On Darboux helices in Euclidean 4‐space

The notion of Darboux helix in Euclidean 3‐space was introduced and studied by Yayl? et al. 2012. They show that the class of Darboux helices coincide with the class of slant helices. In a special case, if the curvature functions satisfy the equality κ² + τ² = constant, then these curves are curve of the constant precession. In this paper, we study Darboux helices in Euclidean 4‐space, and we give a characterization for a curve to be a Darboux helix. We also prove that Darboux helices coincide with the general helices. In a special case, if the first and third curvatures of the curve are equal, then Darboux helix, general helix, and V₄‐slant helix are the same concepts.     

Fractional powers of the noncommutative Fourier's law by the S‐spectrum approach

Let e_?, for ? = 1,2,3, be orthogonal unit vectors in and let be a bounded open set with smooth boundary ?Ω. Denoting by a point in Ω, the heat equation, for nonhomogeneous materials, is obtained replacing the Fourier law, given by the following: into the conservation of energy law, here a, b, are given functions. With the S‐spectrum approach to fractional diffusion processes we determine, in a suitable way, the fractional powers of T. Then, roughly speaking, we replace the fractional powers of T into the conservation of energy law to obtain the fractional evolution equation. This method is important for nonhomogeneous materials where the Fourier law is not simply the negative gradient. In this paper, we determine under which conditions on the coefficients a, b, the fractional powers of T exist in the sense of the S‐spectrum approach. More in general, this theory allows to compute the fractional powers of vector operators that arise in different fields of science and technology. This paper is devoted to researchers working in fractional diffusion and fractional evolution problems, partial differential equations, and noncommutative operator theory.     

How vector feeding preference through an infectious host relates to the seasonal transmission rates in a mathematical vector‐host model

Vector‐borne diseases, such as leishmaniasis, dengue, malaria, and yellow fever, transmitted by microparasites show periodic fluctuations in their prevalence. The novelty of this research is to assess the relationship between the vector feeding preference for an infectious host and the annual seasonal transmission through a vector‐host mathematical model. For the first time, numerical simulations illustrate that by increasing the vector feeding preference value in the transmission dynamics, periodic fluctuations accentuate and the endemic equilibrium average increases in vector and host populations. Moreover, increasing the vector feeding preference value, the amplitude strengthens for the infectious host and vector populations. This periodic behavior shows a similar pattern with the Peruvian incidence data from 2000 to 2016 for Andean cutaneous leishmaniasis provided by the Ministry of Health of Peru (MINSA). In addition, using the Floquet theory, the time average method and the linear operator method provides for the first time that the basic reproduction number for a nonautonomous system depends explicitly on the vector feeding preference for the infectious host. The nonautonomous model system shows that is a threshold parameter for the local stability of the disease‐free periodic solution. Therefore, the vector feeding preference is an important factor that should be considered and attended to for future research. Public and veterinary health in Peru and other countries should consider the vector feeding preference for specific host to vector control.

基于随机活动工期的多模式现金流均衡项目调度优化

承包商在项目执行过程中的现金流均衡是保证项目成功的关键因素。本文研究基于随机活动工期的多模式现金流均衡项目调度问题,旨是在项目工期及鲁棒性阈值约束下合理安排活动执行模式与开始时间,实现承包商现金流均衡。本文通过构建整数规划优化模型对研究问题进行刻画,随后设计模拟退火算法进行求解,最后进行案例分析。结果表明:鲁棒性阈值虽然可以保证基准进度的稳定性,但是提高鲁棒性阈值水平反而不利于承包商的现金流均衡,该值过高时甚至得不到可行解。本文研究可为随机活动工期背景下承包商的现金流控制提供定量化决策支持。
