A note on the optimal pricing strategy in the discrete-time Geo/Geo/1 queuing system with sojourn time-dependent reward

Operations Research Perspectives, 2017
This work studies the optimal pricing strategy in a discrete-time Geo/Geo/1 queuing system under the sojourn time-dependent reward. We consider two types of pricing schemes.

Improving Affordability and Accessibility for Socially‐Beneficial Services via Government Incentives

Naval Research Logistics (NRL), Volume 73, Issue 7, Page 1116-1140, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Many socially‐beneficial services, like dental care, suffer from a dual challenge: Low affordability for citizens and long waiting times due to insufficient provider capacity. We model a government's problem of designing subsidy policies to address this issue.

Sex‐Specific Atlantic Salmon Upstream Passage and Fallback at a Natural Cascade After Dam Removal

Fisheries Management and Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 5, Page 963-976, October 2026.
ABSTRACT In the Boquet River (NY, USA) a low‐head dam set above a ~200‐m bedrock cascade was removed in 2015. We used radio‐telemetry to assess landlocked Atlantic salmon passage at the remaining cascade (2020, 2022). Across years, 52% of males (13/25) attempted cascade passage whereas females made no discernable attempts (0/11).

A factorial multi‐layer analysis reveals non‐additive sulfur–iron interactions shaping metabolic and transcriptional responses in durum wheat

New Phytologist, Volume 252, Issue 1, Page 192-208, October 2026.
Working model of S‐dependent Fe stress integration in durum wheat. S availability acts as the main factor defining the metabolic and transcriptional state of the plant, whereas Fe mainly affects the intensity of these responses. This is particularly evident for OAS, methionine, citrate and asparagine, which accumulated most strongly under combined S ...

Majority Dynamics on Finite Trees

Random Structures &Algorithms, Volume 69, Issue 2, September 2026.
ABSTRACT For an arbitrary finite tree T$$ T $$, we find the exact value of the worst‐case stabilization time of majority dynamics on T$$ T $$. We also prove that for a perfect rooted cubic tree T$$ T $$ with diameter D$$ D $$ and uniformly random initial opinions, the dynamics stabilizes in time τ∈(D/4,D/3)$$ \tau \in \left(D/4,D/3\right) $$ with high ...
