One of the most used convergences for sequencesC of sets is Pompeiu-Hausdorff convergence. Sometimes is difficult to verify the properties of this convergence, so we find some conditions on sequences or nets (like monotonicity, boundedness or compactness) which assure the coincidence of Pompeiu- Hausdorff convergence with other well-known hyperconvergences: Kuratowski, Wijsman and Mosco convergences. Properties of nonlocal reaction-diffusion equations from population dynamics Narcisa Apreutesei Department of Mathematics and Informatics, ”Gheorghe Asachi” Technical University of Iasi, Romania e-mail: [email protected] Some models of integro-differential equations from population dynamics are presented and analyzed. The integral term describes the nonlocal consumption of resources. We are interested mainly in the bistable case. For some models, Fredholm property of the linearized operators is combined with the implicit function theorem to prove the existence of waves. This is available only for the case of small support of the integral, when the integro-differential operators are close to the differential operators. For some other models, Leray-Schauder method can be applied. This implies the construction of a topological degree for the corresponding operators and the establishment of a priori estimates of the solution. Multilevel methods for variational and quasi-variational inequalities Lori Badea ”Simion Stoilov” Institute of Mathematics of Romanian Academy, Bucharest, Romania e-mail: [email protected] This talk is an overview of some results concerning the global convergence rate of the standard multigrid method for the variational inequalities and variational inequalities conatining a term introduced by a contraction operator. Also, we estimate the convergence rate of the one- and two- level methods for variational inequalities of the second kind and of the quasi-variational inequalities. The methods are introduced as subspace correction algorithms in a reflexive Banach space, where general convergence results are derived. These algorithms become multilevel and multigrid methods by introducing the finite element spaces. In this case, the error estimates are written in function of the number of subdomains and the overlapping parameter for the one- and two-level methods, and in function of the number of levels for the multigrid methods. For the one- and two-level methods, we comparatively illustrate the convergence rates of by numerical experiments. Also, the obtained convergence rates for the multigrid methods are compared with those existing in the literature for the complementarity problems. CAIM 2014, Bac˘au, September 18-21, 2014 7 About extensions with p-remainders Laurent¸iu I.Calmut¸chi Tiraspol State University, Republic of Moldova e-mail: [email protected] We use the terminology from [5]. Any space is considered to be a non-empty completely regular T1-space. If X is a dense subspace of a space Y , then Y is called an extension of X and the subspace Y X is called remainder of X. Denote by βX the Stone-Cechˇ compactification of the space X. Let\ X∗ = βX X. Fix a space\X. Let Y and Z be two extensions of the space X. We consider that Y Z if there exists a continuous mapping f : Z Y such that f(x)= x for any x X. If f is a homeomorphism≤ of Z onto Y , then we say that the→ extensions Y and Z are equivalent.∈ We identify the equivalent extensions. Any non-empty family of extensions of the space X is a partially ordered set and briefly is called a poset. E A space X is a paracompact p-space if there exist a metrizable space Y and a perfect mapping g : X Y of X onto Y [2]. Let−→X be a space and d a pseudumetric on X. For each x X and each real number rr > 0 put K(x) = y X : d(x,y) = 0 and V (x,d,r) = y X ∈: d(x,y) < r . There exist a set X/d, a metric{ d¯ ∈on X/d and a mapping} π : X/d such{ ∈ that d(x,y) = d¯(π} (x), π (y)) for each d −→ d d x,y X. The pseudometric d is called a k-metric if the mapping πd is perfect. If the mapping πd is continuous,∈ then the pseudometric d is called a continuous pseudometric on X. Any pseudometric is considered to be continuous. A pseudometric d is called a complete k-metric if d is a k-metric and(X/d, d¯) is a complete metric space. On a space there exists a complete k-metric if and only if it is a paracompact Cech-completeˇ -space. An extension Y of a space X is called a (complete) p-extension if on Y there exists a (complete) k-metric d such that πd(X) πd(Y X)= . Proposition 1. Let Y be∩ a p-extension\ ∅ of a space X. Then X, Y and Y X are paracompact p-spaces. \ Theorem 2. For a space X the following assertions are equivalent: 1. X is a Lindel¨of p-space. 