Is Inflation Regressive or Progressive? Long Run & Short Run Evidence from Pakistan
International Journal of Management Studies, 2010 The present paper investigates an answer to a key question “is inflation regressive or progressive?” by utilizing time series data from 1971 up to 2005 with reference to Pakistan.

On a Conjecture of Alzer, Berg, and Koumandos
Mathematics, 2020 In this paper, we find a solution of an open problem posed by Alzer, Berg, and Koumandos: determine ( α , m ) ∈ R + × N such that the function x α | ψ ( m ) ( x ) | is completely monotonic on ( 0 , ∞ ) , where ψ (

Income Inequality Measures - A Quantile Approach
StatisticaMeasures of income inequality are used for modelling and analysis of income data. In this paper, we present various income inequality measures in the quantile set up. We also introduce quantile version of well known dullness property.

Some inequalities for (p,q) $(p,q)$-mixed volume
Journal of Inequalities and Applications, 2018 Lutwak, Yang, and Zhang introduced the concept of (p,q) $(p,q)$-mixed volume whose special cases contain the Lp $L_{p}$-mixed volume and the Lp $L_{p}$-dual mixed volume.

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.A constraint‐based analytical framework maps the coupled effects of material properties, structural parameters, and operating conditions in tubular dielectric elastomer pumps for extracorporeal circulatory applications. The approach defines performance boundaries through mechanical, electrical, and hydraulic constraints and identifies feasible design ...

International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract We propose a hierarchical energy management scheme for aggregating Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) for grid flexibility services. To prevent a direct participation of numerous prosumers in the wholesale electricity market, aggregators, as self‐interest agents in our scheme, incentivize prosumers to provide flexibility. We firstly model the

Non-Monotone Variational Inequalities
2024 60th Annual Allerton Conference on Communication, Control, and ComputingIn this paper, we focus on deriving some sufficient conditions for the existence of solutions to non-monotone Variational Inequalities (VIs) based on inverse mapping theory. We have obtained several widely applicable sufficient conditions for this problem and have introduced a sufficient condition for the existence of a Minty solution.

INEQUALITIES AND MONOTONICITY FOR THE RATIO OF GAMMA FUNCTIONS
Taiwanese Journal of Mathematics, 2003 Let \(\Gamma\) be the Euler gamma function. The authors prove that \[ f_y(x)= [\Gamma(x+ y+ 1)/\Gamma(y+ 1)]^{1/x}/(x+ y+ 1) \] is a decreasing function of \(x\geq 1\), for any fixed \(y\geq 0\).

Nonreciprocal Swarmalators With Reconfigurable and Controllable Formations for Robot Collectives
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.Nonreciprocal swarmalator interactions are enabled through control barrier functions to transform self‐organizing robot collectives into reconfigurable, constraint‐aware systems. Complex two‐ and three‐dimensional shapes, continuous morphing, obstacle‐aware navigation, collective splitting, and object transport emerge from modulating agent‐level ...
