On the evolution of the model of shifting mode of reproduction by V. I. Maevsky, S. Yu. Malkov, A. A. Rubinstein

“…Objective: to analyze the evolution of shifting mode of reproduction (SMR) models, to construct the SMR-3 model. Methods: abstract-logical method, methods of modelling the economic dynamics in relation to the switching regime of reproduction of fixed capital.Results: despite the fact that fixed capital is necessarily taken into account both in reproduction schemes and in models of economic growth, the peculiarities of economy functioning arising from the coexistence of different generations of fixed capital have remained outside both the economic mainstream and heterodox studies. …”

On solutions of certain compatible systems of quadratic trinomial Partial differential-difference equations by R. Mandal, R. Biswas

“…if $f$, $g$ are finite order entire functions satisfying the system, where $m_1,m_2,n_1,n_2\in\mathbb{N}\setminus\{1\} .$\ Taking into the account the idea of the quadratic trinomial equations, a new system of quadratic trinomial equations has been constructed as follows: $\begin{cases} f^{m_1}+2\alpha f g+g^{n_1}=1;\\ f^{m_2}+2\alpha f g+g^{n_2}=1,\end{cases}$ \!…”
