The Laplace Transform of the Linear Car-following Model
(University of Texas at Arlington, 2008)
**Please note that the full text is embargoed** ABSTRACT: Laplace transform is used to analyze the differential-difference equation for the linear car-following model. The car-following model has been developed to describe ...
On the Computation of Semivalues for TU Games
(University of Texas at Arlington, 2008-12)
In an earlier paper, [Dragan,2006a] , we proved that every Least Square Value is the Shapley Value of a game obtained by rescaling from the given game. In the paper where the Least Square Values were introduced by Ruiz, ...
The Reflection Property in Normed Linear Planes with Applications to Generalized Conics
(University of Texas at Arlington, 2005-07)
**Please note that the full text is embargoed** ABSTRACT: The ancient Greek mathematician Heron was the first to solve the problem of finding the shortest path from point A to point B on one side of the line L, subject to ...

The convergence of difference boxes
(Mathematical Association of America, 2005)
We consider an elementary mathematical puzzle known as a "difference box" in terms of a discrete map from R⁴ to R⁴ or , canonically, from a subset of the first R² into itself. We identify the map's unique canonical fixed ...
The effect of the HIV/AIDS epidemic on Africa's truck drivers
(American Institute of Mathematical Sciences, 2005-10)
The AIDS epidemic is having a growing impact on the transport
sector of the economy of sub-Saharan Africa, where long-distance truck drivers
are at an increased risk of infection due to their frequent contacts with ...
Sharpness of saturation in harvesting and predation
(American Institute of Mathematical Sciences, 2009-10)
Harvesting and predation occur through contact processes in which the rate at which the managed (prey) population can be found depends on the population size, usually saturating at high densities. Many models incorporate ...
Effects of education, vaccination and treatment on HIV transmission in homosexuals with genetic heterogeneity
(2004)
Genetic studies report the existence of a mutant allele Δ32 of CC R5 chemokine receptor gene at high allele frequencies ( 10%) in Caucasian populations. The presence of the allele is believed to provide partial or full ...
A simple vaccination model with multiple endemic states
(Elsevier, 2000)
A simple two-dimensional SIS model with vaccination exhibits a backward bifurcation for some parameter values. A two-population version of the model leads to the consideration of vaccination policies in paired border towns. ...
