Extensions and improvements of Sherman’s and related inequalities for n-convex functions

open access: yesOpen Mathematics, 2017
This paper gives extensions and improvements of Sherman’s inequality for n-convex functions obtained by using new identities which involve Green’s functions and Fink’s identity.

Capacity and limitations of US wild meat donation programmes

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Historically, sharing of wild harvests to facilitate food security followed concepts of kin selection and reciprocal altruism. However, cultural shifts have reduced access to foods for some populations in modern times. Cultural altruism through sustainably harvested wild meat donation programmes (WDPs) can reduce food and nutritional ...

Adaptive Sliding Mode Control Design for Interval Type‐2 T–S Fuzzy Systems With Time Delay: An Event‐Triggered Approach

open access: yesInternational Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this work, a new event‐triggered adaptive first‐order sliding mode control method is proposed for nonlinear systems with constant time delays, modeled by interval type‐2 Takagi–Sugeno (T–S) fuzzy systems. To handle matched disturbances with unknown upper bounds, a non‐overestimating adaptation strategy for the control coefficient is ...

Some Dynamic Inequalities of Hilbert’s Type

open access: yesJournal of Function Spaces, 2020
This paper is concerned with deriving some new dynamic Hilbert-type inequalities on time scales. The basic idea in proving the results is using some algebraic inequalities, Hölder’s inequality and Jensen’s inequality, on time scales. As a special case of

Jensen's inequality for conditional expectations

open access: yes, 2005
We study conditional expectations generated by an abelian $ C^* $-subalgebra in the centralizer of a positive functional. We formulate and prove Jensen's inequality for functions of several variables with respect to this type of conditional expectations,

Measured‐State Conditioned Recursive Feasibility for Stochastic Model Predictive Control

open access: yesInternational Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this paper, we address the problem of designing stochastic model predictive control (SMPC) schemes for linear systems affected by unbounded disturbances. The contribution of the paper is rooted in a measured‐state initialization strategy. First, due to the nonzero probability of violating chance‐constraints in the case of unbounded noise ...

Ontologies for Sustainability: Theoretical Challenges

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The lack of sustainable practices in key sectors of human societies is a global concern, posing threats for the whole planet. This paper provides the first review of ontologies for sustainability efforts, outlining their roles in assessing and advancing such efforts. Section 2 outlines three major challenges associated with sustainability: (1)

Refined Wirtinger-type integral inequality

open access: yesJournal of Inequalities and Applications, 2018
Based on the extreme value conditions of a multiple variables function, a new class of Wirtinger-type double integral inequality is established in this paper.

Financial Inclusion for Smallholders: Integrating a Resource Nexus Approach Into Agricultural Finance Systems

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Smallholder farmers remain structurally excluded from the current agricultural finance system. Existing research in this area examines financial inclusion through fragmented environmental, social, and economic lenses, limiting system‐level understanding.

Finite-time passivity for neutral-type neural networks with time-varying delays – via auxiliary function-based integral inequalities

open access: yesNonlinear Analysis, 2020
In this paper, we investigated the problem of the finite-time boundedness and finitetime passivity for neural networks with time-varying delays. A triple, quadrable and five integral terms with the delay information are introduced in the new Lyapunov ...
