Abstract.A topological space is pseudocompact if and only if every admissible uniformity is functionally determined. We construct, on the discrete countable space TV, an admissible (pseudo)-metric uniformity which is not functionally determined.
a b s t r a c tWe study a continuous model which describes the action of a velocity dependent drag on an oscillatory system. The solution of the resulting differential equation turns out to be asymptotic to a function which is expressible by means of the gamma and the hypergeometric functions. Among the applications, we consider that to the free oscillations around the fixed point which are ruled by van der Pol's equation. A section is devoted to computational procedures and simulations.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
