abstract. suppose g is an nvertex and medge simple graph with edge set e(g). an integervalued function f: e(g) → z is called a flow. tutte was introduced the flow polynomial f(g, λ) as a polynomial in an indeterminate λ with integer coefficients by f(g,λ) in this paper the flow polynomial of some dendrimers are computed.

in this paper, we first introduce some function spaces, with certain locally convex topologies, closely  related to the space of real-valued continuous functions on $x$,  where $x$ is a $c$-distinguished topological space. then, we show that their dual spaces can be identified in a natural way with certain spaces of radon measures.

In this paper, we first use a fuzzy preference relation with a membership function representing preference degree forcomparing two interval-valued fuzzy numbers and then utilize a relative preference relation improved from the fuzzypreference relation to rank a set of interval-valued fuzzy numbers. Since the fuzzy preference relation is a total orderingrelation that satisfies reciprocal and tra...

a necessary and sufficient condition in terms of lower cut sets are given for the insertion of a $gamma-$continuous function between two comparable real-valued functions.

‎Many optimization problems can be reduced to a problem with an increasing and co-radiant objective function by a suitable transformation of variables. Functions, which are increasing and co-radiant, have found many applications in microeconomic analysis. In this paper, the abstract convexity of positive valued affine increasing and co-radiant (ICR) functions are discussed. Moreover, the ...

This paper shows the best operators for sumof-products expressions. We first describe conditions of functions for product and sum operations. We examine all two-variable functions and select those that meet the conditions and then evaluate the number of product terms needed in the minimum sum-of-products expressions when each combination of selected product and sum functions is used. As a resul...

Many biological characteristics of evolutionary interest are not scalar variables but continuous functions. Given a dataset of function-valued traits generated by evolution, we develop a practical, statistical approach to infer ancestral function-valued traits, and estimate the generative evolutionary process. We do this by combining dimension reduction and phylogenetic Gaussian process regress...