2. For X there exists a p-extension Y which is a Lindel¨of p-space. 3. Any p-extension Y of X is a Lindel¨of p-space. 4. There exists a compactification bX of X such that bX X is a paracompact p-space. 5. For any compactification bX of X the remainder bX \X is a Lindel¨of p-space. 6. On X there exists some totally bounded k-metric. \ Theorem 3. If d is a k-metric on a space X then there exist a complete p-extension Y of X and a complete k-metric ρ on Y such that d(x,y)= ρ(x,y) for each ρx,y X and πρ(X) πρ(Y X)= . In this case we say that ρ is a completion of the k-metric d. ∈ ∩ \ ∅ We mention that a completion ρ of a k-metric d, in general, is not unique. Let Ec(X,d) is the family of all complete p-extension (Y, ρ) of X, where ρ is a completion of the k-metric d. Obviously that Ecp(X,d) is a poset. Theorem 4. If d is a k-metric on a space X, then Ecp(X,d) is a complete upper-lattice with a maximal element (mX,dm) and X mX βX, where βX is the Stone-Cechˇ compactification of X.

  • And CURRENT TRENDS in COMPUTING RSCTC'9b
    ROUGH SETS and CURRENT TRENDS in COMPUTING RSCTC'9B Ist1st International Conference June 22-26 Warsaw Poland Professor Edward A. Feigenbaum 7 Stanford University Stanford CA 94305 USA Dear Professor Feigenbaum, on behalf of the organizers, including Professors Pawlak and Skowron, I have the privilege to express our thanks for Your accepting our invitation to act as a Honoraryco-Chair of our Conference. Enclosed please find a copy of the First Call for Papers. With our deepest regards, Sincerely Yours, Lech Polkowski Chair, Organizing Committee - * Rough Set Theory, proposed first by Zdzislaw Pawlak in the early 80's, has recently reached a maturity stage. In recent years we have witnessed a rapid growth of interest in rough set theory and its applications, worldwide. Various real life applications ofrough sets have shown their usefulness in many domains. It is felt useful to sum up the present state ofrough set theory and its applications, outline new areas of development and, last but not least, to work out further relationships with such areas as soft computing, knowledge discovery and data mining, intelligent information systems, synthesis and analysis of complex objects and non-conventional models of computation. Motivated by this, we plan to organize the Conference in Poland, where rough set theory was initiated and originally developed. An important aimof the Conference is to bring together eminent experts from diverse fields of expertise in order to facilitate mutual understanding and cooperation and to help in cooperative work aimed at new hybrid paradigms possibly better suited to various aspects of analysis ofreal life phenomena. We are pleased to announce that the following experts have agreedto serve in the Committees of our Conference.

  • The Perspectives of Scientific Research Seen by Grigore C
    THE PERSPECTIVES OF SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH SEEN BY GRIGORE C. MOISIL FORTY YEARS AGO EUFROSINA OTLĂCAN* Motto: “There are people whose contribution to the progress of mankind is so great that their biography is put into the shade, the life is hidden away by the work”. (Gr. C. Moisil at the W. Sierpinski’s death) Abstract. The creation, the personality and the entire activity of the Romanian mathematician Grigore C. Moisil (1906–1973) are illustrative of the idea of universality in science and cultural integration. Moisil obtained his degree in mathematics at the University of Bucharest and became a PhD in 1929, with the thesis “The analytic mechanics of continuous systems.” The three years of courses at the polytechnic school did not finalize with an engineer diploma, they only meant an opening towards the understanding of technical problems. The scientific area of Moisil’s work covered, among other domains, the functional analysis applied to the mechanics of continuous media, to differential geometry or to the study of second order equations with partial derivatives. One of the most original parts of Moisil’s creation is his work in mathematical logic. Within this frame Moisil developed his algebraic theory of switching circuits. By his theory of “shaded reasoning”, G. C. Moisil is considered, besides L. Zadeh, one of the creators of the fuzzy mathematics. Apart from his scientific and teaching activities, Moisil was a highly concerned journalist, present in many newspapers and on television broadcasts. Keywords: Grigore C. Moisil, mathematical creation, mathematical analysis, mathematical logic, differential geometry, physics, mechanics. 1.

