FOREWORD

The “4th International Eurasian Conference on Mathematical Sciences and Applications

(IECMSA-2015)’’ jointly organized by Sakarya University, Kocaeli University, Bilecik

Seyh Edebali University, Turkic World Mathematical Society, University of Hassan II,

University of Mohammed V and International Balkan University, will be hold on 1

August--3 September 2015 in Athens, Greece.

The series of the International Eurasian Conference on Mathematical Sciences and

Applications provide communication between the members of the mathematics community,

interdisciplinary researchers, educators, statisticians and engineers. These conferences are

held every year in different countries with distinguished participants from all over the

world and they build agelong Cultural Bridges.

After the following three very successful international conferences the IECMSA-2012,

Prishtine, Kosovo, IECMSA-2013, Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, IECMSA-2014,

Vienna, Austria, now IECMSA-2015, Athens, Greece, hosts 300 esteemed participants

from 28 different countries .

IECMSA-2015 has taken a lot of applications all over the world. These big numbers of

applications have given us opportunity to choose the best ones to reach the higher scientific

level. After having been reviewed by the distinguished members of International Scientific

Committee; 187 oral and 43 poster presentations have been accepted and the abstracts of

them have been presented in this book. Moreover, five worldwide distinguished speakers

have been invited to the conference and the abstracts of the plenary talks have been

substituted in this book, too. The electronic version of the abstracts of all presentations can

be found in the Conference Abstracts Book at www.iecmsa.org

I wish to thank all members of scientific committee and sponsors for their continued

support to the IECMSA-2015. And finally, I would like to sincerely thank all the

participants of IECMSA-2015 for contributing to this great meeting in many different

ways. I believe and hope that each of them will get the maximum benefit from the

conference. Welcome to Athens!

Authenticated Encryption Based on Prime Moduli

Debasis Giri1

Abstract. In an authenticated encryption scheme, a signer signs a message for a

particular verifier using signer’s own private key and the public key of the verifier. The verifier

recovers the original message from the signcrypted message using the signer’s public key and the

verifier’s own private key. Significant work is done in this direction by the authors Zheng and

others. We first describe an authenticated encryption scheme for signing fixed block length

message, which is based upon a variant of the ElGamal encryption scheme and a variant of the

ElGamal signature scheme over large prime moduli. We then also present an another

authenticated encryption scheme that can be adapted for signature generation of arbitrary length

of message.

An Algebraic Description of Gradient Descent Decoding

Edgar Martínez-Moro 1

Abstract. Several constructions in (binary) linear block codes are also related to matroid

theory topics or integer programming. These constructions rely on a given order in the ground set

of the matroid/code. In this talk we will show how basic coding theory and gradient descent

coding methods can be seen as instances of some problems associated to reductions and ideal

membership to some binomial ideals. We will give a short introduction to the Gröbner

representation of a binary matroid/code and we show how it can be used for studying different

sets bases, cycles, minimal code words, etc..

Elliptic Diophantine Equations and the Elliptic Logarithm Method

Nikos Tzanakis1

Abstract. By an Elliptic Diophantine equation we mean one of the form ( ), 0f x y = ,

where:

• f is a polynomial with integer coefficients.

• The plane curve defined by the equation 0f = is of genus one and has a (projective)

point with rational coordinates.

• The sought for solutions ( ),x y are rational integers or S-integers.

The standard elliptic Diophantine equation example comes from

( ) 3 2, ,f x y x ax b y= + + − where ,a b are integers and 3 24 27 0a b+ ≠ ; this is the Weierstrass

equation.

Around 1994, with R.J. Stroeker, we elaborated the ideas of S. Lang [3], [4] concerning

these equations, and published in [6] a practical method-the Elliptic Logarithm Method; Ellog

for short-for solving explicitly such equations over the integers. A little latter, a more or less

analogous method was independently developed in [2].

In the years to follow, many interesting applications of the Ellog to Diophantine equations

over the integers (for example, to ( ), 0f x y = where ( ) 4 3 2 2 2, ,f x y ax bx cx dx e y= + + + + −

and to the resolution of simultaneous Pell equations) have been published. Moreover, the

method was implemented by the MAGMA group [1] into a routine of the package.

In the turning of the century, with R.J. Stroeker, we developed a general method for

solving

over the integers an elliptic equation of any shape, like, for example, ( ), 0f x y = with

( ) 5 4 3 6 3 2 7 4 2, 2 , 2 , 2f x y x x y x x y x x y= + − + − + − or with much more “complicated”

( ),f x y ; see [7]. Generalizing the method in an other direction, Pethö, Zimmer, Gebel and

Herrmann, in [5], extended the method for solving the Weierstarass elliptic equation from the

integers to the S-integers for an explicitly given (finite) set S of primes. The combination of

1 University of Crete, Heraklion, Greece, [email protected]

- 24 -

these two generalizations which would make possible a practical method for solving the

general elliptic Diophantine equation over the S-integers, has not been accomplished yet.

In my lecture I will try to give an overview of the Ellog and the elegant mathematical

tools and techniques behind it. I do not intend to address to specialists of Diophantine

equations, but to a general mathematical audience.

Möbius Transformations and the Circle-Preserving Property

Nihal Yılmaz Özgür1

Abstract. Let n be the real n dimensional space and let ˆ = n n ∪ ∞ . A map

ˆ ˆ: n nf → is said to be r-sphere preserving if f maps every r-dimensional sphere onto an r-

dimensional sphere. When 1r = it is called the corresponding map f as a circle-preserving

map in ˆ . n In this talk we give a survey on the circle-preserving property of Möbius

transformations acting on ˆ = n n ∪ ∞ .

Advances in Frames, Riesz Bases and Frames on Hilbert C* Modules

Ram N. Mohapatra1

Abstract. Frames have been of interest for past several years after the success of

wavelets for image processing and the introduction of wavelet frames. There has been

considerable work on Frames in Hilbert spaces, Banach spaces and Hilbert C* module. There is

also a lot of work on optimal Frames for Erasers, gframes, semi-frames and frames in semi-inner

product spaces. In this talk we shall consider some of the developments in these areas and some

open problems relating to unbiased frames.

Representations of a Leavitt Path Algebra with Coefficients in an Abelian Category

Ayten Koç and Murad Özaydin

Abstract. We define and study the module category of a Leavitt path algebra of

finitely separated digraph with coefficients in an abelian category. When the abelian

category is that of F -vector spaces then we recover the module category of ( )FL Γ , the

Leavitt path algebra with coefficients in F . In the case of an arbitrary abelian category the

module category is defined without specifying the algebra (which may not even exist and

when it exits is unique only up to Morita equivalence).

Vertex-Decomposability and Depth Bounds of Independence Complexes

Alper Ülker1 and Tahsin Öner2

Abstract. Let G be a simple undirected graph. Let ( )Ind G be the independence

complex of G whose faces correspond to the independent sets of G. We call the graph G

Cohen-Macaulay if and only if ( )( ) ( )dim Ind depth(Ind )G G= [1]. A simplicial complex ∆ is

said to be vertex-decomposable if it is either a simplex or else has some vertex v so that both

∆ and link ( )v∆ are vertex-decomposable and no face of link ( )v∆ is a facet of \v∆ [3]. We

call a simplicial complex pure if all its facets have the same dimension. If ∆ is pure and

vertex-decomposable complex then ∆ is Cohen-Macaulay complex. Let skeld∆ be the

d skeleton− of complex ∆ whose all faces have dimension ≤d [4]. depth( ) d∆ ≥ if and only

if skeld∆ is Cohen-Macaulay [2]. In this talk, we give some results about vertex-

decomposability of some particular dimensional skeletons of ( )Ind G .

Abstract. A module M is called FI-extending if every fully invariant submodule of M

is essential in a direct summand of M. In this work, we define generalized FI-extending (GFI-

extending) module as for any fully invariant submodule N of M there exists a direct summand

D of M such that N≤D and that D/N is singular. We give some characterizations of this class

of modules. To this end we focus on direct sums and summands of the former class.

Keywords. Extending Module, Fully Invariant Submodule, FI-Extending, GFI-

Extending.

An Explicit Homomorphism from the Complex Clifford Algebra to the

Cuntz Algebra

Derya Çelik1

Abstract. It is well known that there exists an isomorphism from the complex

Clifford algebra to the matrix algebra Moreover, the matrix algebra is

homomorphic (with homomorphism ) to the Cuntz algebra (see [1]). Thus, the

composition gives naturally a homomorphism from to . Since we do not have

an explicit expression of this composition yet, it would be desirable to give a direct

homomorphism from to explicitly. In this work, we construct such an explicit

homomorphism from the complex Clifford algebra to the Cuntz algebra .

A Symmetric Key Fully Homomorphic Encryption Scheme using General

Chinese Remainder Theorem

Emin Aygün1 and Erkam Lüy2

Abstract. The Fully Homomorphic Encryption was an open problem up to 2009. In

2009, Gentry solved the problem. After Gentry's solution, a lot of work have made on Fully

Homomorphic Encryption. However these works have stil too high time complexities for

pratical use. In [7], authors suggested a symmetric key homomorphic encryption scheme.

Authors proved that scheme is faster and the security of scheme is equivalent to the large

integer factorization problem. Scheme is based on matrix operations which are

computationally fully homomorphic. After that, in [8] and [9] authors extended the ideas and

suggested a new scheme. In [7] authors used 2m prime numbers in keygen algorithm and in

[8] and [9] authors extended this to 2m mutually prime numbers. In [7], [8] and [9] authors

used Chinese Remainder Theorem in Encryption algorithm for security of their encryption

scheme is equivalent to the large integer factorization problem.

We extend the approach used in [7], [8] and [9]. We use General Chinese Remainder

Theorem in Encryption algorithm and obtained a new fully homomorphic encryption scheme

by using General Chinese Remainder Theorem.

Keywords. Fully Homomorphic Encryption, Large Integer Factorization, General

Chinese Remainder Theorem.

Soft Radicals

Emin Aygün1, Akın Osman Atagün2 and Betül Erdal1

Abstract. Soft set theory, proposed by Molodtsov, has been regarded as an effective

mathematical tool to deal with uncertain objects. In this paper, we define a radical of an ideal

in soft set theory by using two different soft ideal concepts: a soft ideal of a ring and a soft

ideal of a soft ring. We give some results and illustrate with several examples.

Fixed Points on NG-Groups

Faraj A. Abdunabi1

Abstract. We consider the NG-group which consisting of transformations on a non-empty

set A and the group has no bijection as its element. Recall a permutation group on A is a group

consisting of bijections from A to A with respect to compositions of mappings. It is well known

that any permutation group on a set A with cardinality n has order not greater than n!. There are

some authors, [10], [9], Problem 1.4 in [1], considering groups which consists of non-bijective

transformations on A where the binary operation is the composition of mappings. Our result is on

the orders of such groups are mapping on a non-empty set A with respect to function

compositions which are not subsets of symmetric groups by using the fixed points.

Invariant Ring of Aut(V, H)

Fawad Hussain1

Abstract. Let V be a finite dimensional vector space over the finite field Fq with

basis e1,…,en. Suppose x1,...,xn is the dual basis of the dual vector space V∗.

Let G ≤ GL(V) and consider the polynomial ring in the n indeterminates Fq[x1,…,xn].

Invariant theory over finite fields is a branch of abstract algebra. The theory deals with those

elements of Fq[x1,…, xn] which do not change under the action of the group G. These

elements form a ring structure which is called the ring of invariants of the group G.

For a long time there has been interest in finding the ring of invariants of the group G ≤ GL(V)

The rings of invariants of the general linear and the special linear groups were computed early

in the 20th century by Dickson in [2]. These were found to be a graded polynomial algebras in

both cases. In 1992, Carlisle and Kropholler calculated the ring of invariants of the symplectic

group in [4] and their result showed that this ring of invariants is a graded complete

intersection. In 2005 Kropholler, Mohseni Rajaei and Segal [4] found explicit generators and

relations for the rings of invariants of orthogonal groups over F2 but the general case is still

open. In 2006, Chu and Jow [3] computed rings of invariants of unitary groups. In the last two

cases it was found that the rings of invariants are graded complete intersections. In this talk I

will discuss the ring of invariants of the following group:

Aut (V, H) = g ∈ GL(V) : H(gv, gu) = H(v, u) for all v, u V

where V is a vector space over the finite field Fq2 and H is a singular hermitian form on V.

Keywords. Aut (V, H), Polynomial Invariants, Graded Complete Intersection.

Solution of a Matrix Completion Problem and Nil-Clean Companion Matrices

George Ciprian Modoi1

Abstract. We solve a matrix completion problem, more precisely we write any

companion matrix as a sum between an idempotent matrix and a matrix with prescribed

characteristic polynomial. The number of applications of the matrix completion problem to

information theory, electrical engineering etc. is huge (see for example [2], [3] or [4]). Our

application is a more theoretical one: We describe nil-clean companion matrices over fields.

Recall that an element of a ring is called clean or nil-clean if it decomposes as a sum between

an idempotent and a unit, respectively a nilpotent. It turns out that decompositions like these

are important in the study of some properties of rings, see [5].

This presentation is based on a joint work with Simion Breaz, [1].

Centering nonlinear Fuchsian Codes

M. Alsina 1

Abstract. Algebraic structures as Fuchsian groups have been applied to information

theory to construct nonlinear codes. A new transmission scheme for additive white Gaussian

noisy (AWGN) channels based on Fuchsian groups was presented at [1], and their

generalization to higher rate was developped at [2]. In this talk we review the general

construction and focus on the study of the center of those codes. In order to do that we

use the geometry of the hyperbolic uniformizations of Shimura curves attached to the

Fuchsian groups developped at [3]. This work is also related with a series of papers by

Palazzo et al. among others (see for example [4]).

Some Special Codes Over 23 3 3 3v u u+ + +

Mustafa Özkan1 and Figen Öke2

Abstract. In this paper the structure of the ring 33 2

[ , ], ,

u vu v uv< >

where 03 =u ,

02 =v and 0== vuuv is described. The distance function on this ring which is isomorphic to

the ring 23 3 3 3R v u u= + + + is defined. This means that linear codes over the ring R can

be written. Then it’s shown that the Gray images of cyclic codes over the ring R are quasi-

cyclic codes of index 2 over the ring 3 3v+ . Then another Gray map from the ring 3 3v+

to 3 is described. Also the relation between the cyclic codes over the ring

23 3 3 3R v u u= + + + and quasi-cyclic codes over the field 3 is established.

Embeddings of Solvable Products Into Matrix Algebras and Generalized Fox

Derivatives

Nazar Şahin Öğüşlü1 and Naime Ekici2

Abstract. In this work we give a survey of the generalized Shmel’kin embedding. Let

F be a free product of finitely generated free abelian Lie algebras, R be an ideal of F and

V be a variety of Lie algebras. Shmel’kin has found an embedding for a Lie algebra ( )F

V R

, where ( )V R is the verbal ideal of R corresponding to variety V . In the case of ( )F

V R is a

solvable product, we apply Shmel’kin embedding for the algebra ( )F

V R . Using this

embedding we describe generalized Fox derivatives in a solvable product of finitely generated

free abelian Lie algebras.

Osman Kelekci1

Abstract. There are five different ranks defined as small rank, lower rank,

intermediate rank, upper rank and large rank, respectively ([1], [2]). In previous studies, these

ranks are calculated for certain semigroups and groups ([3], [4]). All the ranks of the direct

product of finite cyclic groups are given in this work.

A Note on a Category of Cofinite Modules which is Abelian

Reza Naghipour1

Abstract. Let $R$ denote a commutative Noetherian (not necessarily local) ring, and

I an ideal of R of dimension one. The main purpose of this paper is to generalize, and to

provide a short proof of, K. I. Kawasaki's Theorem that the category ( , )cofR I of I -

cofinite modules over a commutative Noetherian local ring R forms an Abelian subcategory

of the category of all $R$-modules. Consequently, this assertion answers affirmatively the

question

raised by R. Hartshorne in it Affine duality and cofiniteness, Invent. Math. (1970), 145-

164], for an ideal of dimension one in a commutative Noetherian ring R .

Abstract. In this paper as a generalization of permuting tri-f-derivation on a lattice we

introduced the notion of permuting n-f- derivation of a lattice. We defined the isotone

permuting n-f-derivation and got some interesting results about isotoneness. We characterized

the distributive and isotone lattices by permuting n-f-derivation.

Automorphisms of the Lie Algebras Related with 2x2 Generic Matrices

Şehmus Fındık1

Abstract. Let Fm be the relatively free algebra of rank m in the variety of Lie algebras

generated by the algebra sl2(K) over a field K of characteristic 0. We describe the inner and

outer automorphisms of the completion of Fm with respect to the formal power series

topology ([1], [2]). As a consequence we obtain the description of the inner and outer

automorphisms of the factor algebra of Fm modulo the members of its lower central series.

Some of the results were obtained with Vesselin Drensky2.

Quasi-Partial b-Metric Spaces and Some Related Fixed Point Theorems

Anuradha Gupta1 and Pragati Gautam 2

Abstract: In 1989, Bakhtin [1] introduced the concept of a b-metric space as a

generalization of metric spaces which was further extended by Czerwik [2].In 1994, Matthews

[3] introduced the notion of partial metric spaces and extended the Banach Contraction Principle

from metric spaces to partial metric spaces. Later, Shukla [4] generalized both the concept of b-

metric and partial metric spaces by introducing the partial b-metric spaces. Karapinar [5]

introduced the concept of quasi –partial metric space and studied some fixed point theorems on

these spaces. In this paper, the concept of quasi-partial b-metric space is introduced which is a

generalization of quasi-partial metric space and general fixed point theorems are proved in setting

of such spaces. Some examples are also given to verify the effectiveness of the main results.

On Transformation Types of the ( )0 NΓ and the Suborbital Graph ,Fu N

Ali Hikmet Değer1

Abstract. In [1] authors studied the action of Γ Modular group on the extended

rational set ℚ ≔ ℚ ∪ ∞ by using suborbital graphs introduced in 1967 by Sims [2] for finite

permutation groups. The simplest example of the suborbital graph is the well-known Farey

graph ℱ ≔ 𝐺1,1 which is related to the Farey sequence 𝐹𝑚. In [1] authors generalized the

properties of ℱ to suborbital graphs 𝐹𝑢,𝑁 which are isomorphic to a subgraph of ℱ.

In this paper we give the 𝐹𝑢,𝑁 -distance by using the Farey distance from [1]. We

derive the result how a shortest path in 𝐹𝑢,𝑁 from vertices ∞ to 𝑤 can be found by expressing

𝑤 as a continued fraction. Also we examine the transformation types of the congruence

subgroup Γ0(𝑁) of Γ which gives paths of minimal length of the suborbital graph 𝐹𝑢,𝑁.

