In this paper for a given prescribed Ritz values that satisfy in the some special conditions, we find a symmetric nonnegative matrix, such that the given set be its Ritz values.

In this paper, we establish the existence and uniqueness result of the linear Schrodinger equation with Marchaud fractional derivative in Colombeau generalized algebra. The purpose of introducing Marchaud fractional derivative is regularizing it in Colombeau sense.

For two normal edge-transitive Cayley graphs on groups H and K which have no common direct factor and $gcd(|H/H^prime|,|Z(K)|)=1=gcd(|K/K^prime|,|Z(H)|)$, we consider four standard products of them and it is proved that only tensor product of factors can be normal edge-transitive.

We characterize compact composition operators on real Banach spaces of complex-valued bounded Lipschitz functions on metric spaces, not necessarily compact, with Lipschitz involutions and determine their spectra.

In this paper we investigate some hereditary properties of amenability modulo an ideal of Banach algebras. We show that if $(e_alpha)_alpha$ is a bounded approximate identity modulo I of a Banach algebra A and X is a neo-unital modulo I, then $(e_alpha)_alpha$ is a bounded approximate identity for X. Moreover we show that amenability modulo an ideal of a Banach algebra A can be only considered by the neo-unital modulo I Banach algebra over A.

In some data envelopment analysis (DEA) applications, some inputs of DMUs have negative values with positive cost. This paper generalizes the global cost Malmquist productivity index to compare the productivity of dierent DMUs with negative inputs in any two periods of times under variable returns to scale (VRS) technology, and then the generalized index is decomposed to several components. The obtained components are computed using the nonparametric linear programming models, known as DEA. To illustrate the generalized index and its components, a numerical example at three successive periods of time is given.
