Some qualitative properties of nonlinear fractional integro-differential equations of variable order

The existence-uniqueness criteria of nonlinear fractional integro-differential equations of variable order with multiterm boundary value conditions are considered in this work. By utilizing the concepts of generalized intervals combined with the piecewise constant functions, we transform our problem into usual Caputo’s fractional differential equations of constant order. We develop the necessary criteria for assuring the solution's existence and uniqueness by applying Schauder and Banach fixed point theorem. We also examine the stability of the derived solution in the Ulam-Hyers-Rassias (UHR) sense and provide an example to demonstrate the credibility of the results.

Modified Traces and the Nakayama Functor

We organize the modified trace theory with the use of the Nakayama functor of finite abelian categories. For a linear right exact functor Σ on a finite abelian category ${\mathscr{M}}$ M , we introduce the notion of a Σ-twisted trace on the class $\text {Proj}({\mathscr{M}})$ Proj ( M ) of projective objects of ${\mathscr{M}}$ M . In our framework, there is a one-to-one correspondence between the set of Σ-twisted traces on $\text {Proj}({\mathscr{M}})$ Proj ( M ) and the set of natural transformations from Σ to the Nakayama functor of ${\mathscr{M}}$ M . Non-degeneracy and compatibility with the module structure (when ${\mathscr{M}}$ M is a module category over a finite tensor category) of a Σ-twisted trace can be written down in terms of the corresponding natural transformation. As an application of this principal, we give existence and uniqueness criteria for modified traces. In particular, a unimodular pivotal finite tensor category admits a non-zero two-sided modified trace if and only if it is spherical. Also, a ribbon finite tensor category admits such a trace if and only if it is unimodular.

A Brief Overview of Results about Uniqueness of the Quantization in Cosmology

The purpose of this review is to provide a brief overview of recent conceptual developments regarding possible criteria to guarantee the uniqueness of the quantization in a variety of situations that are found in cosmological systems. These criteria impose certain conditions on the representation of a group of physically relevant linear transformations. Generally, this group contains any existing symmetry of the spatial sections. These symmetries may or may not be sufficient for the purpose of uniqueness and may have to be complemented with other remaining symmetries that affect the time direction or with dynamical transformations that are, in fact, not symmetries. We discuss the extent to which a unitary implementation of the resulting group suffices to fix the quantization—a demand that can be seen as a weaker version of the requirement of invariance. In particular, a strict invariance under certain transformations may eliminate some physically interesting possibilities in the passage to the quantum theory. This is the first review in which this unified perspective is adopted to discuss otherwise different uniqueness criteria proposed either in homogeneous loop quantum cosmology or in the Fock quantization of inhomogeneous cosmologies.

Stability of a fractional order harvested prey–predator model in the existence of infection in prey

The growing relationship between prey and their predator is one of the important aspects in the field of ecology and mathematical biology. On the other hand, the utility of fractional calculus in different types of mathematical modelling have been applied extensively. In this paper, a fractional order prey–predator model is developed with the consideration of Holling type-I and Holling type-II functional response of the predator. As infection spreads through prey, the prey population is divided into two parts. In addition, we exploit the effect of harvesting to control the excessive spread of the infection. The existence and uniqueness criteria, the boundedness of the solution of the proposed model are investigated. A number of five possible equilibrium points of the proposed model are determined along with the feasibility conditions for each equilibrium points. The local stability at these equilibrium points and global stability at interior equilibrium point are investigated. Numerical simulation is presented with the help of modified Predictor-corrector method in MATLAB software to understand the dynamics of the proposed model.

Some remarks on bv(s)-metric spaces and fixed point results with an application

We compare the newly defined bv(s)-metric spaces with several other abstract spaces like metric spaces, b-metric spaces and show that some well-known results, which hold in the latter class of spaces, may not hold in bv(s)-metric spaces. Besides, we introduce the notions of sequential compactness and bounded compactness in the framework of bv(s)-metric spaces. Using these notions, we prove some fixed point results involving Nemytzki–Edelstein type mappings in this setting, from which several comparable fixed point results can be deduced. In addition to these, we find some existence and uniqueness criteria for the solution to a certain type of mixed Fredholm–Volterra integral equations.

Existence and uniqueness criteria for the higher-order Hilfer fractional boundary value problems at resonance

This investigation is devoted to the study of a certain class of coupled systems of higher-order Hilfer fractional boundary value problems at resonance. Combining the coincidence degree theory with the Lipschitz-type continuity conditions on nonlinearities, we present some existence and uniqueness criteria. Finally, to practically implement the obtained theoretical criteria, we give an illustrative application.

Fixed Point Theorem Based Solvability of 2-Dimensional Dissipative Cubic Nonlinear Klein-Gordon Equation

The purpose of this article is to establish the solvability of the 2-Dimensional dissipative cubic nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation (2DDCNLKGE) through periodic boundary value conditions (PBVCs). The analysis of this study is founded on the Galerkin’s method (GLK) and the Leray-Schauder’s fixed point theorem (LS). First, the GLK method is used to construct some uniform priori estimates of approximate solution to the corresponding equation of 2DDCNLKGE. Finally, the LS fixed point theorem is applied to obtain the efficient and straightforward existence and uniqueness criteria of time periodic solution to the 2DDCNLKGE.
