Scenario-based approach for project portfolio selection in army engineering and manufacturing development

The decisions concerning portfolio selection for army engineering and manufacturing development projects determine the benefit of those projects to the country concerned.Projects are typically selected based on ex ante estimates of future return values,which are usually difficult to specify or only generated after project launch.A scenario-based approach is presented here to address the problem of selecting a project portfolio under incomplete scenario information and interdependency constraints.In the first stage,the relevant dominance concepts of scenario analysis are studied to handle the incomplete information.Then,a scenario-based programming approach is proposed to handle the interdependencies to obtain the projects,whose return values are multi-criteria with interval data.Finally,an illustrative example of army engineering and manufacturing development shows the feasibility and advantages of the scenario-based multi-objective programming approach.

A RECOGNITION OF SIMPLE GROUPS PSL(3,q) BY THEIR ELEMENT ORDERS

For any group G, denote byπe(G) the set of orders of elements in G. Given a finite group G, let h(πe (G)) be the number of isomorphism classes of finite groups with the same set πe(G) of element orders. A group G is called k-recognizable if h(πe(G)) = k <∞, otherwise G is called non-recognizable. Also a 1-recognizable group is called a recognizable (or characterizable) group. In this paper the authors show that the simple groups PSL(3,q), where 3 < q≡±2 (mod 5) and (6, (q-1)/2) = 1, are recognizable.

Recognition of the Projective Special Linear Group over GF(3)

Let P be a finite group and denote by w（P） the set of its element orders. P is called k-recognizable by the set of its element orders if for any finte group G with ω（G） =ω（P） there are, up to isomorphism, k finite groups G such that G ≌P. In this paper we will prove that the group Lp（3）, where p 〉 3 is a prime number, is at most 2-recognizable.

Full automorphism group of the generalized symplectic graph

Let Fq be a finite field of odd characteristic, m, v the integers with 1 ≤ m ≤ v and K a 2v × 2v nonsingular alternate matrix over Fq. In this paper, the generalized symplectic graph GSp2v（q, m） relative to K over Fq is introduced. It is the graph with m-dimensional totally isotropic subspaces of the 2v-dimensional symplectic space Fq（2v） as its vertices and two vertices P and Q are adjacent if and only if the rank of PKQw is 1 and the dimension of P ∩ Q is m - 1. It is proved that the full automorphism group of the graph GSp2v（q, m） is the projective semilinear symplectic group P∑p（2v, q）.

Some new 3-designs from P SL(2,q) with q ≡ 1(mod 4)

We determine the sizes of orbits from the action of subgroups of PSL(2,q) on projective line X = GF(q) ∪ {∞} with q a prime power and congruent to 1 modulo 4.As an example of its application,we construct some new families of simple 3-designs admitting PSL(2,q) as automorphism group.

On variations of m, n-simply presented abelian p-groups

We define a few new classes of p-primary abelian groups,and study their crucial properties,one of which is the so-called Nunke’s-esque property.They are also closely related to n-simply presented groups from Keef and Danchev(2012)and m,n-simply presented groups from Keef and Danchev(2013).
