Abstract – A voltage-mode (VM), multi-input single-output (MISO) type multifunction biquad is proposed. It uses only one operational transresistance amplifier (OTRA) as the active element, while previously reported VM multifunction filters require more OTRAs. Proposed MISO type biquad configuration can realize all five different filter transfer functions. Theoretical results are verified with P...

It is shown that a composite Julia set generated by an infinite array of polynomial mappings is strongly analytic when regarded as a multifunction of the generating maps. An example of such a multifunction, the values of which have Hölder Continuity Property, is constructed. 1

This paper concerns a generalized equation defined by a closed multifunction between Banach spaces, and we employ variational analysis techniques to provide sufficient and/or necessary conditions for a generalized equation to have the metric subregularity (i.e., local error bounds for the concerned multifunction) in general Banach spaces. Following the approach of Ioffe [Trans. Amer. Math. Soc....

The problem of hardware-software partitioning for systems that are being designed as multifunction systems is addressed. Simulated annealing is known to generate very good solutions for most optimization problems, however the running time of this algorithm can be very high. We apply a modified simulated annealing approach to the partitioning problem resulting in a smaller search space, yet yiel...

Let d ≥ 1, and let α be an expansive Z-action by continuous automorphisms of a compact abelian group X with completely positive entropy. Then the group ∆α(X) of homoclinic points of α is countable and dense in X, and the restriction of α to the α-invariant subgroup ∆α(X) is a Z-action by automorphisms of ∆α(X). By duality, there exists a Z-action α∗ by automorphisms of the compact abelian group...
