THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE LORENZ CURVE AND ESTIMATION OF INDICATORS OF DIFFERENTIATION OF MONETARY INCOMES OF POPULATION BASED ON EXPONENTIAL DISTRIBUTION by V. Lebedev, K. Lebedev

“…It is shown that all these coeficients depend on the ratio of two parameters: the minimum and the average per capita monetary incomes of the population. For a quantitative estimation of the parameters of the distribution function numerical methods of solving the problem of minimization of different criteria of the proximity of theoretical curve and statistical data were used.…”

THEORETICAL PRINCIPLES FOR PROVISION OF OPTIMUM ELECTRIC POWER LOSS RATES IN POWER SYSTEM NETWORKS by M. I. Fursanov

“…The paper shows how it is possible to determine direction (motion path) of optimum power state on the basis of analysis of power transmission cost dependences in the function of relative load losses in the network. Quantitative criteria making possible to move purposefully in the zone of economically justified loss rates are proposed in the paper. …”

Spinless Particles in Exponentially Varying Electric and Magnetic Fields by Kenan Sogut, Ali Havare

“…By selecting the external fields oriented parallel and orthogonal to each other, exact solutions of the motion are obtained for the nonrelativistic and the relativistic cases. The quantized energy spectrum is determined by using the solutions obtained for the motion of the particles and dependence of the energy on the strengths of the electric and magnetic fields is discussed. …”