  • Turing and Von Neumann's Brains and Their Computers
    Turing and von Neumann’s Brains and their Computers Dedicated to Alan Turing’s 100th birthday and John von Neumann’s 110th birthday Sorin Istrail* and Solomon Marcus** In this paper we discuss the lives and works of Alan Turing and John von Neumann that intertwined and inspired each other, focusing on their work on the Brain. Our aim is to comment and to situate historically and conceptually an unfinished research program of John von Neumann, namely, towards the unification of discrete and continuous mathematics via a concept of thermodynamic error; he wanted a new information and computation theory for biological systems, especially the brain. Turing’s work contains parallels to this program as well. We try to take into account the level of knowledge at the time these works were conceived while also taking into account developments after von Neumann’s death. Our paper is a call for the continuation of von Neumann’s research program, to metaphorically put meat, or more decisively, muscle, on the skeleton of biological systems theory of today. In the historical context, an evolutionary trajectory of theories from LeiBniz, Boole, Bohr and Turing to Shannon, McCullogh-Pitts, Wiener and von Neumann powered the emergence of the new Information Paradigm. As Both Turing and von Neumann were interested in automata, and with their herculean zest for the hardest proBlems there are, they were mesmerized by one in particular: the brain. Von Neumann confessed: “In trying to understand the function of the automata and the general principles governing them, we selected for prompt action the most complicated oBject under the sun – literally.” Turing’s research was done in the context of the important achievements in logic: formalism, logicism, intuitionism, constructivism, Hilbert’s formal systems, S.C.

  • Relations Between Modern Mathematics and Poetry: Czesław Miłosz; Zbigniew Herbert; Ion Barbu/Dan Barbilian
    Relations between Modern Mathematics and Poetry: Czesław Miłosz; Zbigniew Herbert; Ion Barbu/Dan Barbilian by Loveday Jane Anastasia Kempthorne A thesis submitted to Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Victoria University of Wellington 2015 Abstract This doctoral thesis is an examination of the relationship between poetry and mathematics, centred on three twentieth-century case studies: the Polish poets Czesław Miłosz (1911-2004) and Zbigniew Herbert (1924-1998), and the Romanian mathematician and poet Dan Barbilian/Ion Barbu (1895-1961). Part One of the thesis is a review of current scholarly literature, divided into two chapters. The first chapter looks at the nature of mathematics, outlining its historical developments and describing some major mathematical concepts as they pertain to the later case studies. This entails a focus on non-Euclidean geometries, modern algebra, and the foundations of mathematics in Europe; the nature of mathematical truth and language; and the modern historical evolution of mathematical schools in Poland and Romania. The second chapter examines some existing attempts to bring together mathematics and poetry, drawing on literature and science as an academic field; the role of the imagination and invention in the languages of both poetics and mathematics; the interest in mathematics among certain Symbolist poets, notably Mallarmé; and the experimental work of the French groups of mathematicians and mathematician-poets, Bourbaki and Oulipo. The role of metaphor is examined in particular. Part Two of the thesis is the case studies. The first presents the ethical and moral stance of Czesław Miłosz, investigating his attitudes towards classical and later relativistic science, in the light of the Nazi occupation and the Marxist regimes in Poland, and how these are reflected in his poetry.
