Twisted p-adic (h,q)-L-functions
AbstractBy using the q-Volkenborn integral on Zp, in Simsek (2006) [33] and Simsek (2007) [34], generating functions for the (h,q)-Bernoulli polynomials and numbers were defined. By using these functions, we define a new twisted (h,q)-partial zeta function which interpolates the twisted (h,q)-Bernoulli polynomials and generalized twisted (h,q)-Bernoulli numbers at negative integers. We give a relation between twisted (h,q)-partial zeta functions and the twisted (h,q)-two-variable L-function. We find the value of this function at s=0. We also find the residue of this function at s=1. We construct a p-adic twisted (h,q)-L-function which interpolates the twisted (h,q)-Bernoulli polynomials: Lξ,p,q(h)(1−n,t,χ)=−Bn,χn,ξ(h)(p∗t,q)−χn(p)pn−1Bn,χn,1(h)(p−1p∗t,qp)n. Furthermore, we construct an integral representation of the twisted (h,q)-two-variable L-function. We give some applications related to the p-adic twisted (h,q)-L-function and the twisted (h,q)-Bernoulli polynomials

An examination of the notion of procedural justice put forth by British philosopher Stuart Hampshire as the best solution to deep disagreement
A Multi-Language Comparison of Influences on Author Verification using Character N-Grams
We create a new multi-language corpus for author verification based on Wikipedia talkpages, and evaluate the influence that differences in topic and time have on character n-gram author profiles. Topic alignment between two texts is found to increase author verification precision, and an authors writing style is found to change over time, but not more significantly after 3 years than after 1 year.Information ArchitectureWISElectrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Scienc
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
The vanishing author in computer-generated works: a critical analysis of recent Australian case law
Abstract
The use of software is ubiquitous in the creation of many copyright works, yet the requirement in copyright law that every work have a human author who engages in independent intellectual effort means that its use may prevent copyright subsistence. Several recent Australian cases have refocused attention on authorship as an essential criterion of copyright subsistence, and these cases suggest that much computer-produced output may be authorless and thus lack copyright protection. This article, the first in a two-part series, analyses how each case deals with the question of authorship of computer-produced works and why the use of software diminishes copyright protection for a significant number of computer-generated works. The article critiques the application of conventional notions of human authorship developed in the pre-computer age to modern productions and suggests alternative approaches to authorship that satisfy both the major objectives of copyright policy and the need to adapt to the computer age. The article argues that, without a broader judicial approach to authorship of computer-generated works, Parliament must remedy the lacuna in protection for these ‘authorless’ works. Possible solutions for reform are suggested. In a forthcoming article, the author comprehensively examines those reform proposals
Diffusive author(s), cohesive author: Analysis of S/N (1994)
This study indicates the ways in which various aspects of the author(s) are brought forth in Dumb type’s performance art, the S/N production. Previous research has suggested a non-hierarchical organization of Dumb type and the absence of a “privileged author” in Dumb type’s collaborative work, S/N. However, the results that I have investigated from member’s interviews on the creative process of S/N along with my analysis of the recorded images of S/N, indicate a different aspect of the author(s). First, S/N was created through, so to speak, the collective ideas of the members of Dumb type. Further, S/N has at least nine quotations from previous performances, installations, and printed writings, besides the work-in-progress technique. Explicating one of the “author functions” as given by Michel Foucault, each text has plural subjects of the author. However, it has been revealed from members’ interviews that Teiji Furuhashi had a decision-making role in selecting the members’ ideas within the performance. Since then, S/N has had plural subjects of creation; however, Furuhashi is one of the subjects of creation along with the “privileged author.” S/N has plural authors (diffusive authors) yet at the same time, it has a “privileged author,” Teiji Furuhashi (cohesive author)
Identities related to special polynomials and combinatorial numbers
The aim of this paper is to give some new identities and relations related to
the some families of special numbers such as the Bernoulli numbers, the
Euler numbers, the Stirling numbers of the first and second kinds, the
central factorial numbers and also the numbers y1(n,k,?) and y2(n,k,?)
which are given Simsek [31]. Our method is related to the functional
equations of the generating functions and the fermionic and bosonic p-adic
Volkenborn integral on Zp. Finally, we give remarks and comments on our
results.</jats:p

Recurrence relations, associated formulas, and combinatorial sums for some parametrically generalized polynomials arising from an analysis of the Laplace transform and generating functions
The aim of this paper is to obtain some interesting infinite series representations for the Apostol-type parametrically generalized polynomials with the aid of the Laplace transform and generating functions. In particular, by using the method of generating functions, we derive not only recurrence relations, but also several other formulas, identities, and relations as well as combinatorial sums for these parametrically generalized numbers and polynomials and for other known special numbers and polynomials. These identities, relations and combinatorial sums are related to the two-parameter types of the Apostol-Bernoulli polynomials of higher order, the two-parameter types of Apostol-Euler polynomials of higher order, the two-parameter types of Apostol-Genocchi polynomials of higher order, the Apostol-Bernoulli polynomials of higher order, the Apostol-Euler polynomials of higher order, the Apostol-Genocchi polynomials of higher order, the cosine- and sine-Bernoulli polynomials, the cosine- and sine-Euler polynomials, the lambda-array-type polynomials, the lambda-Stirling numbers, the polynomials C-n(x,y)Cn(x,y), and the polynomials S-n(x,y)Sn(x,y). Finally, we present several new recurrence relations for these special polynomials and numbers.Scientific Research Project Administration of the University of AkdenizThe author Y.

Dissipative Range Scaling of Higher Order Structure Functions for Velocity and Passive Scalars
Differently to Kolmogorov's second similarity hypothesis, we find that the 2n-th order velocity and scalar structure functions scale with n-th order moment of the energy dissipation and the scalar dissipation, respectively. The origins of this scaling are analyzed by the transport equations of the fourth order velocity and scalar increment moments and by direct numerical simulations
