In this paper we study generalized symmetric Berwald spaces. We show that if a Berwald space $(M,F)$ admits a parallel $s-$structure then it is locally symmetric. For a complete Berwald space which admits a parallel s-structure we show that if the flag curvature of $(M,F)$ is everywhere nonzero, then $F$ is Riemannian.

We present the design and implementation of bounded-length sequence (BLS) variables for a CP solver. The domain of a BLS variable is represented as the combination of a set of candidate lengths and a sequence of sets of candidate characters. We show how this representation, together with requirements imposed by propagators, affects the implementation of BLS variables for a copying CP solver, mo...

Most data warehousing and mining involves storing and retrieving data either in numerical or symbolic form, varying from tables of numbers to text. However, when it comes to everyday images, sounds, and music, the problem turns out to be far more complex. The major problem with image data mining is not so much image storage, per se, but rather how to automatically index, extract, and retrieve i...

Let $(M^{2n},g)$ be a real hypersurface with recurrent shapeoperator and tangent to the structure vector field $xi$ of the Sasakian space form$widetilde{M}(c)$. We show that if the shape operator $A$ of $M$ isrecurrent then it is parallel. Moreover, we show that $M$is locally a product of two constant $phi-$sectional curvaturespaces.

the electronic and magnetic properties of the hypothetical compounds of mc (m=al, ga and in) are investigated by using first-principle calculations and pseudopotential plane wave self-consistent field method based on density functional theory. in order to find the most stable phase of mc (m=al, ga and in), we study them in zinc-blende (zb), rocksalt (rs), wurtzite and nias crystal structures. w...

We consider the unit tangent sphere bundle of Riemannian manifold ( M, g ) with g-natural metric G̃ and we equip it to an almost contact B-metric structure. Considering this structure, we show that there is a direct correlation between the Riemannian curvature tensor of ( M, g ) and local symmetry property of G̃. More precisely, we prove that the flatness of metric g is necessary and sufficien...
