In this paper, we present novel advancements in the theory of bicomplex hypergeometric functions and their applications. We extend the hypergeometric function to bicomplex parameters, analyse its convergence region, and define its integral and derivative representations. Furthermore, we delve into the k-Riemann–Liouville fractional integral and derivative within a bicomplex operator, proving several significant theorems. The developed bicomplex hypergeometric functions and bicomplex fractional operators are demonstrated to have practical applications in various fields. This paper also highlights the essential concepts and properties of bicomplex numbers, special functions, and fractional calculus. Our results enhance the overall comprehension and possible applications of bicomplex numbers in mathematical analysis and applied sciences, providing a solid foundation for future research in this field.

This paper considered a functional model which splits to two types of equations, mainly, advance equation and delay equation. The advance equation was solved using an analytical approach. Different types of solutions were obtained for the advance equation under specific conditions of the model’s parameters. These solutions included the polynomial solutions of first and second degrees, the periodic solution and the hyperbolic solution. The periodic solution was invested to establish the analytical solution of the delay equation. The characteristics of the solution of the present model were discussed in detail. The results showed that the solution was continuous in the domain of the problem, under a restriction on the given initial condition, while the first derivative was discontinuous at a certain point and lied within the domain of the delay equation. In addition, some existing results in the literature were recovered as special cases of the current ones. The present successful analysis can be further generalized to include complex functional equations with an arbitrary function as an inhomogeneous term. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Commercial aircraft fault diagnosis is an important means to ensure the reliability and safety of commercial aircraft. Traditional knowledge-driven and data-driven fault diagnosis methods lack interpretability in engineering mechanisms, making them difficult to promote and apply. To address the issue of lack of interpretability, this paper conducts a fault knowledge graph for commercial aircraft fault diagnosis, using the fault logic in the logic diagram to increase the interpretability of diagnostic work. Firstly, to avoid the inefficiency of logic diagram applications, an executable logic diagram model is established, which can perform mathematical analysis and achieve fault diagnosis and localization using operational data as input. Then, the logic diagram is sorted out to obtain the hidden fault knowledge in the logic diagram, which is used to construct a fault knowledge graph to help achieve cause localization and rapid troubleshooting. The methods proposed in this paper are all validated through case studies of abnormal low-pressure faults in domestic commercial aircraft hydraulic systems. The results show that the logic diagram model can perform model simulation and fault diagnosis based on operational data, and the fault knowledge graph can quickly locate abnormal monitoring parameters and guide troubleshooting work based on existing information.

Nonstandard finite-difference (NSFD) methods, pioneered by R. E. Mickens, offer accurate and efficient solutions to various differential equation models in science and engineering. NSFD methods avoid numerical instabilities for large time steps, while numerically preserving important properties of exact solutions. However, most NSFD methods are only first-order accurate. This paper introduces two new classes of explicit second-order modified NSFD methods for solving n-dimensional autonomous dynamical systems. These explicit methods extend previous work by incorporating novel denominator functions to ensure both elementary stability and second-order accuracy. This paper also provides a detailed mathematical analysis and validates the methods through numerical simulations on various biological systems. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we state that generalized convexity, invex sets, and the Fr'echet differentiability assumption associated with curvilinear integral type functionals represent some necessary and sufficient mathematical tools for establishing various connections between the solutions of some robust (weak) vector commanded variational inequalities and (weak, proper) robust efficient solutions of the corresponding multi-objective variational control problem. In addition, the physical motivation of the problem under investigation is formulated in the illustrative application given at the end of this paper. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, the Cauchy problem for the nonlinear Schrodinger system {idtu1(x,t)== ∆u1(x, t)− |u1(x, t)| p−1u1(x, t)− |u2(x, t)| p−1u1(x, t), idtu2(x, t) = ∆u2(x, t) − |u2(x, t)| p−1u2(x, t) − |u1(x, t)| p−1u2(x, t), was investigated in d space dimensions. For 1 < p ≤ 1 + 2/d, the nonexistence of asymptotically free solutions for the nonlinear Schrödinger system was proved based on mathematical analysis and scattering theory methods. The novelty of this paper was to give the proof of pseudo-conformal identity on the nonlinear Schrödinger system. The present results improved and complemented these of Bisognin, Sepúlveda, and Vera(Appl. Numer. Math. 59(9)(2009): 2285–2302), in which they only proved the nonexistence of asymptotically free solutions when d = 1, p = 3. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The Internet of Things (IoT) is the underlying technology that has enabled connecting daily apparatus to the Internet and enjoying the facilities of smart services. IoT marketing is experiencing an impressive 16.7% growth rate and is a nearly USD 300.3 billion market. These eye-catching figures have made it an attractive playground for cybercriminals. IoT devices are built using resource-constrained architecture to offer compact sizes and competitive prices. As a result, integrating sophisticated cybersecurity features is beyond the scope of the computational capabilities of IoT. All of these have contributed to a surge in IoT intrusion. This paper presents an LSTM-based Intrusion Detection System (IDS) with a Dynamic Access Control (DAC) algorithm that not only detects but also defends against intrusion. This novel approach has achieved an impressive 97.16% validation accuracy. Unlike most of the IDSs, the model of the proposed IDS has been selected and optimized through mathematical analysis. Additionally, it boasts the ability to identify a wider range of threats (14 to be exact) compared to other IDS solutions, translating to enhanced security. Furthermore, it has been fine-tuned to strike a balance between accurately flagging threats and minimizing false alarms. Its impressive performance metrics (precision, recall, and F1 score all hovering around 97%) showcase the potential of this innovative IDS to elevate IoT security. The proposed IDS boasts an impressive detection rate, exceeding 98%. This high accuracy instills confidence in its reliability. Furthermore, its lightning-fast response time, averaging under 1.2 s, positions it among the fastest intrusion detection systems available. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Agriculture was and remains the support of human existence, representing the backbone of the Romanian rural economy. The gross domestic product represents a macroeconomic indicator of results, being the consequence of the efficient use of resources. In this context, the authors analyze the place that agriculture holds in achieving the gross domestic product in Romania compared to the European Union, as well as its dynamics. In this sense, the share of resources in the formation of the gross domestic product in the period 2000-2022 is presented. The main research methods used for this work are: analysis, synthesis, comparison and mathematical analysis. From the analysis carried out, conclusive ideas emerge, and the article becomes even more suggestive, in that it is accompanied by tables synthesized by the authors and relevant graphics that highlight and support the assessments that the authors make in the content of this article. At the end of the paper, the authors emphasize the fact that the GDP is the most complex indicator that reflects the transformations that the Romanian economy has gone through in recent years. From the point of view of the use of resources, it can be seen that the share of the agricultural sector has registered a downward evolution, which can be largely explained by the increase in the importance of industry and the service sector in the overall national economy.

