We establish some stability results concerning the general cubic functional equation f(x+ ky)− kf(x+ y) + kf(x− y)− f(x− ky) = 2k(k − 1)f(y) for fixed k ∈ N\{1} in the fuzzy normed spaces. More precisely, we show under some suitable conditions that an approximately cubic function can be approximated by a cubic mapping in a fuzzy sense and we establish that the existence of a solution for any ap...

In this paper a piece of a conic section is approximated by a cubic or piecewise cubic polynomial. The main tool is to define the two inner control points of the cubic as an affine combination, defined by λ ∈ [0, 1], of two control points of the conic. If λ is taken to depend on the weight w of the latter, a function λ(w) results which is used to distinguish between different algorithms and to ...

In 1958 E. Lehmer found an explicit description of those primes p for which a given prime q is a cubic residue. Her result states that if one writes 4p = L + 27M, then q is a cubic residue if and only if M/L ≡ (t − 1)/(t − 9t) mod q for some integer t. Recently, Z. Sun has stated a similar result for cubic nonresidues which follows from several corollaries appearing in an earlier paper of his. ...

The purpose of this paper is twofold: to propose two fast distribution functions for spotlights and to use terminology used in stage lighting to model these luminaries. In OpenGL and other API’s the original Warn model is used where the light distribution is computed using a power function. In professional modeling tools, a linear or a cubic function is often used. We propose the use of two dif...

The basic assumption in the traditional inventory model is that all outputs are perfect items. However, this assumption is too simplistic in the most real-life situations due to a natural phenomenon in a production process. From this it is deduced that the system produces non-perfects items which can be classified into four groups of perfect, imperfect, reworkable defective and non-reworkable d...

Coordination and harmony between different departments of a company can be an important factor in achieving competitive advantage if the company corrects alignment between strategies of different departments. This paper presents an integrated decision model based on recent advances of geometric programming technique. The demand of a product considers as a power function of factors such as produ...

One of the more difficult and central problems in computational algebraic number theory is the computation of certain invariants of a field and its maximal order. In this thesis, we consider this problem where the field in question is a purely cubic function field, K/Fq(x), with char(K) ≥ 5. In addition, we will give a divisor-theoretic treatment of the infrastructures ofK, including a descript...

In this paper, we propose a new multilevel univariate approximation method with high order accuracy using radial basis function interpolation and cubic B-spline quasi-interpolation. The proposed approach includes two schemes, which are based on radial basis function interpolation with less center points, and cubic B-spline quasi-interpolation operator. Error analysis shows that our method produ...
