Adaptive mixing formation control of multiquadrotor unmanned aerial vehicle systems
Abstract This paper presents a distributed adaptive mixing control (AMC) design for formation maintenance of systems of multiquadrotor UAVs (q‐UAVs) during commanded path‐tracking maneuvers. The proposed formation control scheme has a two‐level structure. The high level defines the desired trajectories for rigid and persistent formation acquisition and

Risk‐aware safe reinforcement learning for control of stochastic linear systems
Abstract This paper presents a risk‐aware safe reinforcement learning (RL) control design for stochastic discrete‐time linear systems. Rather than using a safety certifier to myopically intervene with the RL controller, a risk‐informed safe controller is also learned besides the RL controller, and the RL and safe controllers are combined together ...

Prosocial behaviour in primary and secondary school students. Effects of the CYBUPRE intervention
Abstract Prosocial behaviour is regarded as a critical factor in reducing aggressive behaviours among peers, both in physical settings and virtual spaces. This variable facilitates the enhancement of social relationships, promoting empathy, deep listening, physical and verbal service, and even solidarity, among other benefits.

Homoclinic solutions for a class of second order non-autonomous systems
This article concerns the existence of homoclinic solutions for the second order non-autonomous system $$ ddot q+A dot q-L(t)q+W_{q}(t,q)=0, $$ where $A$ is a skew-symmetric constant matrix, $L(t)$ is a symmetric positive definite matrix depending ...

Multiple critical points in closed sets via minimax theorems
In this paper, we apply our minimax theory ([4], [5], [6]) with the one developed by A. Moameni in [2] to formalize a general scheme giving the multiplicity of critical points. Here is a sample of application of the scheme to a critical elliptic problem: Let $Ω\subset {\bf R}^n$ ($n\geq 3$) be a smooth bounded domain and let $10$, there exists $λ^*> ...

Dynamic Spillovers Between FinTech, Blockchain, and Green Finance: A Quantile Connectedness Approach
ABSTRACT This paper explores how financial innovation and environmental sustainability intersect by analyzing spillovers between FinTech, blockchain energy use, and green finance. Using a Quantile Vector Autoregression (QVAR) framework, we examine weekly data from 2018 to 2024 across 11 digital, environmental, and macro‐financial indices.

All energy matters Let us broaden the discussion on solutions to climate change. Greenhouse gases have upset the delicate equilibrium of the Earth's energy balance. Consequently, all sources of heat affect the temperature of the Earth. Although the amount of additional heat generated by humans is a fraction of that produced by the sun, it is generated ...

Existence of multiple breathers for discrete nonlinear Schrodinger equations
In this article we study discrete nonlinear Schrodinger equations without periodicity assumptions. We show the existence of multiple solutions of the form $u_n e^{-i\omega t}$ (called breathers) by using Clark's Theorem in critical point theory.

Optimal model‐based design of experiments for parameter precision: Supercritical extraction case
Abstract This study investigates the process of chamomile oil extraction from flowers. A parameter‐distributed model consisting of a set of partial differential equations is used to describe the governing mass transfer phenomena in a cylindrical packed bed with solid chamomile particles under supercritical conditions using carbon dioxide as a solvent ...