In this paper, we consider homogeneous quasideviation means generated by real functions (defined on (0, ∞)) which are concave around the point 1 and possess certain upper estimates near 0 and ∞. It turns out that their concave envelopes can be completely determined. Using this description, we establish su˚cient conditions for the Hardy property of the homogeneous quasideviation mean and we also furnish an upper estimates for its Hardy constant.

Fuzzy logic is becoming one of the most-influential fields of modern mathematics with applications that impact not only other sciences, but society in general. This newly found interest in fuzzy logic is in part due to the crucial role it plays in the development of artificial intelligence. As a result, new tools and practices for the development of the above-mentioned field are in high demand. This is one of the issues this paper was composed to address. To be more specific, a sizable part of fuzzy logic is the study of fuzzy connectives. However, the current method used to generalize them is restricted to the use of basic automorphisms, which hinders the creation of new fuzzy connectives. For this reason, in this paper, a new method of generalization is conceived of that aims to generalize the fuzzy connectives using polynomial automorphism functions instead. The creation of these automorphisms is achieved through numerical analysis, an endeavor that is supported with programming applications that, using mathematical modeling, validate and visualize the research. Furthermore, the automorphisms satisfy all the necessary criteria that have been established for use in the generalization process and, consequently, are used to successfully generalize fuzzy connectives. The result of the new generalization method is the creation of new usable and flexible fuzzy connectives, which is very promising for the future development of the field. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract: In this short note we point to an error in the proof of a theorem stated in [L. Balková, E. Pelantová, Š. Starosta, On Brlek-Reutenauer conjecture, Theoret. Comput. Sci. 412 (2011) 5649–5655]. By constructing a counterexample, we show that the assertion of the theorem is actually incorrect. Although this theorem is of a technical character, it was used in an argument leading to a corollary of a general interest to the Brlek-Reutenauer conjecture, and thus as a consequence of this note we have that the proof of the mentioned corollary is also flawed.

In our paper, we propose a generalized version of the Alternating Projections Digital Hard Successive Interference Cancellation (AP-HSIC) algorithm that is capable of decoding any order of constellation M in an M-Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) system. Our approach applies to Rayleigh deep-fading Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) channels with high-level Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN). It can handle various destructive phenomena without restricting the number of antenna arrays in the transmitter/receiver. Importantly, it does not rely on closed-loop MIMO feedback or the need for Channel-State Information Transmission (CSIT). We have demonstrated the effectiveness of our approach and provided a Bit Error Rate (BER) analysis for 16-, 32-, and 64-QAM modulation systems. Real-time simulations showcase the differences and advantages of our proposed algorithm compared to the Multi-Group Space-Time Coding (MGSTC) decoding algorithm and the Lagrange Multipliers Hard Successive Interference Cancellation (LM-HSIC) algorithm, which we have also developed here. Additionally, our paper includes a mathematical analysis of the LM-HSIC algorithm. The AP-HSIC algorithm is not only effective and fast in decoding, including interference cancellation computational feedback, but it can also be integrated with any Linear Processing Complex Orthogonal Design (LPCOD) technique, including Complex Orthogonal Design (COD) schemes such as high-order Orthogonal Space–Time Block Code (OSTBC) with high-order QAM symbols.