Multipliers with Natural Spectra on Commutative Banach Algebras

Cesim Temel1

Abstract. Let X be a Banach space and let )(XB be the algebra of all bounded linear

operators on .X G will be denoted a locally compact abelian group with the dual group .Γ

Let )(1 GL and )(GM , respectively be the group algebra and the measure algebra of .G By

)(KC we denote the space of all continuous functions on a compact .K Let )(: XBGU →

be a strongly continuous bounded representation of G on X . For arbitrary )(GM∈µ , we

can define )(XBU ∈µ , by )(1 gxdUxUG g µµ ∫ −= , .Xx∈ Then, the mapping

)()(: XBGMh → defined by µµ U→ is a bounded unital algebra homomorphism. The

Arveson spectrum )(Usp [1] of U is defined as the hull of the closed ideal

Recall that a compact set K in Γ is a Helson set for )(1 GL if for every )(KCg ∈

there is a function )(1 GLf ∈ such that gf =

on K [4, Section 5.6.1]. If Γ⊂K is a Helson

set, then there is a constant 0>C with the following property: If )(KCg ∈ , there exists

)(1 GLf ∈ such that gf =

χχ

gCfK∈

≤ If K is a Helson set and is a set of

synthesis for )(1 GL , then K is said to be WTP (without true pseudomeasures) set for )(1 GL .

For example, compact countable independent set in Γ is a WTP set for )(1 GL [4, Theorem

5.6.7]. By )(0 GM we will denote the set of all )(GM∈µ such that µ vanishes at infinity.

We have the following

Theorem. If )(Usp is a WTP set for )(1 GL , then every )(0 GM∈µ has the spectral

Absolute Tauberian Constants

Fatma Aydın Akgün1 and Billy Rhoades2

Abstract. Sherif [2] obtained estimates of the form ∑|𝜏𝑛 − 𝑎𝑛| ≤ 𝐾∑|∆(𝑛𝑎𝑛)| and

∑|𝜏𝑛 − 𝑎𝑛| ≤ 𝐾′ ∑𝑛|∆𝜏𝑛−1| under the assumption that ∑𝑛|∆𝜏𝑛−1| is finite where ∆ is the

forward diference operator and 𝜏𝑛 = 𝐶𝑛𝑘 − 𝐶𝑛−1𝑘 . The constants K and 𝐾′ are called Tauberian

constants. Sherif [3] also obtained analogous results for regular Haudorff matrices. In a recent

paper [1] the authors obtained absolute Tauberian constants for the H-J generalized Hausdorff

transformations, which generalized the corresponding results, obtained earlier by Sherif, for

ordinary Hausdorff matrices. In this paper we obtain absolute Tauberian constants for regular

lower triangular matrices with row sums one. As corollaries we obtain the corresponding

results for factorable and weighted mean matrices.

Mean Matrices.

On Convex Meromorphic Functions

Faruk Uçar 1 and Yusuf Avcı2

Abstract. Let us denote by S(p) the set of univalent functions in the unit disc

: 1D z z= ∈ < such that 𝑓(0) = 0,𝑓′(0) = 1 and f(p) = ∞ . We denote by K the subset

of functions in S(p) which omits a convex set in the extended plane = ∪ ∞ , that is,

𝑓 ∈ 𝐾 if and only if the set ( ) ( ) \ :f D w f z w= ∈ ≠ is convex. Functions in K are

called as convex meromorphic functions. In this paper, we define a function

:p D D D× × → in terms of f and show that Re p > 12 for all ζ, z, w ∈ 𝐷 if and only if f

belongs to K.

The Relation between B-1-Convex and Convex Functions

Gabil Adilov1, Ilknur Yesilce2 and Gultekin Tinaztepe3

Abstract. Convexity has generalized different types ([4]). B-1-convexity is of these

abstract convexity classes ([1]). B-1-convex sets and functions are studied in [2,3,5].

In this work, some examples of convex and B-1-convex functions are discussed and the

relationship between convex and B-1-convex functions is examined. Finally, taking into

account given examples, it is shown that B-1convex functions and convex functions do not

include each other.

A Generalized Mountain Pass Theorem

Hans-Jörg Ruppen1

Abstract. We present a new variational characterization of multiple critical points for

even energy functionals functionals corresponding to nonlinear Schrödinger equations of the

following type:

We assume , , a.e. with and . Our

results cover the following 3 cases in a uniform way:

1. ;

2. is a Coulomb potential and

3. with for all .

The eigenvalue thereby may or may not lie inside a spectral gap.

Our variational characterization is “simple” and well suited for discussing multiple

bifurcation of solutions.

Characterizing -Limit Sets for Analytic Vector Fields in Open Subsets of the Sphere

José Ginés Espín Buendía1 and Víctor Jiménez López2

Abstract. In [1] Jiménez López and Llibre gave a topological characterization, up to

homeomorphisms, of -limit sets of (real) analytic vector fields on the plane, the sphere and

the projective plane. Here, recall that if f is a smooth vector field on a surface S, and x(t) is a

solution of the differential equation x’=f(x), then the -limit set of (the orbit associated to the

solution) x(t) is the set of limit points of x(t) as t goes to +∞.

In the last section of the paper an argument is outlined to extend these results to

analytic vector fields just defined on arbitrary subsets of these surfaces, but this argument has

a gap and, as a consequence, the proposed characterizations are incomplete. In this work, still

in progress, we partially fill this gap by proving the following result:

Theorem. If K is a totally disconnected compact subset of the sphere S2 and is an -

limit set for some analytic vector field defined on S2\K, then is the boundary of a shrub.

Conversely, if S2 is the boundary of a shrub, then there are a homeomorphism h: S2→ S2

and a C∞ vector field f on the sphere, which is analytic except for a totally disconnected

compact set of points, such that h( is an -limit set of some orbit of the equation x’=f(x).

In the second statement of the theorem, the set of points of non-analyticity can be

“minimized”: in particular, if a point x of is locally the vertex of a 2n-star in , then f is

analytic at h(x). By a shrub we mean a compact, connected, locally connected subset T of S2

containing a (possibly empty) family Dnn of closed topological disks with the following

property: if C is a topological circle in T, then there is exactly one disk Dn containing C.

The Effects of Privatisation and Competition on Malaysia Airlines Performance

Kok Fong See 1 and Azwan Abdul Rashid 2

Abstract. A commercially sustainable flag carrier airline is central to the broader geo-

political and macroeconomic national objectives of global connectivity and trade linkages for

Malaysia. However, Malaysia Airlines is in crisis. The survival of Malaysia Airlines is at

stake given the internal and external factors combining to create the perfect storm. Malaysia

Airlines reported a loss of RM1.17 billion in the full year 2013 and has had a negative

operating cash flow for the past three years, which means that it is not generating enough cash

to meet its day-to-day operating costs. As the national flagship air carrier, Malaysia Airlines

has to strike a balance between its commercial, political and social obligations and will

always be under close scrutiny. The study examines the total factor productivity (TFP) growth

of Malaysia Airlines over a 33 year period from 1981 to 2013 using the Törnqvist index

method. The privatisation of Malaysia Airlines is observed to coincide with lower TFP

growth rates. Furthermore, our results could suggest that the introduction of competition was

insufficient to produce improved TFP performance.

Connectedness of Suborbital Graphs of Some Modular Groups

Murat Beşenk1

Abstract. The matrix group 𝑆𝑆(2,ℤ) is generated by two elements 0 1−1 0 and

1 1−1 0. Identifying elements in 𝑆𝑆(2,ℤ) which differ by a sign, one obtains the modular

group 𝑃𝑆𝑆(2,ℤ). We use Γ to denote the image of Γ/±𝐼 in 𝑃𝑆𝑆(2,ℤ) if there is no confusion.

A complete classification of the normal congruence subgroups of the modular group Γ is

given by Newman [4]. Congruence subgroups are a class of arithmetic subgroups which are

easy to describe. For example, given positive integers 𝑚 and 𝑛 the following are some well-

known congruence subgroups: Γ(𝑛),Γ0(𝑛),Γ1(𝑛),Γ(𝑚, 𝑛),Γ𝜃.

In this paper, we investigate connectedness of a suborbital graph for some congruence

subgroups. In order to make graph connected, we examine necessary and sufficient conditions

for the 𝐹𝑢,𝑛, whose vertices form the block [∞]. Furthermore the structure of Farey graph in

Poincare disk 𝔻 = 𝑧 ∈ ℂ ∶ |𝑧| < 1 is analyzed.

On a Volterra Equation of the Second Kind with Spectral Parameter

Amangaliyeva M.M.,1 Jenaliyev M.T.,2 Kosmakova M.T,3 and Ramazanov M.I.4

Abstract. Solving the boundary value problems of the heat equation in noncylindrical

domains degenerating at the initial moment leads to the necessity of research of the singular

Volterra integral equations of the second kind, when the norm of the integral operator is equal

to 1. The paper deals with the singular Volterra integral equation of the second kind, to which

by virtue of 'the incompressibility' of the kernel the classical method of successive

approximations is not applicable. It is shown that the corresponding homogeneous equation

when |𝜆| > 1 has a continuous spectrum, and the multiplicity of the characteristic numbers

increases depending on the growth of the modulus of the spectral parameter |𝜆|. By the

Carleman-Vekua regularization method [1] the initial equation is reduced to the Abel

equation. The eigenfunctions of the equation are found explicitly. Similar integral equations

also arise in the study of spectral-loaded heat equations [2], [3].

Abstract. Fractional differential and integral equations can serve as an excellent tool

for the description of mathematical modelling of systems and processes in the fields of

economics, physics, chemistry, aerodynamics, and polymer rheology. It also serves as an

excellent tool for the description of hereditary properties of various materials and processes.

The purpose of this talk is to investigate the Hyers-Ulam stability for a class of

nonlinear Volterra integral equations under some natural conditions which corresponds to

numerous related outcomes in [1,2,3,4,5,6]. In fact, we presented and studied two types of

stability of this equation.

Abel Convergence of Convolution Operators

Özlem Girgin Atlıhan1 and Mehmet Ünver2

Abstract. The classical Korovkin approximation theory deals with the convergence of

a given sequence ( )nL of positive linear operators on C[a,b]. When the sequence of positive

linear operators does not converge to the identity operator then it may be usefull to use some

summability methods. In this paper, we study some Korovkin type approximation theorems

for the sequences of convolution operators via Abel method which is a sequence-to-function

transformation. We also deal with the rate of Abel convergence.

Lyapunov Functions and Strict Stability of Caputo Fractional Differential Equations

R. Agarwal1, S. Hristova2 and D. O’Regan3

Abstract. One of the main properties studied in the qualitative theory of differential

equations is the stability of solutions. Many authors defined and studied various types of

stability for different classes of differential equations but the investigation of the stability of

fractional order systems is quite recent. There are several approaches in the literature to study

stability, one of which is the Lyapunov approach. Note application of Lyapunov techniques to

fractional differential equations causes many difficulties. We will present the approach using

Lyapunov functions for studying some stability properties of nonlinear Caputo fractional

differential equations. A new definition for the derivative of Lyapunov functions among the

studied equation is introduced. It is based on the Caputo fractional Dini derivative of a

function. Comparison results using this new definition and scalar fractional differential

equations are presented and sufficient conditions for some types of stability are given. Several

examples will illustrate the advantages and the usefulness of the introduced definition

comparatively to the known ones in the literature.

On a Caputo type fractional operator

Ricardo Almeida1 Agnieszka Malinowska2 and Tatiana Odzijewicz3

Abstract. We study a Caputo-Katugampola fractional derivative, which is a

generalization of the Caputo and the Caputo--Hadamard fractional derivatives [1,2]. After

presenting some important results about the fractional operator, we study variational problems

with dependence on this operator. We present sufficient and necessary conditions of first and

second order to determine the extremizers of a functional. The cases of integral and

holomonic constraints are also considered. An existence and uniqueness theorem for a

fractional Caputo type problem, with dependence on the Caputo-Katugampola derivative, is

proven. A decomposition formula for the Caputo-Katugampola derivative is obtained. This

formula allows us to provide a simple numerical procedure to solve the fractional differential

equation.

Chaotic Behavior of Logistic Maps in Mann Orbit

Renu Chugh 1 and Ashish 2

Abstract. The idea of logistic map rx(1-x) was given by the Belgian mathematician Pierre

Francois Verhulst around 1845 and worked as basic model to study the discrete dynamical

system. It is a model of population growth that exhibits different types of behavior depending on

the value of a few parameters. Above a certain parameter value, the logistic map shows the

chaotic behavior. For choosing x between 0 and 1 and 0 < r ≤ 4, the logistic map has found a

celebrated place in chaos, fractal and discrete dynamics. In 1994, Holmgren Richard A., [5] has

studied that the logistic map in Picard orbit becomes chaotic in nature for r > 4 (see also [1], [2],

[4]). In recent decades, Rani et. al. [3, 6, 7] has shown that in Mann, Ishikawa and Noor iterative

methods the logistic map is stable for the larger values of r than that of Picard orbit. Our goal in

this paper is to study the chaotic behavior of logistic map in Mann iterative method using

bifurcation representation. We see that the range of chaotic behavior of logistic map increases

drastically. Also, the chaotic behavior disappears in some cases.

Interpolation of Function Spaces Associated to a Vector Measure

R. del Campo1 , A. Fernández2, F. Mayoral3 and F. Naranjo4

Abstract. A basic problem in interpolation theory is to describe the spaces obtained by

applying an interpolation method to concrete compatible couples of spaces. In this talk we

analyze the results obtained in [1], [2], [3] and [4] by applying different interpolation methods

(real and complex) to different couples of Banach and quasi-Banach spaces associated to a

vector measure.

Let ν be a countably additive vector measure with values in a Banach space defined

on a δ -ring (or on a σ − algebra) of subsets of a set Ω . Associated with ν , for 1 ,p≤ < ∞ are

the real function Banach spaces ( ),pL ν and ( ),pwL ν of equivalence classes of scalar measurable

functions p -integrable, weak p -integrable, with respect to ν . These two spaces are

equipped with the topology of convergence in p -mean given by the norm

( ): sup | | | , |: 1 , ( ).p

w

pp pwL

f f d x x f Lν

ν ν′ ′

Ω = ⟨ ⟩ ≤ ∈ ∫

We are going to point out that the interpolation results for vector measures defined on δ -

rings can be very different from those on the context of σ − algebras.

Abstract. Let X be an order continuous Banach function space on a finite measure

space ( , , )µΩ Σ and let E a Banach space. Given a continuous linear operator :T X E we

consider the vector measure ( ) : ( )T Am A T χ= . Then the space 1( )TL m of scalar integrable

functions with respect to the vector measure Tm is the optimal domain of the operator T . In

this talk we consider two order continuous Banach function spaces 0X , 1X a Banach space

interpolation pair ( )0 1,E E and admissible operator between the pairs ( )0 1,X X and ( )0 1,E E .

If 0 1 [ ] 0 1 [ ]:[ , ] [ , ]T X X E Eθ θ θ is the interpolated operator by the first complex method

Calderon and 0m , 1m and mθ are the vector measure coming from the operators 0XT ,

1XT and

Tθ respectively, we study the relationship between the optimal domain 1( )L mθ of Tθ and the

interpolated space 1 10 1 [ ][ ( ), ( )]L m L m θ of the optimal domains 1

0( )L m and 11( ).L m Next we

apply the obtained result to study interpolation of p -th power factorable operators.

Inventory Model of Type (s,S) with Regularly Varying Demands Having

Infinite Variance

Aslı Bektaş Kamışlık1,Tülay Kesemen2 and Tahir Khaniyev3

Abstract. In this study an inventory model of type (s,S) with regularly varying

demand having infinite variance is considered. Pareto distribution with infinite variance when

𝐹(𝑥) = 𝑏𝑥𝛼

, 𝑥 ≥ 𝑏, 𝑏 > 0, 1 < 𝛼 < 2 is used as a repsentative of regularly varying

distributions. This work is motivated by a study of Geluk (1997). The results from Geluk’s

paper are implemented to the stochastic process X(t) which represents the model that we

consider. Based on the main result of the study Geluk (1997) two term asymptotic expansion

for the ergodic distribution of the process X(t) is obtained as follows:

𝑄𝑌(𝜐) = 𝐹(𝜐) +1

2𝜇1𝛽𝛼−1𝐺(𝜐) + 𝑂

1𝛽1−(2−𝛼)2

where;

𝐹(𝜐) =4𝜐 − 𝜐2

4

𝐺(𝜐) =(21−𝛼(2 − 𝜐)2 − (2 − 𝜐)3−𝛼)𝑏𝛼

(𝛼 − 1)(2 − 𝛼)(3 − 𝛼)

𝜐 ∈ [0,2), 𝑥 ≥ 𝑏, 𝑏 > 0, 1 < 𝛼 < 2, 𝛽 = 𝑆 − 𝑠

2→ ∞.

Moreover weak convergence theorem is proved for the ergodic distribution.

Inverse Spectral Problem for Sturm Liouville Operator with Spectral Parameter

Dependent Boundary Condition

Aynur Çöl 1

Abstract. Consider the boundary value problem generated by the equation

−𝑦" + 𝑞(𝑥)𝑦 = 𝜆2𝑦, 0 < 𝑥 < ∞

with the boundary condition

(𝛼0 + 𝑖𝛼1𝜆 − 𝛼2𝜆2−𝑖𝛼3𝜆3)𝑦′(0) − (𝛽0 + 𝑖𝛽1𝜆 − 𝛽2𝜆2−𝑖𝛽3𝜆3)𝑦(0) = 0

where λ is a spectral parameter, 𝑞(𝑥) is real valued function with the condition

∫ (1 + 𝑥)|𝑞(𝑥)|𝑑𝑥∞0 < ∞.

Here the polynomials in boundary condition satisfy the relations for 𝛼𝑖 ,𝛽𝑖 ∈ ℝ (𝑖 = 1,2,3)

𝛼𝑖+1𝛽𝑖 − 𝛼𝑖𝛽𝑖+1 > 0, 𝛼𝑖+2𝛽𝑖 − 𝛼𝑖𝛽𝑖+2 < 0, 𝛼𝑖+3𝛽𝑖 − 𝛼𝑖𝛽𝑖+3 = 0.

In this work, it is considered the Sturm Liouville operator with eigenvalue parameter

dependent boundary condition, and the corresponding inverse scattering problem is analyzed.

Scattering data are defined, some properties of the scattering data are examined, the main

equation is obtained and it is shown that the potential is uniquely recovered by the scattering

data. When the boundary condition doesn’t contain spectral parameter, inverse problem for

equation on the half line was solved in [1]. The similar problem for Sturm Liouville operators

with discontinuous coefficient was examined in [2].

Incorporating Views on Market Dynamics in Options Hedging

Antoine E. Zambelli1

Abstract. We examine the possibility of incorporating information or views of market

movements during the holding period of a portfolio, in the hedging of European options with

respect to the underlying. Given a fixed holding period interval, we explore whether it is

possible to adjust the number of shares needed to effectively hedge our position to account for

views on market dynamics from present until the end of our interval, to account for the time-

dependence of the options' sensitivity to the underlying. We derive an analytical expression

for the number of shares needed by adjusting the standard Black-Scholes-Merton Δ quantity,

in the case of an arbitrary process for implied volatility, and we present numerical results.

Numerical Identification of the Filtration Capacitive Parameters in Two-Phase

Petroleum Reservoirs

A. Sakabekov1, D. Ahmed Zaki2 and Y. Auzhani3

Abstract. Modeling method is used to control a reservoir [1]. Modeling allows us to

understand the geology of a reservoir and predict its behavior under different scenarios of

development. It is necessary to predict the behavior of reservoir and technological

development indicators at all stages of the development of field. Reliable geological and

technological models are necessary to make decisions about the further study and

optimization of the development of hydrocarbon deposits. It is necessary to note that a

permanent operating geological and technological model is a central object for fields under

development [2]-[3]. Adaptation of the model to the exploration history is an important and

current problem of the field development. The identification of filtration capacitive

parameters of a reservoir, that are inherent in the model, is done by solving the inverse

problem. This is the process of history matching. Usually parameters with the highest

uncertainty, that strongly influence the solution, are corrected. And usually production and

injection of each component are known when exploration history is reproduced.

