Abstract: In this paper, we establish some new Čebyšev type inequalities for functions whose modulus of the mixed derivatives are co-ordinated quasi-convex and \(\alpha\)-quasi-convex and \(s\)-quasi-convex functions.

Abstract: In this study, a mathematical model of dual latency compartments is developed to investigate the transmission dynamics of COVID-19 epidemic in Oyo state, Nigeria. The model consists of non-pharmaceutical control strategies which include the use of face masks, social-distancing and impact of mass-media on the spread of novel coronavirus in the state. Results indicate control reproduction number \(R_C = 1.4\) with possibilities of high constructive influence of mass-media. Thus, at the fitted values of \(\sigma _f = 0.1,\; \sigma _d = 0.1,\;\sigma _m = 0.6\), the peak of the COVID-19 epidemic is attained after 59,217 infectious quarantined individuals and 328,440 infectious but not quarantined individuals have contracted COVID-19 in about 439 and 443 days respectively from the date of the first incidence. Therefore, efforts on mass-media with programs that can inform the people on effective use of face masks, social-distancing and other safety measures can aid reduction of reproduction number to a value below 1 necessary for eradication of the disease.

Abstract: Graph labeling plays an important role in different branches of sciences. It gives useable information in the study of radar, missile and rocket theory. In scheme theory, coding theory and computer networking graph labeling is widely employed. In the present paper, we find necessary conditions for the octagonal planner map and multiple wheel graph to be super cyclic antimagic cover and then discuss their super cyclic antimagic covering.

Abstract: The double dispersive wave equation with memory and source terms \(u_{tt}-\Delta u-\Delta u_{tt}+\Delta^{2}u-\int_{0}^{t}g(t-\tau)\Delta^{2}u(\tau)d\tau-\Delta u_{t}=|u|^{p-2}u\) is considered in bounded domain. The existence of global solutions and decay rates of the energy are proved.
Development of a new numerical scheme for the solution of exponential growth and decay models
OMS-Vol. 5 (2021), Issue 1, pp. 18 – 26 Open Access Full-Text PDF
S. E. Fadugba
Abstract: This paper presents the development of a new numerical scheme for the solution of exponential growth and decay models emanated from biological sciences. The scheme has been derived via the combination of two interpolants namely, polynomial and exponential functions. The analysis of the local truncation error of the derived scheme is investigated by means of the Taylor’s series expansion. In order to test the performance of the scheme in terms of accuracy in the context of the exact solution, four biological models were solved numerically. The absolute error has been computed successfully at each mesh point of the integration interval under consideration. The numerical results generated via the scheme agree with the exact solution and with the fifth order convergence based upon the analysis carried out. Hence, the scheme is found to be of order five, accurate and is a good approach to be included in the class of linear explicit numerical methods for the solution of initial value problems in ordinary differential equations.
On new approximations for the modified Bessel function of the second kind \(K_0(x)\)
OMS-Vol. 5 (2021), Issue 1, pp. 11 – 17 Open Access Full-Text PDF
Francisco Caruso, Felipe Silveira
Abstract: A new series representation of the modified Bessel function of the second kind \(K_0(x)\) in terms of simple elementary functions (Kummer’s function) is obtained. The accuracy of different orders in this expansion is analysed and has been shown not to be so good as those of different approximations found in the literature. In the sequel, new polynomial approximations for \(K_0(x)\), in the limits \(0 < x \leq 2\) and \(2\leq x < \infty\), are obtained. They are shown to be much more accurate than the two best classical approximations given by the Abramowitz and Stegun's Handbook, for those intervals.
Refinements of two fractional versions of Hadamard inequalities for Caputo fractional derivatives and related results
OMS-Vol. 5 (2021), Issue 1, pp. 1 – 10 Open Access Full-Text PDF
Ghulam Farid, Atiq Ur Rehman, Sidra Bibi, Yu-Ming Chu
Abstract: The aim of this paper is to study the fractional Hadamard inequalities for Caputo fractional derivatives of strongly convex functions. We obtain refinements of two known fractional versions of the Hadamard inequality for convex functions. By applying identities for Caputo fractional derivatives we get refinements of error bounds of these inequalities. The given results simultaneously provide refinements as well as generalizations of already known inequalities.
Some basic properties of Sombor indices
ODAM-Vol. 4 (2021), Issue 1, pp. 1 – 3 Open Access Full-Text PDF
Ivan Gutman
Abstract: The recently introduced class of vertex-degree-based molecular structure descriptors, called Sombor indices (\(SO\)), are examined and a few of their basic properties established. Simple lower and upper bounds for \(SO\) are determined. It is shown that any vertex–degree–based descriptor can be viewed as a special case of a Sombor-type index.
On Adomian decomposition method for solving nonlinear ordinary differential equations of variable coefficients
OMS-Vol. 4 (2020), Issue 1, pp. 476 – 484 Open Access Full-Text PDF

Abstract: This paper considers the extension of the Adomian decomposition method (ADM) for solving nonlinear ordinary differential equations of constant coefficients to those equations with variable coefficients. The total derivatives of the nonlinear functions involved in the problem considered were derived in order to obtain the Adomian polynomials for the problems. Numerical experiments show that Adomian decomposition method can be extended as alternative way for finding numerical solutions to ordinary differential equations of variable coefficients. Furthermore, the method is easy with no assumption and it produces accurate results when compared with other methods in literature.
