We investigate the existence of solutions u(x, t) for perturbations of the elliptic system with Dirichlet boundary condition $$\array {L{\xi}+{\mu}g({\xi}+2{\eta})=f\;in\;{\Omega}}\\{L{\eta}+{\nu}g({\xi}+2{\eta})=f\;in\;{\Omega}}$$ (0.1) where $g(u)=Bu^+-Au^-$, $u^+=max\{u,\;0\}$, $u^-=max\{-u,\;0\}$, ${\mu}$, ${\nu}$ are nonzero constants and the nonlinearity $({\mu}+2{\nu})g(u)$ crosses the eigenvalues of the elliptic operator L.

In this paper, we are concerned with the nonlinear elliptic equations of the p(x)-Laplace type $$\{\begin{array}{lll}-div(a(x,{\nabla}u))+{\mid}u{\mid}^{p(x)-2}u={\lambda}f(x,u) && in\;{\Omega}\\(a(x,{\nabla}u)\frac{{\partial}u}{{\partial}n}={\lambda}{\theta}g(x,u) && on\;{\partial}{\Omega},\end{array}$$ which is subject to nonlinear Neumann boundary condition. Here the function a(x, v) is of type${\mid}v{\mid}^{p(x)-2}v$ with continuous function $p:{\bar{\Omega}}{\rightarrow}(1,{\infty})$ and the functions f, g satisfy a $Carath{\acute{e}}odory$ condition. The main purpose of this paper is to establish the existence of at least three solutions for the above problem by applying three critical points theory due to Ricceri. Furthermore, we localize three critical points interval for the given problem as applications of the theorem introduced by Arcoya and Carmona.

This paper is concerned with the impulsive control problem $$ \dot{x}(t) = f(t, x) + g(t, x)\dot{u}(t), t \in [0, T], x(0) = \overline{x}, $$ where u is a possibly discontinuous control function of bounded variation, $f : R \times R^n \mapsto R^n$ is a bounded and Lipschitz continuous function, and $g : R \times R^n \mapsto R^n$ is continuously differentiable w.r.t. the variable x and satisfies $\mid$g(t,\cdot) - g(s,\cdot)$\mid$ \leq \phi(t) - \phi(s)$, for some increasing function $\phi$ and every s < t. We show that the map $u \mapsto x_u$ is Lipschitz continuous when u ranges in the set of step functions whose total variations are uniformly bounded, where $x_u$ is the solution of the impulsive control system corresponding to u. We also define the generalized solution of the impulsive control system corresponding to a measurable control functin of bounded variation.

This paper is concerned with the following fourth-order elliptic equations $${\Delta}^2u-{\Delta}u+V(x)u-{\frac{k}{2}}{\Delta}(u^2)u=f(x,u),\text{ in }{\mathbb{R}}^N$$, where $N{\leq}6$, ${\kappa}{\geq}0$. Under some appropriate assumptions on V(x) and f(x, u), we prove the existence of infinitely many negative-energy solutions for the above system via the genus properties in critical point theory. Some recent results from the literature are extended.

In this paper, the singular three-point boundary value problem $$\{{{u"(t)\;+\;f(t,\;u)\;=\;0,\;t\;{\in}\;(0,\;1),}\atop{u(0)\;=\;0,\;u(1)\;=\;{\alpha}u(\eta),}}\$$ is studied, where 0 < $\eta$ < 1, $\alpha$ > 0, f(t,u) may be singular at u = 0. By mixed monotone method, the existence and uniqueness are established for the above singular three-point boundary value problems. The theorems obtained are very general and complement previous know results.

We present characterizations of the Pareto distribution by the independent property of upper record values in such a way that F(x) has a Pareto distribution if and only if $\frac{X_{U(n)}}{X_{U(m)}}$ and $X_{U(m)}$ are independent for $1{\leq}m. Futhermore, the characterizations should find that F(x) has a Pareto distribution if and only if $\frac{X_{U(n)}}{X_{U(n)}{\pm}X_{U(m)}}$ and $X_{U(m)}$ are independent for $1{\leq}m.

In this paper, we utilize the Nevanlinna theory and uniqueness theory of meromorphic function to investigate the differential-difference analogue of $Br{\ddot{u}}ck$ conjecture. In other words, we consider ${\Delta}_{\eta}f(z)=f(z+{\eta})-f(z)$ and f'(z) share one value or one small function, and then obtain the precise expression of transcendental entire function f(z) under certain conditions, where ${\eta}{\in}{\mathbb{C}}{\backslash}\{0\}$ is a constant such that $f(z+{\eta})-f(z){\not\equiv}0$.

Let $C_d$ be the rational curve of degree d in $P_k ^3$ given parametrically by $x_0 = u^d, X_1 = u^{d - 1}t, X_2 = ut^{d - 1}, X_3 = t^d (d \geq 4)$. Then the defining ideal of $C_d$ can be minimally generated by d polynomials $F_1, F_2, \ldots, F_d$ such that $degF_1 = 2, degF_2 = \cdots = degF_d = d - 1$ and $C_d$ is a set-theoretically complete intersection on $F_2 = X_1^{d-1} - X_2X_0^{d-2}$ for every field k of characteristic p > 0. For the proofs we will use the notion of Grobner basis.

Let R be a commutative ring with identity. Then we prove $M_n(R)=GL_n(R)$ ${\cup}${$A{\in}M_n(R)\;{\mid}\;detA{\neq}0$ and det $A{\neq}U(R)$}${\cup}Z(M-n(R))$ where U(R) denotes the set of all units of R. In particular, it will be proved that the full matrix ring $M_n(F)$ over a field F is the disjoint union of the general linear group $GL_n(F)$ of degree n over the field F and the set $Z(M_n(F))$ of all zero-divisors of $M_n(F)$. Using the result and universal mapping property we prove that $M_n(F)$ is its total ring of fractions.

This study aims to describe the vowel system of present-day American English and to discuss some of its phonetic variations due to regional differences. Fifteen speakers of American English from various regions of the United States produced the monophthongs of English. The vowel duration and the frequencies of the first and the second formant were measured. The results indicate that the distinction between the vowels [c] and [a] has been merged in most parts of the U.S. except in some speakers from eastern and southeastern parts of the U.S., resulting in the general loss of phonemic distinction between the vowels. The phonemic merger of the two vowels can be interpreted as the result of the relatively small functional load of the [c]-[a] contrast, and the smaller back vowel space in comparison to the front vowel space. The study also shows that the F2 frequencies of the high back vowel [u] were extremely high in most of the speakers from the eastern region of the U.S., resulting in the overall reduction of their acoustic space for high vowels. From the viewpoint of the Adaptive Dispersion Theory proposed by Liljencrants & Lindblom (1972) and Lindblom (1986), the high back vowel [u] appeared to have been fronted in order to satisfy the economy of articulatory gesture to some extent without blurring any contrast between [i] and [u] in the high vowel region.
