The symmetric algebra of a (finite-dimensional) g-module V is the algebra of polynomial functions on the dual space V . Therefore one can study the algebra of symmetric invariants using geometry of G-orbits in V ∗ . In case of the exterior algebra, ∧•V, lack of such geometric picture results by now in absence of general structure theorems for the algebra of skew-invariants (∧•V)g . One may find...

This paper concentrates on the propagation of waves in a layer of binary mixture of elastic solids subjected to stress free boundaries. Secular equations for the layer corresponding to symmetric and antisymmetric wave modes are derived in completely separate terms. The amplitudes of displacement components and specific loss for both symmetric and antisymmetric modes are obtained. The effect of ...

We study Muirhead-type generalizations of families of inequalities due to Newton, Maclaurin and others. Each family is defined in terms of a commonly used basis of the ring of symmetric functions in n variables. Inequalities corresponding to elementary symmetric functions and power sum symmetric functions are characterized by the same simple poset which generalizes the majorization order. Some ...

An association scheme is amorphous if it has as many fusion schemes as possible. Symmetric amorphous schemes were classified by A. V. Ivanov [A. V. Ivanov, Amorphous cellular rings II, in Investigations in algebraic theory of combinatorial objects, pages 39–49. VNIISI, Moscow, Institute for System Studies, 1985] and commutative amorphous schemes were classified by T. Ito, A. Munemasa and M. Yam...

In this paper, we investigate the existence of a positive solution of fully fuzzy linear equation systems. This paper mainly to discuss a new decomposition of a nonsingular fuzzy matrix, the symmetric times triangular (ST) decomposition. By this decomposition, every nonsingular fuzzy matrix can be represented as a product of a fuzzy symmetric matrix S and a fuzzy triangular matrix T.

In this paper, we establish weak and strong duality theorems for a pair of multiobjective symmetric dual problems. This removes several omissions in the paper "Symmetric and self duality in vector optimization problem, Applied Mathematics and Computation 183 (2006) 1121-1126".

The fast evolution of processor performance necessitates a permanent evolution of all the multi-processor components, even for small to medium-scale symmetric multiprocessors (SMP) build around shared busses. This kind of multiprocessor is especially attractive because the problem of data coherency in caches can be solved by a class of snooping protocols specific to these shared-bus architectur...

The object of this paper is to study $(epsilon)$-Lorentzian para-Sasakian manifolds. Some typical identities for the curvature tensor and the Ricci tensor of $(epsilon)$-Lorentzian para-Sasakian manifold are investigated. Further, we study globally $phi$-Ricci symmetric and weakly $phi$-Ricci symmetric $(epsilon)$-Lorentzian para-Sasakian manifolds and obtain interesting results.
