General Six-Step Discrete-Time Zhang Neural Network for Time-Varying Tensor Absolute Value Equations by Min Sun, Jing Liu

“…Secondly, based on the general ZeaD formula, we design a general six-step discrete-time ZNN (DTZNN) for time-varying tensor absolute value equations (TVTAVEs), whose steady-state residual error changes in a higher order manner than those presented in the literature. Meanwhile, the feasible region of its step size, which determines its convergence, is also studied. …”

Effective dimensionality of space-time in f(R)-general relativity with quantum boundary terms included by Mauricio Bellini

“…But perhaps the most intriguing of this phenomena is that these space-time alterations change the effective number of space-time dimensions of the system with perturbations included N(z), in a such manner that N(z) can take an irrational value $$N(z=2)=8/(1+\sqrt{5})\simeq 2.4721$$ N ( z = 2 ) = 8 / ( 1 + 5 ) ≃ 2.4721 , when the nonlinear quantum perturbations of space-time are related to the relativistic velocities $$\bar{U}^{\mu }$$ U ¯ μ . …”
