Maintaining the Regular Ultra Passum Law in data envelopment analysis [PDF]

open access: yes
The variable returns to scale data envelopment analysis (DEA) model is developed with a maintained hypothesis of convexity in input-output space. This hypothesis is not consistent with standard microeconomic production theory that posits an S-shape for ...

Data‐Driven Modeling of Composition–Processing–Microstructure Relations for Recycled Aluminum Cast Alloys

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Interpretable machine learning reveals how composition and processing govern the formation and microstructural burden of Fe‐rich intermetallic compounds in recycled Al–Si–Fe–Mn alloys. By separating morphology selection from morphology‐conditioned burden partitioning, this framework shows that identical Fe contents can yield different intermetallic ...

Starlikeness, Convexity, Close-to-Convexity, and Quasi-Convexity for Functions with Fixed Initial Coefficients [PDF]

open access: yes
In this paper, we employ the theory of differential subordination to establish a theorem that delineates certain sufficient conditions for starlikeness, convexity, close-to-convexity, and quasi-convexity in relation to functions with fixed initial ...

Physics‐Constrained Constitutive Learning of Rate‐Limiting Timescales for Efficient Hydrogen‐Based Direct Reduction for Green Steel Making

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A conversion‐resolved constitutive framework is developed for the hydrogen‐based direct reduction of iron oxide pellets. Effective reaction and transport timescales are inferred directly from measured trajectories and mapped against operating conditions, pellet architecture, and composition. The analysis reveals how late‐stage transport control emerges

The Shapley-Folkman Theorem and the Range of a Bounded Measure: An Elementary and Unified Treatment [PDF]

open access: yes
We present proofs, based on the Shapley-Folkman theorem, of the convexity of the range of a strongly continuous, finitely additive measure, as well as that of an atomless, countably additive measure.

q-Derivative on p-valent meromorphic functions associated with connected sets [PDF]

open access: yesSurveys in Mathematics and its Applications, 2019
In this article, two subfamilies of p-valent meromorphic functions by means of q-derivative are defined. With that, we study coefficient inequality, distortion bounds and convex family of these subclasses. Also connected sets structure is investigated.

Asymmetric Electrostrain/Electrobending in Piezoelectric Ceramics: Role of Defect Dipoles or Oxygen Vacancies

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Defect‐configurational origins of the asymmetric apparent electrostrain are revealed in different piezoelectric ceramics via atomic‐scale visualization of defect configurations. Migration of oxygen vacancies leads to the electrobending effect in N2‐sintered BaTiO3, while defect dipoles in Ba0.99TiO2.99 generate true asymmetric electrostrain without ...

Flexoelectricity in Photoconversion: Fundamentals, Materials, and Outlooks

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Mechanical bending of a flexible cantilever induces a strain gradient in the photoactive material. The resulting flexoelectric field couples with photovoltaic and photoconductive effects, modulating charge generation, separation, and collection. A comparative analysis of oxide perovskites, halide perovskites, and two‐dimensional materials is presented,

A Completely Monotonic Function Involving Divided Differences of Psi and Polygamma Functions and an Application [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
A function involving the divided differences of the psi function and the polygamma functions is proved to be completely monotonic. As an application of this result, the monotonicity and convexity of a function originated from establishing the best ...

Signed tropical halfspaces and convexity [PDF]

open access: yes
We extend the fundamentals for tropical convexity beyond the tropically positive orthant expanding the theory developed by Loho and Végh (ITCS 2020). We study two notions of convexity for signed tropical numbers called 'TO-convexity' (formerly 'signed ...
