A Unified Framework From Boltzmann Transport to Proton Treatment Planning

open access: yesStudies in Applied Mathematics, Volume 157, Issue 2, August 2026.
ABSTRACT We develop a unified stochastic–deterministic framework for proton transport in radiotherapy. The deterministic formulation is based on a Boltzmann–Fokker–Planck (BFP) equation with continuous slowing‐down, angular diffusion, and scattering terms, posed in a kinetic variational setting.

An EZ${\mathcal {E}\mathcal {Z}}$‐structure for the mapping class group

open access: yesProceedings of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 133, Issue 2, August 2026.
Abstract We construct a boundary for the mapping class group Mod(S)${\rm Mod}(S)$ of a surface S$S$ of finite type. The action of Mod(S)${\rm Mod}(S)$ on this boundary is minimal, strongly proximal and topologically free. The boundary is the boundary of an EZ${\mathcal {E}\mathcal {Z}}$‐structure for Mod(S)${\rm Mod}(S)$.

Numerical Investigation of a Diffusive SIR Model: Focus on Positivity Preservation

open access: yesMathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, Volume 49, Issue 11, Page 11775-11793, 30 July 2026.
ABSTRACT In this paper, we consider a system of semilinear partial differential equations (PDEs) representing a spatially extended SIR epidemic model. A brief analytical investigation of the well‐posedness and positivity of the solutions is provided in the appendix, while the main focus is on the numerical treatment of the model.

Weak Solutions for a Class of Nonlocal Singular Problems Over the Nehari Manifold

open access: yesMathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, Volume 49, Issue 11, Page 12360-12378, 30 July 2026.
ABSTRACT In this paper, we consider a nonlocal model of dilatant non‐Newtonian fluid with a Dirichlet boundary condition. By using the Nehari manifold and fibering map methods, we obtain the existence of at least two weak solutions, with sign information.

Surface and Boundary Corrections in Peridynamics Using Optimized Nodal Influence Weights

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, Volume 127, Issue 14, 30 July 2026.
ABSTRACT Peridynamics (PD), similarly to some other nonlocal continuum theories, exhibits truncated interaction horizons near free surfaces, cracks, and voids in bounded domains. This loss of neighbors causes artificial surface effects and inconsistencies in the derivative and energy operators that persist under discretization refinement, limiting PD ...
