This essay describes the development of groups used for the specification of symmetries from ordinary and magnetic point groups to Fedorov and magnetic space groups, as well as other varieties of groups useful in the study of symmetric objects. In particular, we consider the problem of some incorrectness in Vol. A of the International Tables for Crystallography. Some results of tensor calculus ...

A general iteration formula of variational iteration method (VIM) for fractional heatand wave-like equations with variable coefficients is derived. Compared with previous work, the Lagrange multiplier of the method is identified in a more accurate way by employing Laplace’s transform of fractional order.The fractional derivative is considered in Jumarie’s sense.The results are more accurate tha...

This paper proposes low-complexity blind detection for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems with the differential space-time block code (DSTBC) under time-varying frequencyselective Rayleigh fading. The detector employs the maximum likelihood sequence estimation (MLSE) in cooperation with the blind linear prediction (BLP), of which prediction coefficients are determined by ...

We define a set of orthogonal functions on the complex projective space CPN−1, and compute their Clebsch-Gordan coefficients as well as a large class of 6–j symbols. We also provide all the needed formulae for the generation of high-temperature expansions for U(N)-invariant spin models defined on CPN−1.

Kerov considered the normalized characters of irreducible representations of the symmetric group, evaluated on a cycle, as a polynomial in free cumulants. Biane has proved that this polynomial has integer coefficients, and made various conjectures. Recently, Śniady has proved Biane’s conjectured explicit form for the first family of nontrivial terms in this polynomial. In this paper, we give an...

Abstract The discretized equilibrium distributions of the lattice Boltzmann method are presented by using the coefficients of the Lagrange interpolating polynomials that pass through the points related to discrete velocities and using moments of the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution. The ranges of flow velocity and temperature providing positive valued distributions vary with regulating discrete v...

We study the virial expansion of mixtures of countably many different types of particles. The main tool is the Lagrange–Good inversion formula, which has other applications such as counting coloured trees or studying probability generating functions in multi-type branching processes. We prove that the virial expansion converges absolutely in a domain of small densities. In addition, we establis...

Many types of radial basis functions, such as multiquadrics, contain a free parameter. In the limit where the basis functions become increasingly flat, the linear system to solve becomes highly ill-conditioned, and the expansion coefficients diverge. Nevertheless, we find in this study that limiting interpolants often exist and take the form of polynomials. In the 1-D case, we prove that with s...

In this paper, a new trend for improvement in semianalytical method based on scale boundaries in order to solve the 2D elastodynamic problems is provided. In this regard, only the boundaries of the problem domain discretization are by specific subparametric elements. Mapping functions are uses as a class of higherorder Lagrange polynomials, special shape functions, Gauss-LobattoLegendre numeric...

We consider statistical models arising from the common set of solutions to a sparse polynomial system with general coefficients. The maximum likelihood (ML) degree counts number critical points function restricted model. prove that ML generic is determined by its Newton polytopes and equals mixed volume related Lagrange equations.
