In a general variance component model, nonnegative quadratic estimators of the components of variance are considered which are invariant with respect to mean value translaion and have minimum bias (analogously to estimation theory of mean value parameters). Here the minimum is taken over an appropriate cone of positive semidefinite matrices, after having made a reduction by invariance. Among these estimators, which always exist the one of minimum norm is characterized. This characterization is achieved by systems of necessary and sufficient condition, and by a cone restricted pseudoinverse. In models where the decomposing covariance matrices span a commutative quadratic subspace, a representation of the considered estimator is derived that requires merely to solve an ordinary convex quadratic optimization problem. As an example, we present the two way nested classification random model. An unbiased estimator is derived for the mean squared error of any unbiased or biased estimator that is expressible as a linear combination of independent sums of squares. Further, it is shown that, for the classical balanced variance component models, this estimator is the best invariant unbiased estimator, for the variance of the ANOVA estimator and for the mean squared error of the nonnegative minimum biased estimator. As an example, the balanced two way nested classification model with ramdom effects if considered.

The Clausen function $Cl_2$(x) arises in several applications. A large number of indefinite integrals of logarithmic or trigonometric functions can be expressed in closed form in terms of $Cl_2$(x). Very recently, Choi and Srivatava [3] and Choi [1] investigated certain integral formulas associated with $Cl_2$(x). In this sequel, we present an interesting new definite integral formula for the Clausen function $Cl_2$(x) by using a known relationship between the Clausen function $Cl_2$(x) and the generalized Zeta function ${\zeta}$(s, a). Also an interesting integral representation for the Catalan constant G is considered as one of two special cases of our main result.

수세기는 초등 수학교육의 기초로서 보통 유치원 과정 이전부터 시작된다. 그러나, 서수와 기수의 구별된 사용의 중요성은 미국의 "학교 수학의 교과 과정과 평가 기준" (NCTM 1989)에서 뿐만 아니라 학교 교육의 현장에서도 많이 간과되고 있는 실정이다. 일반적으로 사용되는 수직선 (Number line)과 다르게 구조적으로 개발된 Hasse's structured number line을 사용하여 학생들에게 수세기의 의미와 기술을 가르친다면 구체적 경험을 통해 수학적 사고 능력을 키우고 개발하는데 도움이 된다. 만약 Hasse 의 9가지 수준에 따라 다양한 학습 활동을 개발하여 수업 계획을 세워서 학습을 진행한다면 수업은 역동적이며 매우 흥미로워 질 것이다. 학생들은 말로 나타내기(Verbalization)와 상상(Imagination)의 충분한 경험을 바탕으로 정신적 표현(Mental representation)을 개발하여 수세기 기초를 확립하고 나아가 연산을 쉽게 수행할 수 있을 것이다. 여기에 소개된 교구들과 학습 활동들은 초등 수학 교육이 암기 위주의 문답식이 아니며 얼마나 역동적이고 흥미로울 수 있나를 보여준다.

Representing planar Pythagorean hodograph (PH) curves by the complex roots of their hodographs, we standardize Farouki's double cubic method to become the undetermined junction point (UJP) method, and then prove the generic existence of solutions for general $C^1$ Hermite interpolation problems. We also extend the UJP method to solve $C^2$ Hermite interpolation problems with multiple PH cubics, and also prove the generic existence of solutions which consist of triple PH cubics with $C^1$ junction points. Further generalizing the UJP method, we go on to solve $C^2$ Hermite interpolation problems using two PH quintics with a $C^1$ junction point, and we also show the possibility of applying the modi e UJP method to $G^2[C^1]$ Hermite interpolation.

Teacher noticing has been termed consequential to teaching because what you see and do not see impacts decisions made within the classroom. Further, how a teacher responds to student thinking depends on what a teacher sees in student thinking. Within this study we sought to understand what teachers noticed within an engineering lesson and the decisions made as a result of that noticing. Findings indicate that student teachers and cooperating teachers drew on their pedagogical knowledge for decisions, rather than taking up the integrated content of student thinking and understanding. These findings serve as a guide for the experiences needed to engage in the complex work of teaching or, more specifically, implementing engineering into instruction through a responsive teaching frame.

In the last decades, various integral formulas associated with Bessel functions of different kinds as well as Bessel functions themselves, have been studied and a noteworthy amount of work can be found in the literature. Following up, we present two definite integral formulas involving the product of generalized Bessel function associated with orthogonal polynomials. Also, some intriguing special cases of our main results have been discussed.

We consider the extended generalized Hecke groups ${\bar{H}}_{3,q}$ generated by $X(z)=-(z-1)^{-1}$, $Y(z)=-(z+{\lambda}_q)^{-1}$ with ${\lambda}_q=2\;cos({\frac{\pi}{q}})$ where $q{\geq}3$ an integer. In this work, we study the generalized Pell sequences in ${\bar{H}}_{3,q}$. Also, we show that the entries of the matrix representation of each element in the extended generalized Hecke Group ${\bar{H}}_{3,3}$ can be written by using Pell, Pell-Lucas and modified-Pell numbers.

In this paper, we consider the Gudnason model of 𝒩 = 2 supersymmetric field theory, where the gauge field dynamics is governed by two Chern-Simons terms. Recently, it was shown by Han et al. that for a prescribed configuration of vortex points, there exist at least two distinct solutions for the Gudnason model in a flat two-torus, where a sufficient condition was obtained for the existence. Furthermore, one of these solutions has the asymptotic behavior of topological type. In this paper, we prove that such doubly periodic topological solutions are uniquely determined by the location of their vortex points in a weak-coupling regime.

It is proved that there is a one to one correspondence between representations of C^*-ternary ring M and C^*-algebra 𝒜(M). We discuss primitive and modular ideals of a C^*-ternary ring and prove that a closed ideal I is primitive or modular if and only if so is the ideal 𝒜(I) of 𝒜(M). We also show that a closed ideal in M is primitive if and only if it is the kernel of some irreducible representation of M. Lastly, we obtain approximate identity characterization of strongly quasi-central C^*-ternary ring and the ideal structure of the TRO V ⊗^tmin B for a C^*-algebra B.

In this paper, we consider the weighted Bloch spaces ${\mathcal{B}}_q$(q > 0) on the open unit ball in ${\mathbb{C}}^n$. We prove a certain integral representation theorem that is used to determine the degree of growth of the functions in the space ${\mathcal{B}}_q$ for q > 0. This means that for each q > 0, the Banach dual of $L_a^1$ is ${\mathcal{B}}_q$ and the Banach dual of ${\mathcal{B}}_{q,0}$ is $L_a^1$ for each $q{\geq}1$.
