Coordination of Plug-In Electric Vehicle Charging in a Stochastic Framework: A Decentralized Tax/Incentive-Based Mechanism to Reach Global Optimality

Simone Balmelli, Francesco Moresino • Mathematics (2023)

We address the problem of charging plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) in a decentralized way and under stochastic dynamics affecting the real-time electricity tariff. The model is formulated as a Nash equilibrium seeking problem, where player...

A Fractional-Order Complexity Framework for Misinformation Propagation With Fact-Checking Saturation and Social Vulnerability Dynamics

Shewafera Wondimagegnhu Teklu, M. A. Abdelkawy, Waleed Adel • Complexity (2026)

Misinformation spreads through communities in ways that resemble infectious diseases, but existing mathematical models often miss three real-world complexities: People remember past information (memory effects), some folks are more easily f...

The Mathematics of Infectious Diseases

Herbert W. Hethcote • SIAM Review (2000)

Abstract. Many models for the spread of infectious diseases in populations have been analyzed mathematically and applied to specific diseases. Threshold theorems involving the basic reproduction number [Formula: see text], the contact numbe...

Changing Movements in a Changing World: Modelling Early Pleistocene and Early Middle Pleistocene Climatic and Ecological Environments and Influences on Hominin Dispersal in Eurasia

Kamilla L. Lomborg, Carolina Cucart-Mora, Jan-Olaf Reschke, Christine Hertler et al. • Journal of Computer Applications in Archaeology (2026)

In a world of drastic climatic and ecological changes, our knowledge of how the environment influenced hominin behaviour is of the utmost importance. Archaeology plays a key role in this domain, as it is the only discipline that studies emp...

The Effects of the Weak Allee Effect and Disease on the Dynamics of a Predator–Prey System: Stability and Bifurcation Properties

Yurong Dong, Hua Liu, Jianhua Ye, Gang Ma et al. • Axioms (2025)

In this paper, an eco-epidemiological model with a weak Allee effect and prey disease dynamics is discussed. Mathematical features such as non-negativity, boundedness of solutions, and local stability of the feasible equilibria are discusse...

Cooperation-Based Modeling of Sustainable Development: An Approach from Filippov’s Systems

Jorge A. Amador, Johan Manuel Redondo, Gerard Olivar‐Tost, Christian Erazo • Complexity (2021)

The concept of Sustainable Development has given rise to multiple interpretations. In this article, it is proposed that Sustainable Development should be interpreted as the capacity of territory, community, or landscape to conserve the noti...

Chaotic outbreak in discrete epidemic model with vaccination and quarantine interventions and limited medical resources

Faizal Rifky Fahreza, Moh Hasan, Kiswara Agung Santoso • Majalah Ilmiah Matematika dan Statistika (2025)

The spread of infectious diseases can be analyzed dynamically using a discrete dynamic system. The characteristics of the infectious disease phenomenon are interesting to study as parameters considered in a dynamic system. Some of these inc...
