      The study of elementary operators has been of great interest to many mathematicians for the past two decades. Of special interest has been to determine the norms of these operators. The norm problem for elementary operators ...

    • Mathematics of Pesticide Adsorption in a Porous Medium: Convective-Dispersive Transport with steady state water flow In two Dimension 

      WETOYl, A.Seth Harrisson (Maseno university, 2007)
      The transport of solutes through porous media where chemicals undergo adsorption or change process on the surface of the porous materials has been a subject of research over years. Usage of pesticides has resulted in ...

    • Numerical solution of Korteweg-de vries equation 

      ONAM, Joel Otieno (Maseno university, 2008)
      The Kotteweg-de Vrr-es(KdV)is a mathematical model of waves on shallow water surfaces. The mathematical theory behind the KdV equation is rich and interesting, and, in the broad sense, is a topic of active mathematical ...

    • On a generalized q-numerical Range 

      Musundi, Sammy Wabomba (Maseno university, 2008)
      We 'consider numerical ranges of a bounded linear operator on complex Hilbert spaces. Many properties of the classical numerical range are known. We investigate the properties of the q-numerical range in relation to ...

    • Mathematical modelling of flood Wave: a case study of Budalang'i Flood plain basin in Busia county, Kenya 

      MUSINDAYI, Stephen Miheso (Maseno university, 2022)
      Flooding is a worldwide problem with more adverse e ects in developing countries. In Kenya, severe ooding is experienced on the lower tributaries of Lake Victoria, mainly Budalang'i area. This is indicated in the ...

    • Norms of elementary operators. 

      RUTO, Peter Kiptoo (Maseno university, 2010)
      The norm of an elementary operator has been investigated over long period by several mathematician under various special circumstances. Timoney working on algebra of bounded linear operators on Hilbert spaces, established ...

    • On completely bounded Operators 

      AMBOGO, David Otieno (2010)
      Calculating norms of matrices when the entries are not constants is the first problem tackled in this thesis. We have considered the space of matrices with entries from the algebra of bounded linear operators and ...
