    Abstract: Recently, some combinatorial properties for the the Catalan-Larcombe-French numbers have been proved by Sun and Wu, and Zhao. Recently, Z. W. Sun conjectured that the root of the Catalan-Larcombe-French numbers is log-concave. In this paper, we confirm Sun's conjecture by establishing the lower and upper bound for the ratios of the Catalan-Larcombe... Show More

    Abstract: The model of economic dynamics, consisting of two units that produce, respectively, means of production and objects of commodities. It is assumed that the trajectory of еру model with a fixed budget admits characteristics and has an equilibrium state. These conditions allow us to construct effective trajectories of the model with the help of the eq... Show More

    Abstract: The most popular methods for the solution of stiff initial value problems for ordinary differential equations are the backward differentiation formulae (BDF). In this paper, we focus on the derivation of the fourth, sixth and eighth order extended trapezoidal rule of first kind (ETRs) formulae through Hermite polynomial as basis function which we n...

    Abstract: Interest in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM)-based courses at tertiary institution is on a steady decline. To curd this trend, among others, teaching and learning of STEM subjects must be made less mental tasking. This can be achieved by the aid of technical computing software. In this study, a novel approach to explaining an... Show More
