On the Connections of Generalized Entropies With Shannon and Kolmogorov–Sinai Entropies

open access: yesEntropy, 2014
We consider the concept of generalized Kolmogorov–Sinai entropy, where instead of the Shannon entropy function, we consider an arbitrary concave function defined on the unit interval, vanishing in the origin.

Validation of the mathematics in the anaesthetic impact calculator, a smartphone app for the calculation the CO2e of inhalational anaesthesia

open access: yesAnaesthesia, 2019
The overall volume is then the sum of the FGF and the volume of vapour added downstream of the vaporisers. Assuming that volatile anaesthetic agents behave as ideal gases and obey Avogadro’s law, the mole fraction used per hour is the volume of vapour ...

Unique Common Fixed Point Theorems for Pairs of Hybrid Maps under a New Condition in Partial Metric Spaces

open access: yesDemonstratio Mathematica, 2014
In this paper, we introduce a new condition namely, ‘condition (W.C.C)’ and obtain two unique common fixed point theorems for pairs of hybrid mappings on a partial Hausdorff metric space without using any continuity and commutativity of the mappings.
