(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014) -
Asymptotic behavior of higher-order quasilinear neutral differential equations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)We study asymptotic behavior of solutions to a class of higher-order quasilinear neutral differential equations under the assumptions that allow applications to even- and odd-order differential equations with delayed and ... -
Oscillatory behavior of second-order nonlinear neutral differential equations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)We study oscillatory behavior of solutions to a class of second-order nonlinear neutral differential equations under the assumptions that allow applications to differential equations with delayed and advanced arguments. ... -
Rockefeller philanthropy and mathematical emigration between World Wars
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)This article discusses one aspect of Rockefeller support for mathematics: the emigration of mathematicians from Europe. For the broader policies of the Rockefeller philanthropies for internationalization of mathematics, ... -
Using assessment for learning mathematics with mobile tablet based solutions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)This article discusses assessment for learning in mathematics subjects. Teachers of large classes face the challenge of regularly assessing students’ ongoing mathematical learning achievements. Taking the complexity of ... -
Oscillation theorems for second-order nonlinear neutral delay differential equations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)We analyze the oscillatory behavior of solutions to a class of second-order nonlinear neutral delay differential equations. Our theorems improve a number of related results reported in the literature. -
Mathematics teaching development: Learning from developmental research in Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)This paper is a product of mathematics teaching developmental research projects based on establishing communities of inquiry comprising schoolteachers working at all grades and university-based teacher educator/researchers ... -
On the thermal instability in a horizontal rectangular porous channel heated from below by a constant flux
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)The onset of thermoconvective instability in a rectangular horizontal channel filled with a fluid-saturated porous medium is studied. The channel is heated from below with a constant flux. The top wall is maintained at a ... -
Asymptotic behavior of an odd-order delay differential equation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)We study asymptotic behavior of solutions to a class of odd-order delay differential equations. Our theorems extend and complement a number of related results reported in the literature. An illustrative example is provided. -
