The standard textbook method for estimating the probability of a biased coin from finite tosses implicitly assumes the sample sizes are large and gives incorrect results for small samples. We describe the exact solution, which is correct for any sample size.

The Rayleigh beam is a perturbation of the Bernoulli-Euler beam. We establish convergence of the solution of the Exact Controllability Problem for the Rayleigh beam to the correspondig solution of the Bernoulli-Euler beam.The problem of convergence is related to a Singular Perturbation Problem. The main tool in solving this problem is a weak version of a lower bound for hyperbolic polynomials.

This article deals with the mechanical analysis of a fixed-fixed nano-beam based on nonlocal elasticity theory. The nano-beam is sandwiched with two piezoelectric layers through it’s upper and lower sides. The electromechanical coupled equations governing the problem are derived based nonlocal theory considering to Euler-Bernoulli beam assumptions and based on the nonlocal piezoelectricity acco...

In this paper, a displacement-based, variationally consistent, two variable refined theory for shear deformable beams is presented. The beam is assumed to be of linearly elastic, homogeneous, isotropic material and has a uniform rectangular cross-section. In this theory, the beam axial displacement and beam transverse displacement consist of bending components and shearing components. The assum...

In this paper, we give some further properties of p-adic q-L-function of two variables, which is recently constructed by Kim 2005 and Cenkci 2006 . One of the applications of these properties yields general classes of congruences for generalized q-Bernoulli polynomials, which are qextensions of the classes for generalized Bernoulli numbers and polynomials given by Fox 2000 , Gunaratne 1995 , an...

By using q-integration, we will give some integral equation which are related to the Barnes’ multiple Bernoulli numbers. The object of this paper is to give explicit q-integral’s formulae which are related to Barnes’ multiple q-Bernoulli polynomials. §

Let B n = b 1 +. .. + b n , n ≥ 1 where b 1 , b 2 ,. .. are independent Bernoulli random variables. In relation with the divisor problem, we evaluate the almost sure asymptotic order of the sums N n=1 d θ,D (B n), where d θ,D (B n) = #{d ∈ D, d ≤ n θ : d|B n } and D is a sequence of positive integers.

We consider explicit expansions of some elementary and q-functions in basic Fourier series introduced recently by Bustoz and Suslov. Natural q-extensions of the Bernoulli and Euler polynomials, numbers, and the Riemann zeta function are discussed as a by-product. © 2002 Elsevier Science (USA)

Previous work showed that every pair of nontrivial Bernoulli shifts over a fixed free group are orbit equivalent. In this paper, we prove that if G 1 , G 2 are nonabelian free groups of finite rank then every nontrivial Bernoulli shift over G 1 is stably orbit equivalent to every nontrivial Bernoulli shift over G 2. This answers a question of S. Popa.