In this paper was considered non-linear three-dimensional two-phase filtration

problem in a bounded three-dimensional region under the corresponding initial and boundary

conditions. The algorithm for solving the inverse problem of parameter identification of

inhomogeneous oil reservoir is made. It was build full implicit scheme for numerical solution

for an imitation problem. Was introduced the target function [4]-[5], which is the measure of

disparity between observed values and system response. The elements of Jacobian matrix for

three-dimensional two-phase filtration problem in case of three-dimensional rectangular grid

are calculated. The iterative process for determining coefficients of model sensitivity and

coefficients of filtration parameters of inhomogeneous oil reservoir was built. It was build

algorithm for numerical solution of the parameter identification problem.

Multiple Scales Analysis and Exact Solutions for KdV Type

Nonlinear Differential Equations

Burcu Ayhan1, M. Naci Özer2 and Ahmet Bekir3

Abstract. In this paper we apply multiple scale analysis for Korteweg-de Vries (KdV)

type equations and we derive Nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation. So we get a relation

between KdV Type equations and NLS equations. Also exact solutions are found for KdV

type equations. The (G′/G)-expansion methods and the (G′/G,1/G)-expansion methods are

proposed to establish new exact solutions for KdV type differential equations. We obtain

periodic and hyperbolic function solutions for these equations. These methods are very

effective for getting travelling wave solutions of nonlinear differential equations.

Finite Difference Method for Film Equation in a Class of Discontinuous Functions

Bahaddin Sinsoysal1, Mahir Rasulov2 and Ethem Ilhan Sahin3

Abstract. In this study, an original method has been suggested to find a numerical

solution of initial-boundary value problem for a fourth order degenerate diffusion equation

which describes the thin film flow. For this goal, a special auxiliary problem which has some

advantages over the main problem has been introduced and using the solution of it, a new

method has been suggested for finding the weak solution of the main problem. Thus, the

numerical solution of the main problem can be calculated by using the solution of the

auxiliary problem obtained before, which expresses all of the physical properties accurately.

In the study also some computer experiments are carried out.

Analysis of Sound Diffraction from a Duct with Exterior Surface Impedance

Burhan Tiryakioğlu1 and Ahmet Demir2

Abstract. In the present work, a rigorous solution is presented for the problem of

diffraction of sound waves emanating from a ring source by a semi-infinite circular

cylindrical pipe whose exterior surface is lined by an acoustically absorbent material. This

boundary-value problem is investigated using Wiener-Hopf technique. The solution is

obtained analytically by using fourier transform and saddle point technique. At the end of the

analysis, numerical results illustrating the effects of the acoustic absorbent lining on the

exterior surface of the cylinder on the sound spread are presented.

Intuitionistic Fuzzy Optimization Technique in Multi-Commodity Solid

Transportation Models

Deepika Rani1 and T. R. Gulati1

Abstract. While traditional as well as solid transportation problems have received

enough attention in the literature, same is not the case with multi-commodity solid

transportation problems. But, the occurrence of such problems is not unusual in industrial

problems. This paper studies a solid transportation problem with heterogeneous products to be

transported from supply points to demand points taking into consideration the safety factors

while transporting. There always exist some risk in transporting the products from supply

points to the demand points due to bad road conditions, insurgency etc. in some routes

specially in the developing countries. In view of this, desired total safety factor is being

introduced as well as an additional constraint on the budget at each destination is also

considered. To reflect the uncertainty in real life situations, transportation parameters are

taken as fuzzy numbers. The proposed algorithm proceeds by transforming the problem to

Commutative Tripotent Matrices

Emre Kişi1 and Halim Özdemir2

Abstract. It has been established a 3n -term disjoint idempotent decomposition (DID)

for the linear combinations produced from ( 2)n ≥ commutative tripotent matrices, their

products and their products of power 2 at most. The results obtained in this way generalize

those in [1]. Moreover, an algorithm to get a DID has been provided. Finally, a numerical

example has been given to exemplify the results.

Equations of Anisotropic Elastodynamics for 1 Dimensional Qcs as a Symmetric

Hyperbolic System: Deriving the Time-Dependent Fundamental Solution

H. Çerdik Yaslan1

Abstract. In this study dynamic elasticity equations for 1D quasicrystals (QCs) with

arbitrary system of anisotropy are considered. For these equations the phonon-phason

displacements, displacement speeds and stresses arising from pulse point source are

computed. Firstly, definition of the fundamental solution (FS) for the time-dependent

differential equations of anisotropic elasticity in 1D QCs is given. These equations are written

in the form of a symmetric hyperbolic system of the first order. Using the Fourier transform

with respect to the space variables and matrix transformations we obtain formulae of the FS

columns. As a computational example FS components are computed for orthorhombic and

triclinic structures in 1D QCs.

The Fracture of the Elastic Matrix Containing Two Neighboring Co-phase Periodically

Curved Carbon Nanotubes

İ. Gülten 1 and R. Köşker 2

Abstract. It is known that one of the major mechanisms of the fracture of the

unidirectional composites under uniaxial compression along the reinforcing elements is the

stability loss in the material structure (structural or internal instability). According to this

mechanism, the theoretical investigations of the fracture of the unidirectional composites

under uniaxial compression along the reinforcing elements are reduced to the investigations of

the stability loss in the material structure, and the value of the external critical forces is

accepted as the value of failure forces in compression. At present, numerous theoretical and

experimental investigations have been carried out in this field. In [1,2,3] within the

framework of the piecewise homogeneous body model with the use of the Three-Dimensional

Geometrically Nonlinear Exact Equations of the Theory of Viscoelasticity the approach for

the investigation of the internal stability loss (microbuckling) in the structure of the

viscoelastic unidirected fibrous composites under compression along the fibers is developed.

However, in [1,2,3] the composite material was modelled as an infinite viscoelastic body

containing fibers. In the paper [4] the attempt is made for development of the internal stability

loss problems in the structure of the unidirectional fibrous composites for the case where the

reinforcing element in the composite is the double-walled carbon nanotube (DWCNT). In the

paper [5], the case is considered where a single periodical curved carbon nanotube (CNT)

with an infinite length is contained by an infinite body with low concentration of CNT and the

stability loss problem in that is investigated. The investigation on how the critical values

related to the internal stability loss of composites is affected by the CNTs reciprocally as the

volume ratio of CNTs gets bigger in composites, is very important. In the present

investigation the approaches [5] is developed for solution of these stability loss problems and

investigates the influence of the interaction between two neighboring CNTs on the values of

the critical values. It is assumed that in the initial state the CNTs have the same initial

imperfection in the periodical curving form. Within the framework of the piecewise

homogeneous body model with the use of the Three-Dimensional Geometrically Nonlinear

Exact Equations of the Theory of Elasticity the growing of the initial imperfection is

investigated. The corresponding non-linear boundary-value problem is solved by employing

boundary-shape perturbation method. In this case a small parameter characterizing the degree

of the initial imperfection is introduced and the solution of the mentioned problem is

presented in power series form in this small parameter. It is proven that the zeroth and first

approximations are enough for investigation of the development of the initial imperfection.

The case where the mentioned imperfection starts to increase and becomes indefinitely is

taken as a fracture (stability loss) criterion.

On Homoclinic Structure for 2D Coupled Nonlinear Schrödinger System

Irma Hacinliyan1 and Ceni Babaoğlu2

Abstract. It has been demonstrated that an analytic description of the homoclinic

structure for 1D nonlinear Schrödinger equation is obtained via soliton type solutions [1]. In a

further work, these analytic expressions of homoclinic orbits are used for 1D coupled

nonlinear Schrödinger system and long-short wave equations [2]. In this study, the homoclinic

structure for 2D coupled nonlinear Schrödinger (CNLS) system is investigated by following a

similar approach. It is observed that the fixed point in the CNLS system is hyperbolic. Then,

the soliton type solutions which form homoclinic orbits are found by using Hirota's method.

Some consequences are also supported by numerical computations.

Inverse Spectral Problems for Energy-Dependent Sturm-Liouville Equations with

Finitely Many Point 𝜹 −Interactions

Manaf Dzh. Manafov1

Abstract. We study inverse spectral problems for energy-dependent Sturm-Liouville

equations with finitely many point 𝛿 −interactions a finite interval. Spectral problems of

differential operators are studied in two main branches, namely, direct and inverse problems.

Direct problems of spectral analysis consist in investigating the spectral properties of an

operator. On the other hand, inverse problems aim at recovering operators from their spectral

characteristics. One takes for the main spectral data, for instance, one, two, or more spectra,

the spectral function, the spectrum, and the normalized constants, the Weyl function. Direct

and inverse problems for the classical Sturm-Liouville operators have been extensively

studied (refer to [1-4]). In this study, various uniqueness results are proved, and a constructive

procedure for the solution is provided.

Effect of a Surface Asperity at the Nanoscale

M. Grekov1 and S. Kostyrko2

Abstract. Unlike bulk material elements, the nanostructures have elastic properties

which are highly depend on their size. This size dependency of properties at the nanoscale can

be understood by incorporating the effect of surface stress. The intent of this work is to

examine the effect of surface and bulk elastic parameters, surface stress and nanosized

asperity shape on stress concentration and local stress distribution at a solid surface. We

consider the 2-D model of semi-infinite elastic solid having a nanosized surface roughness

and subjected to remote tensile loading. It is assumed that, according to Young-Laplace law

[1], the traction at the boundary is expressed in terms of surface stress which is intrinsic to

nanometer size structures. In order to find the surface stress we take into consideration the

condition of surface and bulk inseparability. To solve the boundary value problem, we use

Gurtin-Murdoch surface elasticity model [1] containing constitutive equations for the surface

linear elasticity with two elastic parameters and residual surface stress [2]. The way of

deriving an analytical solution is based on Goursat-Kolosov complex potentials,

Muskhelishvili representations and the boundary perturbation technique. This technique leads

to the singular integro-differential equation in expansion coefficients of surface stress in each-

order approximation. The solution of this equation and numerical results are presented in the

first-order approximation.

Conservation Laws and Exact Solutions of Nonlinear Differential Equation

Melike Kaplan1, Arzu Akbulut2 and Filiz Tascan3

Abstract. The concept of conservation laws has a long and profound history in

physics. Whatever the physical laws considered: classical mechanics, fluid mechanics, solid

state physics, as well as quantum mechanics, quantum field theory or general relativity ,

whatever constituents of the theory and the intricate dynamic processes involved, quantities

left dynamically invariant have always been essential ingredients to describe nature. At the

mathematical level conservation laws are deeply connected with the existence of a variational

principle which admits symmetry transformations [1], [2].

In this study we have used conservation theorem approach to construct conservation

laws of an equation [3]. Also by using the (G’/G,1/G)- expansion method exact solutions have

been verified [4].

Stability of One Nonlinear System with Delay

Mikhlin Leonid Stanislavovich 1 and Prasolov Alexander Vital'evich 2

Abstract. In the book [1] Lotka-Volterra mathematical model is widely used in economic

dynamics. The model for two economic agents and in the multidimensional case has a second

order polynomial nonlinearity in the right-hand side. Furthermore, the delay is entered in its

reproduction mechanism. Thereby, the analysis of the qualitative behavior of solutions requires

apparatus of nonlinear systems with concentrated delay. Many papers are focused on these

problems. In particular, the recognized authoritative textbooks and monographs by N. N.

Krasovsky [2], R. Bellman and K. Cooke [3], J. Hale [4], etc.

In the paper [1] (see also [5]) basic model is analyzed in point of asymptotic stability of

the equilibrium states and the presence of oscillations about stationary points when asymptotic

stability is absent. Analysis algorithm is generally accepted: calculating stationary points, building

the linear part of the system in deviations and the problem of asymptotic stability of the

equilibrium solutions of the nonlinear system is solved by the location of the roots of the

characteristic equation. Herewith nonlinear part must satisfy the conditions of the theorem about

stability in first approximation by N. N. Krasovsky, which we'll give for the sake of completeness

by [2] in the case of the same constant delay in all system's equations.

The novelty of this study is selection of the class of mathematical models with a special

introducted delay. Let us recall that the characteristic equation of a linear system with

concentrated delay is not polynomial as in systems without delay but quasipolynomial, and this

brings difficulties as a countable number of roots [3]. Selected class reduces the problem to the

analysis of a finite number of roots, for each of which are known conditions of asymptotic

stability. In this article were obtained three theorems which allow us to find the critical value of

delay for a sufficiently broad class of systems arbitrary dimension by a simple algorithm. Lotka-

Volterra systems are widely used in the simulation of economic processes, and examples confirm

the applicability of these theorems.

Interchange of Mass after a Close Encounter between Galaxies

M. Ollé 1, E. Barrabés and J.M. Cors

Abstract. The talk's context is Celestial Mechanics and the application of dynamical

systems tools to study the motion of the parabolic restricted three body problem (PRTBP).

The goal of this problem is to study the motion of a massless body attracted, under the

Newton's law of gravitation, by two equal masses moving in parabolic orbits all over in the

same plane. The PRTBP may be regarded as a simplified model for the motion of two

galaxies, taken as the primaries, and an infinitesimal mass. In order to discuss possible

motions for the particle, first we consider a rotating and pulsating frame where the equal

masses (primaries) remain at rest. The obtained system of ODE is gradient-like and has

exactly ten hyperbolic equilibrium points lying on the boundary invariant manifolds

corresponding to escape of the primaries in past and future time. The invariant manifolds of

the equilibrium points play a key role in the dynamics and we study some trajectories

described by the particle before and after a close encounter between the primaries. Finally

some numerical simulations are done, paying special attention to capture and escape orbits.

On Two-Dimensional Nonsteady Free Convection near Vertical Plate subject to

Stepped-up Surface Temperature

Nirmal C. Sacheti 1, Pallath Chandran2 and Ashok K. Singh 3

Abstract. Theoretical studies involving buoyancy-driven flows of viscous

incompressible fluids near stationary or moving vertical flat plates have been a subject of

intense investigations in the literature, apparently due to numerous applications in a number

of areas of engineering and technology. In such convection problems, the role of momentum

as well as thermal boundary conditions is known to have a significant bearing on the

developing as well as fully developed flows. For instance, in certain applications, the nature

of the initial thermal profile of the bounding surface could play an important role in the design

processes. We have thus investigated a specific unsteady free convective flow near a semi-

infinite vertical plate assuming that bounding plate has been subjected to stepped-up time

dependent temperature distribution. This leads to the development of boundary layer near the

surface. We have solved the governing momentum and thermal boundary layer equations

numerically using an appropriate implicit finite difference technique, and exhibited the

profiles of the developing and steady state velocity and temperature at various cross-sections.

Furthermore, we have also included the plots of isotherms to analyze the thermal changes in

the boundary layer. The comparison of some results with infinite vertical wall case as well as

variations of two quantities of engineering interest, namely, wall skin friction and Nusselt

number, will also be reported during the presentation.

An Alternative Technique for Solving Ordinary Differential Equations

Neşe Dernek1, Fatih Aylıkçı2 and Sevil Kıvrak3

Abstract. In the present paper, a new method for solving ordinary differential

equations is given by using the generalized Laplace transform Ln:

The Ln-transform and the complex inverse generalized Laplace transform Ln-1 were

introduced by Dernek and Aylıkcı in [4]. The Ln-1-transform is defined by

where Lnf(x),y1/n has a finite number of singularities in the left-half plane Re(y) ≤ c.

The object of this paper is first to introduce a differentiation operator δ for the Ln-transform

that we call the δ-derivative and define as ([4],[11])

We note

The δ-derivative operator can be successively applied in a similar fashion for any positive

integer power. A relation between the Ln-transform of the δ-derivative of a function and the

Ln-transform of the function itself is derived by the following theorem.

Theorem1.If f is piecewise continuous function on the interval [0,∞) and is exponential order

exp(xnyn) as x → ∞, for some constant a, then the following relation

holds true for k ≥ 1, k is a positive integer.

The theorem for the inverse transform Ln-1 is given as follows.

Theorem2. Let Lnf(x),y1/nbe an analytic function of y except at singular points, each of

which lies to the left of the vertical line Re(y)=c and they are finite numbers. Suppose that

y=0 is not a branch point and limy→∞Lnf(x),y1/n=0 in the left-plane Re(y) ≤ c, then the

following identity

holds true for m singular points.

Definition: The convolution of two integrable functions f(x) and g(x) is defined by

Theorem3. If Lnf(x),y=F(y) and Lng(x),y=G(y), then the relation for the convolution

off(x) and g(x),

holds true.

In the last part of this paper using above theorems, some initial-value problems are solved as

examples.

Estimating Elasticity Modulus of the Piezo Ceramic Disc Using Basic Mathematical

Modelling

Nedret Elmas 1, Levent Paralı, Ali Sarı, Jiri Pechousek and Frantisek Latal

Abstract. The objective of this paper is to determine a mathematical modelling of

piezoceramic disc vibration using a single degree freedom mechanical model, with estimation of

its elasticity modulus. The experimental vibration displacement values of piezo ceramic disc have

been achieved utilizing the swept-sine signal excitation following the peak values in the signal

response measured by the laser Doppler vibrometer. Consistency between the mathematical

modelling and experimental values have been observed from 97 to 80 % between excitation

amplitudes of 0.5 and 3.5 V when the mathematical modeling of piezo ceramic disc is normally

taken into consideration with a linear working range. The results obtained from experimental

studies on resonance frequency are in a compliance with reference value declared by producer of

the piezo ceramic disc.

Oscillation Results for a Class of Fourth-order Nonlinear Differential Equations with

Positive and Negative Coefficients

Nagehan Kılınç Geçer1 and Pakize Temtek2

Abstract. Over the past few years, there has been a strong interest in the study of the

oscillatory behavior of solutions of delay differential equations with positive and negative

coefficients of the first and second orders. However, very few results are available on the

study of oscillatory and asymptotic behavior of solutions of the fourth-order equations, which

is explained by significant technical difficulties arising in the analysis of these equations.

Thus we are concerned with oscillation of the fourth-order differential equations with positive

and negative coefficients and obtained oscillation results by using some techniques for these

differential equations.

Different Methods for Nonlinear Fractional Differential Equation

Özkan Guner1, Ahmet Bekir2, Adem C. Cevikel3 and Esin Aksoy4

Abstract. In this study, the nonlinear fractional partial differential equation have been

defined by the modified Riemann-Liouville fractional derivative [1,2]. By using this fractional

derivative and the fractional complex transform [3-5], the nonlinear fractional partial

differential equations have been converted into nonlinear ordinary differential equations. Then

the reduced equations can be solved by symbolic computation.

The different methods [6-14] are implemented to get exact solutions of the nonlinear

fractional equation. As a result, some exact solutions including hyperbolic solutions of this

equation have been successfully obtained.

A Gravitational model with Y(R)F2-type Coupling

Özcan Sert1

Abstract. We investigate a gravitational model which involves a non-minimal

coupling between a function of curvature scalar and electromagnetic fields in Y (R)F2 form.

