Models for Level Premiums Payable to Benevolent Funds
(Applied Mathematical Sciences, 2020)The application of multiple life actuarial calculations have been stud ied by many authours for instance Elizondo [3] studied the construction of multiple decrement models from associated single decrement expe riences.He ... -
On Generalized Fibonacci Numbers
(Communications in Advanced Mathematical Sciences, 2020)Fibonacci numbers 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 initial ... -
Refined enumeration of 2-noncrossing trees
(Academic Publishing House, 2021)A 2-noncrossing tree is a connected graph without cycles that can be drawn in the plane with its vertices on the boundary of circle such that the edges are straight line segments that do not cross and all the vertices ... -
On Noncrossing and Plane Tree-Like Structures
(Communications in Advanced Mathematical Sciences, 2021)Mathematical trees are connected graphs without cycles, loops and multiple edges. Various trees such as Cayley trees, plane trees, binary trees, d-ary trees, noncrossing trees among others have been studied extensively. ... -
Reachability results in labelled t-ary trees
(Open Journal of Mathematical Sciences, 2021)In this paper, we prove some new formulas in the enumeration of labelled t-ary trees by path lengths. We treat trees having their edges oriented from a vertex of lower label towards a vertex of higher label. Among other ... -
Effects of inclination angle and free convection on velocity profile for a steady 2-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic fluid flow in an inclined cylindrical pipe
(European Journal of Engineering and Technology Research, 2021)Effects of inclination and free convection on velocity profile for magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) fluid flow in an inclined cylindrical pipe has been investigated. The governing partial differential equations are the equations ... -
Influence of Teacher’s Perception of in-Service Program on Quality of Teaching Mathematics
(International Journal of Innovative Research and Development, 2020)Pre-service training is not adequate to last teachers for their entire career. Due to advancement in knowledge, technology and curriculum, teachers ought to update on teaching methodologies through In-service Education and ... -
Incremental Modernization of Statistics Teaching and Curriculum at Maseno University, Kenya
(International Association of Statistical Education, 2010)Modernisation of statistics teaching is a continual problem the world over. The advances in statistical methods and tools along with the growing demand of applied practitioners creates a dual need of people with the ... -
Velocity Profile for Magnetohydrodynamic Flow in Straight Horizontal Elliptical Pipe
(Applied Mathematical Sciences, 2021)Velocity profile for Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) fluid flow in a straight long pipe with elliptical cross section has been investigated. Governing equations are partial differential equations comprising Ohm’s law of ... -
Provable, Secure & Democratic Election Model
(INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENCES AND ENGINEERING, 2017)Democracy is founded on the principle of elections and opinion expression capabilities. Bimber & Leggewie foresaw e-democracy. Voting is an information transfer model. Trust is essential to communication channel but ... -
On the Zero Divisor Graphs of Finite Rings in Which the Product of Any Two Zero Divisors Lies in the Coefficient Subring
(Journal of Mathematics and Statistical Science, 2016)Let r be a positive integer and 2 ≤ ∈k . Let ( ) kr k GR p p, be a Galois ring of order kr p and characteristic k p . Consider, ( ) kr k R GR p p U = ,⊕ where U is a finitely generated ( ) kr k GR p p, module. If Z R( ... -
Recursive Relation for Zero In ated Poisson Mixture Distributions
(2017)The paper extends the work of Sarguta who derived recursive re- lations for univariate distributions by considering the ZIP continuous mixtures. The paper gives a recursive formular which can be used to evaluate the mixed ... -

Locally oriented noncrossing trees
(2015)We de ne an orientation on the edges of a noncrossing tree induced by the labels: for a noncrossing tree (i.e., the edges do not cross) with vertices 1; 2; : : : ; n arranged on a circle in this order, all edges are ... -
Combinatorics of oriented trees and tree-like structures
(Stellenbosch University, 2015)In this thesis, a number of combinatorial objects are enumerated. Du and Yin as well as Shin and Zeng (by a different approach) proved an elegant formula for the number of labelled trees with respect to a given in degree ... -
A STUDY OF ATTITUDES OF TEACHERS AND PUPILS TOWARD THE TEACHING AND LEARNING Of M~THEMATICS RESPECTIVELY IN UPPER PRIMARY SCHOOLS IN MASIMBA EDUCATIONAL ZONE, IRIANYI DIVISION, KISII DISTRICT (KENYA) •
(University of Kenyatta., 1986)The purpose of the study was to identify the attitudes held by the primary school teachers and pupils toward the teaching and learning of Mathematics respectively. The study was done at Masimba Educational zone, Irianyi ... -
Consistency Inference Property of QIC in Selecting the True Working Correlation Structure for Generalized Estimating Equations
(Science Publishing Group, 2019-06-29)Abstract: The generalized estimating equations (GEE) is one of the statistical approaches for the analysis of longitudinal data with correlated response. A working correlation structure for the repeated measures of the ... -
Spatial Comparison and Quality Check of Farmer-recorded Daily Rainfall Data; A Case of Nyakach and Soyain-sigowett, Ken
(Science Publishing Group, 2020-09-01)Abstract: Small scale farming is currently still heavily dependent on rainfall in developing nations. With the challenge of climate change, many innovations are proposed to help the farmers mitigate and adapt. The use of ... -
Fitting Time-series Models to Kisumu Rainfall Data for the Period 1961-2014
(Science Publishing Group, 2020-02-20)Abstract: Many small-scale farmers require adequate forecasts to help them plan for the rainfall. The National Meteorological Service provides forecasts seasonally, monthly and weekly. The forecasts are qualitative in ... -
