In view of a time lag between the time that the prey perceive predator signals and make some changes or behavior responses, we establish a predator–prey system with direct and indirect predation in this paper.

Dynamic Behavior of an Interactive Mosquito Model under Stochastic Interference
For decades, mosquito-borne diseases such as dengue fever and Zika have posed serious threats to human health. Diverse mosquito vector control strategies with different advantages have been proposed by the researchers to solve the problem.

A Unified Longevity–Financial Risk Framework for Evaluating Pension Funding Ratios
Defined-benefit pension funds face simultaneous exposure to longevity risk and financial market volatility, yet most regulatory frameworks assess these risks in isolation using deterministic methods. This paper examines how their joint occurrence affects

Variance and Interest Rate Risk in Unit-Linked Insurance Policies
One of the risks derived from selling long-term policies that any insurance company has arises from interest rates. In this paper, we consider a general class of stochastic volatility models written in forward variance form.

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research
The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

Efficient simulation of stochastic chemical kinetics with the Stochastic Bulirsch-Stoer extrapolation method [PDF]
BackgroundBiochemical systems with relatively low numbers of components must be simulated stochastically in order to capture their inherent noise. Although there has recently been considerable work on discrete stochastic solvers, there is still a need ...

Breast cancer remains a major cause of cancer death in women, frequently developing endocrine therapy resistance. This study demonstrates that upregulated p21‐activated kinase 1 (PAK1) activity drives resistance to tamoxifen and long‐term estrogen deprivation in ER+ breast cancer models.
