Balanced ternary number representation and arithmetic, based on the symmetric radix-3 digit set {−1, 0, +1}, has been studied at various times in the history of computing. Among established advantages of balanced ternary arithmetic are representational symmetry, favourable error characteristics and rounding by truncation. In this study, we show an additional advantage: that of lower-error trunc...

N-gram indexing is used in many practical applications. Spam detection, plagiarism detection or comparison of DNA reads. There are many data structures that can be used for this purpose, each with different characteristics. In this article the ternary search tree data structure is used. One improvement of ternary tree that can save up to 43% of required memory is introduced. In the second part ...

We describe hypergeometric functions of Deligne-Mostow type for open subsets of the configuration space of six points on P, induced from those for seven points on P. The seven point ball quotient example DM(2, 1) does not appear on Mostow’s original list [9], but does appear on Thurston’s corrected version [12]. We show that DM(2, 1) is a finite cover of the moduli space of cubic surfaces MC en...

We study the notion of a strongly normal sequence in the dual E∗ of a Banach space E. In particular, we prove that the following three conditions are equivalent: (1) E∗ has a strongly normal sequence, (2) (E∗, σ(E∗, E)) has a Schauder basic sequence, (3) E has an infinite-dimensional separable quotient.

In this paper we investigate some properties of congruences on ternary semigroups. We also define the notion of congruence on a ternary semigroup generated by a relation and we determine the method of obtaining a congruence on a ternary semigroup T from a relation R on T. Furthermore we study the lattice of congruences on a ternary semigroup and we show that this lattice is not generally modular...

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...

A new theory model based on the local composition concept (TNRF-modified NRTL (TNRF-mNRTL) model) was developed to express the short-range contribution of the excess Gibbs energy for the solutions containing polymer and electrolyte. An equation represented the activity coefficient of solvent was derived from the proposed excess Gibbs energy equation. The short-range contribution of interaction ...

abstract. in this paper we study some relations between the power andquotient power graph of a finite group. these interesting relations motivateus to find some graph theoretical properties of the quotient power graphand the proper quotient power graph of a finite group g. in addition, weclassify those groups whose quotient (proper quotient) power graphs areisomorphic to trees or paths.
