Sequence Boundary:Its Significance in Stratigraphic Subdivision,Correlation and Classification

Sequence boundary is studied in detail in reference to the Permian Guadalupian Lopingian boundary, based on high resolution correlation of conodont zones. A conceptual synchronous stratigraphic boundary, corresponding to the age of the sequence boundary dated in the conformable portion of the sequence boundary, is defined as the sequence chronostratigraphic boundary (SCB). The sequence boundary is proved to be dual in nature in regards to tin-synchrony and diachroneity of stratigraphic boundaries. The merits of the sequence boundary in stratigraphic subdivision, correlation and classification are elucidated in comparison with the lithostratigraphic boundary, the biostratigraphic boundary and the traditional approach of the global stratotype section and point (GSSP ). By integrating the virtues of the sequence boundary and the GSSP, it is proposed that the GSSP should be established in the conformable portion of the related sequence boundary. The boundary established in light of this approach is defined as the best natural boundary. The analysis of the sequence boundary leads to the conclusion that sequence stratigraphy is a regional and transitional stratigraphic system between local lithostratigraphy and global chronostratigraphy. Therefore, a new tripartite stratigraphic classification scheme is tentatively proposed.

CONVERGENT PROBLEM OF ITERATIVE SEQUENCES FOR NONLINEAR MAPPINGS WITH ERROR MEMBERS IN BANACH SPACES

In this paper,the approximation problems of Ishikawa iteration with errors of fixed points for asymptotically nonexpansive mappings and asymptotically pseudocontractive mappings in arbitrary real Banach spaces are investigated.Some necessary condition and sufficient condition for the convergence of iterative sequences are given respectively.The results thus extend and improve some recent corresponding results.

A Cyclic Probabilistic C-Contraction Results using Hadzic and Lukasiewicz T-Norms in Menger Spaces

In this paper, we introduce generalized cyclic C-contractions through p number of subsets of a probabilistic metric space and establish two fixed point results for such contractions. In our first theorem we use the Hadzic type t-norm. In our next theorem we use Lukasiewicz t-norm. Our results generalize the results of Choudhury and Bhandari [11]. A control function [3] has been utilized in our second theorem. The results are illustrated with some examples.

The numerical method of Fourier eigen transform and its application in seismicity analysis

This paper′s aim is to study the numerical method of Fourier eigen transform. The characteristics of eigen bases, the Hermite function are analyzed. And a valuable result of eigen coefficients a n by means of Gauss Hermite integral is gotten. Through talking about amplitude frequency peculiarities of basic signals, we prove that the method applied in this paper possesses higher precision and smaller computation quantity. Finally, we conducted quasi real time FET analysis in seismicity, tentatively probed into the feasibility of FET in seismic prediction, obtained something of practical value.

A multiscale-contour-based interpolation framework for generating a time-varying quasi-dense point cloud sequence

To speed up the reconstruction of 3D dynamic scenes in an ordinary hardware platform, we propose an efficient framework to reconstruct 3D dynamic objects using a multiscale-contour-based interpolation from multi-view videos. Our framework takes full advantage of spatio-temporal-contour consistency. It exploits the property to interpolate single contours, two neighboring contours which belong to the same model, and two contours which belong to the same view at different times, corresponding to point-, contour-, and model-level interpolations, respectively. The framework formulates the interpolation of two models as point cloud transport rather than non-rigid surface deformation. Our framework speeds up the reconstruction of a dynamic scene while improving the accuracy of point-pairing which is used to perform the interpolation. We obtain a higher frame rate, spatio-temporal-coherence, and a quasi-dense point cloud sequence with color information. Experiments with real data were conducted to test the efficiency of the framework.

On a Class of Uniformly Distributed Sequences of Point Sets

In this note we construct certain sequences of finite point sets in [0, 1) s (s ≥ 1) and give the upper bounds of their discrepancy. Furthermore we prove that these sequences are uniformly distrbuted in [0, 1) s .

Ruin Probability and Joint Distributions of Some Actuarial Random Vectors in the Compound Pascal Model

The compound negative binomial model, introduced in this paper, is a discrete time version. We discuss the Markov properties of the surplus process, and study the ruin probability and the joint distributions of actuarial random vectors in this model. By the strong Markov property and the mass function of a defective renewal sequence, we obtain the explicit expressions of the ruin probability, the finite-horizon ruin probability, the joint distributions of T, U（T - 1）, ｜U（T）｜ and inf U（n） （i.e., the time of ruin, the surplus immediately before ruin, the deficit at ruin and maximal deficit from ruin to recovery） and the distributions of some actuarial random vectors.
