Convexity or concavity for a real function is expressed by the relation between internally dividing points in the domain and in the range and so is Jensen’s inequality. Observing that it is also expressed by externally dividing points, we discuss Jensen’s operator inequality from this point of view.

This paper analyzes a strategic entry game by vertically integrated firms in a successive Cournot model. When a vertically integrated firm enters backward into the input market, it chooses one between two; direct entry or spin-off. Such an entry makes the input market be more competitive than before. It also benefits all separated downstream firms, whereas it deteriorates all integrated downstream firms. The number of downstream firms plays an important role in equilibrium. If the number of downstream firms is less than a threshold level, integrated firms choose direct entry, whereas, if the number of downstream firms exceeds the threshold level, integrated firms spin off their input divisions.

In this paper, we consider a stochastic adsorbate-induced phase transition model. First, we prove the existence and uniqueness of global solution. Then, we estimate the long-time expectation of the adsorbate coverage rate of the surface and its average integral as well as the behaviour of solutions. Finally, numerical examples are presented to illustrate those results.

This paper deals with a minimum spanning tree programming problem involving fuzzy random weights. New decision making models are proposed to maximize the probability that the degree of possibility or necessity that the fuzzy goal for the fuzzy random objective function is satisfied is greater than or equal to a satisficing level. It is shown that the original problems involving fuzzy random variables are transformed into deterministic equivalent ones which are nonlinear maximum spanning tree problems through the proposed models. An efficient tabu search algorithm is developed to solve the resulting nonlinear maximum spanning tree problems.

We consider trinomials of the form x⁵ + ax^m + 1 where a is a rational number and determine those trinomials that factor over the rational numbers as the product of an irreducible quadratic and an irreducible cubic. The solution requires the calculation of the rational points on a pair of genus 2 curves.

We describe derivations of weak BCC-algebras (called also BZ-algebras) in which the condition (xy)z = (xz)y is satisfied only in the case when elements x, y belong to the same branch.

As a continuation of our previous considerations about the operator order among quasi-arithmetic means [Linear Algebra Appl. 434 (2011), 1228–1237], we study this order with a different condition on the spectra. As an application we gave the order among some means. Also, we give similar results for F-order.
