One of them is Hilton Hotel——it has been trying to adapt to changes of the external environment, at the same time taking more efficient use of local resources, in order to enhance its advantage in the competition. Through access to a large amount of readings, this paper analyzes Hilton Hotel's operating strategies in four aspects, from the expansion of the franchise market,the brand diversified development model, smiling brand image, to the innovation and personalized services.展开更多

We also investigate a method to construct new comultiplications out of old ones by using a group action. We are primarily interested in the algebraic loops which have inversive, power-associative and Moufang properties for some comultiplications.展开更多

We are primarily interested in the size of this set and properties of the comultiplications such as associativity and commutativity. Our methods involve Whitehead products in wedges of spheres and the Hopf-Hilton invariants. We apply our results to specific examples and determine the number of comultiplications, associative comultiplications and commutative comultiplications in these cases.展开更多
