‎given a finite non-cyclic group $g$‎, ‎call $sigma(g)$ the smallest number of proper subgroups of $g$ needed to cover $g$‎. ‎lucchini and detomi conjectured that if a nonabelian group $g$ is such that $sigma(g) < sigma(g/n)$ for every non-trivial normal subgroup $n$ of $g$ then $g$ is textit{monolithic}‎, ‎meaning that it admits a unique minimal normal subgroup‎. ‎in this paper we show how thi...

let $g$ be a simple graph with an orientation $sigma$‎, ‎which ‎assigns to each edge a direction so that $g^sigma$ becomes a‎ ‎directed graph‎. ‎$g$ is said to be the underlying graph of the‎ ‎directed graph $g^sigma$‎. ‎in this paper‎, ‎we define a weighted skew‎ ‎adjacency matrix with rand'c weight‎, ‎the skew randi'c matrix ${bf‎ ‎r_s}(g^sigma)$‎, ‎of $g^sigma$ as the real skew symmetric mat...

Let $A$ be a Banach ternary algebra over a scalar field $Bbb R$ or $Bbb C$ and $X$ be a ternary Banach $A$--module. Let $sigma,tau$ and $xi$ be linear mappings on $A$, a linear mapping $D:(A,[~]_A)to (X,[~]_X)$ is called a Lie ternary $(sigma,tau,xi)$--derivation, if $$D([a,b,c])=[[D(a)bc]_X]_{(sigma,tau,xi)}-[[D(c)ba]_X]_{(sigma,tau,xi)}$$ for all $a,b,cin A$, where $[abc]_{(sigma,tau,xi)}=ata...

In this paper. (1) We determine the complex-valued solutions of the following variant of Van Vleck's functional equation $$int_{S}f(sigma(y)xt)dmu(t)-int_{S}f(xyt)dmu(t) = 2f(x)f(y), ;x,yin S,$$ where $S$ is a semigroup, $sigma$ is an involutive morphism of $S$, and $mu$ is a complex measure that is linear combinations of Dirac measures $(delta_{z_{i}})_{iin I}$, such that for all $iin I$, $z_{...

‎a ring $r$ is strongly clean provided that every element‎ ‎in $r$ is the sum of an idempotent and a unit that commutate‎. ‎let‎ ‎$t_n(r,sigma)$ be the skew triangular matrix ring over a local‎ ‎ring $r$ where $sigma$ is an endomorphism of $r$‎. ‎we show that‎ ‎$t_2(r,sigma)$ is strongly clean if and only if for any $ain‎ ‎1+j(r)‎, ‎bin j(r)$‎, ‎$l_a-r_{sigma(b)}‎: ‎rto r$ is surjective‎. ‎furt...

‎In this paper‎, ‎algebraic investigations on sup-$Sigma$-algebras are presented‎. ‎A representation theorem for‎ ‎sup-$Sigma$-algebras in terms of nuclei and quotients is obtained‎. ‎Consequently‎, ‎the relationship between‎ ‎the congruence lattice of a sup-$Sigma$-algebra and the lattice of its nuclei is fully developed.

The water crisis is harmful effects on human life. Also one of the most problems in the human society is water resources management. In this study, site selection of most suitable areas for artificial recharge using Boolean model. Criteria used to select the most suitable area for artificial recharge included: infiltration, slope, aquifer thickness, aquifer quality.  The layers were produced an...
