In this paper, we initiate the study of boundary value problems involving Hilfer fractional derivatives. Several new existence and uniqueness results are obtained by using a variety of fixed point theorems. Examples illustrating our results are also presented.

In this note we show that there is an anti-symplectic involution $\sigma\;:\;X\;\to\;X$ on a simply-connected, closed, non-Kahler and symplectic 4-manifold X with a disjoint union of Riemann surfaces ${\amalg}^n_{i=1}{\Sigma}_i,\;n\;{\ge}\;2$ as a fixed point set. Also we show that its quotient X/$\sigma$ is homeomorphic to $\mathbb{CP}^2{\sharp}r\mathbb{CP}^2$ but not diffeomorphic to $\mathbb{CP}^2{\sharp}r\mathbb{CP}^2,\;r\;=\;b_2^-(X/{\sigma})$.

The Gamma function ${\Gamma}$ which was first introduced b Euler in 1730 has played a very important role in many branches of mathematics, especially, in the theory of special functions, and has been introduced in most of calculus textbooks. In this note, our major aim is to explain the convergence of the Euler's Gamma function expressed as an improper integral by using some elementary properties and a fundamental axiom holding on the set of real numbers $\mathbb{R}$, in a detailed and instructive manner. A brief history and origin of the Gamma function is also considered.

In this paper, the moments of the Riesz-N$\acute{a}$gy-Tak$\acute{a}$cs(RNT) distribution over a general interval [a, b] $\subset$ [0, 1], are found through the moments of the RNT distribution over the unit interval, [0, 1]. This is done using some special features of the distribution and the fact that [0, 1] is a self-similar set in a dynamical system generated by the RNT distribution. The results are important for the study of the orthogonal polynomials with respect to the RNT distribution over a general interval.

In this paper, our main concern is the historical development of the Finsler geometry in Debrecen, Hungary initiated by L. Berwald. First we look into the research trend in Berwald's days affected by the $G{\ddot{o}}ttingen$ mathematicians from C. Gauss and downward. Then we study how he was motivated to concentrate on the then completely new research area, Finsler geometry. Finally we examine the course of establishing Hungarian Debrecen school of Finsler geometry via the scholars including O. Varga, A. $Rapcs{\acute{a}}k$, L. $Tam{\acute{a}}ssy$ all deeply affected by Berwald after his settlement in Debrecen, Hungary.

The one-sided fattenings (called semi-ribbon graph in this paper) of the graph embedded in the real projective plane ℝℙ² are completely classified up to topological equivalence. A planar graph (i.e., embedded in the plane), admitting the one-sided fattening, is known to be a cactus boundary. For the graphs embedded in ℝℙ² admitting the one-sided fattening, unlike the planar graphs, a new building block appears: a bracelet along the Möbius band, which is not a connected summand of the oriented surfaces.

Our aim is to establish certain image formulas of the (p, q)-extended modified Bessel function of the second kind M_ν,p,q(z) by employing the Marichev-Saigo-Maeda fractional calculus (integral and differential) operators including their composition formulas and using certain integral transforms involving (p, q)-extended modified Bessel function of the second kind M_ν,p,q(z). Corresponding assertions for the Saigo's, Riemann-Liouville (R-L) and Erdélyi-Kober (E-K) fractional integral and differential operators are deduced. All the results are represented in terms of the Hadamard product of the (p, q)-extended modified Bessel function of the second kind M_ν,p,q(z) and Fox-Wright function _rΨ_s(z).

This study focuses on the development of numerical procedure to analyze the nonlinear combustion instabilities in liquid rocket engine. Nonlinear behaviors of acoustic instabilities are characterized by the existence of limit cycle in linearly unstable engines and nonlinear or triggering instability in linearly stable engines. To discretize convective fluxes with high accuracy and robustness, approximated Riemann solver based on characteristics and Euler-characteristic boundary conditions are employed. The present procedure predicts well the transition processes from initial harmonic pressure disturbance to N-like steep-fronted shock wave in a resonant pipe. Longitudinal pressure oscillations within the SSME(Space Shuttle Main Engine) engine have been analyzed using the pressure-sensitive time lag model to account for unsteady combustion response. It is observed that the pressure oscillations reach a limit cycle which is independent of the characteristics of the initial disturbances and depends only on combustion parameters and operating conditions.
