Some New Identities of Genocchi Numbers and Polynomials involving Bernoulli and Euler polynomials

In this paper, we will deal with some new formulae for two product Genocchi polynomials together with both Euler polynomials and Bernoulli polynomials. We get some applications for Genocchi polynomials. Our applications possess a number of interesting properties to study in Theory of Analytic numbers which we express in the present paper.Comment: 10 pages, submitte

Direct solutions to tropical optimization problems with nonlinear objective functions and boundary constraints

We examine two multidimensional optimization problems that are formulated in terms of tropical mathematics. The problems are to minimize nonlinear objective functions, which are defined through the multiplicative conjugate vector transposition on vectors of a finite-dimensional semimodule over an idempotent semifield, and subject to boundary constraints. The solution approach is implemented, which involves the derivation of the sharp bounds on the objective functions, followed by determination of vectors that yield the bound. Based on the approach, direct solutions to the problems are obtained in a compact vector form. To illustrate, we apply the results to solving constrained Chebyshev approximation and location problems, and give numerical examples.Comment: Mathematical Methods and Optimization Techniques in Engineering: Proc. 1st Intern.

Slicing, skinning, and grafting

We prove that a Bers slice is never algebraic, meaning that its Zariski closure in the character variety has strictly larger dimension. A corollary is that skinning maps are never constant. The proof uses grafting and the theory of complex projective structures.Comment: 11 pages, 1 figure, to appear in American Journal of Mathematic
