Stability of Weak Rescaled Pure Greedy Algorithms by Wan Li, Man Lu, Peixin Ye, Wenhui Zhang

“…We study the stability of Weak Rescaled Pure Greedy Algorithms for convex optimization, WRPGA(co), in general Banach spaces. We obtain the convergence rates of WRPGA(co) with noise and errors under a weaker assumption for the modulus of smoothness of the objective function. …”

THE CONCEPTUAL ROLE OF THE SHADOW ECONOMY IN ECONOMIC GROWTH by Юрій Коляда, Сергій Позняк

“…It is proposed to include indicators of the shadow and gray economies in multivariate economic growth models to increase the degree of adaptability of the models and to make more accurate forecasts. In economic growth models, the gray economy is taken into account by adjusting the savings parameters, while the shadow economy requires the introduction of a separate capital intensity equation based on its own production function. …”

Reading the Background: The Textual and the Visual in Steve Tomasula’s The Book of Portraiture by Pawel Frelik

“…The Book of Portraiture, the author’s 2006 novel, at first appears to be a much more humble affair in this respect. Its central preoccupation with titular portraits, or images of humanity in general, and the universal impulse to picture ourselves in paint, dreams, photography, electronic data and genetic code is first and foremost deployed in a series of interlocked and highly complex narrative chapters. …”

The Significance of Internal Variability for Numerical Experimentation and Analysis by Hans von Storch, Lin Lin

“…In the case of marginal seas, the process of baroclinic instability modulated by tides and the formation of seasonal thermoclines are significant aspects. Some more general aspects are discussed, such as the applicability of the stochastic climate model to systems outside of atmospheric and oceanic dynamics, for example, biogeochemical systems, the irreversibility of tipping points, the challenges of detecting changes beyond a noise level, and the attribution of causes of change.…”

Semi-analytical implicit direct time integration scheme on example of 1-D wave propagation problem by Igor Orynyak, Roman Mazuryk, Volodymyr Tsybulskyi

“…The crucial scheme parameter is the time interval – the lesser the interval the more correct results are obtained. Two other parameters of the scheme – space interval and the degree of polynomial approximation have minimal impact on the general behavior of solution and have influence on small zone near the front of the wave. …”

Positive and sign-changing solutions for Kirchhoff equations with indefinite potential by Yan-Fei Yang, Chun-Lei Tang

“…Under some suitable conditions on $ V $, we first prove that the problem has a positive ground state solution for all $ b > 0 $. Then, by using a more general global compactness lemma and a sign-changing Nehari manifold, combined with the method of constructing a sign-changing $ ({PS})_c $ sequence, we show the existence of a least energy sign-changing solution for $ b > 0 $ that is sufficiently small. …”
