In this paper, we focus on Brauer’s height zero conjecture, Robinson’s conjecture, and Olsson’s conjecture regarding the direct product of finite groups and give relative versions of these conjectures by restricting them to the algebraic concept of the anchor group of an irreducible character. Consider G to be a finite simple group. We prove that the anchor group of the irreducible character of G with degree p is the trivial group, where p is an odd prime. Additionally, we introduce the relative version of the Green correspondence theorem with respect to this group. We then apply the relative versions of these conjectures to suitable examples of simple groups. Classical and standard theories on the direct product of finite groups, block theory, and character theory are used to achieve these results.

This paper contributes to the problem of chaos and hyperchaos localization in the fundamental structure of analog building blocks dedicated to single-tone harmonic signal generation. This time, the known Reinartz sinusoidal oscillator is addressed, considering its conventional topology, both via numerical analysis and experiments using a flow-equivalent lumped electronic circuit. It is shown that physically reasonable values of circuit parameters can result in robust dynamical behavior characterized by a pair of positive Lyapunov exponents. Mandatory numerical results prove that discovered strange attractors exhibit all necessary fingerprints of structurally stable chaos. The new “chaotic” parameters are closely related to the standard operation of the investigated analog functional block. A few interestingly shaped, strange attractors have been captured as oscilloscope screenshots.

The accurate quantification of mutation rates holds significance across diverse fields, including evolution, cancer research, and antimicrobial resistance. Eighty years ago, Luria and Delbrück demonstrated that the proper quantification of mutation rates requires one to account for the non-linear relationship between the number of mutations and the final number of mutants in a cell population. An extensive body of literature has since emerged, offering increasingly efficient methods to account for this phenomenon, with different alternatives balancing accuracy and user-friendliness for experimentalists. Nevertheless, statistically inappropriate approaches, such as using arithmetic averages of mutant frequencies as a proxy for the mutation rate, continue to be commonplace. Here, we conducted a comprehensive re-analysis of 140 publications from the last two decades, revealing general trends in the adoption of proper mutation rate estimation methods. Our findings demonstrate an upward trajectory in the utilization of best statistical practices, likely due to the wider availability of off-the-shelf computational tools. However, the usage of inappropriate statistical approaches varies substantially across specific research areas, and it is still present even in journals with the highest impact factors. These findings aim to inspire both experimentalists and theoreticians to find ways to further promote the adoption of best statistical practices for the reliable estimation of mutation rates in all fields.

This paper proposes a method for ranking generalized fuzzy numbers, which guarantees that both horizontal and vertical values are important parameters affecting the final ranking score. In this method, the normalized height coefficient is introduced to evaluate the influence of the height of fuzzy numbers on the final ranking score. The higher the normalized height coefficient of a generalized fuzzy number is, the higher its ranking. The left and right areas are presented to calculate the impact of the vertical value on the final ranking score. The left area is considered the benefit area. The right area is considered the cost area. A generalized fuzzy number is preferred if the benefit area is larger and the cost area is smaller. The proposed method can be employed to rank both normal and non-normal fuzzy numbers without normalization or height minimization. Numerical examples and comparisons with other methods highlight the feasibility and robustness of the proposed method, which can overcome the shortcomings of some existing methods and can support decision-makers in selecting the best alternative.

Due to various unpredictable factors, a decision maker frequently experiences uncertainty and hesitation when dealing with real-world practical optimization problems. At times, it’s necessary to simultaneously optimize a number of non-linear and competing objectives. Linear Diophantine fuzzy numbers are used to address the uncertain parameters that arise in these circumstances. The objective of this manuscript is to present a method for solving a linear Diophantine fuzzy multi-objective nonlinear programming problem (LDFMONLPP). All the coefficients of the nonlinear multi-objective functions and the constraints are linear Diophantine fuzzy numbers (LDFNs). Here we find the solution of the nonlinear programming problem by using Karush-Kuhn-Tucker condition. A numerical example is presented.

Many different number systems have been the topic of research. One of the recently studied number systems is that of hybrid numbers, which are generalizations of other number systems. In this work, we introduce and study the hybrid hyper k-Pell, hybrid hyper k-Pell–Lucas, and hybrid hyper Modified k-Pell numbers. In order to study these new sequences, we established new properties, generating functions, and the Binet formula of the hyper k-Pell, hyper k-Pell–Lucas, and hyper Modified k-Pell sequences. Thus, we present some algebraic properties, recurrence relations, generating functions, the Binet formulas, and some identities for the hybrid hyper k-Pell, hybrid hyper k-Pell–Lucas, and hybrid hyper Modified k-Pell numbers.

