Drivers of Hirola Antelope Diet Selection in Natural and Managed Habitat in Eastern Kenya

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
Hirola (Beatragus hunteri) populations in eastern Kenya consumed 17 forage species, favoring the grass Chloris virgata and the forbs Commelina benghalensis and C. diffusa. Nutrient analyses showed that natural habitats offered higher phosphorus, magnesium, and digestibility, whereas managed sites provided more sodium, potassium, and crude protein, with

Radial Basis Function Neural Network With Resilient Backpropagation for Solving Fractional‐Order Chaotic Virotherapy Dynamics

open access: yesComputational and Mathematical Methods, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The purpose of this work is to solve the fractional‐order model of chaotic virotherapy dynamics by executing a neural network scheme. The chaotic virotherapy dynamics is divided into four categories: uninfected tumor cells, infected tumor cells, immune cells, and virus‐free cells.

Correction to Black-Scholes formula due to fractional stochastic volatility

open access: yes, 2017
Empirical studies show that the volatility may exhibit correlations that decay as a fractional power of the time offset. The paper presents a rigorous analysis for the case when the stationary stochastic volatility model is constructed in terms of a ...

Memory‐Dependent Chaotic Dynamics and Stabilization of a Nonlinear Fractional‐Order Financial System With Optimal Control

open access: yesJournal of Applied Mathematics, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
This study presents an innovative nonlinear fractional‐order financial model that employs Caputo and Caputo–Fabrizio fractional derivatives to represent the dynamic interactions among interest rates, investment demand, price indices, and income/output. The model is formulated as a system of coupled nonlinear differential equations to encapsulate memory‐

An Efficient Numerical Model for the Black–Scholes Equations

open access: yesJournal of Applied Mathematics, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
In this paper, a novel numerical model for the Black–Scholes equations is developed. To address some potential issues that may arise when solving this equation using the conventional model, the original Black–Scholes equation is reformulated as a convection–diffusion equation. The Crank–Nicolson scheme is utilized to discretize the diffusion and source

Fundamental Black–Scholes Model, Fractional Binary Approximation, No‐Arbitrage, and Completeness

open access: yesJournal of Mathematics, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Sottinen (2001) constructed a binary model approximating the Black–Scholes (B‐S) model driven by fractional Brownian motion using its Donsker’s type approximation. He further proved that his so‐called fractional binary model has arbitrage opportunities.

Tournament incentives and reserve management

open access: yesRisk Management and Insurance Review, Volume 28, Issue 4, Page 499-533, Winter 2025.
Abstract This paper examines the impact of internal tournament incentives on reserve management within the property‐liability insurance industry. We find a positive relationship between internal tournament incentives and reserve errors, suggesting that a larger tournament prize is associated with more conservative loss‐reserve management.

RANDOM WALKS AND FRACTAL STRUCTURES IN AGRICULTURAL COMMODITY FUTURES PRICES [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper investigates whether the assumption of Brownian motion often used to describe commodity price movements is satisfied. Using historical data from 17 commodity futures contracts specific tests of fractional and ordinary Brownian motion are ...
