Short pitch deformed helix ferroelectric liquid crystals have numerous applications as active materials in displays, optical telemetry and biomedical devices. In this paper, we derive convenient analytical formulas to calculate the…

In this paper we give a comparison between the formulation of the concept of metric for a real vector space of finite dimension in terms of \emph{tensors} and \emph{extensors}. A nice property of metric extensors is that they have inverses…

Let $m_{2}<m_{1}$ be two given nonnegative integers with $n=m_{1}+m_{2}+1$. For suitably differentiable $f$, we let $P,Q\in \pi_{n}$ be the Hermite polynomial interpolants to $f$ which satisfy $P^{(j)}(a)=f^{(j)}(a),j=0,1,...,m_{1}$ and…
