We present a statistical distribution of a nanorobot motion inside the blood. This distribution is like the distribution of A and B particles in continuous time random walk scheme inside the fluid reactive anomalous transport with stochastic waiting time depending on the Gaussian distribution and a Gaussian jump length which is detailed in Zhang and Li [J. Stat. Phys., Published Online with https://doi.org/10.1007/s10955-018-2185-8 , 2018]. Rather than estimating the length parameter of the jumping distance of the nanorobot, we normalize the Probability Density Function (PDF) and present some reliability properties for this distribution. In addition, we discuss the truncated version of this distribution and its statistical properties, and estimate its length parameter. We use the estimated distance to study the conditions that give a finite expected value of the first meeting time between this nanorobot in the case of nonlinear flow with independent [Formula: see text]-dimensional Gaussian jumps and an independent [Formula: see text]-dimensional CD4 T Brownian cell in the blood ([Formula: see text]-space) to prevent the HIV virus from proliferating within this cell.

The process is considered, in which an unreliable rumor spreads in society, which is opposed by the broadcasting of the mass media. In this case, the unreliability of hearing is understood so that the information of the media contains a refutation and thereby inoculates individuals, that is, makes them immune to hearing. At the same time, individuals who have managed to accept the rumor cease to trust the media and thereby become unavailable for persuasion. For this process, a mathematical model is proposed in two versions. The variant with continuous time reveals some of the mathematical properties of the model. The discrete time option is more convenient for analyzing real processes since it allows one to estimate the parameters of the model. To assess these parameters, data on the ratings of the main socio-political programs of Russian TV channels were used. Several scenario calculations of the model with these parameters are presented. The main conclusion is that if the information disseminated by the media is not viral, that is, it is not retold by viewers to their neighbors in society, then the media are unable to resist rumors.

Formulae due to Dahlberg for computing the numbers of consanguineous matings to be expected under random mating fail in the case of overlapping generations. The concept of random mating can be extended to cover overlapping generations by making the chance of muting between a male and female depend on the interval between their dates of birth. This concept of random mating is illustrated by a numerical example based on a simple hypothetical organism. The implications of the suggested concept of random mating can be explored for species with complicated demographic characteristics, and man in particular, by means of a mathematical model in continuous time. Calculations of the frequencies of various types of consanguineous marriage to be expected under random mating are presented and compared with statistics of consanguineous marriages occurring in various countries. Discrepancies and similarities between observed and theoretical values are discussed.
