Mathematical modeling of flood wave: a case study of Budalang’i flood plain basin in Busia county, Kenya
(Maseno university, 2022)Flooding is a worldwide problem with more adverse effects in developing countries. In Kenya, severe flooding is experienced on the lower tributaries of Lake Victoria, mainly Budalang’i area. This is indicated in the ... -
A Metapopulation ModelfFor Cholera With Variable Media Efficacy and Imperfect Vaccine
(Maseno University, 2021)Cholera, a diarrheal disease caused by a pathogenic virulent bacteria known as Vibrio cholerae, a_ects both children and adults and can kill within hours if left untreated. It continues to persist in developing coun- tries ... -
Model selection in generalized estimating Equations based on kullback’s i-divergence
(Maseno University, 2020)The method of Generalized Estimating Equations (GEE) is often used in analyzing correlated longitudinal data and does provide consistent estimates which are robust to misspecification of the working correlation structure. ... -
Modeling Mechanistic-Empirical Road Design: The Case for Kenyan Roads
(Maseno University, 2011)Regular revision of road design manuals is a recommended practice in pavement management, and Kenya has recently completed a review of hers. The outcome of the process is an enhanced but empirical manual with rigid ... -
Modelling delay in migration for constant predator And predator-density-dependent prey migration
(Maseno University, 2020)ABSTRACT Predator-prey models describe the dynamics of ecological systems in which two species, the predator and the prey, interact. The classical Lotka-Volterra model is the simplest predator-prey model. Migration of ... -

Network Modelling of Infectious Diseases
(Maseno University, 2014)Mathematical modelling of infectious diseases is an important tool for assessing disease dynamics. This branch of mathematics has provided many significant insights concerning the epidemiology of infectious diseases. ... -
Norms of generalized derivations on norm ideals
(Maseno University, 2019)The norms of inner and generalized derivations on different kinds of algebras have been determined. However, the norms of their restrictions to norm ideals have not been fully explored. For instance, the concept of ... -
Numerical Solutions of Burgers Equation Using Hybrid Methods
(Maseno University, 2016)Research on Burgers equation: u_t + 〖uu〗_x = 〖αu〗_xx which is a second order nonlinear partial differential equation is gaining interest for its application and mathematics itself. It arises in model studies of turbulence ... -
On completely positive maps
(Maseno University, 2015)Completely positive maps is an important field due to its significance, application and mathematics itself. While discussing the properties of the positive maps, researchers have questioned whether the properties of the ... -
On Joint Essential Numerical Ranges
(Maseno University, 2013)The concept of numerical range on a Hilbert space was first introduced by O. Toeplitz in 1918 for matrices. This notion was independently ex tended by G. Lumer and F. Bauer in the sixties on finite dimensional Banach ... -
On Schwarz norms
(Maseno University, 2015)Abstract Investigation of the properties of the numerical radius by Berger and Stampfli showed that indeed numerical radius norm is a Schwarz norm. Later on James P.Williams determined a family of distinct Schwarz norms ... -
On shifted Fibonacci sequences and Their polynomials
(Maseno University, 2020)Fibonacci sequences and their polynomials have been generalized mainly by two ways: by maintaining the recurrence relation and varying the initial conditions and by varying the recurrence relation and maintaining the ... -
Optimal investment strategies of a defined Contribution pension fund
(Maseno University, 2019)The issue that a pension fund manager faces is how to optimize his/her investment strategies. The question we solve is the optimal design of the minimum guarantee in a defined contribution pension Fund Scheme. We study ... -
(P, Q)-Summing Multipliers
(Maseno University, 2003)Summing multipliers is an important class of operators in the geometric theory of general Banach spaces. They are particularly useful in the study of the structure of the classical spaces. The work done by Grothendieck ... -
