Distributions of strictly positive numbers are common and can be characterized by standard statistical measures such as mean, standard deviation, and skewness. We demonstrate that for these distributions the skewness $D_3$ is bounded from…

This paper concerns singular value decomposition (SVD)-based computable formulas and bounds for the condition number of the Total Least Squares (TLS) problem. For the TLS problem with the coefficient matrix $A$ and the right-hand side $b$,…

Consider operators $L_{V}:=\Delta + V$ in a bounded smooth domain $D$ in $R^N$. Assume that $V\in C^1(D)$ and $V$ may blow up at the boundary at most as $1/\delta^2$ where $\delta$ denotes distance to the boundary. Assume also that $L_{V}$…

It is known that $N(n)$, the maximum number of mutually orthogonal latin squares of order $n$, satisfies the lower bound $N(n) \ge n^{1/14.8}$ for large $n$. For $h\ge 2$, relatively little is known about the quantity $N(h^n)$, which…

We derive a criterion for the breakdown of solutions to the Oldroyd-B model in $\R^3$ in the limit of zero Reynolds number (creeping flow). If the initial stress field is in the Sobolev space $H^m$, $m> 5/2$, then either a unique solution…
