Certain interesting single (or double) infinite series associated with hypergeometric functions have been expressed in terms of Psi (or Digamma) function ${\psi}(z)$, for example, see Nishimoto and Srivastava [8], Srivastava and Nishimoto [13], Saxena [10], and Chen and Srivastava [5], and so on. In this sequel, with a view to unifying and extending those earlier results, we first establish two relations which some double infinite series involving hypergeometric functions are expressed in a single infinite series involving ${\psi}(z)$. With the help of those series relations we derived, we next present two functional relations which some double infinite series involving $\bar{H}$-functions, which are defined by a generalized Mellin-Barnes type of contour integral, are expressed in a single infinite series involving ${\psi}(z)$. The results obtained here are of general character and only two of their special cases, among numerous ones, are pointed out to reduce to some known results.

In 2018, Andrews introduced the partition functions ${\mathfrak{EO}}$(n) and ${\bar{\mathfrak{EO}}}$(n). The first of these denotes the number of partitions of n in which every even part is less than each odd part, and the second counts the number of partitions enumerated by the first in which only the largest even part appears an odd number of times. In 2021, Pore and Fathima introduced a new partition function ${\mathfrak{EO}}_e$(n) which counts the number of partitions of n which are enumerated by ${\bar{\mathfrak{EO}}}$(n) together with the partitions enumerated by ${\bar{\mathfrak{EO}}}$(n) where all parts are odd and the number of parts is even. They also proved some particular congruences for ${\bar{\mathfrak{EO}}}$(n) and ${\mathfrak{EO}}_e$(n). In this paper, we establish infinitely many families of congruences modulo 2, 4, 5 and 8 for ${\bar{\mathfrak{EO}}}$(n) and modulo 4 for ${\mathfrak{EO}}_e$(n). For example, if p ≥ 5 is a prime with Legendre symbol $({\frac{-3}{p}})=-1$, then for all integers n ≥ 0 and α ≥ 0, we have ${\bar{\mathfrak{EO}}}(8{\cdot}p^{2{\alpha}+1}(pn+j)+{\frac{19{\cdot}p^{2{\alpha}+2}-1}{3}}){\equiv}0$ (mod 8); 1 ≤ j ≤ (p - 1).

Theory and fundamentals of mathematics consist mostly of proposition form. Activities by research of the proposition which leads to determine the true or false, justify the true propositions and refute with counterexample improve logical reasoning skills of students in emphases on mathematics education. Also, utilizing of counterexamples in school mathematics combines mathematical knowledge through the process of finding a counterexample, help the concept study and increase the critical thinking. These effects have been found through previous research. But many studies say that the learners have difficulty in generating counterexamples for false propositions and materials have not been developed a lot for the counterexample utilizing that can be applied in schools. So, this study analyzed the current textbook and examined the use of counterexamples and developed educational materials for counterexamples that can be applied at schools. That materials consisted of making true & false propositions and students was divided into three groups of academic achievement level. And then this study looked at the change of the students' thinking after counterexample classes. As a study result, in all three groups was showed a positive change in the cognitive domain and affective domain. Especially, in top-level group was mainly showed a positive change in the cognitive domain, in upper-middle group was mainly showed in the cognitive and the affective domain, in the sub-group was mainly found a positive change in the affective domain. Also in this study shows that the class that makes true or false propositions in education of utilizing counterexample, made students understand a given proposition, pay attention to easily overlooked condition, carefully observe symbol sign and change thinking of cognitive domain helping concept learning regardless of academic achievement levels of learners. Also, that class gave positive affect to affective domain that increase interest in the proposition and gain confidence about proposition.

Mathematics is one of the subjects in which learners seriously experience under-achievements in school education. Middle school level mathematics especially plays such a role as a bridge between elementary level informal mathematics and high school level formal mathematics that learners' under-achievements in the middle school level mathematics may yield more serious under-achievements later. Therefore it is crucial to prevent learners' later under-achievements that we analyze the status of under achievements including analysing various under-achievers' errors in the middle school level mathematics. From this point of view, we analysed errors of mathematics under-achievers in understanding the concept of the square root of positive numbers and related calculations in this paper. As the results of our research, we found some unexpected errors of 'some mathematics under-achievers regarding the mathematical symbol ${\surd}$ of square root as a parenthesis ( ), and others interpret $x=-2{\pm}{\sqrt{10}}$ as x=-2 or ${\pm}{\sqrt{10}}$.' that suggest the necessity of more various and in-depth discussions and researches of analysis on learners' errors and misconceptions in all areas of school mathematics.