Firstly, a basic question to find the Laplace transform using the classical representation of gamma function makes no sense because the singularity at the origin nurtures so rapidly that Γze−sz cannot be integrated over positive real numbers. Secondly, Dirac delta function is a linear functional under which every function f is mapped to f(0). This article combines both functions to solve the problems that have remained unsolved for many years. For instance, it has been demonstrated that the power law feature is ubiquitous in theory but challenging to observe in practice. Since the fractional derivatives of the delta function are proportional to the power law, we express the gamma function as a complex series of fractional derivatives of the delta function. Therefore, a unified approach is used to obtain a large class of ordinary, fractional derivatives and integral transforms. All kinds of q-derivatives of these transforms are also computed. The most general form of the fractional kinetic integrodifferential equation available in the literature is solved using this particular representation. We extend the models that were valid only for a class of locally integrable functions to a class of singular (generalized) functions. Furthermore, we solve a singular fractional integral equation whose coefficients have infinite number of singularities, being the poles of gamma function. It is interesting to note that new solutions were obtained using generalized functions with complex coefficients.

We developed a repeated quantum game of public goods by using quantum entanglement and strong reciprocity mechanisms. Utilizing the framework of quantum game analysis, a comparative investigation incorporating both entangled and non-entangled states reveals that the player will choose a fully cooperative strategy when the expected cooperation strategy of the competitor exceeds a certain threshold. When the entanglement of states is not considered, the prisoner’s dilemma still exists, and the cooperating party must bear the cost of defactoring the quantum strategy themselves; when considering the entanglement of states, the benefits of both parties in the game are closely related, forming a community of benefits. By signing a strong reciprocity contract, the degree of cooperation between the game parties can be considered using the strong reciprocity entanglement contract mechanism. The party striving to cooperate does not have to bear the risk of the other party’s defector, and to some extent, it can solve the prisoner’s dilemma problem. Finally, taking the public goods green planting industry project as an example, by jointly entrusting a third party to determine and sign a strong reciprocity entanglement contract, both parties can ensure a complete quantum strategy to maximize cooperation and achieve Pareto optimality, ultimately enabling the long-term and stable development of the public goods industry project.

The notion of quasi-Jordan algebras was originally proposed by R. Velasquez and R. Fellipe. Later, M. R. Bremner provided a modification called K-B quasi-Jordan algebras; these include all Jordan algebras and all dialgebras, and hence all associative algebras. Any quasi-Jordan algebra is special if it is isomorphic to a quasi-Jordan subalgebra of some dialgebras. Keeping in view the pivotal role of homotopes in the theory of Jordan algebras, we begin a study of the homotopes of quasi-Jordan algebras; among other related results, we show that the homotopes of any special quasi-Jordan algebra are special quasi-Jordan algebras and that the homotopes of a K-B quasi-Jordan algebra is a quasi-Jordan algebra. In the sequel, we also give some open problems.

Spectral graph theory is like a special tool for understanding graphs. It helps us find patterns and connections in complex networks, using the magic of eigenvalues. Let G be the graph and A(G) be its adjacency matrix, then G is singular if the determinant of the adjacency matrix A(G) is 0, otherwise it is nonsingular. Within the realm of nonsingular graphs, there is the concept of property R, where each eigenvalue’s reciprocal is also an eigenvalue of G. By introducing multiplicity constraints on both eigenvalues and their reciprocals, it becomes property SR. Similarly, the world of nonsingular graphs reveals property −R, where the negative reciprocal of each eigenvalue also finds a place within the spectrum of G. Moreover, when the multiplicity of each eigenvalue and its negative reciprocal is equal, this results in a graph with a property of −SR. Some classes of unweighted nonbipartite graphs are already constructed in the literature with the help of the complete graph Kn and a copy of the path graph P4 satisfying property R but not SR. This article takes this a step further. The main aim is to construct several weighted classes of graphs which satisfy property R but not SR. For this purpose, the weight functions are determined that enable these nonbipartite graph classes to satisfy the −SR and R properties, even if the unweighted graph does not satisfy these properties. Some examples are presented to support the investigated results. These examples explain how certain weight functions make these special types of graphs meet the properties R or −SR, even when the original graphs without weights do not meet these properties.
