On A Class of Idealized Near-Rings Admitting Frobenius Derivations.
(Journal of Advances in Mathematics and Computer Science, 2020-07-15)In this paper, we use the idealization procedure for finite rings to construct a class of quasi-3 prime Near-Rings N with a Jordan ideal J(N) and admitting a Frobenius derivation. The structural characterization of N; J(N) ... -
On Certain Spaces of Ideal Operators
(SCIENCE MUNDI, 2023-11-16)We determine some important spaces of ideal operators and ideal characteristics. Special consideration is given to Frechet spaces, Spaces of finite rank operators and spaces of Hahn-Banach extension operators. The ... -
On Characterization of Norm Attaining Operators in Fr´echet Spaces
(Journal of Advances in Mathematics and Computer Science, 2022-10-25)In this paper, the norm attaining operators in Fr´echet spaces are considered. These operators are characterized based on their density, normality, linearity and compactness. It is shown that the image is dense for a ... -
On Some Aspects of Compactness in Metric Spaces
(AFRICAN SCIENTIFIC ANNUAL REVIEW, 2024-04-17)In this paper, we investigate the generalizations of the concepts from Heine-Borel Theorem and the Bolzano-Weierstrass Theorem to metric spaces. We show that the metric space X is compact if every open covering has a finite ... -
ON THE ADJACENCY AND INCIDENCE MATRICES OF THE ZERO DIVISOR GRAPHS OF A CLASS OF THE SQUARE RADICAL ZERO FINITE COMMUTATIVE RINGS
(International Journal of Pure and Applied Mathematics, 2018-04-16)The characterization of the zero divisor graphs of commutative finite rings has attracted a lot of research for quite sometime, however not so much has been done concerning their Adjacency and Incidence matrices. In ... -