The models with RF2-type couplings [1–4] give more information about gravity and

electromagnetism. The natural extensions of the models to the Y (R)F2 gravity [5] were

studied in order to explain the late-time acceleration and inflation of the universe. Moreover,

the rotational curves of test particles around galaxies may be realized by considering a non-

minimal Y (R)F2 gravity [6,7]. We give the gravitational field equations obtained from a first-

order variation principle using the method of Lagrange multipliers and the algebra of exterior

differential forms. We discuss various spherically symmetric, electromagnetic solutions

consistent with observations.

Some Aspects of Natural Convection in a Hydrodynamically and Thermally Anisotropic

Porous Non-Rectangular Cavity

Pallath Chandran1, Nirmal C. Sacheti2, Ashok K. Sing3 and Beer S. Bhadauria4

Abstract. Natural convection in a porous non-rectangular vertical cavity with a

sloping upper boundary with or without heat sources/sinks has been considered. It is assumed

that the cavity is filled with porous material subject to hydrodynamical and thermal

anisotropy. Assuming Darcy law to hold, together with Boussinesq approximation, the

governing partial differential equations have been solved numerically. To facilitate the

computation, the non-rectangular physical domain has been transformed to a square

computational domain using an algebraic grid generation method. The effect of a range of

parameters of interest such as internal heating parameter, slope of the upper boundary, Darcy-

Rayleigh number and aspect ratio, has been illustrated through plots of streamlines and

isotherms. Furthermore, the variation of the average Nusselt number has also been discussed

in relation to the anisotropic as well as heat source/sink parameters.

Classic Metaheuristics and Evolutionary Optimization Algorithms for Routing

Problems: A Computational Study

Pantelis Z. Lappas1, Manolis N. Kritikos2 and George D. Ioannou3

Abstract. This paper focuses on the development of effective metaheuristic algorithms

for hard combinatorial optimization problems, such as routing problems. Routing problem is

the generic name given to a whole class of problems in which the transportation is necessary.

The Travelling Salesman Problem (TSP), the Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) and the

Inventory Routing Problem (IRP) are representative examples of this category. Routing

problems have received much attention throughout the literature, because they are easily

described, widely applied to many transportation and distribution problems, and difficult to be

solved. The TSP is the most basic routing problem, as well as, a typical model of the

combinatorial optimization problems whose computation complexity is of non-polynomial

time (NP-Hard problem). The statement of the TSP is rather simple: a vehicle is to visit a

number of customers and the distance connecting two customers is known; the problem is to

find the shortest route that starts from a depot, visits all customers exactly once, and returns to

the depot. However, in transportation problems, customers have usually a demand, whereas

the depot consists of a fleet of vehicles, with limited and known capacity. This situation

reflects the VRP which generalizes the Multiple Travelling Salesman Problem (m-TSP), that

is the TSP with m vehicles. The VRP is even more complicated, since for small fleet sizes and

a moderate number of transportation requests, the planning task is highly complex. The

Vehicle Routing Problem with Time Windows (VRPTW) is a generalization of the VRP

involving the added complexity that every customer should be served within a given time

window. Furthermore, the IRP is an extension of the VRP, which integrates routing decisions

with inventory control. The problem arises in environments where Vendor Managed

Inventory (VMI) resupply policies are employed. Whereas VRPs typically deal with a single

day, IRPs have to deal with a longer horizon (a sequence of days). Actually, contrary to the

VRP, the vendor (supplier), not the customers, decides how much to deliver to which

customer each day. Moreover, the Inventory Routing Problem with Time Windows (IRPTW),

which is not addressed in the literature so far, is a generalization of the standard IRP involving

the added complexity that every customer should be served within a given time window. The

IRP is obviously NP-Hard, being a generalization of the single vehicle IRP, which reduces to

the TSP when time horizon is composed of one day, the inventory costs are zero, all the

customers need to be served and the transportation capacity is infinite. Due to the NP-hard

nature of the routing problems, it is very challenging to develop exact algorithms that can

solve large scale problems in a reasonable computational time. The TSP has been a primary

driving force for the development of novel optimization concepts and solution algorithms.

Several of the most important classic metaheuristics and evolutionary optimization algorithms

for the routing problems are summarized, implemented and compared, in the context of the

TSP. Classic metaheuristics that have been developed are related to algorithms such as: (1)

Iterated Local Search (ILS), (2) Guided Local Search (GLS), (3) Variable Neighborhood

Search (VNS), (4) Greedy Randomized Adaptive Search Procedure (GRASP), (5) Tabu

Search (TS) and (6) Simulated Annealing (SA). In addition, evolutionary optimization

algorithms that have been developed and compared to classic metaheuristics encompass

population-based approaches such as: (1) Genetic Algorithm (GA) and (2) Ant Colony

Optimization Algorithm (ACO). Some testing instances with different properties are

established to investigate the algorithmic performance, and the computational results are then

reported. Experimental results show that the GAs produce an optimal solution and reflect

superior performance compared to the classic algorithms. As a consequence, GAs have been

chosen and implemented to solve several variants of TSP, namely the m-TSP and the

VRPTW. Finally, an hybrid GA, combining Monte Carlo Simulation and GA, is used for

solving the IRPTW.

The Lp Hardy Inequality with Two Weight Functions and Its Improved Versions

Semra Ahmetolan1 and İsmail Kombe2

Abstract. In this work, the Lp Hardy Inequality with two weight functions is obtained

for generalized Greiner vector fields:

∫ 𝜌𝛼|𝑧|𝑡|∇k∅|𝑝𝑑𝑑 Ω ≥ (𝑄+𝛼+𝑡−𝑝𝑝

)𝑝 ∫ 𝜌𝛼−𝑝|𝑧|𝑡|∇k𝜌|𝑝|∅|𝑝𝑑𝑑 Ω .

A generic point in ℝ2𝑛+1, 𝑛 ≥ 1, is defined by 𝑑 = (𝑧, 𝑙) = (𝑥,𝑦, 𝑙) ∈ ℝ2𝑛+1 where 𝑥,𝑦 ∈

ℝ𝑛 , 𝑧 = 𝑥 + √−1𝑦 and |𝑧| = (|𝑥|2 + |𝑦|2)1/2 . Here 𝑑𝑑 = 𝑑𝑧𝑑𝑙 denotes the Lebesgue

measure on ℝ2𝑛+1 and 𝜌(𝑑) = (|𝑧|4𝑘 + 𝑙2)1/4𝑘 . The sub elliptic gradient is the 2n

dimensional vector field given by ∇k= (𝑋1,𝑋2, … ,𝑋𝑛,𝑌,𝑌2, … ,𝑌𝑛) where 𝑋𝑗 = 𝜕𝜕𝑥𝑗

+

2𝑘𝑦𝑗|𝑧|2𝑘−2 𝜕𝜕𝜕

, and 𝑌𝑗 = 𝜕𝜕𝑦𝑗

− 2𝑘𝑥𝑗|𝑧|2𝑘−2 𝜕𝜕𝜕

, 𝑗 = 1,2, … ,𝑛, 𝑘 ≥ 1. Furthermore, we

also present its improved versions with remainder term by introducing a distance function. It

is well known that the Hardy inequality and its improved versions play important role in

partial differential equations with singular potentials [1-4]. Hence, there is a vast amount of

work in the literature related to the Hardy inequality [5-6].

Static Analysis of Euler-Bernouilli Beams Resting on Foundation of Pasternak and

Winkler using Differential Transformation Method

Sema Bodur1 , Kanat Burak Bozdoğan2 and Galip Oturanç3

Abstract. In this study, differential equations of Euler – Bernouilli beams which play

an important role in engineering problems of Winkler and Pasternak foundation have been

examined [1,3.8]. Problems of beams, plates and shells rested on top of elastic foundation are

usually extreme due to the wideness of the area of their application. Some examples of these

applications are used in railway engineering, transportation pipes for fluids and gas, coastal

and seaport structures, missilse launchers, airports, aerospace, petro-chemical industries, bio-

mechanic and dentistry. Models like Winkler and Pasternak, Vlasov, Kerr and other types

have been developed for the resting foundation of structural elements such as beams and

plates[5,7]. Until today, problem of resting beam on elastic foundation, static, strain and

vibration, has been solved by calculating finite variations, finite elements, boundary elements,

Ritz, Galerkin using differential quadrature methods [2,7]. In this study, foundation models

that belong to Winkler and Pasternak foundations have been defined by Euler – Bernouilli

beam theory and equations of these problems calculated with the help of differential

transformation method [6]. Applicability between two foundation models has been analysed.

The differential transformation method used in analysis, is a technique of transformation

which is based on expansion of Taylor Series and analytic solutions of differential equations

[4]. In this method, specific transformation rules are applied to differential equations

belonging to a certain problem and boundary conditions to transform them into simple

analytic expressions. Characteristics of the described method have been defined and their

outcome compared to analytic results with the help of Maple 13 program. Subsidence values

have been presented in the table form to show the compliance of both outcome and analytic

results.

Octonic Formulation of Dyons for Gravi-Electromagnetism

Süleyman Demir1, Murat Tanışlı2 and Mustafa Emre Kansu3

Abstract. Mathematically, octons are the eight-deimensional values composed of

scalars, vectors, pseudoscalars and pseudovectors. Mironov and Mironov [1] have proposed

this spatial object generating a closed noncommutative associative algebra and having a clear

well defined geometric interpretation. In relevant literature, octons have many physical

applications specially in electromagnetic theory [1,2], relativistic quantum mechanics [3,4]

and linear gravity [5]. In this work, a octonic model [6] is presented for the unification of

linear gravity and electromagnetism. Similarly, the generalized field equations are expressed

for the particles(dyons) carrying both electromagnetic and gravitational charges

simultaneously.

Evaluation of Soybean Hydration Model with Volume Variation

Seda Gülen1,2 and Turgut Öziş1

Abstract. Measurement of moisture during soybean hydration one of the most

important analyses on food product. During soaking, moisture profiles behave as distributed

parameter systems which predict moisture of grain over time by solution of partial differential

equations. One of the distributed parameter model in literature is known as Hsu model. Hsu

model has the advantage that it has effective diffusivity of water as its most important

parameter which depens on moisture content. Model parameters ( 0D , 1k , β ) from Hsu’s

(1983) which influence the behavior of the model and diffusivity are important.

In this study, Hsu model considered with volume variation during soybean hydration

was solved numerically. Different model parameters were obtained from literature and

optimal parameters were found at each temperature.

Mathematical Aspects of Molecular Replacement: The Structure of Chiral Space

Groups Preferred by Proteins

Sajdeh Sajjadi1 and Gregory S. Chirikjian2

Abstract. The main goal of molecular replacement in macromolecular

crystallography is to find the appropriate rigid-body transformations that situate identical

copies of model proteins in the crystallographic unit cell. The search for such transformations

can be thought of as taking place in the coset space Γ/G where Γ is the chiral space group of

the macromolecular crystal, and G is the continuous group of rigid-body motions in Euclidean

space. Though the symmorphic case was addressed earlier in [1], [2] and [3], this paper is

concerned with decomposing nonsymmorphic Γ, which then gives freedom in how to choose

fundamental domains FΓ/G. Decompositions of Γ involve the concepts of Bieberbach

subgroups and maximal symmorphic subgroups. A number of new theorems are proven, and

it is shown how these concepts are related to the preferences that proteins have for

crystallizing in different space groups.

Şerife Müge Ege1 and Emine Mısırlı2

Abstract. In this work, a new extended method is constructed to obtain the traveling

wave solutions of fractional order nonlinear equations. This method is effective, powerful and

can be used as an alternative to establish new solutions of different type of fractional

differential equations.

In this study, traveling wave solutions of the space-time fractional foam drainage

equation and the space-time fractional potential Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation are derived

and compared with the solutions which obtained by means of modified Kudryashov method.

A Nonclassical and Nonautonomous Diffusion Equation with Infinite Delay

T. Caraballo 1 and A.M. Márquez Durán 2

Abstract. In this paper we consider the following nonclassical and nonautonomous

diffusion problem:

( ]

Ω∈∞−∈−=Ω×+∞=

Ω×+∞+=∆−

∆−

,,,),,(),(),(0

),(),()()(

xtxtxtuonu

inutfugutut

tu

t

ttf∂t

t∂∂g

∂∂

where τ ∈ is the initial time, nΩ ⊂ is a smooth bounded domain, and the time-dependent

delay term f(t, ut ) represents, for instance, the influence of an external force with some kind

of delay, memory or hereditary characteristic. Here, ut denotes a segment of solution, in other

words, given a function :u →Ω× , for each ∈t

we can define the mapping ut

(s)=u(t+s), s∈ (-∞,0].

In this way, this abstract formulation allows to consider several types of delay terms in a

unifed way.

When (t) is constant, this type of nonclassical parabolic equations has been very much

studied and is often used to model physical phenomena, such as non-Newtonian flows, soil

mechanics, heat conduction, etc (see, e.g., [1], [4], [5]). However, any physical model might

experiment some kind of natural or artificial changes, therefore it needs consistence under

perturbations (see, e.g., [3]). Moreover, in this paper we are interested in the case in which

some kind of delay is taken into account in the forcing term. This is an important variant of

the nondelay case because there are many situations in which the evolution of the model is

determined not only by the present state of the system but for its past history (see, e.g., [2]).

The existence and uniqueness of solution of our problem is first proved. We also

analyze the stationary problem and, under suitable conditions, we obtain exponential decay of

the solutions of the evolutionary problem to the stationary solution.

Keywords. Nonautonomous diffusion problem, infinite delay, stationary solution,

exponential decay.

On a Spectral Expansion for Non-selfadjoint Boundary Value Problem

Volkan Ala1 and Khanlar R. Mamedov2

Abstract. Let us consider the boundary value problem generated by the differential

expression

[ )2( ) , 0,y q x y y xλ′′− + = ∈ ∞ (1)

with the boundary condition

2(0) (0) 0,y yλ′ − = (2)

where ( )q x is a complex-valued function, λ is a complex parameter.

In this work, the classification of spectrum for (1)-(2) is studied and the resolvent

operator is constructed. Eigenvalues and spectral singularities are investigated and under

certain conditions it is shown that spectral singularities have finite multiplicity. The principal

functions are defined and in terms of them the expansion formula is obtained.

Matrices with Null Columns in First Order Chemical Kinetics Mechanisms

Victor Martinez-Luaces1

Abstract. When modelling First Order Chemical Kinetics Mechanisms (F.O.C.K.M.),

the corresponding O.D.E. system associated matrix has a particular structure [1], [2]. As a

consequence of this fact, the Gershgorin Circles Theorem [3] can be applied to show that all

the eigenvalues are negative or zero. In several examples, like the conversion of grape juice

into wine and its final transformation into vinegar [1], the F.O.C.K.M. matrix has a null

column. Using an inverse modelling approach [4], [5], it can be proposed F.O.C.K.M. with

two or more final products and asociated matrices with two or more null columns. As a

consequence of this fact, the algebraic multiplicity of the null eigenvalue is greater than one

and therefore, the stability of the solutions must be studied. In this paper, F.O.C.K.M.

matrices with null columns are analyzed and the corresponding stability properties of the

solutions are studied. As an application of these results, the propagation of concentration

and/or surface concentration measurement errors are analyzed.

Stability of ODE Systems Associated to First order Chemical Kinetics Mechanisms

without Final Products

Victor Martinez-Luaces1

Abstract. First Order Chemical Kinetics Mechanisms (FOCKM) and their

corresponding O.D.E. system associated matrices were deeply studied in a book recently

published in U.S.A. [1]. In that publication was proved that all the eigenvalues have non-

positive real parts. This article can be considered as a further research on FOCKM matrices,

by analysing possible chemical mechanisms without final products. In this case the behaviour

of the solutions is absolutely different from other cases previously studied [2-3] since the

curves show oscilations which are not common in other cases where one or more final

products are present in the mechanism.

Some examples of this kind of mechanisms will be considered and the corresponding

ODE systems will be analysed from a qualitative viewpoint.

Finally, the algebraic and geometric multiplicity of the null eigenvalue in general

FOCKM matrices will be studied. As an application of algebraic theorems and chemical laws,

the stability of the solutions for these systems will be stated in all cases.

A Two-Level Method for Emulating Parameterized Dynamic Partial Differential

Equation Models

Wei Xing1, V. Triantafyllidis1, Akeel Shah1, P.B. Nair2 and N. Zabaras1

Abstract. Model order reduction (MOR) techniques (e.g., proper orthogonal

decomposition (POD) and Krylov subspaces [1]) are often employed for numerical solutions

to PDE models when the computational expense of standard schemes is prohibitive. POD uses

a reduced-basis (RB) representation of the output space based on data from selected

simulations. The numerical formulation is restricted to the truncated basis and the coefficients

in the new basis become the targets for the numerical scheme. State-of-the-art methods are

global basis POD [2] and greedy RB [3]. We extend POD approaches for applications to

nonlinear, time-dependent PDEs with multiple parameters using a novel statistical emulator

that leverages nonlinear dimensionality reduction to learn the snapshots for a new parameter

value (standard methods are either unfeasible). The method is not restricted to POD and can

be used with other methods such as balanced truncation. Examples include 2D heat

conduction-convection (via finite volume) and a 1D burgers equation (using Galerkin FEM),

demonstrating the power of the method.

Apostol-Euler polynomials E_n(x,α,λ). Also, we give different form of the analogue of the

Srivastava-Pintér addition theorem.

The Computational Complexity of Some Domination Parameters

Nader Jafari Rad 1

Abstract. A subset S ⊆ V is a dominating set of G if every vertex not in S is adjacent to

a vertex in S. The domination number of G, denoted by γ(G), is the minimum cardinality of a

dominating set of G. A dominating set S in a graph with no isolated vertex is a total

dominating set if the induced subgraph G[S] has no isolated vertex. The total domination

number of G, denoted by γt(G), is the minimum cardinality of a total dominating set of G. The

bondage number of G, denoted by b(G), is the minimum number of edges whose removal

from G results in a graph with larger domination number. Let p ≥ 2 be a positive integer. The

p-bondage number of a graph G, is the minimum number of edges whose removal from G

results in a graph with larger p-domination number. The problem of NP-completeness has

received a huge amount of attention. The question of whether or not NP-complete problems

are intractable is one of the foremost problems, and determining whether or not a problem is

NP-complete plays an important role. Several parameters in the theory of domination have

been proved to be NP-complete, see for example [3, 4]. In this talk we study the complexity

issue of several parameters related to domination number and show that the decision problems

for these problems are NP-complete.

Anti-Kahler-Codazzi Structures on Walker Manifolds

Arif Salimov1 and Sibel Turanlı2

Abstract. Theory of structures on manifolds is the one of the most interesting subjects

of modern differential geometry. One of these subjects is the complex structures. The

differential geometric aspects of manifolds which have such structures are very large and very

efficient areas for pseudo-Riemannian geometry.

Walker manifold is the triple in the form of (𝑀,𝑔,𝐷) , where M represents 4-

dimensional manifold, g represents indefinite metric and D the 2-dimensional parallel null

distribution. Canonical forms of such metrics were achieved by Walker (1950). It’s well

known that g has components

𝑔 = 0 0 1 00 0 0 11 0 𝑎 𝑐0 1 𝑐 𝑏

with respect to the adapted Walker coordinates ( 𝑥1, 𝑥2, 𝑥3, 𝑥4 ), where 𝑎, 𝑏 and 𝑐 are

functions of adapted coordinates.