An 8${\times}$8-Gb/s/channel 4-PAM transceiver was designed for high speed memory applications by using 70nm DRAM process with 1.35V supply. An asymmetric 4-PAM signaling scheme is proposed to increase the voltage and time margin of upper and lower eyes in 3-class eye opening. A mathematical basis shows that this scheme statistically reduces 33% of reference noise effect in a receiver. Also, an adaptive pre-emphasis scheme, which utilizes a lone-bit pulse with integrator at the receiver, is introduced to reduce ISI for a simple DRAM channel. In this scheme, an integrating clock timing calibration by using a pre-determined pattern is proposed for the optimum ISI measurement.

The concept of equality is given as a way of reading the equal sign without dealing it explicitly in elementary school mathematics. The meaning of the equal sign can be largely categorized as operational and relational views. However, most elementary school students understand the equal sign as an operational symbol for just writing the required answers. It is essential for them to understand a relational concept of the equal sign because algebraic thinking in middle school mathematics is based on students' understanding of a relational view of the equal sign. Recently, the relational meaning of the equal sign is emphasized in arithmetic. Hence it is necessary for elementary school students to have some activities so that they experience a relational meaning of the equal sign. In this study, we investigate the meaning of the equal sign and contexts of the equal sign in elementary school mathematics to discuss explicit ways to emphasize the concept of equality and relational views of the equal sign.

The aim of this study was to investigate how the small group activity system influences individual to form concepts of prime number and composite number through activity theory on learning process of mathematically gifted 5th-grade students. Student's worksheets, recorded video, and interview were gathered and transcribed for analyzing data. Process of concept formation and using symbol behavior were used to derive the stage of mathematical concept from students, and the activity system and stage of concept formation process were schematized through analysis of whole class activity system and small group activity system based on activity theory. According to the results of this study, two students who were in different activity groups separated into the state of semi-concept and the stage of complex thinking respectively, and therefore, social context and the activity system had effects on process of concept formation among the students.

In this paper, we show that performance can be improved by using multiple antennas in the conventional orthogonal code hopping multiplexing (OCHM) scheme, which was proposed for accommodating a larger number of users with low channel activities than the number of orthogonal codewords used in code division multiple access (CDMA)-based communication systems through downlink statistical multiplexing. First, we introduce two different types of OCHM systems together with orthogonal codeword allocation strategies, and then derive their mathematical expression for log-likelihood ratio (LLR) values according to the two different schemes. Next, when a turbo encoder based on the LLR computation is used, we evaluate performance on the frame error rate (FER) for the aformentioned OCHM system. For comparison, we also show performance for the existing symbol mapping method using multiple antennas, which was used in 3GPP standards. As a result, it is shown that our OCHM system with multiple antennas based on the proposed orthogonal codeword allocation strategy leads to performance gain over the conventional system---energy required to satisfy a target FER is significantly reduced.

In the conventional interchannel interference self-cancellation (ICI-SC) schemes, the length of sampling window is the same as the symbol length of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM). Thus, the number of complex operations to compute the interference coefficient of each subchannel is significantly increased. To solve this problem, we present an approximated mathematical model for the coefficients of ICI-SC schemes. Based on the proposed approximation, we analyze mean squared error (MSE) and computational complexity of the ICI-SC schemes with the length of sampling window. As a result, the presented approximation has an error of less than 0.01% on the MSE compared to the original equation. When the number of subchannels is 1024, the number of complex computations for the interference coefficients is reduced by 98% or more. Since the computational complexity can be remarkably reduced without sacrificing the self-cancellation capability, it is considered that the proposed approximation is very useful to develop an algorithm for the ICI-SC scheme.

A recognizable form having meaning is called a sign in semiotics. The sign is transformed into a physical counter form in this work. Its internal structure is restricted on the linguistic concept structure. We borrow the concept of a mathematical function from the utility function of a rational personal in the economy. Universalizing the utility function by introducing the consistency of independency on the manner of construction, we construct the probability. We introduce a random variable for the probability and join it to a position variable. Thus, we propose a physical sign and its serial changes in the forms of stochastic equations. The equations estimate three patterns (jumping, drifting, diffusing) of possible solutions, and we find them in the one-day stock-price flow. The periods of jumping, drifting and diffusing were about 2, 3.5, and 6 minutes for the Kia stock on 11/05/2014. Also, the semiotic sign (icon, index, symbol) can be expected from the equations.
