In this paper, we first prove the existence and uniqueness of the solution to a variable-order Caputo–Fabrizio fractional stochastic differential equation driven by a multiplicative white noise, which describes random phenomena with non-local effects and non-singular kernels. The Euler–Maruyama scheme is extended to develop the Euler–Maruyama method, and the strong convergence of the proposed method is demonstrated. The main difference between our work and the existing literature is the fact that our assumptions on the nonlinear external forces are those of one-sided Lipschitz conditions on both the drift and the nonlinear intensity of the noise as well as the proofs of the higher integrability of the solution and the approximating sequence. Finally, to validate the numerical approach, current results from the numerical implementation are presented to test the efficiency of the scheme used in order to substantiate the theoretical analysis.

We establish a relationship between stochastic differential games (SDGs) and a unified forward–backward coupled stochastic partial differential equation (SPDE) with discontinuous Lévy Jumps. The SDGs have q players and are driven by a general-dimensional vector Lévy process. By establishing a vector-form Ito-Ventzell formula and a 4-tuple vector-field solution to the unified SPDE, we obtain a Pareto optimal Nash equilibrium policy process or a saddle point policy process to the SDG in a non-zero-sum or zero-sum sense. The unified SPDE is in both a general-dimensional vector form and forward–backward coupling manner. The partial differential operators in its drift, diffusion, and jump coefficients are in time-variable and position parameters over a domain. Since the unified SPDE is of general nonlinearity and a general high order, we extend our recent study from the existing Brownian motion (BM)-driven backward case to a general Lévy-driven forward–backward coupled case. In doing so, we construct a new topological space to support the proof of the existence and uniqueness of an adapted solution of the unified SPDE, which is in a 4-tuple strong sense. The construction of the topological space is through constructing a set of topological spaces associated with a set of exponents {γ1,γ2,…} under a set of general localized conditions, which is significantly different from the construction of the single exponent case. Furthermore, due to the coupling from the forward SPDE and the involvement of the discontinuous Lévy jumps, our study is also significantly different from the BM-driven backward case. The coupling between forward and backward SPDEs essentially corresponds to the interaction between noise encoding and noise decoding in the current hot diffusion transformer model for generative AI.

This paper investigates the propagation of in-plane surface waves in a coated thermoelastic half-space. First, it investigates a special case where the surface layer is described by the Maxwell–Cattaneo thermoelastic approach, while the half-space is filled by a thermoelastic material described by the classical Fourier law for the heat flux. The contact between the layer and the half-space is assumed to be welded, i.e., the displacements and the temperature, as well as the stresses and the heat flux are continuous through the interface of the layer and the half-space. The boundary and continuity conditions of the problem are formulated and then the exact dispersion relation of the surface waves is established. An illustrative numerical simulation is presented for the case of an aluminum thermoelastic layer coating a thermoelastic copper half-space, highlighting important aspects regarding the propagation of Rayleigh waves in such structures. The exact effective boundary conditions at the interface are also established replacing the entire effect of the layer on the half-space. The general case of the problem is also investigated when both the surface layer and the half-space are described by the Maxwell–Cattaneo thermoelasticity theory. This study helps to further understand the propagation characteristics of elastic waves in layered structures with thermal effects described by the Maxwell–Cattaneo approach.

Sequential recommendations aim to predict users’ next interactions by modeling their interaction sequences. Most existing work concentrates on user preferences within these sequences, overlooking the complex item relationships across sequences. Additionally, these studies often fail to address the diversity of user interests, thus not capturing their varied latent preferences effectively. To tackle these problems, this paper develops a novel recommendation algorithm based on hypergraphs and contrastive learning named HyperCLR. It dynamically incorporates the time and location embeddings of items to model high-order relationships in user preferences. Moreover, we developed a graph construction approach named IFDG, which utilizes global item visit frequencies and spatial distances to discern item relevancy. By sampling subgraphs from IFDG, HyperCLR can align the representations of identical interaction sequences closely while distinguishing them from the broader global context on IFDG. This approach enhances the accuracy of sequential recommendations. Furthermore, a gating mechanism is designed to tailor the global context information to individual user preferences. Extensive experiments on Taobao, Books and Games datasets have shown that HyperCLR consistently surpasses baselines, demonstrating the effectiveness of the method. In particular, in comparison to the best baseline methods, HyperCLR demonstrated a 29.1% improvement in performance on the Taobao dataset.

This paper is set to analytically describe properties of the hyperbolic distribution. This law, along with the variance-gamma distribution, is one of the most popular normal mean–variance mixtures from the point of view of various applications. We have found closed form expressions for the cumulative distribution and partial-moment-generating functions of the hyperbolic distribution. The obtained formulas use the values of the Humbert confluent hypergeometric and Whittaker special functions. The results are applied to the problem of European option pricing in the related Lévy model of financial market. The research demonstrates that the discussed normal mean–variance mixture is analytically tractable.

Let C⊂Np be an integer polyhedral cone. An affine semigroup S⊂C is a C-semigroup if |C∖S|<+∞. This structure has always been studied using a monomial order. The main issue is that the choice of these orders is arbitrary. In the present work, we choose the order given by the semigroup itself, which is a more natural order. This allows us to generalise some of the definitions and results known from numerical semigroup theory to C-semigroups.

This paper explores fixed points for both contractive and non-contractive mappings in traditional b-metric spaces, preordered b-metric spaces, and random b-metric spaces. Our findings provide insights into the behavior of mappings under various constraints and extend our approach to include coincidence and common fixed-point theorems in these spaces. We present new examples and graphical representations for the first time, offering novel results and enhancing several related findings in the literature, while broadening the scope of earlier works of Ran and Reurings, Nieto and Rodríguez-López, Górnicki, and others.

Over the past few years, there has been substantial interest and research activity surrounding the application of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) for post-filtering in video coding. Most current research efforts have focused on using CNNs with various kernel sizes for post-filtering, primarily concentrating on High-Efficiency Video Coding/H.265 (HEVC) and Versatile Video Coding/H.266 (VVC). This narrow focus has limited the exploration and application of these techniques to other video coding standards such as AV1, developed by the Alliance for Open Media, which offers excellent compression efficiency, reducing bandwidth usage and improving video quality, making it highly attractive for modern streaming and media applications. This paper introduces a novel approach that extends beyond traditional CNN methods by integrating three different self-attention layers into the CNN framework. Applied to the AV1 codec, the proposed method significantly improves video quality by incorporating these distinct self-attention layers. This enhancement demonstrates the potential of self-attention mechanisms to revolutionize post-filtering techniques in video coding beyond the limitations of convolution-based methods. The experimental results show that the proposed network achieves an average BD-rate reduction of 10.40% for the Luma component and 19.22% and 16.52% for the Chroma components compared to the AV1 anchor. Visual quality assessments further validated the effectiveness of our approach, showcasing substantial artifact reduction and detail enhancement in videos.

The study establishes two mathematical formulations to predict the pressure drop in a solid–liquid slurry flowing through a straight pipe. Employing the Eulerian–Eulerian RNG k-ε model, the computational investigation uses water as the carrier fluid and glass beads as solid particles. The analysis spans various particle sizes (d50 = 75–175 μm), volumetric concentrations (Cvf = 10–50%), and velocities (Vm = 1–5 m/s). The first model, developed using the MATLAB curve-fitting tool, is complemented by a second empirical equation derived through non-polynomial mathematical formulation. Results from both models are validated against existing experimental and computational data, demonstrating accurate predictions for d50 = 75–175 µm particles within a Reynolds number range of 20,000 ≤ Re ≤ 320,000.
