We show that every 2-degenerate graph with maximum degree Δ has a
strong edge-coloring with at most 8Δ−4 colors....

A model of computer system security operation is developed based on the
fork-join queueing network formalism. We introduce a security operation
performance measure, and show how it may be used to performance evaluation of
actual systems....

With the symbolic framework of Probability Bracket Notation (PBN), the Markov
Sequence Projector (MSP) is introduced to expand the evolution formula of
Homogeneous Markov Chains (HMCs). The well-known weather example, a Visible
Markov Model...
Koszul complexes and spectra of projective hypersurfaces with isolated
singularities

For a projective hypersurface Z with isolated singularities, we generalize
some well-known assertions in the nonsingular case due to Griffiths, Scherk,
Steenbrink, Varchenko, and others about the relations between the Steenbrink
spectrum,...

Mathematical Physics
In quantum mechanics (formulated, say, in Schr\"{o}dinger picture) only the
knowledge of a complete set of observables Λj enables us to declare
the related physical inner product (i.e., the Hilbert-space metric Θ
such that $...
Unlinking and unknottedness of monotone Lagrangian submanifolds

Under certain topological assumptions, we show that two monotone Lagrangian
submanifolds embedded in the standard symplectic vector space with the same
monotonicity constant cannot link one another and that, individually, their
smooth knot ...
Algebraic and geometric aspects of bipartite planar graphs

Mathematics
Commutative Algebra
Let B_{2t} be a bipartite planar graph with an even number of regions. We are
able to find bounds for the graded Betti numbers and the projective dimension
of the quotient ring associated to the graph. We also will investigate the
minimal v...
On strong orthogonality and strictly convex normed linear spaces

Functional Analysis
We introduce the notion of strongly orthogonal set relative to an element in
the sense of Birkhoff-James in a normed linear space to find a necessary and
sufficient condition for an element x of the unit sphere SX to be an
exposed...
Enhanced six operations and base change theorem for higher Artin stacks

In this article, we develop a theory of Grothendieck's six operations for
derived categories in \'etale cohomology of Artin stacks, for both torsion and
adic coefficients. We prove several desired properties of the operations,
including the...

The higher associativity was introduced by Jim Stasheff in [25] with the
higher coherence condition on the unit and now becomes one of the most
important higher structures on spaces and algebras. However in [25], he claims
that the higher c...
