An inequality for convex functionals and its application to a maxwellian gas
We study the trend towards equilibrium of the solution of the spatially homogeneous Boltzmann equation for a gas of Maxwellian molecules. The cases of axially symmetric and plane initial densities are investigated.

Impulsive Thruster Control for Spacecraft Docking: A Lyapunov Approach
ABSTRACT In this work, we propose a novel discontinuous impulsive controller for nonlinear systems that admit continuous‐time stabilizing controllers. Specifically, we develop a technique for generating discrete control pulses of short duration based on the Lyapunov candidate function associated with a continuous‐time controller. Our method uses a real‐

Deadbeat Robust Model Predictive Control for Linear Parameter‐Varying Systems
ABSTRACT The concept of Deadbeat Robust Model Predictive Control (DRMPC) has recently been established for linear systems, providing full system theoretic guarantees, while reducing the computational and conceptual complexity. This article extends DRMPC to systems with multiplicative uncertainty (“robust linear”) and systems that depend on a (slowly ...

The role of identification in data‐driven policy iteration: A system theoretic study
Abstract The goal of this article is to study fundamental mechanisms behind so‐called indirect and direct data‐driven control for unknown systems. Specifically, we consider policy iteration applied to the linear quadratic regulator problem. Two iterative procedures, where data collected from the system are repeatedly used to compute new estimates of ...

ABSTRACT This study examines the interplay between climate change, violent conflict and forced migration in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA), focusing on asylum flows to the European Union (EU). By integrating high‐resolution climate, conflict and socioeconomic data spanning 2000 to 2023, we develop a comprehensive empirical framework to ...

This article is mainly concerned to link the Hermite-Hadamard and the Jensen-Mercer inequalities by using majorization theory and fractional calculus. We derive the Hermite-Hadamard-Jensen-Mercer-type inequalities in conticrete form, which serve as both ...

WEIGHTED INEQUALITIES FOR MONOTONE SEQUENCES
In this work, conditions ensuring the validity of weighted inequalities for monotone sequences are obtained. In addition, lower and upper estimates for the best constant of the inequality are presented.

ABSTRACT Achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) requires transparent and accountable local governments, yet little is known about the structural drivers of municipal transparency. This study introduces a machine learning approach to predict municipal transparency using the Bidimensional Transparency Index (BTI), which measures both the ...

Global Energy Stability of a Discrete Fractional Generalized Gray–Scott Reaction-Diffusion System
This paper establishes a rigorous framework for the global energy-stability (ES) analysis of a discrete generalized Gray–Scott (GS) reaction-diffusion system (RDs) driven by a Caputo-like fractional difference (CLFD) operator.
