On Exponential Stability for a Class of Uncertain Neutral Markovian Jump Systems with Mode-Dependent Delays by Xinghua Liu, Hongsheng Xi

“…A novel augmented stochastic Lyapunov functional is constructed, which employs the improved bounding technique and contains triple-integral terms to reduce conservativeness; then the delay-range-dependent and rate-dependent exponential stability criteria are developed by Lyapunov stability theory, reciprocally convex lemma, and free-weighting matrices. …”

A Recent Development of Computer Methods for Solving Singularly Perturbed Boundary Value Problems by Manoj Kumar, Parul

“…This paper contains a surprisingly large amount of material and indeed can serve as an introduction to some of ideas and methods of singular perturbation theory. The work done in this area during the periods 1984–2000 and 2000–2005 has already been surveyed in 2002 and 2007 but our main objective is to produce a collection of important research articles of physical significance. …”

Biblical metaphor: the cosmic garden heritage by B. Green

“…Using as a sample trope the ancient Near Eastern and biblical figure of the cosmic garden where humans live with the gods until they are exiled, the article works out the implications of the image, using prophetic texts and cognitive theory. Briefly and generally, then, three other texts are considered: Genesis 2-3, Deuteronomy, Song of Songs, where the figure is present but signifying differently. …”
