Let ${\mathcal{H}}$ be an infinite dimensional complex Hilbert space, and let $B({\mathcal{H}})$ be the algebra of all bounded linear operators on ${\mathcal{H}}$. Recall that an operator $T{\in}B({\mathcal{H})$ has property B(n) if ${\mid}T^n{\mid}{\geq}{\mid}T{\mid}^n$, $n{\geq}2$, which generalizes the class A-operator. We characterize the property B(n) of weighted shifts $S_{\lambda}$ over (${\eta},\;{\kappa}$)-type directed trees which appeared in the study of subnormality of weighted shifts over directed trees recently. In addition, we discuss the property B(n) of weighted shifts $S_{\lambda}$ over (2, 1)-type directed trees with nonzero weights are being distinct with respect to $n{\geq}2$. And we give some properties of weighted shifts $S_{\lambda}$ over (2, 1)-type directed trees with property B(2).

Let $\mathcal{B}(H)$ and $\mathcal{B}(K)$ denote the algebras of all bounded linear operators on Hilbert spaces $\mathcal{H}$ and $\mathcal{K}$, respectively. We show that if ${\phi}:\mathcal{B}(H){\rightarrow}\mathcal{B}(K)$ is an additive mapping satisfying ${\phi}({\mid}A{\mid}^2)={\mid}{\phi}(A){\mid}^2$ for every $A{\in}\mathcal{B}(H)$, then there exists a mapping ${\psi}$ defined by ${\psi}(A)={\phi}(I){\phi}(A)$, ${\forall}A{\in}\mathcal{B}(H)$ such that ${\psi}$ is the sum of $two^*$-homomorphisms one of which C-linear and the othere C-antilinear. We will also study some conditions implying the injective and rank-preserving of ${\psi}$.

Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a factor von Neumann algebra with dimension greater than 1. We prove that if a linear map ${\delta}:\mathcal{A}{\rightarrow}\mathcal{A}$ satisfies $${\delta}([[a,b],c])=[[{\delta}(a),b],c]+[[a,{\delta}(b),c]+[[a,b],{\delta}(c)]$$ for any $a,b,c{\in}\mathcal{A}$ with ab = 0 (resp. ab = P, where P is a fixed nontrivial projection of $\mathcal{A}$), then there exist an operator $T{\in}\mathcal{A}$ and a linear map $f:\mathcal{A}{\rightarrow}\mathbb{C}I$ vanishing at every second commutator [[a, b], c] with ab = 0 (resp. ab = P) such that ${\delta}(a)=aT-Ta+f(a)$ for any $a{\in}\mathcal{A}$.

The purpose of this study is to understand students' thinking process in the algebra problem solving, on the base of the works of Vinner(1997a, 1997b). Thus, two middle school students were evaluated in this case study to examine how they think to solve algebra word problems. The following question was considered to analyze the thinking process from the similarity-based perspective by focusing on the process of solving algebra word problems; What is the relationship between similarity and the characteristics of thinking process at the time of successful and unsuccessful problem solving? The following results were obtained by analyzing the success or failure in problem solving based on the characteristics of thinking process and similarity composition. Successful problem solving can be based on pseudo-analytical thought and analytical thought. The former is the rule applied in the process of applying closed formulas that is constructed structural similarity not related with the situations described in the text. The latter means that control and correction occurred in all stages of problem solution. The knowledge needed for solutions was applied with the formulation of open-end formulas that is constructed structural similarity in which memory and modification with the related principles or concepts. In conclusion, the student's perception on the principles involved in a solution is very important in solving algebraic word problems.

Let ${\mathcal{A}}$ and ${\mathcal{B}}$ be two operator ${\ast}$-rings such that ${\mathcal{A}}$ is prime. In this paper, we show that if the map ${\Phi}:{\mathcal{A}}{\rightarrow}{\mathcal{B}}$ is bijective and preserves Jordan or ${\ast}$-Jordan triple product, then it is additive. Moreover, if ${\Phi}$ preserves Jordan triple product, we prove the multiplicativity or anti-multiplicativity of ${\Phi}$. Finally, we show that if ${\mathcal{A}}$ and ${\mathcal{B}}$ are two prime operator ${\ast}$-algebras, ${\Psi}:{\mathcal{A}}{\rightarrow}{\mathcal{B}}$ is bijective and preserves ${\ast}$-Jordan triple product, then ${\Psi}$ is a ${\mathbb{C}}$-linear or conjugate ${\mathbb{C}}$-linear ${\ast}$-isomorphism.

