In the 3-dimensional Euclidean space \(\mathbb{E}^{3}\) and Lorentzian-Minkowski space \(\mathbb{E}_{1}^{3},\) a translation and homothetical TH-surface is parameterized \(z(u,v)=A(f(u)+g(v))+Bf(u)g(v),\) where \(f\) and \(g\) are smooth functions and \(A\), \(B\) are non-zero real numbers. In this paper, we define TH-surfaces in the 3-dimensional Euclidean space \(\mathbb{E}^{3}\) and Lorentzian-Minkowski space \(\mathbb{E}_{1}^{3}\) and completely classify minimal or flat TH-surfaces.
Cervical cancer is a global threat with over half a million cases worldwide and over 200000 deaths annually. Sexual minority women are at risk for infection with human papillomavirus (HPV); the virus which causes cervical cancer, yet little is known about the prevalence of HPV infection. In this paper, the dynamics of HPV infection in the presence of vaccination among women which progresses to cervical cancer is investigated. The disease-free equilibrium state of the model is determined. Using the next generation method, the cancer reproduction number, \(R_0\), is computed in terms of the model parameters and used as a threshold value. The reproduction number is examined analytically for its sensitivity to the vaccination parameter having shown that it is locally and globally asymptotically stable for \(R_0<1\) and unstable for \(R_0>1\) at the disease free state. The centre manifold theorem is used to determine the stability of the endemic equilibrium and shown to exhibit a backward bifurcation phenomenon implying that cervical cancer due to HPV infection may persist in the population even if \(R_0<1\). Finally, numerical simulations are carried out to obtain analytical results. As prevalence estimates vary between sexual orientation dimensions, these findings help inform targeted HPV and cervical cancer prevention efforts.
The study of integral operators has always been important in the subjects of mathematics, physics, and in diverse areas of applied sciences. It has been challenging to discover and formulate new types of integral operators. The aim of this paper is to study and formulate an integral operator of a general nature. Under some suitable conditions the existence of a new integral operator is established. The boundedness of left and right sided integral operators is obtained and further boundedness of their sum is given. The investigated integral operators derive several known integrals and have interesting consequences for fractional calculus integral operators and conformable integrals. The presented results provide the boundedness of various fractional and conformable integral operators simultaneously.
A deterministic model for the transmission dynamics of two-strains Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) is developed and analyzed. Following the qualitative analysis of the model, reveals a globally asymptotically stable disease free equilibrium whenever a certain epidemiological threshold known as the reproduction number (\(\mathcal{R}_0\)), is less than unity and the disease persist in the population whenever this threshold exceed unity. However, it was shown that the endemic equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable for a special case. Numerical simulation of the model reveals that whenever \(\mathcal{R}_1<1<\mathcal{R}_2\), strain 2 drives strain 1 to extinction (competitive exclusion) but when \(\mathcal{R}_2<1<\mathcal{R}_1\), strain 1 does not drive strain 2 to extinction. Finally, it was shown numerically that super-infection increases the spread of HSV-2 in the model.
This work is concerned with the oscillatory behavior of fourth-order delay differential equation with middle term. By using the generalized Riccati transformations and new comparison principles, we establish new oscillation results for this equation. An example illustrating the results is also given.
Let \(G=(V,E)\) be a finite simple graph with \(v =|V(G)|\) vertices and \(e=|E(G)|\) edges. Further suppose that \(\mathbb{H}:=\{H_1, H_2, \dots, H_t\}\) is a family of subgraphs of \(G\). In case, each edge of \(E(G)\) belongs to at least one of the subgraphs \(H_i\) from the family \(\mathbb{H}\), we say \(G\) admits an edge-covering. When every subgraph \(H_i\) in \(\mathbb{H}\) is isomorphic to a~given graph \(H\), then the graph \(G\) admits an \(H\)-covering. A graph \(G\) admitting \(H\) covering is called an \((a,d)-H\)-antimagic if there is a bijection \(\eta:V\cup E \to \{1,2,\dots, v+e \}\) such that for each subgraph \(H’\) of \(G\) isomorphic to \(H\), the sum of labels of all the edges and vertices belongs to \(H’\) constitutes an arithmetic progression with the initial term \(a\) and the common difference \(d\). For \(\eta(V)= \{ 1,2,3,\dots,v\}\), the graph \(G\) is said to be super \((a,d)-H\)-antimagic and for \(d=0\) it is called \(H\)-supermagic. When the given graph \(H\) is a cycle \(C_m\) then \(H\)-covering is called \(C_m\)-covering and super \((a,d)-H\)-antimagic labeling becomes super \((a,d)-C_m\)-antimagic labeling. In this paper, we investigate the existence of super \((a,d)-C_m\)-antimagic labeling of book graphs \(B_n\), for \(m=4,\ n\geq2\) and for differences \(d=1, 2, 3, \dots,13\).
In this article, we study a class of the multilinear fractional integral with rough kernel on Morrey-Herz space with \(p(\cdot), q(\cdot), \alpha(\cdot).\) By using the properties of the variable exponent spaces, the boundedness of the multilinear fractional integral operator is obtained on variable nonhomogeneous Morrey-Herz spaces \({MK}_{q(\cdot),p(\cdot)}^{\alpha(\cdot),\lambda}(\mathbb{R}^{n}).\)
The major purpose of this article is to discuss the oscillatory flow of an incompressible viscous Maxwell fluids (IVMF) between two infinite coaxial of circular pipes. In the case when time \(t=0\) the inner pipe is lying at rest where as at \(t>0\) the inner pipe of the annulus starts to oscillate along the common axis of the pipes. The analytical solutions of the problem are obtained via integral transformation technique which is beneficial for time dependent problems. Moreover, the derived solutions are given under the series form of the generalized \(G\) functions satisfying all the imposed auxiliary conditions whereas, the solutions for ordinary Maxwell and Newtonian fluids appear as the limiting case of the present obtained results. We include graphical comparison between Maxwell and Newtonian fluid, and we also explored the effects of different physical parameters on the fluid motion.
In this paper, we introduce the two variable generalized Laguerre polynomials (2VGLP) \({}_GL^{(\alpha,\beta)}_n(x,y)\). Some properties of these polynomials such as generating functions, summation formulae and expansions are also discussed.
The interaction between aphids, ants and ladybirds has been investigated from an ecological point of view since many decades, while there are no attempts to describe it from a mathematical point of view. This paper introduces a new mathematical model to describe the within-season population dynamics in an ecological patch of a system composed by aphids, ants and ladybirds, through a set of four differential equations. The proposed model is based on the Kindlmann and Dixon set of differential equations [1], focused on the prediction of the aphids-ladybirds population densities, that share a prey-predator relationship. The population of ants, in mutualistic relationship with aphids and in interspecific competition with ladybirds, is described according to the Holland and De Angelis mathematical model [2], in which the authors faced the problem of mutualistic interactions in general terms. The set of differential equations proposed here is discretized by means the Nonstandard Finite Difference scheme, successfully applied by Gabbriellini to the mutualistic model [3]. The constructed finite-difference scheme is positivity-preserving and characterized by four nonhyperbolic steady-states, as highlighted by the phase-space and time-series analyses. Particular attention is dedicated to the steady-state most interesting from an ecological point of view, whose asymptotic stability is demonstrated via the Centre Manifold Theory. The model allows to numerically confirm that mutualistic relationship effectively influences the population dynamic, by increasing the peaks of the aphids and ants population densities. Nonetheless, it is showed that the asymptotical populations of aphids and ladybirds collapse for any initial condition, unlike that of ants that, after the peak, settle on a constant asymptotic value.
