e. closed set with positive measure of in nite sequences there exists a computable mapping which maps a subset of the set onto the whole space of in nite sequences. Cristian Calude asked whether in this result one can replace the positive measure conditi...