The history of variational calculus dates back to the late 17th century when Johann Bernoulli presented his famous problem concerning the brachistochrone curve. Since then, variational calculus has developed intensively as many problems in physics and engineering are described by equations from this branch of mathematical analysis. This paper presents two non-classical, distinct methods for solving such problems. The first method is based on the differential transform method (DTM), which seeks an analytical solution in the form of a certain functional series. The second method, on the other hand, is based on the physics-informed neural network (PINN), where artificial intelligence in the form of a neural network is used to solve the differential equation. In addition to describing both methods, this paper also presents numerical examples along with a comparison of the obtained results.Comparingthe two methods, DTM produced marginally more accurate results than PINNs. While PINNs exhibited slightly higher errors, their performance remained commendable. The key strengths of neural networks are their adaptability and ease of implementation. Both approaches discussed in the article are effective for addressing the examined problems. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The main contribution of this paper is to present a simple algorithm that theoretically and numerically assesses the switching angles of an inverter operated with the SPWM technique. This technique is the most widely used for eliminating harmonics in DC-AC converters for powering motors, renewable energy applications, household appliances, etc. Unlike conventional implementations of the SPWM technique based on the analog or digital comparison of a sinusoidal signal with a triangular signal, this paper mathematically performs this comparison. It proposes a simple solution to solve the transcendental equations arising from the mathematical analysis numerically. The technique is validated by calculating the total harmonic distortion (THD) of the generated signal theoretically and numerically, and the results indicate that the calculated angles produce the same distribution of harmonics calculated analytically and numerically. The algorithm is limited to single-phase inverters with unipolar SPWM. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper explores the Apéry-like series and demonstrates the derivation of closed-form expressions using fractional calculus. We consider a variety of Apéry-like functions, which were categorized by their functional forms and coefficients by applying the Riemann–Liouville fractional integral and derivative to examine their properties across various domains. The study focuses on establishing rigorous mathematical frameworks that unveil new insights into the behaviors of these series, contributing to a deeper understanding of number theory and mathematical analysis. Key results include proofs of convergence and divergence within specified intervals and the derivation of closed-form solutions through fractional integration and differentiation. This paper also introduces a method aimed at conjecturing mathematical constants through continued fractions as an application of our results. Finally, we provide the proof of validation for three unproven conjectures of continued fractions obtained from the Ramanujan Machine. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The aim of this paper is to study existence results for a singular problem involving the p-biharmonic operator and the Hardy potential. More precisely, by combining monotonicity arguments with the variational method, the existence of solutions is established. By using the Nehari manifold method, the multiplicity of solutions is proved. An example is also given to illustrate the importance of these results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Climate change has become a critical global issue and challenge, with significant implications for financial enterprises as an integral part of economic activities. A thorough analysis of the impact of climate change on the high-quality development of financial enterprises is of great importance for financial sustainability. This paper first conducts an indepth mathematical analysis of the intrinsic mechanisms through which climate change affects the high-quality development of financial enterprises by establishing a game theory model. Secondly, using data from listed companies for the years 2000-2020, an econometric model is constructed to empirically examine the relationship between climate change and the high-quality development of financial enterprises. The research findings demonstrate that climate change significantly inhibits the highquality development of financial enterprises, as evidenced by robust results obtained through various methods such as data truncation, variable substitution, and changes in sample periods. Furthermore, this study addresses the endogeneity of the regression model using propensity score matching (PSM), instrumental variable methods, and system generalized method of moments (GMM). Additionally, climate change impacts the high-quality development of financial enterprises through technological innovation. Given the backdrop of climate change, understanding the relationship and logic between climate change and the high-quality development of financial enterprises and discerning the channels and mechanisms through which climate change affects their development are crucial. This research provides a new perspective and expands the research frontier on the high-quality development of financial enterprises, enriching the theoretical foundations in this field.

In this two-paper series, we prove the invariance of the Gibbs measure for a threedimensional wave equation with a Hartree nonlinearity. The novelty lies in the singularity of the Gibbs measure with respect to the Gaussian free field. In this paper, we focus on the dynamical aspects of our main result. The local theory is based on a paracontrolled approach, which combines ingredients from dispersive equations, harmonic analysis, and random matrix theory. The main contribution, however, lies in the global theory. We develop a new globalization argument, which addresses the singularity of the Gibbs measure and its consequences. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