The most intensive studies on Walker manifold were begun after 2004. Matsushita

(2004) built almost complex structures appropriate with Walker 4-manifolds. Chaichi (2005)

researched curvature features of 4-dimensional Walker metrics. Davidov (2006) examined

Almost Kahler Walker 4-manifolds and (2007) Hermitian Walker 4- manifolds, Salimov

(2010) analysed some features of Norden Walker metrics.

In this study, the purpose is introducing anti-Kahler-Codazzi manifolds which are new

class of the integrable almost anti-Hermitian manifolds and to investigate these structures on

Walker 4-manifolds.

Keywords. Walker Manifold, Anti-Kahler-Codazzi and Anti-Kahler Manifolds.

Metallic Shaped Hypersurfaces in Lorentzian Space Forms

Cihan Özgür1 and Nihal Yılmaz Özgür2

Abstract. In [4], the present authors define the notion of a metallic shaped

hypersurface and give the classification of these kinds of hypersurfaces in real space forms. In

[5], Yang and Fu classified golden shaped hypersurfaces in Lorentzian space forms. In the

present study as a generalization of the results given in [5], we classify metallic shaped

hypersurfaces in Lorentzian space forms.

Keywords. Lorentzian Space Form, Metallic Shaped Hypersurface.

Characterization of Null Scrolls in ℝ𝑣𝑚+𝑛

Gül Güner1 and F. Nejat Ekmekci2

Abstract. In this work, we expand the theory of null scrolls to the semi Riemannian manifolds with higher index. We construct a null scroll by

𝑌𝑀(𝑢,𝜃, 𝑡) = 𝑋(𝑢) + 𝑡(𝑛𝑇 + 𝑛𝑆)(𝑢), 𝑡 ∈ ℝ.

In our construction method, we assume the lightlike submanifold 𝑋(𝑈) = 𝑀 in ℝ𝑣𝑚+𝑛

as the base curve and a lightlike normal vector field in its transversal bundle as the directrix of

the null scroll. Note that this definition is the most general form of null scrolls so far. We also

give some examples.

Fundamental Form.

their Bishop curvatures. Further, we obtain some results of T-constant and N-constant type

non-null curves in Minkowski 3-space 31E .

Muradiye Çimdiker1, Yasin Ünlütürk2 and Cumali Ekici3

Abstract. In this work, first, we obtain Steiner rotation vector of parallel ruled

surfaces with Darboux frame. Then, by using this rotation vector, we compute pitch length

and pitch angle of parallel ruled surfaces with Darboux frame. Also, we have some relations

among integral invariants of the surface in 𝐸3.

Keywords. Parallel Ruled Surface, Darboux Frame, Pitch Length, Pitch Angle.

Directional Bertrand Curves

Mustafa Dede1 and Cumali Ekici2

Abstract. It is well known that a characteristic property of the Bertrand curve which

asserts the existence of a linear relation between curvature and torsion. In this paper, we

propose a new method for generating Bertrand curves, which avoids the basic restrictions.

Our main result is that every space curve is a directional Bertrand curve with infinite

directional Bertrand mates.

Directional Tubular Surfaces

Mustafa Dede1, Cumali Ekici2 and Hatice Tozak2

Abstract. In this paper, we introduce a new version of tubular surfaces. We first

define a new adapted frame along a space curve, and denote this the q-frame. We then reveal

the relationship between the Frenet frame and the q-frame. We give a parametric

representation of a directional tubular surface using the q-frame. Finally, some comparative

examples are shown to confirm the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Self-Duality Operator on 2-Forms

Nedim Değirmenci1 and Hatice Zeybek2

Abstract. It is well known that hodge-duality operator and self-duality concept of a 2-

form have great importance in both mathematics and physics [1], [2]. In this work we define a

duality operator 𝑇𝜑 on the space of 2-forms Ω2(𝑅𝑛) for 𝑛 > 4, where 𝜑 is a special (𝑛 − 4) −

form on 𝑅𝑛. We prove that 𝑇𝜑 is symmetric, hence have real eigenvalues. We define self-dual

and anti-self-dual 2-forms over 𝑅𝑛 by using the eigenvalues of 𝑇𝜑. We give some explicit

constructions in dimensions 𝑛 = 5, 6, 7 and 8.

On Z-Projective Change of Kropina Spaces

Salim Ceyhan1 and Gülçin Çivi2

Abstract. In this paper, we consider the projective change of metrics of

the Kropina space and the Finsler space , respectively. It is known that The Douglas

and the Weyl Curvature tensors remain invariant under the projective change of the Finsler

metrics. Moreover, h-curvature tensor in the Berwald connection is invariant under the a

special projective change named as Z-projective change. In [1] M. Fukui and T. Yamada

studied in the projective change between two Finsler spaces. Then, in [2], B.D. Kim and H.Y.

Park proved that if a symmetric space remains to be symmetric one under the Z-projective

change then the space is of zero curvature.

In present paper, we first investigated in the quantities which are invariant under the Z-

projective change between two Finsler spaces. Then, we obtained the necessary and sufficient

conditions for a projective change between a Kropina space and a

Finsler space to be a Z-projective change.

Seiberg-Witten Equations on 8-Dimensional Manifolds

Serhan Eker1 and Nedim Değirmenci2

Abstract. Seiberg – Witten equations, which are used to analyze the structure of the

4 −dimensional manifolds, consist of two equations [2], [4], [7]. The first of these equations

is called Dirac equation and the latter is called Curvature equation. In higher dimensions, to

decribe the Curvature equation, generalized self-duality concept of a 2 form is needed.

Seiberg – Witten equations on 8 −dimensional manifolds, with Spin(7) structure were defined

in [1], [3] and also with SU(4) structure were defined in [5], [6]. In these works the self –

dual part is the Λ7 which is the first part of the decomposition of 2 − form spaces Λ2(𝑀) =

Λ7 ⊕ Λ21. In this work, the Curvature equation on 8 −dimensional manifolds is defined by

using the second part Λ21. We write down explicit form of these equations on 𝑀 = ℝ8 and

give some non− trivial solution.

An Examination on the Frenet Ruled Surfaces along the Bertrand Pairs Α and Α∗,

according to Their Normal Vector Fields in Euclidean 3-Space

Şeyda Kılıçoğlu1, Süleyman Şenyurt2 and H. Hilmi Hacısalihoğlu3

Abstract. In this paper we consider eight special Frenet ruled surfaces along to the

Bertrand pairs α∗, α respectively. First we find the excplit equations of Frenet ruled

surfaces along the Bertrand curve α, later we find the excplit equations of Frenet ruled

surfaces along its Bertrand mate α∗ in terms of the Frenet apparatus of its Bertrand curve α.

Further, normal vector fields of these Frenet ruled surfaces have been calculated in terms of

the Frenet apparatus of its Bertrand curve α too.

Finally we find a matrix which give us all sixteen positions of Normal vector fields of

eight Frenet ruled surfaces. Using that matrix we can examine positions, one by one, each pair

of Frenet ruled surfaces, in terms of Frenet apparatus of Bertrand curve α. For example one of

corallaries gives us which Frenet ruled surface are perpendicular.

On the Metrics of Some Archimedean And Catalan Solids

Zeynep Can1 and Zeynep Çolak2

Abstract. Polyhedrons are exteremely important solids in 3 – dimensional analytical

space when they are convex. Some mathematicians have been studied on polyhedra and

improved Minkowski Geometry releated with them.

If a polyhedron has congruent faces which are regular polygons and same number of

faces intersect at each vertices then this polyhedron is a regular polyhedron, and they are only

five (Platonic Solids). If a polyhedron has congruent vertices and faces are regular polygons

then it is called semi–regular polyhedron, and they are thirteen (Archimedean Solids). Duals

of Archimedean solids are called Catalan Solids. Faces of a catalan solid are one kind of

polygon which are not regular.

Unit spheres of Minkowski geometries are some general, symmetric convex sets and

there is an important relation between these sets and metrics ([6]). In the previous studies it

has been seen that there are some metrics which unit spheres are some of the mentioned solids

([3],[4],[8]). Finding the unit sphere of a known metric depends on some basic calculations.

So, naturally a question on the contrary can be asked, “Is it possible to find the metric which

unit sphere is a known polyhedron?”.

In this study we introduce two new metrics which unit spheres are a Catalan solid

Disdyakis Triacontahedron and an Archimedean solid Truncated Octahedron. Also we will

give a family of metrics and show that the spheres of the 3 – dimensional analytical space

covered by these metrics are some well – known polyhedra.

Keywords. Archimedean Solids, Catalan Solids, Metric, Disdyakis Triacontahedron,

Truncated Octahedron, Chinese Checkers Metric.

Tetrakis Hexahedron Space Isometry Group

Zeynep Çolak1 and Zeynep Can2

Abstract. There are many thinkers that worked on polyhedra among the ancient

Greeks. Early civilizations worked out mathematics as problems and their solutions.

Polyhedra have interesting symmetries. Therefore they have attracted the attention of

scientists and artists from past to present. Thus polyhedra are discussed in a lot of scientific

and artistic works. There are only five regular convex polyhedra known as the platonic solids.

Semi-regular convex polyhedron which are composed of two or more types of regular

polygons meeting in identical vertices are called Archimedean solids. The duals of the

Archimedean solids are known as the Catalan solids.

Three essential methods for geometric investigations; synthetic, metric and group

approach. The group approach takes isometry groups of a geometry and convex sets plays an

substantial role in indication of the group of isometries of geometries. Those properties are

invariant under the group of motions and geometry studies those properties.

Some mathematicians have studied isometry groups of Taxicab space, Maximum

space and Chinese Checker space in three dimensional space ([2], [1], [4]). We worked on

isometry groups of Tetrakis Hexahedron which is a Catalan solid. In this study we show that

the group of isometries of the 3-dimensional space with respect to Tetrakis Hexahedron

metric is the semi-direct product of octahedral group Oh and T(3), where Oh is the

(Euclidean) symmetry group of the octahedron and T(3) is the group of all translations of the

3-dimensional space.

Conformal Weyl-Euler-Lagrange Equations on Lorentzian Trans

and Para Sasakian Manifolds

Zeki Kasap1

Abstract. Contact geometry deals with certain manifolds of odd dimension. It is close

to symplectic geometry and like the latter it is originated in questions of classical mechanics.

Contact geometry can be considered as symplectic geometry such that it has broad

applications in physics, geometrical optics, classical mechanics, analytical mechanics,

mechanical systems, thermodynamics, geometric quantization and applied mathematics such

as control theory. Locally, every symplectic manifold admits a Kähler structure. Every Kähler

manifold has a symplectic manifold. Kähler manifolds are of tremendous importance in

modern physics. Sasakian manifolds are an analog one dimensional of Kähler manifolds. It is

well known that one way of solving problems in classical mechanics use the Euler-Lagrange

equations. Weyl o¤ered a conformal structure and this structure was transferred to the

mechanical systems. In this study, Weyl-Euler-Lagrange equations as representing the motion

of the body were found on Sasakian manifolds. Also, these solution of differential equations

are solved by symbolic computation program.

Euler-Lagrange Equations on Almost Paracontact Metric Manifolds

Zeki Kasap1

Abstract. Almost paracontact metric manifolds are the famous examples of almost

para-CR manifolds. Symplectic geometry has its origins in the Lagrangian formulation of

classical mechanics such that the phase space of certain classical systems takes on the

structure of a symplectic manifold. It is well known that a preferred method to solve the

problems of classical mechanics is to with the Euler-Lagrange equations. Classical field

theory uses a simple solution method of Euler-Lagrangian dynamics. This theory was

extended to time-dependent classical mechanics. In this study, Euler-Lagrange equations, as

representing the orbits of moving objects in this space that its are geodesic modeling, found

on Lorentzian trans and para Sasakian manifolds. Also, these solutions of differential

equations solved by symbolic computation program.

Examining Pre-Service Mathematics Teachers’ Math Literacy And Their Attitudes

Towards Mathematics Education Courses

Dilek Çağırgan Gülten1

Abstract. Teachers’ attitudes towards mathematics and mathematics teaching

influence students’ attitudes. One needs to have knowledge of mathematics and pedagogical

knowledge in mathematics in order to teach mathematics. Teachers need to have not only

accurate knowledge of concepts and operations but also they need to understand the

connections between mathematical thoughts. In this context, it is of essence for mathematics

teachers to become math literates.

An individual needs to study in the faculty of education so as to be a mathematics

teacher. Therefore, pre-service teachers should be taught mathematics at the faculties of

education in the way they are asked to teach it. Starting from this point, the aim of this study

is to examine pre-service mathematics teachers’ mathematical literacy and their attitudes

towards mathematics education courses. The research study was conducted with 181 pre-

service teachers enrolled in the program of Primary Mathematics Education at İstanbul

University.

The research data were collected using the “Math Literacy Self-Efficacy Scale”

developed by Özgen and Bindak (2008) and the “Attitude Scale for Mathematics Education

Courses” developed by Turanlı, Türker, and Keçeli (2008). The study was carried out

considering the variables of grade, order of preference, and reason for preference and the

relationship between mathematical literacy and the attitude towards mathematics education

courses was determined. Some suggestions were made for further research and researchers in

line with the findings.

Keywords. Mathematics Education Courses, Attitude, Mathematical Literacy.

The Inclusion of Geometric Thinking in Elementary School Mathematics Textbooks

Deniz Özen1 and Nilüfer Yavuzsoy Köse2

Abstract. Geometric thinking includes geometry-specific ideas which individuals may

encounter in their daily lives as well as in their learning process and components that create

these ideas. The Model of Geometric Habits of Mind suggested by Driscoll, Wing DiMatteo,

Nikula and Egan (2007) describes geometric thinking with four basic geometric habits of

mind, which are “reasoning with relationships”, "generalizing geometric ideas", "investigating

invariants" and "balancing exploration and reflection" [1].

In elementary school mathematics curriculum it is aimed to foster geometric thinking,

nevertheless to enhance geometric thinking becomes difficult if the problems and activities in

the textbooks do not support these geometric habits of mind. Textbooks are of great

importance in the teaching process considering that geometric thinking is supported with

geometric habits of mind and these habits are acquired through problems and activities. In this

study it is aimed to determine to what extent mathematics textbooks foster geometric thinking

within the framework of Geometric Habits of Mind. Accordingly, four mathematics textbooks

being taught in 5, 6, 7 and 8th grades of elementary school were examined and geometry

problems and activities in these textbooks were analyzed based on the theoretical framework

of Geometric Habits of Mind.

Document analysis which is a qualitative research method has been carried out in data

analysis process. In this process, subjects related to geometry learning were determined

primarily, and then geometry activities and problems were categorized with reference to the

geometric habits of mind for each grade level. For the reliability of the study, activities and

problems were coded separately by two researchers based on geometric habits of mind

framework. The differences between coders have been resolved through discussions and of

compromises of the researchers.

Considering the necessity of supporting of geometric thinking, importance of gaining

geometric habits of mind for the students and the inclusion of geometric thinking in the

textbooks, it is thought that this study will bring light for further studies.

Keywords. Geometric Thinking, Geometric Habits of Mind, Mathematics Textbooks

Examination of 6th

Students’ Quantitative Reasoning Skills and Developments

in Their Problem Solving Process

Dilek Tanışlı1 and Mehmet Dur2

Abstract. The purpose of this research is to examine middle school grade 6 students’

quantitative reasoning skills and developments in their problem solving process. In this

research, qualitative research methods were adopted for data collection, analysis and

interpretation. In this context, teaching experiment model was used. The implementations of

the research were carried out with 4 sixth grade students, two girls and two boys in public

school. During the entire teaching experiment in which it was aimed to identify students’

quantitative reasoning skills and observe their developments, clinical interviews, worksheets,

clinical interviews with videotapes of teaching process, student journals, and researcher

journals were used as data collection tools, and a thematic analysis was used for data analysis.

As results of the research, it was observed that students who had low quantitative

reasoning skills in pre-interviews improved their quantitative reasoning skills notably in post-

interviews as a result of the teaching experiment. It was identified that students had higher

successes in understanding the problems, selecting appropriate strategies to the problem

situation, carrying out the selected strategy and evaluating stages after the teaching

experiment. Also, it was observed that using diagrams, tables, and visual representations

which take efficient roles during quantitative reasoning became as a habit after the teaching

experiment.. Besides, it was observed that the development of students' quantitative reasoning

contributed to their algebraic development and achievement levels in mathematics.

The Investigation of Using Mathematical Language of 7th Graders

When Identifying Circle and It’s Elements

Esra Akarsu1 and Süha Yılmaz2

Abstract: Mathematical language is the combination of the whole rules which are

used together with mathematical concepts, operations and symbols that have the property of

expressing scientific thoughts easily [1]. Usage of correct branch language is really important

to eliminate the misconceptions which occur in students’ minds [2].

Through this research it is aimed to observe 7th grade students’ ability of using

mathematical language when identifying circle and it’s elements. The using of mathematical

language skills of students identifying circle and it’s elements when given in scenario and

when their names were given were compared. The sample of this study consists of 138

seventh graders selected from several primary schools located in Manisa. A scenario which

consists of 7 questions about identifying circle and it’s elements (center, radius, diameter,

secant, chord and tangent ) was prepared by the researchers and students were asked to

answer these questions. Furthermore, students were asked to identify circle and it’s elements

when their names were given. The mathematical language skills of the students were

examined in terms of their ability to identify visually and verbally. It was concluded that the

mathematical language skills of students identifying circle and it’s elements when given in

scenario need to be developed. Also, students’ mathematical language skills identifying them

when their names were given are sufficient. It was observed that students have most difficulty

in defining tangent.

Linear Algebra with SAGE

Erdal Özüsağlam 1

Abstract. Usage of Mathematical software has been increasing constantly since

computers are used in education. Sage, Open source Software, is a powerful system for

studying and exploring many different areas of mathematics.

Teachers talk about linear algebra using many linear text books in classroom.

However, the usage of indispensable teaching method for some issues in linear algebra that is

difficult to teach. Therefore, I introduce the principles of working process of Sage and give

some examples about basic linear algebra including matrices, determinants.

Views of High School Mathematics Teachers and Students on Computer-Assisted

Mathematics Instruction: Mathematica Case

Mehmet Alper Ardıç1 and Tevfik İşleyen2

Abstract. In this study, high school mathematics teachers, who did not know about

computer-assisted mathematics instruction before, were trained on it in the first place, and

they were enabled to use Mathematica in their classes for the graphics of quadratic functions

(parabola). Obtained through the semi-structured interview, this study then focuses on the

views of both teachers and students about computer-assisted mathematics instruction and

about Mathematica, a computer algebra system (CAS) benefited during the process. The

interview data were examined with the descriptive analysis and content analysis methods to

get some codes and themes about the subject. The results show that all the teachers found

computer-assisted mathematics instruction interesting on the students’ part just as the students

did. While all the students wanted to benefit from computer-assisted mathematics instruction

in mathematics and geometry classes, most of the students (67%) wanted to benefit from

computer-assisted instruction in different classes as well. It is seen that students did not have

any problem with Mathematica, used during the activities of computer-assisted mathematics

instruction. However, it is also seen that one of the teachers and of the students believed that

the constant application of computer-assisted mathematics instruction in classes would hinder

their studies on university entrance exam.