A block of an orthomodular lattice L is a maximal Boolean subalgebra of L. A site is a subalgebra of an orthomodular lattice L of the form S = A $\cap$ B, where A and B are distinct blocks of L. An orthomodular lattice L is called with finite sites if |A $\cap$ B| < $\infty$ for all distinct blocks A, B of L. We prove that there exists a weakly path-connected orthomodular lattice with finite sites which is not path-connected and if L is an orthomodular lattice such that the height of the join-semilattice [ComL]$\vee$ generated by the commutators of L is finite, then L is pathconnected.

Since western mathematics and astronomy had been introduced in Chosun dynasty in the 17th century, most of Chosun mathematicians studied Shu li jing yun(數理精蘊) for the western mathematics. In the last two decades of the 19th century, Chosun scholars have studied them which were introduced by Japanese text books and western missionaries. The former dealt mostly with elementary arithmetic and the latter established schools and taught mathematics. Lee Sang Seol(1870~1917) is well known in Korea as a Confucian scholar, government official, educator and foremost Korean independence movement activist in the 20th century. He was very eager to acquire western civilizations and studied them with the minister H. B. Hulbert(1863~1949). He wrote a mathematics book Su Ri(數理, 1898-1899) which has two parts. The first one deals with the linear part(線部) and geometry in Shu li jing yun and the second part with algebra. Using Su Ri, we investigate the process of transmission of western mathematics into Chosun in the century and show that Lee Sang Seol built a firm foundation for the study of algebra in Chosun.

Given the growing agreement that algebra should be taught in the early stage of the curriculum, considerable studies have been conducted with regard to early algebra in the elementary school. However, there has been lack of research on how to organize mathematic lessons to develop of algebraic reasoning ability of the elementary school students. This research attempted to gain specific and practical information on effective algebraic teaching and learning in the elementary school. An exploratory qualitative case study was conducted to the fourth graders. This paper focused on the associative law of the multiplication. This paper showed what kinds of activities a teacher may organize following three steps: (a) focus on the properties of numbers and operations in specific situations, (b) discovery of the properties of numbers and operations with many examples, and (c) generalization of the properties of numbers and operations in arbitrary situations. Given the steps, this paper included an analysis on how the students developed their algebraic reasoning. This study provides implications on the important factors that lead to the development of algebraic reasoning ability for elementary students.

In this paper, we de ne an $L_p$ analytic generalized Fourier Feynman transform and a convolution product of functionals in a Ba-nach algebra $\cal{F}$($C_{a,b}$[0, T]) which is called the Fresnel type class, and in more general class $\cal{F}_{A_1;A_2}$ of functionals de ned on general functio space $C_{a,b}$[0, T] rather than on classical Wiener space. Also we obtain some relationships between the $L_p$ analytic generalized Fourier-Feynman transform and convolution product for functionals in $\cal{F}$($C_{a,b}$[0, T]) and in $\cal{F}_{A_1,A_2}$.

An element in a ring R with identity is called invo-clean if it is the sum of an idempotent and an involution and R is called invoclean if every element of R is invo-clean. Let C(R) be the center of a ring R and g(x) be a fixed polynomial in C(R)[x]. We introduce the new notion of g(x)-invo clean. R is called g(x)-invo if every element in R is a sum of an involution and a root of g(x). In this paper, we investigate many properties and examples of g(x)-invo clean rings. Moreover, we characterize invo-clean as g(x)-invo clean rings where g(x) = (x-a)(x-b), a, b ∈ C(R) and b - a ∈ Inv(R). Finally, some classes of g(x)-invo clean rings are discussed.
