This paper investigates the stability properties of a class of dynamic linear systems possessing several linear time-invariant parameterizations (or configurations) which conform a linear time-varying polytopic dynamic ...

This paper investigates the existence of fixed points and best proximity points of p-cyclic self-maps on a set of subsets of a certain uniform space under integral-type contractive conditions. The parallel properties of ...

This paper discusses a generalized time-varying SEIR propagation disease model subject to delays which potentially involves mixed regular and impulsive vaccination rules. The model takes also into account the natural ...

Modern digital systems demand increasing electronic resources, so the multiprocessor platforms are a suitable solution for them. This approach provides better results in terms of area, speed, and power consumption ...

The Mediterranean Sea is a marine biodiversity hot spot. Here we combined an extensive literature analysis with expert opinions to update publicly available estimates of major taxa in this marine ecosystem and to revise ...

Since the pioneering work by Julius Adler in the 1960's, bacterial chemotaxis has been predominantly studied as metabolism-independent. All available simulation models of bacterial chemotaxis endorse this assumption. Recent ...

This paper is devoted to the investigation of the existence of fixed points in a normed linear space X endowed with a norm ‖⋅‖ for self-maps f from T×X to X which are constructed from a given class of so-called primary ...

This paper is concerned with the investigation of the controllability and observability of Caputo fractional differential linear systems of any real order α. Expressions for the expansions of the evolution operators in ...

Background: The bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BNST) is involved in behaviors related to natural reward, drug addiction and stress. In spite of the emerging role of the endogenous cannabinoid (eCB) system in these ...

Some mutual relations between p-cyclic contractive self-mappings, p-cyclic Kannan self-mappings, and Meir-Keeler p-cyclic contractions are stated. On the other hand, related results about the existence of the best proximity ...
