‎let $g$ be a finite group‎. ‎we say that the derived covering number of $g$ is finite if and only if there exists a positive integer $n$ such that $c^n=g'$ for all non-central conjugacy classes $c$ of $g$‎. ‎in this paper we characterize solvable groups $g$ in which the derived covering number is finite‎.‎

PURPOSE During the last decades, derivatives and integrals of non-integer orders are being more commonly used for the description of constitutive behavior of various viscoelastic materials including soft biological tissues. Compared to integer order constitutive relations, non-integer order viscoelastic material models of soft biological tissues are capable of capturing a wider range of viscoel...

presented here is a generalization of the implicit enumeration algorithm that can be applied when the objec-tive function is being maximized and can be rewritten as the difference of two non-decreasing functions. also developed is a computational algorithm, named linear speedup, to use whatever explicit linear constraints are present to speedup the search for a solution. the method is easy to u...

A non-abelian finite group is called sequenceable if for some positive integer , is -generated ( ) and there exist integers such that every element of is a term of the -step generalized Fibonacci sequence , , , . A remarkable application of this definition may be find on the study of random covers in the cryptography. The 2-step generalized sequences for the dihedral groups studi...

multi-objective optimization is the simultaneous consideration of two or more objective functions that are completely or partially inconflict with each other. the optimality of such optimizations is largely defined through the pareto optimality. multiple objective integer linear programs (moilp) are special cases of multiple criteria decision making problems. numerous algorithms have been desig...
