We consider fuzzy valued functions from two parametric representations of $alpha$-level sets. New concepts are introduced and compared with available notions. Following the two proposed approaches, we study fuzzy differential equations. Their relation with Zadeh's extension principle and the generalized Hukuhara derivative is discussed. Moreover, we prove existence and uniqueness theorems for fuzzy differential equations. Illustrative examples are given.

The linear 1D transport equation is likely the most solved transport equation in radiative transfer and neutron transport investigations. Nearly every method imaginable has been applied to establish solutions, including Laplace and Fourier transforms, singular eigenfunctions, solutions of singular integral equation, PN expansions, double PN expansions, Chebychev expansions, Lagrange polynomial expansions, numerical discrete ordinates with finite difference, analytical discrete ordinates, finite elements, solutions to integral equations, adding and doubling, invariant imbedding, solution of Ricatti equations and response matrix methods -- and probably more methods of which the authors are unaware. Of those listed, the response matrix solution to the discrete ordinates form of the 1D transport equation is arguably the simplest and most straightforward. Here, we propose another response of exponential solutions but to the first order equation enabled by matrix scaling.

The present paper aims to extend the knight's tour problem for $k$-dimensional grids of the form ${0,1}^k$ to other fairy chess leapers. Accordingly, we constructively show the existence of closed tours in $2 times 2 times cdots times 2$ ($k$ times) chessboards concerning the wazir, the threeleaper, and the zebra, for all $k geq 15$. Our result considers the three above-mentioned leapers and replicates for each of them the recent discovery of Euclidean knight's tours for the same set of $2 times 2 times cdots times 2$ grids, opening a new research path on the topic by studying different fairy chess leapers that perform jumps of fixed Euclidean length on given regular grids, visiting all their vertices exactly once before coming back to the starting one.
本文旨在将$k$维网格的${0,1}^k$形式的马巡游问题扩展到其他仙女棋跳跃者。相应地,我们构造性地证明了在所有$k geq 15$的2 times2 times cdots times 2$($k$次)棋盘中存在关于瓦齐尔、三跃马和斑马的封闭巡游。我们的结果考虑了上述三个跳跃者,并为它们中的每一个复制了最近在同一组 $2 times 2 times cdots times2$ 网格中发现的欧几里得骑士巡游,通过研究在给定正则网格上执行固定欧几里得长度跳跃的不同仙棋跳跃者,开辟了一条新的研究路径,这些跳跃者在回到起点之前会准确地访问它们的所有顶点一次。

In 1999, Molodtsov cite{1} developed the idea of soft set theory, proving it to be a flexible mathematical tool for dealing with uncertainty. Several researchers have extended the framework by combining it with other theories of uncertainty, such as fuzzy set theory, intuitionistic fuzzy soft set theory, rough soft set theory, and so on. These enhancements aim to increase the applicability and expressiveness of soft set theory, making it a more robust tool for dealing with complex, real-world problems characterized by uncertainty and vagueness. The notion of fuzzy soft sets and their associated operations were introduced by Maji et al. cite{7}. However, Molodtsov cite{3} identified numerous incorrect results and notions of soft set theory that were introduced in the paper cite{7}. Therefore, the derived concept of fuzzy soft sets is equally incorrect since the basic idea of soft sets in cite{7} is flawed. Consequently, it is essential to address these incorrect notions and provide an exact and formal definition of the idea of fuzzy soft sets. This reevaluation is important to guarantee fuzzy soft set theory's theoretical stability and practical application across a range of domains. In this paper, we propose fuzzy soft set theory based on Molodtsov's correct notion of soft set theory and demonstrate a fuzzy soft set in matrix form. Additionally, we derive several significant findings on fuzzy soft sets.
1999 年,莫洛佐夫(Molodtsov)提出了软集合理论的思想,证明它是处理不确定性的一种灵活的数学工具。一些研究者将该框架与其他不确定性理论相结合,如模糊集合理论、直觉模糊软集合理论、粗糙软集合理论等,从而扩展了该框架。这些改进旨在提高软集合理论的适用性和表达能力,使其成为处理以不确定性和模糊性为特征的复杂现实问题的更强大工具。模糊软集的概念及其相关运算是由 Maji 等人提出的。然而,莫洛佐夫(Molodtsov)指出了论文(cite{7})中引入的软集合理论的许多错误结果和概念。因此,由于 cite{7}中关于软集合的基本思想存在缺陷,因此衍生出的模糊软集合概念也同样是不正确的。这种重新评价对于保证模糊软集理论的理论稳定性和在一系列领域的实际应用是非常重要的。本文基于莫洛佐夫正确的软集合理论概念,提出了模糊软集合理论,并展示了矩阵形式的模糊软集合。此外,我们还得出了关于模糊软集的几个重要发现。

Prime factorization has been a buzzing topic in the field of number theory since time unknown. However, in recent years, alternative avenues to tackle this problem are being explored by researchers because of its direct application in the arena of cryptography. One of such applications is the cryptanalysis of RSA numbers, which requires prime factorization of large semiprimes. Based on numerical experiments, this paper proposes a conjecture on the distribution of digits on prime of infinite length. This paper infuses the theoretical understanding of primes to optimize the search space of prime factors by shrinking it upto 98.15%, which, in terms of application, has shown 26.50% increase in the success rate and 41.91% decrease of the maximum number of generations required by the genetic algorithm used traditionally in the literature. This paper also introduces a variation of the genetic algorithm named Sieve Method that is fine-tuned for factorization of big semi-primes, which was able to factor numbers up to 23 decimal digits with 84% success rate. Our findings shows that sieve methods on average has achieved 321.89% increase in success rate and 64.06% decrement in the maximum number of generations required for the algorithm to converge compared to the existing literatures.

Inspired by the ancient spiral constructed by the greek philosopher Theodorus which is based on concatenated right triangles, we have created a spiral. In this spiral, called emph{Fibonacci--Theodorus}, the sides of the triangles have lengths corresponding to Fibonacci numbers. Towards the end of the paper, we present a generalized method applicable to second-order recurrence relations. Our exploration of the Fibonacci--Theodorus spiral aims to address a variety of questions, showcasing its unique properties and behaviors. For example, we study topics such as area, perimeter, and angles. Notably, we establish a relationship between the ratio of two consecutive areas and the golden ratio, a pattern that extends to angles sharing a common vertex. Furthermore, we present some asymptotic results. For instance, we demonstrate that the sum of the first $n$ areas comprising the spiral approaches a multiple of the sum of the initial $n$ Fibonacci numbers. Moreover, we provide a sequence of open problems related to all spiral worked in this paper. Finally, in his work Hahn, Hahn observed a potential connection between the golden ratio and the ratio of areas between spines of lengths $sqrt{F_{n+1}}$ and $sqrt{F_{n+2}-1}$ and the areas between spines of lengths $sqrt{F_{n}}$ and $sqrt{F_{n+1}-1}$ in the Theodorus spiral. However, no formal proof has been provided in his work. In this paper, we provide a proof for Hahn's conjecture.

The main objective of this paper is to introduce an algorithm for solving fractional and classical differential equations based on a new generalized fractional power series. The algorithm relies on expanding the solution of an FDE or an ODE as a generalized power series, shedding light on the choice of the exponent for the monomials. Furthermore, it accommodates situations where terms in the equation are multiplied by $t^{alpha}$for example. The key contribution is how the exponents for these terms are chosen, which is different from traditional methods.