Mental Components of Mathematical Literacy Success of Secondary School Students

Murat Altun1 and Işıl Bozkurt2

Abstract. Mathematical Literacy (ML) concept and to what extent mathematics

curriculum develops it have been frequently argued. With the participations of students [1],

teacher candidates [2] and teachers to examine the levels of ML, various studies have been

conducted from different viewpoints such as mental processes, subject fields, mathematical

skill levels etc., and some comparisons through PISA results related to ML took place[3].

Differently from those studies, in this study, a Mathematical Literacy Test (MLT) which

includes a total of 15 questions selected from different topic fields has been applied to 221

secondary students most of whom are from eight grade. Data tables were formed by

specifying the grades that students got for each question and factor analysis was applied to the

data. The factors that account for ML success were named as (i) skill to make algorithmic

operations, (ii) mathematical proposal development, (iii) justification of mathematical result

(iv)understanding and interpretation of the mathematical content and (v) establishing

relationships between different data sets and interpretation. It is expected that the results of

this study will contribute to curriculum development and organization of the instructional

activities.

The Competence of Students in Understanding the Properties of a Function

from Its Graph

Nevin Mahir1

Abstract. Visualization is very important in helping students to understand functions

and their properties. The graph of a function, as the picture of a function, can be considered a

visual aid while examining the function and its properties. Most of the properties of a function

can be determined with the help of its graph. Therefore, it is important for students of

mathematics to extract some of the properties of a function such as limit, continuity,

derivative, growth and concavity from its graph. In this study, I investigated the competence

of students who have taken Calculus I-II courses in understanding the properties of a function

from its graph. To this purpose, an examination was given to science and engineering students

at a Turkish university. The results showed that the students were unable to extract the

properties related to the function from its graph.

Reasoning in Mathematics Education

Nilüfer Yavuzsoy Köse1

Abstract. One of the most important objectives of mathematics teaching is to have

students believe they can do mathematics. It will be quite important for the development of

students’ mathematical thinking if they can defend their thoughts with appropriate arguments,

make logical deductions, and share and discuss using an appropriate language. The most basic

component for this development is mathematical reasoning.

Mathematical reasoning is defined as the process of gaining new information by using

thinking techniques (induction, deduction, comparison, generalization and so on) and tools

specific to mathematics (symbols, definitions, relationships and so on) [1]. In other words,

mathematical reasoning is a process in which individuals convince themselves and others to

confirm a certain assumption and in which they develop such ways of thinking or argument as

solving a problem or gathering various thoughts [2]. In national and international literature,

there are several terms used in reasoning studies in relation to mathematical reasoning such as

developing assumptions, mathematical explanations, justification, verification, mathematical

arguments, mathematical exploration and generalization, and these terms are associated with

types of reasoning. Then, what associations can be established between these terms and

approaches to reasoning? The answers to this question are likely to vary depending on

learners’ level of education and their age, their individual characteristics and attitudes, the

learning environment, the context/subject, the mathematics instructor’s theoretical

perspective, and on the educational policies according to which curricula and course books

are developed. In line with this, the present study discusses the place of mathematical

reasoning in elementary school mathematics teaching and provides a synthesis by examining

the current theoretical structures.

Concept Association of Prospective Elementary and Secondary Mathematics Teachers

Şüheda Güray1, Şeyda Kılıçoğlu 2 and Merve Koştur 3

Abstract. Concept knowledge competency of prospective teachers is in the scope of

reasearchers in mathematics education (Ball, 1991; Even, 1993; Wilson, Shulman & Richert,

1987). While investigating concept knowledge, it is important to inquire into the relationship

of the concepts with each other and defining the concepts interrelatedly (Adams, T. L., 2012;

Ball, 1990). In the present study, concept associations of prospective elementary and

secondary mathematics teachers were investigated. In the study, the participants were 60

prospective elementary mathematics teachers in 1st and 4th grades and 47 prospective

secondary mathematics teachers in 1st, 3rd and 4th grades at a university in Turkey. The

definitions for 9 concepts gathered from the prospective teachers were grouped in two as “full

definition” and “incomplete definition”. Afterwards, concepts were grouped in two and

concept associations of every prospective teacher were analyzed via chi square analysis. As a

result, regardless of grade differences, the dependence and independence of concepts with

each other were investigated and reported in the study.

Investigating the Concept Knowledge of Prospective Elementary and Secondary

Mathematics Teachers

Şeyda Kılıçoğlu1, Şüheda Güray2 and Merve Koştur3

Abstract. Concept knowledge competency of prospective teachers is in the scope of

researchers in mathematics education (Ball, 1991; Even, 1993; Wilson, Shulman & Richert,

1987). In recent years, concept knowledge has been analyzed qualitatively and investigated

deeply by focusing on knowledge and definition (Ball, 1988, 1991; Even, 1990; Lienhardt &

Smith; 1985; Shulman, 1986; Wilson et al., 1987). In defining the concepts, the correct use of

mathematical language and supporting the definition by multiple representations are of

importance. In this regard, definitions of the total of 107 prospective elementary and

secondary mathematics teachers for selected mathematics concepts were investigated. In the

study, prospective teachers were asked to define 9 concepts selected among fundamental

mathematics concepts in the literature. By using content analysis, the definitions were coded

with 5 themes as “complete definition”, “exampling”, “making a drawing”, and “empty”. The

results were reported by comparing concept knowledge of elementary and secondary

mathematics education program students according to grade and program differences. In

addition, the data gathered from the participants via semi structured interviews were analyzed

and probable reasons of common misconceptions and incomplete definitions were explained.

Key words: Mathematical Concept Knowledge, Concept Associations, Mathematics

Educations, Prospective Teachers.

Asymptotic Results for a Semi-Markovian Random Walk with Generalized Beta

Interferences

Cihan Aksop1 and Tahir Khaniyev2,3

Abstract. In this study, a semi-Markovian random walk with interferences distributed

on the interval [𝑠, 𝑆] is investigated. Asymptotic expansions for the moments of this process

are obtained as a function of moments of ladder heights and moments of the interferences,

when the interferences have a generalized beta distribution and 𝛾 ≡ 𝑆 − 𝑠 → ∞. Moreover,

accuracy of the proposed asymptotic expansions is examined with a Monte Carlo simulation

method.

A Queueing System Equipped with Two Components Subject to Random Failures and

Heterogeneous General Service with Fluctuating Rates Depending on State of the

Components

Kailash C. Madan1

Abstract. We study a batch arrival queueing system with a single server equipped

with two components 1C and 2C both subject to random failures with different failure rates.

There are two repair facilities, one each for the two components. The system works in full

efficiency as long as both components are in working state. However, the system works in

reduced efficiency if 2C is in the failed state, it works in low efficiency if 1C is in the failed

state and the system is completely down if both 1C and 2C are in the failed state. The

system provides service to customers with different general service times with different

service rates depending on the fluctuations in the system efficiency. Steady state

probability generating functions are obtained for various states of the system and results for

some particular cases have been derived.

Higher-Order Adjustments of the Signed Scoring Rule Root Statistic

Laura Ventura1, V. Mameli and M. Musio2

Abstract. Proper scoring rules (see e.g. Parry et al., 2012), different from the log-

score, can be used as an alternative to the full likelihood, when the aim is to increase the

robustness or to simplify computations. Proper scoring rule inference is usually based on the

first-order approximations to the distribution of the scoring rule estimator or of the scoring

rule ratio test statistic. However, several examples (see Dawid et al., 2015, Mameli and

Ventura, 2015) illustrate the inaccuracy of first-order methods, even in models with a scalar

parameter, when the sample size is small or moderate. Analytical higher-order asymptotic

expansions for proper scoring rules, generalizing results for likelihood quantities but allowing

for the failure of the information identity, have been discussed in Mameli and Ventura (2015).

However, the calculation of the quantities involved in the analytical adjustments of the signed

and signed profile scoring rule root statistic is cumbersome, even for simple models. The aim

of this work is to discuss the alternative approach to higher-order adjustments, based on a

parametric bootstrap. In particular, focus is on the signed profile scoring rule root statistic.

A Comparison of Information Criteria in Clustering based on Mixture of Multivariate

Normal Distributions

Serkan Akoğul1 and Murat Erişoğlu2

Abstract. Clustering analysis based on mixture of multivariate normal distributions is

commonly used in the clustering of multidimensional data sets which are unknown natural

cluster structure. The most important problems are to choose the number of components and

to identify the structure of variance-covariance matrix in the clustering based on modelling

with multivariate normal distributions of each cluster (components). In this study, the

efficiency of information criterion which is commonly used in the model selection is

examined. The effectiveness of information criteria has been determined according to the

The Performance of the Optimal Extended Balanced Loss Function Estimators

and Predictors

Selahattin Kaçıranlar 1 and Issam Dawoud 2

Abstract. The optimal heterogeneous, homogenous and homogenous unbiased

estimators of the mean square error (MSE) are introduced and discussed by many authors but

the goodness of fitted model criterion is quite often ignored which is used to investigate the

performance of estimators. Therefore, Shalabh et al. (2009) proposed the extended balanced

loss function (EBLF) in which the MSE, the Zellner’s balanced loss function and the

predictive loss function are just special cases of it. So, we derive the optimal heterogeneous,

homogenous and homogenous unbiased estimators of the EBLF and discuss the performances

of these estimators and their predictors.

Stein-Rule Restricted Ridge Regression Estimator

Sadullah Sakallıoğlu1 and Selahattin Kaçıranlar 2

Abstract. Stein-rule and ridge estimators have been extensively used for estimating

the coefficient vector in a regression model. These estimators lead to an improvement in the

risk properties of the ordinary least squares (OLS) estimator. Instead of using one or the other

estimator, both of them may be appropriately combined. We introduce an alternative

estimator that combines the approaches followed in obtaining the restricted Stein-rule

estimation and the ridge regression estimation. A Monte Carlo simulation is performed to

compare the behavior of the proposed estimator.

Estimator; Quadratic Loss Function.

On the Stationary Characteristics of a Renewal Reward Processes

with Generalized Reflecting Barrier

Tahir Khaniyev 1, Basak Gever 1 and Zulfiyya Mammadova 2

Abstract. In this study, a semi–Markovian renewal–reward process with generalized

reflecting barrier is investigated and the ergodicity of the process is proved under some weak

conditions. Next, in general case, the explicit form of the first four moments for the ergodic

distribution is found and using these expressions, the asymptotic expansions for the ergodic

moments are obtained. To give these results, construct the considered process mathematically.

The independent and identically distributed initial random pairs (ξn,ηn), n = 1,2,3, …

defined on a same probability space (Ω,ℱ,𝑃) . Moreover, the positive–valued random

variables 𝜉𝑛 and 𝜂𝑛 are mutually independent. Their distribution functions are notated as

follows:

Φ(𝑡) = 𝑃ξn ≤ 𝑡; F(𝑥) = 𝑃ηn ≤ 𝑥; 𝑛 = 1,2, … ; 𝑥, 𝑡 ≥ 0.

Using the initial random pairs, construct the following renewal sequences 𝑇𝑛 and 𝑆𝑛:

T0 = S0; Tn = ξi

n

i=1

; Sn = ηi

n

i=1

; 𝑛 = 1,2, …

With the help of the renewal sequence 𝑆𝑛, the following integer – valued random variables

are defined:

𝑁0 = 0; 𝜁0 = 𝑧 ≥ 0 ; 𝑁1 ≡ 𝑁1(𝜆𝑧) = inf𝑘 ≥ 1: 𝜆𝑧 − 𝑆𝑘 < 0 ;

𝑁𝑛 ≡ 𝑁𝑛(𝜆𝜁𝑛−1) = inf𝑘 ≥ 𝑁𝑛−1 + 1: 𝜆𝜁𝑛−1 − 𝑆𝑘 − 𝑆𝑁𝑛−1 < 0 ;

𝜁𝑛 ≡ 𝜁𝑛(𝜆𝜁𝑛−1) = 𝜆𝜁𝑛−1 − 𝑆𝑁𝑛 − 𝑆𝑁𝑛−1; 𝑛 = 1,2, …

Here, 𝜆 ≥ 1 is an arbitrary positive constant. By means of Nn , define the sequence

𝜏𝑛, 𝑛 = 1,2, … as follows:

𝜏0 ≡ 0; 𝜏1 ≡ 𝜏1(𝜆𝑧) = ξi

N1

i=1

; 𝜏2 = ξi

N2

i=1

; … ; 𝜏𝑛 = ξi

Nn

i=1

;𝑛 = 1,2, …

Moreover, define 𝜈(𝑡) = min𝑛 ≥ 1: Tn > 𝑡 , 𝑡 > 0 . Now, the considered process can be

constructed mathematically as follows:

X(𝑡) = 𝜆ζn − 𝑆𝜈(𝑡)−1 − 𝑆Nn; ∀ 𝜏𝑛 ≤ 𝑡 < 𝜏𝑛+1; 𝑛 = 1,2, …

The defined process X(𝑡) is called as “Renewal reward process with generalized reflecting

barrier”. The aim of this study is to investigate the ergodic moments of the considered

process. Define the following notations to give the main result of this study.

mn ≡ E(η1n); E(Xn) = limt→∞

E(X(t)n) ; n = 1,2, …

Now, present the main result of the study as follows:

Theorem. Assume that the initial random variables ξn and ηn, n = 1,2, … are satisfied the

following supplementary conditions:

i) 0 < E(ξ1) < ∞; ii) E(η1) > 0; iii) E(η1n+2) < ∞;

iv) η1, is a non – arithmetic random variable.

Then, the following asymptotic expansions can be written for the nth order moment for the

ergodic moments of the process 𝑋(𝑡), when 𝜆 → ∞:

E(Xn) =2mn+2

(n + 1)(n + 2)m2λn + Bnλn−1 + Cnλn−2 + o(λn−2);𝑛 = 1,2, …

Here, the coefficient Bn and Cn are indicated in the exclusive version of the study.

Aynur Keskin Kaymakci1

Abstract. In this talk, first of all we introduce a weaker form of R-maps which is

called almost δ-b-continuity. Then, we investigate and obtain its some properties and

characterizations. Finally, we show that ƒ: (X,τ) → (Y,ϕ) is almost δ-b-continuous if and

only if ƒ: (X, τs) → (Y, ϕs ) is b-continuous, where τs and ϕs are the semi-regularizations of

τ and ϕ, respectively.

Cardinal invariants of the Vietoris Topology on the Space of Minimal CUSCO Maps

Branislav Novotný1 and Ľubica Holá2

Abstract. Let X be a topological space. Among upper semicontinuous multifunctions

with values in real numbers, there is an important class, namely CUSCO maps; that is upper

semi-continuous and non-empty, compact and convex valued maps. Identifying

multifunctions with their graphs, we can equip the space of CUSCO maps with the Vietoris

topology inherited from the space of subsets of X × R.

Let MC(X) be the space of all minimal CUSCO maps on X; minimal with respect to

the ordering of their graphs by ⊆. W e investigate cardinal invariants and related properties on

this space equipped with the Vietoris topology depending on the properties of X.

Abstract. In this study, we research digital versions of some concepts of algebraic

topology [1]. We present some general notions of digital images and compute simplicial

cohomology groups of a connected sum of minimal simple closed surfaces [2]. We define a

simplicial cup product for digital images and use it to establish ring structure of digital

cohomology [3]. We give an example about computing the cohomology ring of a connected

sum of a minimal simple closed surface. Then we present algebra structures of digital

cohomology with the cup product. Finally, we show that ),(, GXH k∗ is a graded G-algebra

with the cup product.

Abstract. Fixed point theory is in relationship with several areas of mathematics such

as mathematical analysis, general topology and functional analysis. There are various

applications of fixed point theory in mathematics, game theory, computer science,

engineering, image processing. Fixed point theorems are used to solve some problems in

mathematics and engineering. In this study, we construct the Notion of the digital homotopy

fixed point property. Some results regarding digital retractions and the fixed point property

are given. We prove that the digital homotopy fixed point property is a topological invariant.

Finally we give a nice application of the digital homotopy fixed point theory to digital images.

Some Classes of Functions Between Continuous and Quasicontinuous Functions

Ján Borsík1

Abstract. A real function f is quasicontinuous at a point x if for every positive ε

and for every neighbourhood U of x there is an open nonempty subset G of U such that |f(y)-

f(x)|<ε for each y from G. A function f is quasicontinuous if it is such at each point.

Quasicontinuous functions need not be measurable. Further, the set of all points of

discontinuity of a quasicontinuous function is of first category, however it need not be of

mneasure zero. In the talk, we will investigate classes of functions between continuous and

quasicontinuous functions for which the set of discontinuity points is of measure zero or even

σ-porous.

HOMFLY Polynomials of Torus Links as Generalized Fibonacci Polynomials

Kemal Taşköprü1 and İsmet Altıntaş2

Abstract. The focus of this paper is to study the HOMFLY polynomial of (2,n)-torus

link as a generalized Fibonacci polynomial. For this purpose, we first introduce a form of

generalized Fibonacci and Lucas polynomials and provide their some fundamental properties.

We define the HOMFLY polynomials of (2,n)-torus link with a way similar to our generalized

Fibonacci polynomials and provide its fundamental properties. We also show that the

HOMFLY polynomials of (2,n)-torus link can be obtained from its Alexander-Conway

polynomial or the classical Fibonacci polynomial. We finally give the matrix representations

and prove important identities, which are similar to the Fibonacci identities, for the our

generalized Fibonacci polynomial and the HOMFLY polynomial of (2,n)-torus link.

Minimal Usco and Minimal Cusco Maps and Compactness

Ľubica Holá1 and Dušan Holý2

Abstract. We prove Ascoli-type theorems for the space of rninimal usco and minimal

cusco maps. Let X be a locally cornpact space, (Y, d) be a metric space and MU (X, Y) be the

space of minimal usco maps frorn X to Y. The family Ɛ, subset of MU(X,Y) is compact in

MU(X,Y) equipped with tlie topology ΤUC of uniforrn convergence on cornpact sets if and only

if Ɛ is closed, compactly bounded and densely equicontinuous. If (Y,d) is a complete rnetric

space the farnily Ɛ, subset of (MU(X,Y), ΤUC) is compact if and only if Ɛ is closed, pointwise

bounded and densely equicontinuous. The same result holds also for compact subsets of

(MC(X,Y), ΤUC), the space of minimal cusco maps frorn X to a Banach space Y.

Soft Topological Questions and Answers

Milan Matejdes1

Abstract. The paper deals with a few questions stated for a soft topological space in

[5]. The main goal is to point out that any soft topological space is homeomorphic to a

topological space (A × X, τA×X) where τA×X is a topology on the product A × X, consequently

many soft topological notions and results can be derived from general topology. Examples

answering the questions of [5] are given.

Textures and Approximation Spaces

Şenol Dost 1

Abstract. By a texturing [1] of a set S we mean a subset δ of the power set P(S)

which is a point separating complete, completely distributive lattice with respect to inclusion

which contains S and ∅ , and for which arbitrary meets coincide with intersections and finite

joins coincide with unions. The pair ( ),S δ is then called a texture space, or simply texture.

Difunctions [2] arise often in the study of textures and ditopological texture spaces. A

difunction is a direlation ( ),f F satisfying certain additional conditions.

