On the Difference of 4-Gonal Linear Systems on some Curves

Let C = (C, g^1/4 ) be a tetragonal curve. We consider the scrollar invariants e1 , e2 , e3 of g^1/4 . We prove that if W^1/4 (C) is a non-singular variety, then every g^1/4 ∈ W^1/4 (C) has the same scrollar invariants.

Properties of Lp (K)-Solutions of Linear Nonhomogeneous Impulsive Differential Equations with Unbounded Linear Operator

Sufficient conditions for the existence of Lp(k)-solutions of linear nonhomogeneous impulsive differential equations with unbounded linear operator are found. An example of the theory of the linear nonhomogeneous partial impulsive differential equations of parabolic type is given.

Stochastic Arithmetic Theory and Experiments

Stochastic arithmetic has been developed as a model for exact computing with imprecise data. Stochastic arithmetic provides confidence intervals for the numerical results and can be implemented in any existing numerical software by redefining types of the variables and overloading the operators on them. Here some properties of stochastic arithmetic are further investigated and applied to the computation of inner products and the solution to linear systems. Several numerical experiments are performed showing the efficiency of the proposed approach.
