A Trust Value Sharing Scheme in Heterogeneous Identity Federation Topologies

Recent developments in heterogeneous identity federation systems have heightened the need for the related trust management system.The trust management system evaluates,manages,and shares users’trust values.The service provider(SP)members of the federation system rely on users’trust values to determine which type and quality of service will be provided to the users.While identity federation systems have the potential to help federated users save time and energy and improve service experience,the benefits also come with significant privacy risks.So far,there has been little discussion about the privacy protection of users in heterogeneous identity federation systems.In this paper,we propose a trust value sharing scheme based on a proxy ring signature for the trust management system in heterogeneous identity federation topologies.The ring signature schemes can ensure the validity of the data and hide the original signer,thereby protecting privacy.Moreover,no group manager participating in the ring signature,which naturally matches with our decentralized heterogeneous identity federation topologies.The proxy signature can reduce the workload of the private key owner.The proposed scheme shortens the calculation time for verifying the signature and then reduces the overall time consumption in the process of trust sharing.Our studies prove that the proposed scheme is privacy-preserving,efficient,and effective.

On meromorphic functions sharing one value

The uniqueness of meromorphic functions with one sharing value and an equality on deficiency is studied. We show that if two nonconstant meromorphic functions f(z) and g(z) satisfy δ(0,f)+δ(0,g)+δ(∞,f)+δ(∞,g)=3 or δ 2(0,f)+δ 2(0,g)+δ 2(∞,f)+δ 2(∞,g)=3, and E(1,f)=E(1,g) then f(z),g(z) must be one of five cases.

ON THE SHARING VALUES OF ALGEBROID FUNCTIONS AND THEIR DERIVATIVES

In this paper, we define the shared value of an algebroid function and its derivative on its Riemann surface. By considering the relationship between the shared values and the branch points of algebroid functions and their derivatives, we obtain some uniqueness theorems of algebroid functions sharing values with their derivatives, which extend 3 IM shared values theorem of nonconstant meromorphic functions and their derivatives obtained by Mues-Steinmetz and Gundersen.

Our main result is the supplementary of a related result due to Li and Yi(Li X M, Yi H X. Uniqueness of meromorphic functions sharing a meromorphic function of a small order with their derivatives. Ann. Polon. Math., 2010, 98(3):201–219).

If f^n＋ af^（k）and g^n＋ ag^（k）share b CM and the b-points of f^n＋ af^（k）are not the zeros of f and g, then f and g are either equal or closely related.

Curating Spaces of Hope: Coproducing Shared Values in Uncertain Times

This paper sets out a new paradigm of faith based organisation(FBO)called Curating Spaces of Hope.The paper sets out the paradigm and the interdisciplinary literatures into which the paradigm is applied namely,the diversifying belief landscape in the UK,the postsecular,the redefinition of FBOs,and liminality as the new norm in policy.The paper then turns to ethnographic research to evidence the ability of the paradigm to map and coproduce shared values,before considering applications of Curating Spaces of Hope in post-pandemic contexts in the north west of England through case studies with ecumenical Christian,non-religious,and Turkish Muslim and interfaith contexts.

Meromorphic Functions Sharing Two Values

Let f and g be two nonconstant meromorphic functions,and n be a positive integer.If f^(n)(z)and g^(n)(z)share 1 CM(counting multiplicities),f(z)and g(z)share∞IM(ignoring multiplicities),and N(r,1f)+N(r,1g)=S(r,f)+S(r,g),then either f(z)≡tg(z)or f(z)g(z)≡t,where t^(n)=1.As an application,shared values problems of a meromorphic function related to its shifts and difference operators are also investigated.

Research on Improving Customer Value by Using QCC in Drugstores Based on Customer Life Cycle

Objective To build a model to improve the customer value of drugstores,so as to enhance their core competitiveness and share the value between drugstores and customers.Methods The quality control circle(QCC)was used to establish the model based on the theory of customer life cycle.According to recency-frequencymonetary(RFM)model,a general value index evaluation system was constructed for customers in different life cycles,and an example was studied.Results and Conclusion The flow model of drugstore customer management system and the method of evaluating the customer value were designed.Taking the activities of the QCC in a drugstore as an example,the deficiencies of pharmaceutical care such as medication consultation,shortage of drug supply and irrational drug display were improved.It also promoted the transformation of customers from a starting period into stable period and improved the comprehensive value of customers,indicating that QCC was effective.Drugstores should carry out the QCC activities with different themes according to the characteristics of customers in different life circles.Meanwhile,suggestions from customers on improving the environment and facilities,service quality and management mechanism of the drugstores should be effectively adopted to promote the transformation of customers from the starting period to the stable period for the realization of the highest value.This will bring economic value to drugstores and achieve the value sharing between drugstores and customers.

NORMAL FAMILIES AND SHARED VALUES OF HOLOMORPHIC FUNCTIONS

Let F be a family of holomorphic functions in a domain D, k be a positive integer, a, b（≠0）, c（≠0） and d be finite complex numbers. If, for each f∈F, all zeros of f-d have multiplicity at least k, f^（k） = a whenever f=0, and f=c whenever f^（k） = b, then F is normal in D. This result extends the well-known normality criterion of Miranda and improves some results due to Chen-Fang, Pang and Xu. Some examples are provided to show that our result is sharp.

Letf（z） be a nonconstant entire function of finite order, c be a nonzero finite complex constant, and n be a positive integer.
