In this paper, we use Schauder and Banach fixed point theorems to study the existence, uniqueness and stability of bounded nonhomogeneous iterative functional differential equations of the form x' (t) = λ1x(t) + λ2x[2](t)+...+λnx[n](t)+f(t). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper is concerned with a Shimizu-Morioka model with constant delays. Its stability of the equilibrium is investigated and the existence of Hopf bifurcations is demonstrated by analyzing the associated characteristic equation. Furthermore, the explicit formulae determining the stability and the direction of periodic solutions bifurcating from Hopf bifurcations are obtained by applying the center manifold theory and the normal form method. Finally, special attention is paid to numerical simulations in order to verify the theoretical predictions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we consider a discrete population model and obtain a couple of criteria to guarantee our model being stable, including the global attractor, the extreme stability, and the periodicity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we introduce two new generalized inverses of matrices, namely, the hi;mi-core inverse and the (j, m)-core inverse. The (i, m)-core inverse of a complex matrix extends the notions of the core inverse defined by Baksalary and Trenkler [1] and the core-EP inverse defined by Manjunatha Prasad and Mohana [10]. The (j, m)-core inverse of a complex matrix extends the notions of the core inverse and the DMP-inverse defined by Malik and Thome [9]. Moreover, the formulae and properties of these two new concepts are investigated by using matrix decompositions and matrix powers. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In the present paper, we introduce new families of the q-Fibonacci and q-Lucas polynomials, which are represented here as the incomplete q-Fibonacci polynomials Fnk (x, s, q) and the incomplete q-Lucas polynomials Lnk (x, s, q), respectively. These polynomials provide the q-analogues of the incomplete Fibonacci and Lucas numbers. We give several properties and generating functions of each of these families q-polynomials. We also point out the fact that the results for the q-analogues which we consider in this article for 0 < q < 1 can easily be translated into the corresponding results for the (p, q)-analogues (with 0 < q < p ≥ 1) by applying some obvious parametric variations, the additional parameter p being redundant.

The aim of this paper is to introduce two new classes of multifunctions called almost δ-semicontinuous multifunctions and weakly δ-semicontinuous multifunctions which are generalization of δ-semicontinuous multifunctions. In this paper we obtain several properties of such multifunctions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper is devoted to studying the growth and oscillation of solutions and their derivatives of equations of the type f''+ A(z) f' + B(z) f = F(z), where A(z), B(z) (≢0) and F(z) (≢0) are meromorphic functions of finite order. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The aims of this paper are introduce the notions of symmetric bi-derivation and generalized derivation in MV-algebras and investigate some of their properties. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper we prove existence results for boundary value problems for higher-order differential inclusion x(n) (t) ϵ F(t, x (t)) with nonlocal boundary conditions, where F is a compact convex L¹-Carathéodory multifunction. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
