We investigate a simple variation of the series RLC circuit in which anti-parallel diodes replace the resistor. This results in a damped harmonic oscillator with a nonlinear damping term that is maximal at zero current and decreases with an…
We study the deterministic recursion $n_{j+1} = n_j - \tau(n_j)$, where $\tau(n)$ denotes the divisor function, and the associated orbit length $a(x)$. Heuristics based on the average order of $\tau(n)$ suggest that $a(x) \asymp x / \log…
In this short note, we provide the necessary and sufficient condition for an infinite collection of axis-parallel boxes in $\mathbb{R}^{d}$ to be pierceable by finitely many axis-parallel $k$-flats, where $0 \leq k < d$. We also consider…

Guided by classical concepts, we define the notion of \emph{ends} of an iterated function system and prove that the number of ends is an upper bound for the number of nondegenerate components of its attractor. The remaining isolated points…
Using a recursive method we construct dimer and nondimer variational ansatzs of the ground state for the two-legged ladder, and compute the number of dimer coverings, the energy density and the spin correlation functions. The number of…
In this paper the approach to obtaining nonrecurrent formulas for some recursively defined sequences is illustrated. The most interesting result in the paper is the formula for the solution of quadratic map-like recurrence. Also, some…
The analysis of RLC circuits is usually made by considering phasor transforms of sinusoidal signals (characterized by constant amplitude, period and phase) that allow the calculation of the AC steady state of RLC circuits by solving simple…
The resistance between arbitrary nodes of infinite networks of resistors is studied when the network is perturbed by removing one bond from the perfect lattice. A connection is made between the resistance and the lattice Green's function of…
The order of the set of equivalent resistances, A(n) of n equal resistors combined in series and in parallel has been traditionally addressed computationally, for n up to 22. For larger n there have been constraints of computer memory.…
Basic multimode impedance analysis grounded in the availability of nonequilibrium charge carriers and their retarded path towards equilibrium is used to access the inadequacy of equivalent circuits in nonlinear systems with inherent memory.…
The Lambek calculus can be considered as a version of non-commutative intuitionistic linear logic. One of the interesting features of the Lambek calculus is the so-called "Lambek's restriction," that is, the antecedent of any provable…
An infinite regular three-dimensional network is composed of identical resistors each of resistance joining adjacent nodes. What is the equivalent resistance between the lattice site and the lattice site, when two bonds are removed from the…
An explicit formula for the resistance between two nodes in a network with a non-symmetric Laplacian matrix L is obtained. This is of great advantage e.g. in electronic circuit fault analysis, where non-linear systems have to be solved…
The paper deals with the existence of non-radial solutions for an $N$-coupled nonlinear elliptic system. In the repulsive regime with some structure conditions on the coupling and for each symmetric subspace of rotation symmetry, we prove…
Similarly to their purely electric counterparts, spintronic circuits may be presented as networks of lumped elements. Due to interplay between spin and charge currents, each element is described by a matrix conductance. We establish…
In this note, we study one-dimensional reflected backward doubly stochastic differential equations (RBDSDEs) with one continuous barrier and discontinuous generator (left-or right-continuous). By a comparison theorem establish here for…
