Designing Wire Mazes for Replicating Natural Echoes to Study Bat Biosonar Function
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.A validated framework combining efficient physical modeling (multiple scattering model) and deep learning is presented to guide wire‐maze design for bat biosonar studies. This approach rapidly generates large datasets to test acoustic distinguishability among wire arrangements.

Borsuk's antipodal and fixed-point theorems for correspondences without convex values [PDF]
We present an extension of Borsuk's antipodal theorem (existence of a zero) for antipodally approachable correspondences without convex values. This result is a generalization of Borsuk-Ulam Theorem and has a fixed-point equivalent formulation.Borsuk's ...

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.This study presents an integrated proof‐of‐concept robotic platform for targeted delivery applications. A hybrid magnetic actuation system achieves single‐input (z) multistate stabilization (x, y, ϕ, and θ) for precise capsule transport with submillimeter positioning accuracy.

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.Abstract Crop insurance is undoubtedly an extremely valuable element in protecting agricultural businesses, but in many cases standard indemnity‐based products have had very low uptake due to high transaction costs elevating premiums to unaffordable levels.

A Piecewise-Linear Fixed Point Theorem
The American Mathematical MonthlyWe prove that if a continuous piecewise-smooth map on $\mathbb{R}^n$ is comprised of two linear functions, has a bounded orbit, and satisfies a certain non-degeneracy condition, then it has a fixed point. The result has important consequences to the bifurcation theory of nonsmooth dynamical systems, yet the proof requires only elementary linear algebra.

Approximate Fixed Point Theorems [PDF]
Under some weakenings of the condition of the well-known fixed point theorems of Brouwer, Kakutani and Banach the existence of approximate fixed points turns out to be still guaranteed.

Accounting for animal health in efficiency analysis: An application to Swedish dairy farms
American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.Abstract Poor animal health is a central concern in modern livestock production. Despite the necessity to incorporate animal health in efficiency analysis, the theoretical and empirical developments are limited on this subject. This article appropriately characterizes the axiomatic properties of animal health within a production framework.

Fixed Point Theorems for Random Lowersemi-continuous Mappings
Fixed Point Theory and Applications, 2009 We prove a general principle in Random Fixed Point Theory by introducing a condition named ( ) which was inspired by some of Petryshyn's work, and then we apply our result to prove some random fixed points theorems, including generalizations of some ...

Premium subsidy designs and crowding out of insurance demand
American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.Abstract Crop insurance is an important instrument to protect farmers against extreme weather events. Many countries provide subsidies for crop insurance products to make insurance more affordable for farmers. The Federal Crop Insurance Program in the United States and major European crop insurance programs such as in Spain, Italy, and France focus on ...
