Based on the parallelogram law and orthogonality, we define a new geometric constant and obtain some of its geometric properties. This constant provides a useful tool for estimating the exact values of Jordan-von Neumann constants in Banach spaces and for studying the orthogonality. In addition, we consider Pythagorean orthogonality and introduce another new constant to investigate a connection between Pythagorean orthogonality and isosceles orthogonality

Given a graph G , many of its topological descriptors have the additive form D p ( G ) = (cid:80) i c pi , where the c i s are positive parameters associated with G , and p is an arbitrary real number. Sometimes these expressions are generalizations of descriptors with the simpler form D ( G ) = (cid:80) i c i . It is shown how Radon’s inequality and its refinements can be used to find a variety of bounds among members of these families of generalized descriptors. The particular case of sums of powers of normalized Laplacian eigenvalues is thoroughly discussed.
给定一个图G,它的许多拓扑描述符具有加性形式dp (G) = (cid:80) ci pi,其中ci s是与G相关的正参数,p是任意实数。有时,这些表达式是描述符的一般化,具有更简单的形式D (G) = (cid:80) i ci。它显示了Radon不等式及其改进如何可以用来找到这些广义描述符族的成员之间的各种界限。详细讨论了归一化拉普拉斯特征值幂和的特殊情况。

This article focuses on a Timoshenko beam model introduced by Elishakoff. This model is free of the second frequency spectrum and solves the paradox of equal wave speeds, related to Timoshenko’s model. Damping created by a fractional Laplacian is considered, which includes internal damping, Kelvin-Voigt damping, and intermediate damping. Exponential stability is shown without requiring any relationship between the system coefficients

The second-smallest eigenvalue of the Laplacian matrix of a graph G is called the algebraic connectivity of G , which is one of the most-studied parameters in spectral graph theory and network science. In this paper, we obtain some new lower bounds of the algebraic connectivity by rank-one perturbation matrix and compare them with known results.

In addition, we establish a sharp lower bound for the domination number of a graph under certain conditions.
