The zero-temperature phase diagram of binary mixtures of like-charge particles interacting via a screened Coulomb pair potential is calculated as a function of composition and charge ratio. The potential energy obtained by a Lekner summation is minimized among a variety of candidate two-dimensional crystals. A wealth of different stable crystal structures is identified including A, B, AB(2), A(...

This paper presents three new methodologies for the basic operations, which aim at finding new ways of computing union (maximum) and intersection (minimum) membership values by taking into effect the entire membership values in a fuzzy set. The new methodologies are conceptually simple and easy from the application point of view and are illustrated with a variety of problems such as Cartesian p...

For little q-Jacobi polynomials, q-Hahn polynomials and big q-Jacobi polynomials we give particular q-hypergeometric series representations in which the termwise q = 0 limit can be taken. When rewritten in matrix form, these series representations can be viewed as decompositions into a lower triangular matrix times upper triangular matrix. We develop a general theory of such decompositions rela...

We study some general aspects of triangular dynamical r-matrices using Poisson geometry. We show that a triangular dynamical r-matrix r : h∗ −→ ∧g always gives rise to a regular Poisson manifold. Using the Fedosov method, we prove that non-degenerate triangular dynamical r-matrices (i.e., those such that the corresponding Poisson manifolds are symplectic) are quantizable, and that the quantizat...

As an special intuitionistic fuzzy set defined on the real number set, triangular intuitionistic fuzzy number (TIFN) is a fundamental tool for quantifying an ill-known quantity. In order to model the decision maker's overall preference with mandatory requirements, it is necessary to develop some Bonferroni harmonic mean operators for TIFNs which can be used to effectively intergrate the informa...

This paper deals with Zadeh’s compositional rule of inference [12] under triangular norms: IF X is P AND X and Y have relation R, THEN Y is Q, where P and Q are fuzzy sets of the real line IR, R is a fuzzy relation on IR and the conclusion Q is defined via sup-T composition of P and R: μQ(y) = sup x∈IR T (μP (x), μR(x, y)), y ∈ IR. It is shown that (i) when the triangular norm T and the members...

We aim at constructing a smooth basis for isogeometric function spaces on domains of reduced geometric regularity. In this context an isogeometric function is the composition of a piecewise rational function with the inverse of a piecewise rational geometry parameterization. We consider two types of singular parameterizations, domains where a part of the boundary is mapped onto one point and do...