The theory of rough set is firstly introduced by Pawlak [5]. It should be noted that the basic

tools for this theory are lower and upper approximation operators. A discussion is presented

on rough set theory from the textural point of view [3]. Here is observed that the presections

which are defined in terms of direlations are generalizations for rough sets. The dual operators

of a textural rough set algebra which are defined on a complemented texture spaces are called

approximation operators. Furthermore, if (r;R) is a complemented direlation then the inverse

of the relation r(the corelation R) of is a lower (an upper) approximation operator.

The aim of this study is to investigate the link between rough set approximation operators and

textural approximation operators in view of categorical approach. We consider generalized

interior-closure spaces (gic-space) [4] which their operators satisfy some conditions, and they

are called i-c* spaces. Further, we observe that a textural rough set algebra is a complemented

gic-space. Bicontinuous difunction between gic-spaces are used as morphisms, and some

categories of the above mentioned approximation operators are formed.

A Numerical Analysis of Non Newtonian flow through Microchannels

Arunabha Chanda1

Abstract. Understanding non-Newtonian flow in microchannels is required for various

micro fluidic devices to explore both fundamental and practical significance of the flow with a

special reference to the effect of viscosity, slip velocity and different power law indices. Flow

channel cross sections in the order of micro scale gives rise to very high heat and mass transfer in

non-Newtonian flow which has a connection to slip flow at microchannel walls and electro

viscous effect. The occurrence of slip near solid boundary has created a challenging problem in

fluid mechanics. Flow through microchannels introduces an electric field which applies an

electric resistance on charged fluid in the opposite direction of the fluid flow. This is known as

electro viscosity effect which retards the flow and on contrary, wall slip phenomena increases the

flow velocity. The role of different indices of power law to the combined effect of wall slip and

electro viscosity has not been well studied. Different models along with dimensionless numbers

has been proposed to describe non Newtonian flow through microchannels but still there exists

discrepancies in results.

A finite difference analysis has been carried out in the present work in an attempt to

investigate numerically the combined effect of wall slip and electro viscosity for the different

indices of power law. Different combinations of steady state, laminar and constant fluid

properties in power law model can yield various results which can be used to justify the

numerical analysis.

Beautiful number 6174

Asra Rezafadaei

Abstract. In this article we try to solve "Mysterious number 6174" or "Kaprekar's

constant". We solve this problem in two step or two theorem. This problem is this:

Consider a 4-digit number (which is not a multiple for 1111). Sort the digits in bigger-

smaller, and reverse order. Subtract the smaller number from the bigger one. Perform the

same operation with the remainder (it is called Kaprekar operation). After a number of steps

we reach 6174. For example:

3452 => 5432 – 2345 = 3087

3087 => 8730 – 378 = 8352

8352 => 8532 – 2358 = 6174

The question is why these numbers reach 6174?

This question was told by an Indian scientist Kaprekar who had lived from 1905 till

1986. A question that after about 50 years no one is able to solve it with mathematical rules

and reasons.

As what was talked about, lots of people have tried to solve this abstruse question but

they couldn’t yet.

However in all of their detection, s.th is collective and that is:

If set all the numbers, after a level we have a particular group of digit numbers that

the magnitude of them is 91. And again if set them from the smallest till the biggest, the

magnitude will change to 30. And they are shown in series named “S”.

S=9810 , 9771 , 9621 , 9531 , 9441 , 8820 , 8721 , 8622 , 8532 , 8442 , 8730 , 7731 , 7632 ,

7533 , 7443 , 8640 , 7641 , 6642 , 6543 , 6444 , 8550 , 7551 , 6552 , 5553 , 5544 , 9990

,9981 ,9972 ,9963 ,9954

In first step or theorem, I proof that why these numbers arrive to the series "S" with

parameter and rules of mathematic. After that I proof that why the numbers of series "S"

arrive to 6174 with

Density Functional Theory in The Solid State Science

Engin Deligöz1 and Haci Özışık2

Abstract. Computational material science uses computers to model, understand and

predict material properties. One of the most innovative and challenging areas of materials

theory has centered on predicting some physical properties. This predictive ability in some

areas competes with experimental measurements. Density functional theory (DFT) is a topic

of interest in mathematics, physics and in chemistry. Modern DFT simulation codes can

calculate a vast range of structural, elastic, electronic, vibrational and thermodynamic

phenomena. We present an overview of the capabilities of solid-state DFT simulations in all

of these topics, illustrated with recent example for TiAsTe compound using the VASP

computer program. The obtained results are in the agreement with the available experimental

results.

Non-linear Analysis of Rotating Cracked FGM Beams

G. Pohit1

Abstract. The dynamic characteristics of cracked structures are of considerable

importance in structural health monitoring. It is known that a crack in a structure introduces a

local flexibility, reduces the stiffness and may change the dynamic behavior of the structure

[1, 2]. Presence of crack in rotating structure may pose higher risk of failure. The present

analysis is carried out for a cantilever beam fixed with a rotating hub. The effect of centrifugal

stiffening on the nonlinear response of a cracked Timoshenko beam is determined. Material is

assumed to have a gradation relation along the depth of the beam. Crack is modeled as a mass

less rotational spring. Centrifugal force and axial displacement raised due to the rotating hub

is incorporated in the strain energy equations. Ritz approximation followed by an iterative

technique is employed to obtain the nonlinear vibration responses. Effects of rotational

speeds, hub radius, crack depths, crack locations and different gradation relations on the

nonlinear frequencies are obtained for different vibration modes. Effect of crack on the

system characteristics are obtained by varying crack size and position. Comparison study of

some of the results with the available solutions confirms the accuracy of the method.

Different Viewpoint for Puzzle Problems as Artificial Intelligence Toy Problems:

Heuristic Angular Metric Approach

İhsan Ömür Bucak1 and Murat Tatlılıoğlu2

Abstract. In this study, the behaviours of heuristic metrics for the solutions of the

puzzle problems with different sizes have been investigated. It has been expressed

systematically that what features a good metric should require have been expressed

systematically by comparing Manhattan, Euclidean, Chebyshev heuristic metrics up to 99-

puzzle. A novel angular metric approach has been developed and a different perspective to the

metric concept has been revealed. The developed angular metric approach has been tested and

proven to be correct. Heuristic metrics provide nearest-optimal solutions in the shortest time

possible in such problems having variables with astronomical values. As in toy problems such

as 8-Puzzle, heuristic metrics which do the search, selection and optimization in a very short

period of time can be seen very important. Comparison of the heuristic metrics on the puzzle

problems can easily be done and observed. Solving behaviour of different metrics are easily

observable when we increase the size of the puzzle. This allows one to examine the heuristic

metrics much better. Under the light of three features of heuristic functions such as

dominance, admissibility and consistency, the metrics can become a straight-line starting from

a half-circle. Having it a half-circle is due to the necessity of triangle rule. In this approach, in

the geometric representation of the metric, a heuristic acquisition is obtained in proportion to

the length of a circle slice. As part of this study, operational and experimental results have

been provided in detail in the original manuscript. As a result, the characters of heuristic

metrics regarded as solid foundations of Artificial Intelligence can be identified easily

according to the approach developed here.

Development of Mathematical Model using Group Contribution Method to Predict

Exposure Limit Values in Air for Safeguarding Health

Mohanad El-Harbawi1 and Phung Thi Kieu Trang2

Abstract. Occupational Exposure Limits (OELs) are representing the amount of a

workplace health hazard that most workers can be exposed to without harming their health. In

this work, a new Quantitative Structure Property Relationship (QSPR) model to estimate

occupational exposure limits values has been developed. The model was developed based on

a set of 100 exposure limit values, which were published by the American Conference of

Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH). MATLAB software was employed to develop

the model based on a combination between Multiple Linear Regression (MLR) and

polynomial models. The results showed that the model is able to predict the exposure limits

with high accuracy, R2 = 0.9998. The model can be considered scientifically useful and

The Way Ahead for Bug-fix time Prediction

Meera Sharma1

Abstract.The bug-fix time i.e. the time to fix a bug after the bug was introduced is an

important factor for bug related analysis, such as measuring software quality [1] or

coordinating the development effort during bug triaging to maintain the software systems

effectively [2]. In literature efforts have been made to construct many bug-fix time prediction

models, based on machine learning algorithms, on both open source and commercial projects.

[3-5]. Previous work has proposed many bug-fix time prediction models that use various bug

attributes (number of developers who participated in fixing the bug, bug severity, bug-

opener’s reputation, number of patches) for predicting the fix time of a newly reported bug. In

this paper we investigate the associations between bug attributes and the bug-fix time. Our

prediction method is based on the association rule mining method which was first explored by

[6].We have proposed an approach to apply association mining by using Apriori algorithm to

predict the fix time of a newly coming bug based on the bug’s severity, priority summary

terms and assignee. We demonstrate our approach on collection of 1,695 bug reports of

Thunderbird, AddOnSDK and Bugzilla products of Mozilla open source project.

Construction of Lossless Broadband Matching Networks with Lumped Elements

Metin Şengül1

Abstract. For microwave and communication engineers, construction of broadband

matching networks has been regarded as a vital problem [1]. For this purpose, broadband

matching analytic theory [2], [3] and computer aided design (CAD) tools are available [4]-[6].

But it is well known that analytic theory is quite difficult to use and is not practical.

Therefore, it is always preferred to employ CAD tools to construct broadband matching

networks. All CAD tools optimize the performance of the system. At the end of optimization,

the element values of the broadband matching network are obtained. Here it should be

emphasized that performance optimization is highly nonlinear with respect to element values

and needs very good initials. So initial element value selection is important for successful

optimization. Therefore, in this work, a well established initialization process is introduced for

construction of broadband matching networks. It is expected that the proposed algorithm can

be used as a front-end for commercially available CAD tools to design practical broadband

matching networks for microwave communication systems.

American options with regime-switching uncertainty

Saul D. Jacka1 and Adriana Ocejo2

Abstract. We study the minimal payoff scenario for the holder of an American-style

option in the presence of regime-switching uncertainty, for a large class of payoff functions.

We assume that the transition rates are only known to lie within level-dependent compact sets,

and so the holder takes a worst-case scenario position. We show that the minimal payoff

identifies with the value function of an optimal stopping problem associated with a certain

extremal rate matrix and characterized as the probabilistic solution of a free-boundary

problem. The approach is via time-change and classical PDE techniques. We apply our results

to the context of American option pricing under the Markov-modulated constant elasticity of

variance and Markov-modulated geometric Brownian motion models.

A Study on Mathematical Modelling for Open Source Software

Optimal Release Planning

V.B.Singh 1

Abstract: The main characteristics of open source software are the release early and

release often [1]. The software engineering community has devoted little attention to release

engineering [2]. Regarding releases, volunteer-driven open source projects usually employ

one of two strategies. Many projects issue a new release after implementing a certain set of

features [3 and 4]. This involves numerous challenges. Alternatively, projects might adopt a

time-based strategy, in which releases are planned for a specific date as mentioned by [3 and

5]. The frequent changes in the source code make the source code complex. It is evident that

for fixing bugs, new features introduction and feature improvements, different files of the

software need to be changed. It is always desirable to meet the users need before releasing

the next version of the software. Release time problem for proprietary software has been

widely discussed by considering only one factor, the bugs which have been fixed in different

releases.In this paper, we have studied a quantified approach for open source release time

problem based on the implementations of bug fixing, new feature introduction and feature

enhancement.

Construction of Independent Spanning Trees for Bi-Rotator Graphs

Cheng-Jhe Lee1, Chiun-Chieh Hsu2, Yu-Ting Tsai3 and Yu-Chun Chu4

Abstract. The families of Cayley graphs, including star, hypercube, and rotator graphs,

have been extensively studied in recent years [1], [2], [3], [4]. All these graphs possess the

rich structural properties such as symmetry, recursive construction, small diameter, and small

degree. In addition, these properties have been proved to be very useful and outperform those

of others in terms of network transmission, computation, broadcasting, communication, fault

tolerance, and so on [2], [3], [4]. Rotator graphs were modified by adding generation

functions to make all edges bi-directional, which is called bi-rotator graphs. A bi-rotator graph

with size n (abbreviated to n-BR), a member of Cayley graphs, contains !n nodes, where each

node is labeled with a unique permutation of n distinct symbols of 1, 2, 3, …, n, and has

degree of 2n-3 [1]. (n-1)-BR subgraphs can be connected with each other via the highest order

of generation functions.

A spanning tree of a graph is composed of all nodes of the original graph and parts of

edges which connect all nodes and form no cycles. Spanning trees are said to be independent

if a directed edge can only be contained in one tree. If a number of independent spanning

trees rooted at a source node can be found, a message can then be sent to one node through

different paths via the different independent spanning trees. Moreover, fault-tolerant

broadcasting can also be achieved by utilizing these independent spanning trees.

The method proposed in this paper adopts recursive construction for finding all

independent spanning trees. With the increasing of the scale, two edges are added to each

node. Based on the 4-BR, we can construct all independent spanning trees of the 5-BR using

the rich structural properties and the added neighbors. In a similar way, we can construct

independent spanning trees of the n-BR based on the spanning tree construction of the (n-1)-

BR. Using the explored properties of symmetry and recursive construction, the paper

proposes an efficient algorithm of constructing independent spanning trees for a bi-rotator

graph. The proposed method constructs 2n-3 independent spanning trees rooted at a

designated node for an n-BR, where the number of the spanning tree is proved to be

maximum.

Pre-service Mathematics Teachers’ Views of Language in Mathematics Teaching and

Their Math Literacy Self-Efficacies

Dilek Çağırgan Gülten1 and Yavuz Yaman2

Abstract. Learning and teaching mathematics requires good knowledge of language,

which is a tool used by individuals to communicate in a society. Using language in

mathematics is of great concern to the first grade primary students who are in the stage of

learning and developing a language. Mathematical literacy involves using mathematical

knowledge properly in everyday life, having an idea about the historical development of

mathematics, using the language of mathematics to communicate and problem solving skills.

The concept of self-efficacy is vital to the development of mathematical literacy.

In consideration of the above mentioned, this study aims to investigate pre-service

mathematics teachers’ views of language used in mathematics teaching and their self-

efficacies in terms of certain variables. The research data were obtained from the study

conducted with the first and fourth grade university students enrolled in the program of

Primary Mathematics Education at İstanbul University. The data were collected using the

“Language in Mathematics Teaching Scale” developed by Bali-Çalıkoğlu (2002), the “Math

Literacy Self-Efficacy Scale” developed by Özgen and Bindak (2008) and a demographical

form. While there is not a similar research study to compare with, the results of the data

analysis will pave the way for further research contributing both to the literature and the

training of mathematics teachers. The findings were discussed in the light of the literature and

some suggestions were made for further research and researchers.

Dilek Ersalan 1 and Naime Ekici 2

Abstract: Let 𝐹 be a free Lie algebra of rank two and 𝜑 be the automorphism of 𝐹

which is permuting the generators. If 𝑅 is a 𝜑-invaryant ideal of 𝐹 then 𝜑 induces an

automorphism 𝜑 of the Lie algebra 𝐿 = 𝐹/𝑅. We investigate for which cases the

automorphism 𝜑 has no non-trivial fixed points. Also we prove that if 𝐿 is a free metabelian

Lie algbera then 𝜑 can has non-trivial fixed points.

The Mathematical Equations of a New Five Phases Segmental

Switched Reluctance Motor

Erdal Büyükbıçakcı1 and Ali Fuat Boz2

Abstract. In this study, the mathematical equations of five phase segmental switched

reluctance motor (SARM) was established by using basic electrical motor model. Phase

currents and magnetic flow variations with respect to prominent inductance of SARM which

has different rotor structure were calculated. In addition, the momentum equation of SARM

was obtained by determining the situations of different phases. It was understood that the

magnetic flow equations depend not only on the function of rotor position, but also the

changing current.

Switched Reluctance Motor

Erdal Büyükbıçakcı1, Ali Fuat Boz2 and Zeynep Büyükbıçakcı1

Abstract. In this study, the dynamic simulation results of a new five phases segmental

switched reluctance motor were developed by using gained statement equations of them. In

computer media, the SARM was rotated from 0° to 90° by 1° increment in order to see the

change of function of current by using algorithmic code parts. In every rotation angle of

SARM, the adjacent two phases were energized to generate common inductance. In analyses,

the variation of obtained phase currents was explained by simulating and visualizing every

current.

On the Existince of Bertrand Curves in Dual Space 𝑫𝟒

Emel Karaca1 and Mustafa Çalışkan2

Abstract. Bertrand curves were defined and some characterizations for these curves

were studied in 𝐼𝐼3 by J. Bertrand in 1850. According to definition, a Bertrand curve in 𝐼𝐼3

is a curve such that its principal normal vectors are the principal normal vectors of an other

curve. Aminov proved that a Bertrand curve does not exist in 𝐼𝐼𝑛 if n ≥ 4. In this study, we

defined Bertrand curves in 𝐼𝐼4 and proved that the curves whose principal normal vectors are

pure dual vectors are Bertrand curves on the unit dual sphere in 𝐼𝐼4 . We gave two

conclusions under special conditions in 𝐼𝐼4. One of them is that two dual curves are Bertrand

curves if 𝜆1 and 𝜆2 are obtained pure reel. The other is that there is no curve whose principal

normal vectors are linear dependent if the dual curves and 𝛽 are unique dual vectors.

Surface Growth Kinematics in Minkowski 3 Space

Gül Güner1, Zehra Özdemir2 and F. Nejat Ekmekci3

Abstract. In [1], the authors developed the modelling of the surface growth by taking

a curve evolving in space. Such a curve generate some surfaces like seashells and horns. We

generalize this modelling to the curves in Minkowski 3 Space. Hence, we can analyze the

surface growth by means of space and time.

On the Codimension-Two and -Three Bifurcations of a Food Web of Four Species

Hsiu-Chuan Wei1, Yuh-Yih Chen2, Shin-Feng Hwang3 and Jenn-Tsann Lin4

Abstract. This work is concerned with codimension-two and -three bifurcations of a

food web developed by Bockelman and Deng [1]. It contains a bottom prey X, two competing

predators Y and Z on X, and a super predator W only on Y. Parameter conditions for a part of

codimension-two bifurcations and a codimension-three bifurcation are derived. Three-

parameter bifurcation diagrams are computed using an adaptive grid method [2,3] to locate

the bifurcations determined by the eigenvalues of equilibria.

Algorithms for Calculating the Limits of Convergent Infinite Series

Héctor Luna García1, Luz María García Cruz2 and A. E. García3

Abstract. We use algorithms to calculate the exact limits of a wide range of

convergent infinite series by means of special functions, this are polygamma functions.

However, in the case of alternating series, these algorithms do not allow the use of such

functions, but allow them to find the limits of this series. Finally, these methods are used as a

powerful and simple tool for calculating the limits of many infinite series as shown in the

examples included.You write the text of your abstract.

Canonical Transformations to the Schrodinger Equation: Hypergeometric Solutions and

Exponential-Type Potentials

J. J. Peña1 , J. Morales2 and J. García-Ravelo3

Abstract. In this work, a direct point canonical transformation and a gauge

transformation is applied to the Schrödinger equation to convert it into a hypergeometric

differential equation. This method leads to exactly solvable multiparameter exponential-type

potentials with eigen-functions given in terms of the hypergeometric function. The proposal is

general because it permits to identify one-dimensional exponential potentials as well as radial

exponential potentials by means of a simple choice of the involved parameters. As useful

applications, the method shows the treatment of some specific exponential-type potentials for

the cases of singular and non-singular exponential potentials, such as Wood-Saxon [1] and

Schiöberg [2] potentials, among others, all of them with hypergeometric-type solutions.

