On a Stochastic Approach to Extensions of the Susceptible-Infected-Susceptible (SIS) Model Applied to Malaria by Abdoul Karim Drabo, Frédéric Bere, S. P. Clovis Nitiema

“…We first calculated the basic reproduction number R0 of the models ShIhRhSh‐SvIv and ShLhIhRhSh‐SvLvIv in order to show that the malaria-free equilibrium is asymptotically stable; then, we used a finite Markov chain model to describe the interactions between the different compartments of the model SeLeIeReSe‐SaLaIaRaSa‐SvIv. …”

On F-Algebras Mp  (1<p<∞) of Holomorphic Functions by Romeo Meštrović

“…The space Mp equipped with the topology given by the metric ρp defined by ρp(f,g)=f-gp=∫02π‍logp1+Mf-gθdθ/2π1/p, with f,g∈Mp and Mfθ=sup0⩽r<1⁡f(reiθ), becomes an F-space. By a result of Stoll (1977), the Privalov space Np (1<p<∞) with the topology given by the Stoll metric dp is an F-algebra. …”

Family management and Industry 4.0: Different effects in different geographical areas? An analysis of the less developed regions in Italy by Marco Pini

“…Using probit models, the results show that while in the more advanced area (center-north) external management affects the propensity for innovation significantly, in the less developed area (Southern Italy) external management requires an additional and simultaneous investment in R&D to drive a firm’s innovation. This suggests that innovation policy should define incentives that also help enhance new management business models and take into account behavioral features of different firms in relation to the level of the development of the geographical areas in which they operate.…”

On the small scale nonlinear theory of operator spaces by Braga, Bruno M., Chávez-Domínguez, Javier Alejandro

“…The authors have previously shown that a map between operator spaces which is completely coarse (that is, the sequence of its amplifications is equi-coarse) must be $\mathbb{R}$-linear. We obtain a generalization of the aforementioned result to completely coarse maps defined on the unit ball of an operator space. …”

Positive Solutions for Some Competitive Fractional Systems in Bounded Domains by Imed Bachar, Habib Mâagli, Noureddine Zeddini

“…Using some potential theory tools and the Schauder fixed point theorem, we prove the existence and precise global behavior of positive continuous solutions for the competitive fractional system (−Δ|D)α/2u+p(x)uσvr=0, (−Δ|D)α/2v+q(x)usvβ=0 in a bounded C1,1-domain D in ℝn (n≥3), subject to some Dirichlet conditions, where 0<α<2, σ,β≥1,s,r≥0. The potential functions p,q are nonnegative and required to satisfy some adequate hypotheses related to the Kato class of functions Kα(D).…”
