A charaterization of closed maps using the whyburn construction by Yvonne O. Stallings

“…In this paper we modify the Whyburn construction for a continuous function f:X→Y. If the range is first countable, we get a characterization of closed maps; namely, the constructions are the same if and only if the map is closed.…”

Modeling and Simulation of Polarization in Internet Group Opinions Based on Cellular Automata by Yaofeng Zhang, Renbin Xiao

“…Simulation results show the following: (1) It is easy to form the polarization for both continuous opinions and discrete opinions when we only consider neighbors influence, and continuous opinions are more effective in speeding the polarization of group. (2) Coevolution mechanism takes more time to make the system stable, and the global coupling mechanism leads the system to consensus. (3) Opinion leaders play an important role in the development of consensus in Internet group opinions. …”

Development of the Nonstationary Incremental Analysis Update Algorithm for Sequential Data Assimilation System by Yoo-Geun Ham, Hyo-Jong Song, Jaehee Jung, Gyu-Ho Lim

“…This study introduces a modified version of the incremental analysis updates (IAU), called the nonstationary IAU (NIAU) method, to improve the assimilation accuracy of the IAU while keeping the continuity of the analysis. Similar to the IAU, the NIAU is designed to add analysis increments at every model time step to improve the continuity in the intermittent data assimilation. …”

Positive Solutions for Class of State Dependent Boundary Value Problems with Fractional Order Differential Operators by Dongyuan Liu, Zigen Ouyang, Huilan Wang

“…We consider the following state dependent boundary-value problem D0+αy(t)-pD0+βg(t,y(σ(t)))+f(t,y(τ(t)))=0, 0<t<1; y(0)=0, ηy(σ(1))=y(1), where Dα is the standard Riemann-Liouville fractional derivative of order 1<α<2, 0<η<1, p≤0, 0<β<1, β+1-α≥0 the function g is defined as g(t,u):[0,1]×[0,∞)→[0,∞), and g(0,0)=0 the function f is defined as f(t,u):[0,1]×[0,∞)→[0,∞)σ(t), τ(t) are continuous on t and 0≤σ(t), τ(t)≤t. Using Banach contraction mapping principle and Leray-Schauder continuation principle, we obtain some sufficient conditions for the existence and uniqueness of the positive solutions for the above fractional order differential equations, which extend some references.…”