Siacci’s Resolution of the Acceleration Vector for a Non-Null Space Curve in

Minkowski Space

Kahraman Esen Özen1, Murat Tosun2 and Mahmut Akyiğit3

Abstract. In [1], a resolution of the acceleration vector is well known by Siacci for

motion of a material point along a space curve, In this resolution, the acceleration vector is

expressed as the sum of two special oblique components in the osculating plane to the curve.

In this paper, we have studied the Siacci’s theorem for the curves defined in Minkowski

space. Also, an example is given for a helix lying on a cylinder.

Meryem Odabaşı1 and Emine Mısırlı2

Abstract. In nonlinear sciences, it is important to obtain traveling wave solutions of

nonlinear evolution equations to understand the phenomena they describe. In this study, we

obtained the exact traveling wave solutions of the two-dimensional Bratu equation,

generalized heat conduction equation, generalized Benjamin-Bona-Mahony equation and

coupled nonlinear Klein-Gordon equations by means of the trial equation method and the

complete discrimination system. This method is reliable, effective and enables to get soliton,

single-kink and compacton solutions of the generalized nonlinear evolution equations and

systems of equations.

On Reflections and Cartan-Dieudonné Theorem in Minkowski 3-space

Mustafa Özdemir1 and Melek Erdoğdu2

Abstract. In this paper, we investigate the reflections in Minkowski 3-space by three

different appoach. Firstly, we define Lorentzian reflections with Lorentzian inner product.

Then, we examine Lorentzian reflections in view of Lorentzian Householder matrices.

Finally, we use pure split quaternions to derive Lorentzian reflections. For each case, we find

the matrix representation of Lorentzian reflections and characterize the plane of reflection by

using this matrix representation. Morever, we prove the Cartan-Dieudonne Theorem in the

Minkowski space.

M.Ya. Flax1, A.V. Bochkov2, V.A. Goloveshkin3 and A.V.Ponomarev4

Abstract. Prediction of finite size in the process of hot isostatic pressing (HIP) of

powder material tubes is a difficult task which is important for practical purposes. In this

paper, we propose an analytical problem solution about initial step of the process.

Full problem statement is represented as follows [1-2]. Suppose that in the area of the

cylindrical coordinate system area 21 RrR ≤≤ , 43 RrR ≤≤ (capsule) filled by plastically

incompressible material, area 32 RrR ≤≤ filled by plastically compressible powder

material. It is assumed that the deformation rate zε is constant throughout the entire volume.

The initial moment of the pressing process is considered, so it is assumed that the density is

constant throughout the entire volume. Let ( )ru - radial displacement speed.

Steady-state equation: 0rrddr r

The equation of the yield surface for the powder material is taken in the form of

Abstract. (2Z, 3E)-3-(((E)-3-Ethoxy-2-Hydroxybenzylidene)Hydrazono)Butan-2-One

Oxime (1) has been synthesized and characterized by IR, UV/vis and X-ray diffraction. The

molecular structure of the title compound in the ground state (in vacuo) were optimized by

Density Functional Theory (DFT) to include correlation corrections with the 6–311G(d,

p) and B3LYP/6-31G basis sets. In DFT calculations, hybrid functionals are also used,

including the Becke’s three-parameter functional (B3) [1], which defines the exchange

functional as the linear combination of Hartree-Fock, local, and gradient-corrected exchange

terms. The B3 hybrid functional was used in combination with the correlation functionals of

Lee et al. [2]. In addition to the experimental studies, the optimized structure, vibrational

parameters, chemical shifts, molecular orbital energies, thermodynamic properties, ionization

energy, electron affinity, electronegativity, global chemical hardness and chemical softness of

the molecule have been investigated by using DFT. The HOMO and LUMO energies were

calculated by time-dependent TD-DFT approach. The experimental results of the compound

have been compared with theoretical results and it is found to show good agreement with

calculated values. Single crystal X-ray results show that 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic

system, space group P21/c.

Fixed Points of Certain Automorphisms of Free Solvable Lie Algebras

Naime Ekici1

Abstract: Let 𝐹𝑛 be a free Lie algebra of finite rank 𝑛 (𝑛 > 1) over a field 𝐾 and 𝜃 be

an automorphism of 𝐹𝑛 of finite order 𝑛 which has no nontrivial fixed points and permutes

the generators of 𝐹𝑛 cyclically. We describe form of the fixed points of an automorphism of

the free solvable Lie algebra 𝛿𝑚−1(𝐹𝑛)/𝛿𝑚(𝐹𝑛) which is induced by 𝜃, where 𝛿𝑚(𝐹𝑛) is the

m-th derived term and 𝜔 ∈ 𝛿𝑚−1(𝐹𝑛)/𝛿𝑚(𝐹𝑛). Form of the fixed point subalgebras of an

automorphism of a free metabelian Lie algebra were given by N. Ekici and Z. Esmerligil. We

generalize this result for solvable Lie algebras. This work is an extension of results of W.

Tomaszewski in group theory for Lie algebras.

convex functions, we get generalizations of these results applying Lidstone's interpolating

polynomials and Čebyšev functional. Using obtained results, we generate new familly of

exponentially convex functions. The outcome are some new classes of two-parameter

Cauchy-type means.

A simple State Observer Design for Linear Dynamic Systems by Using Taylor Series

Approximation

Saadettin Aksoy 1 and Hakan Kizmaz 2

Abstract. State variables that determine a system’s dynamics should be known for

analysis and control of dynamical systems [1-2]. Specifically, dynamics feedback for pole

placement is required. Furthermore, estimation of state variables in real time is a very

important problem in adaptive control applications [3]. Unfortunately, all of the state variables

cannot be measured in practice. As a result, use of a suitable state observer or estimator is

unavoidable in order to obtain immeasurable state variables. There exit a variety of state

observers in the literature [4-5]. Implementation of state observers that use only input and

output measurements of the systems are carried out via solution of the observer state integral

equations pertinent to the observer. There are several numerical solution algorithms for a

solution of the observer state integral equations in the literature [6]. Even though the Runge-

Kutta numerical integration algorithm is frequently used for this purpose, it has several

drawbacks that depend on the step-size h. First, accuracy gets poorer as h increases. Second,

computation time becomes an issue if h is too small. Third, round-off errors may become

important for small values of h because the number of cycles required to cover the desired

time interval [0, t] increases. Note that equations are evaluated for each t in the interval [0, t]

in all of the above mentioned algorithms.

In this study, a simple general algorithm is proposed for state variables estimation of

linear, time-invariant multi-input multi output systems. The proposed algorithm is based on

Taylor series approximation and has an analog solution. The solution that results from the

proposed algorithm gets closer to the true solution when more and more terms are kept in the

Taylor series. Finally, the proposed method gives the approximate solution of the estimation

vector ˆ (t)x as a function of time in the interval [0,t]. Consequently, computation of the state

integral equations for each t is eliminated. The Taylor series are defined on the interval

t∈[0,1] and have the orthogonality property like the Walsh, Chebyshev and Legendre series

[7-8]. The proposed algorithm uses some important properties such as the operational matrix

of integration for Taylor vector [9-10]. The algorithm consists of four steps. In the first step,

the feedback gain matrix G, which will force the estimation error to go to zero in a short time,

is determined by using a suitable method [4]. In the second step, the observer state equation is

1 Siirt University, Siirt, Turkey, [email protected] 2 Sakarya University, Sakarya, Turkey, [email protected]

converted into integral equation by integrating the terms on either side of the equation. After

some algebraic manipulations, the time dependent terms on either side of the integral equation

are removed. Hence, the problem is reduced to a set of nonlinear equations with constant

coefficients. System outputs are used by the observer equations. Therefore, we have to

calculate it’s as the function of time. They can obtained from plant output measurement by

using curve fitting methods such as Linear Least Squares, Lebenberg-Marquardt and Gauss-

Newton [11]. Finally, in the last step, nonlinear equations for unknown state vector are

converted into a recursive form whose solution can be obtained easily by a computer program.

The proposed estimation algorithm was implemented in MATLABTM and it was applied to

different cases. Results obtained by the proposed algorithm are in harmony with the real

results.

On the Classical Zariski Topology over Prime Spectrum of a Module

Seçil Çeken1 and Mustafa Alkan 2

Abstract. Let R be an associative ring with identity and Spec(M) denote the set of all

prime submodules of a right R-module M. In this talk, we deal with the classical Zariski

topology on Spec(M) which is denoted by τc. We prove that if (Spec(M), τc) is a Noetherian

topological space, then M has finitely many minimal prime submodules. We characterize all

the irreducible components of (Spec(M), τc ) and all the minimal prime submodules of M for a

non-zero flat module M over a commutative ring R. We obtain some results concerning

compactness and connectedness of (Spec(M), τc) by using algebraic properties of the module

M. We give some equivalent conditions for (Spec(M), τc) to be a Hausdorff space or T₁-space

when M is a right module over a left perfect ring R.

Numerical Solutions of Steady Incompressible Dilatant Flow in an Enclosed

Cavity Region

Serpil Şahin1 and Hüseyin Demir2

Abstract. In this study, we consider flow properties of Dilatant fluid motion generated

by top wall motion for 2-D steady incompressible flows. Pseudo time derivative is used to

solve the continuity and momentum equations with suitable initial and boundary conditions.

Therefore, the governing equations of fluid of vorticity-stream function formulations are

solved numerically using finite difference and Gauss Elimination method. The stream

function and vorticity results are obtained for the steady two-dimensional Dilatant

incompressible flow. These results are presented both in tables and figures. The stream

function and vorticity equations are solved separately with the numerical solution method

used in this study. Each equation with pseudo time parameter on very fine grid mesh is solved

step by step with a pair of tridiagonal system. The advantage of this process is that it gives the

solution of the flow problems effectively and accurately.

Keywords. Finite Difference Method, Pseudo Time Parameter, Dilatant Fluid.

The Analysis of the Mathematical Modelling Activities in the Ninth Grade

Mathematics Coursebook

Selin Urhan1 and Şenol Dost2

Abstract. Mathematical modelling is a process of translating the real life problems

into the language of mathematics using mathematical terms, or expressing a real life situation

mathematically (Cheng, 2001). Model eliciting activities, on the other hand, are problem-

solving activities which include nonroutine, open-ended, and complicated real life situations

with nontraditional problems and which have various possible solutions (Lesh & Doer, 2003).

According to Lesh et al. (2000), a model construction activity must involve the following

principles: the model construction principle, the reality principle, the self-assessment

principle, the model documentation (construct documentation) principle, the model

generalizability principle, and the effective prototype principle.

In the secondary mathematics education program in Turkey, the significance of creating

learning environments based on modelling activities that are appropriate for the level of

students and that can ensure active participation is highly emphasized (MoNE, 2013). Yet,

modelling activities are seldom used in courses (Tekin & Bukova Güzel, 2011; Urhan & Dost,

2015). One of the reasons behind this situation is that the coursebooks are qualitatively and

quantitatively insufficient as far as modelling activities are concerned (Vural et al., 2013;

Urhan & Dost, 2015).

The aim of the current study is to analyze the activities in the ninth grade mathematics

coursebook that was prepared in line with the new curriculum based on the model

construction activity principles. The data collection procedure involved document analysis,

which is one of the qualitative data collection methods. Frequency and percentage values

were calculated to reveal the congruence between the activities analyzed and the principles.

The results of the analysis indicate that model construction activities that employ all the

principles are seldom found in the coursebook. It was found that of the seventy three activities

in the coursebook, fourteen activities (19%) are model construction activities. It was revealed

that the model construction activities are mostly seen in “Equations and Inequalities” unit.

Modelling activities were not found in “Congruence and Similarity in Triangles” and “Right

Angled Triangle, Trigonometry, Area of the Triangle, Vectors” units. While five of the model

construction activities partially follow the self-assessment principle, they fully follow all the

- 317 -

other principles. Within the framework the obtained results, it is recommended that ninth

grade mathematics coursebooks be revised in terms of the modellling activities they involve,

and that similar analyses be conducted on other coursebooks as well.

A Generalized Method for Centres of Trajectories in Kinematics

Tülay Erişir1, Mehmet Ali Güngör2 and Murat Tosun3

Abstract. In this paper, we study on one-parameter planar motion in generalized

complex plane or p − complex plane 2: , ,p x iy x y i p= + ∈ = which is defined as system of

the generalized complex numbers. Firstly, we define a canonical relative system for one-

parameter planar motion in p − complex plane. From this, we obtain the generalized Euler-

Savary formula, which gives the relationship between the curvatures of trajectory curves in

the generalized complex plane.

A New Generalization of the Steiner Formula and the Holditch Theorem

Tülay Erişir1, Mehmet Ali Güngör2 and Murat Tosun3

Abstract. In this study, we first obtained the Steiner area formula in the generalized

complex plane. Then, with the aid of this formula, we determined a new approach for the

Holditch theorem giving the relationship between the areas formed by points in the

generalized complex plane (or p − complex plane). Finally, according to the special values

of p∈ we examined the cases of the Steiner Formula and Holditch Theorem. In this way,

for p∈R we generalized the Steiner Formula and Holditch theorem consisting the Euclidean

( 1)p = , Galilean ( 0)p = and Lorentzian ( 1)p = − cases.

On the Construction of Generalized Bobillier Formula

Tülay Erişir1, Mehmet Ali Güngör2 and Soley Ersoy3

Abstract. In this paper, one-parameter planar motion in the generalized complex plane

(or p − complex plane) 2: , ,p x iy x y i p= + ∈ = which is defined as a system of

generalized complex numbers is studied. Firstly, generalized Bobillier formula is obtained by

using the geometric interpretation of generalized Euler-Savary formula in the p − complex

plane. Moreover, it is shown that the Bobillier formula may be obtained by an alternative

method without the use of Euler-Savary formula in the generalized complex plane. Thus, this

formula generalizes the Euclidean, Lorentzian and Galilean cases.

Generalized 𝑭-Expansion Method and Application to Nonlinear Fractional

Differential Equation

Yusuf Ali Tandoğan 1 and Yusuf Pandır 2

Abstract. Many researches have been done to create the solutions of fractional

differential equations [1-4]. Firstly, Zhang and Xia offer generalized F-expansion method to

solve partial differential equations according to the power series [5]. In this study, we apply

generalized F-expansion method in order to achieve new jakobi elliptic function classes of the

fractional differential equations within modified Riemann-Liouville derivative. By using this

approach, we find some new results for the nonlinear differential equation. As a result, many

non-travelling wave solutions are acquired such as single and combined non-degenerate

Jacobi elliptic function solutions, soliton solutions and trigonometric function solutions.

Views of Pre-service Elementary Mathematics Teachers Toward The Reasons for

Student’s Mistakes About Fractions and Preventing These Mistakes

Yasemin Kıymaz1

Abstract. To evaluate the students’ works, to analyze the students’ mistakes and with

taking into account these situations to provide learning environments for students that

facilitate their understanding are some of the important tasks that pre-service teachers will

confront in the future. In this study, pre-service elementary mathematics teachers are asked

the reasons for student’s mistakes about fractions and how they prevent these mistakes. Data

were collected through a survey that contained open ended questions. 71 pre-service teachers

who attended a state university participated in this study. The collected data will be analyzed

through content analysis.

Interface Design for Comparative Solution of Mathematical Equations by Classical

Interpolation Methods and Artificial Nerve Network Approaches

Zeynep Batık1 and Erdal Büyükbıçakcı2

Abstract. As a result of the experiments, measurements, observations and calculations

realized in applied sciences, many data is obtained. Methods such as interpolation, smallest

squares, halving, tangent-beam, Newton Raphson and Regula–False. In recent years'

developments, artificial nerve networks, blur logic, intuitional and generic algorithms are used

in sciences designing new systems by replicating the human brain functions. Classical

Interpolation Methods (CIM) and Artificial Nerve Networks (ANN) are used in many fields

such as math, physics, electric, computer engineering and many applications such as

optimization, control, sample completion-matching, voice and vision detection, calculation

and classification.

In this study solution of mathematical equations were given comparatively by using

interpolation methods and artificial nerve network approaches. In simulations realized in

MATLAB GUI ambiance designed by graphical user interface program, results of equation

systems are shown as numerical and graphical interface. At the same time the program

ensures us to select the mathematical function on interface with the help of interpolation

method parameters and artificial nerve network parameters.

Interface Design for Genetic Algorithm Based Solution of Polynomial Equations

Zeynep Batık1 and Erdal Büyükbıçakcı2

Abstract. Various analytical methods have been and are being developed fir solution

of mathematical equation systems (linear and nonlinear equations). In stead of using classical

methods in solution of mathematical equation systems using computer supported numerical

analysis methods that realizes multiple iterations more rapidly ease the solution. In recent

years computer supported Genetic Algorithms (GA) are prevalently used in solution of all

kinds of optimization problems. Generic algorithms are especially used in calculating roots of

high degree polynomials easily. In order to ensure the solution of equations mathematical

operations such as start up conditions, root interval and iterations are necessary.

In this study genetic algorithms which are used in optimization field in recent years are

adopted to polynomial equation solutions and accordingly graphical interface program was

designed and results were compared with other numerical methods. Bu using the graphical

user interface program designed in MATLAB GUI ambiance, roots of determined polynomial

equations are calculated by using generic algorithm and other numerical methods. This

program which can also be used for education purpose, polynomial coefficients and

sensitivity values are inputed and the roots can be calculated by generic algorithms and

classical equation solution methods on intervals determined by the user.

Metabelian Lie Algebras

Abstract: Let 𝐴𝑛 and 𝑀𝑛 be a free abelian Lie algebra and a free metabelian Lie

algebra of finite rank 𝑛 respectively.

We describe fixed point subalgebras of an automorphism of permuting cyclically free

generators of 𝐴𝑛 and free generators of 𝑀𝑛.

We prove that if 𝜃 is an automorphisms of order 𝑛 which permutes free generators of

𝑀𝑛 then the form of the fixed point subalgebra of 𝑀𝑛 is 𝑣 + 𝜃(𝑣) + ⋯+ 𝜃𝑛−1(𝑣):𝑣𝑣𝑀𝑛.

The motivation of this work is based on the results of C. Baginski and W. Tomaszewski.

Mechanics Equations of Frenet-Serret Frame on Minkowski Space

Zeki Kasap1 and Emin Özyılmaz2

Abstract. It is well known that Minkowski space is the mathematical space setting and

Einstein.s theory of special relativity is most appropriate formulated. Dynamical systems

theory is an area of mathematics used to describe the behavior of complex dynamical systems

in which usually by employing differential equations or difference equations. The Frenet-

Serret formulas describe the kinematic properties of a particle which moves along a

continuous, differentiable curve in Euclidean space three-dimensional real space or the

geometric properties of the curve itself in any case of any motion. The Frenet-Serret trihedron

plays a key role in the differential geometry of curves such that its shows ultimately leading to

a more or less complete classification of smooth curves in Euclidean space up to congruence.

In this paper, we established mechanics Equations of Frenet-Serret frame on Minkowski space

and we considered a relativistic for an electromagnetic field that it is moving under the

influence of its own Frenet-Serret curvatures. Also, we obtained the mechanical equations of

motion for several curvatures dependent actions of interest in physics.
