    Abstract: Transitivity and Primitivity of the action of the direct product of the symmetric group on Cartesian product of three sets are investigated in this paper. We prove that this action is both transitive and imprimitive for all n ≥ 2. In addition, we establish that the rank associated with the action is a constant 23 Further; we calculate the subdegree...

    Abstract: This paper investigates the stabilization of unstable equilibrium for a 4D hyperchaotic system. The linear, non-linear and speed feedback controls are used to suppress hyperchaos to this equilibrium. The Routh-Hurwitz theorem and Lyapunov's second methods are used to derive the conditions of the asymptotic stability of the controlled hyperchaotic s... Show More

    Abstract: The article is devoted to classification of close sets of functions in k-valued logic. We build the classification of finite closed sets. The sets contain only constants and unary functions since sets containing even a two-ary function are infinite. Formulas of the number of finite sets and minimal sets exist for all natural k. We find the numbers ... Show More

    Abstract: In this paper, we study the state of a country with the determining factors of the development-nondevelopment. For doing so, we have seen that they have indicators and sub-indicators. And after having calculated the weight and value of each determining factor, we created a new index to measure a country’s development.
  • Mathematical Modelling of Impact of Education on Average Age at the First Marriage in Tanzania

    Abstract: This paper examines the impact of education on the average age at the first marriage to women in Tanzania. A mathematical model for the distribution of average age at the first marriage in Tanzania is established and the effect of education on the year at first marriage is estimated for the years 1999 and 2003/04. Both descriptive analysis and mode... Show More

    Abstract: Hemirings appear in a natural manner, in some applications to the theory of automata, the theory of formal languages, graph theory, design theory and combinatorial geometry. Recently, the notions of hemirings with special structures were introduced. But still now there are no complete structural properties of hemirings. In this paper we try to inve... Show More
