The Fourier transform plays a crucial role in statistics, applied mathematics, and engineering sciences. In this study, we give a definition of the two-dimensional quaternion Fourier transform, which is an extension of the two-dimensional Fourier transform. We present a new convolution theorem including this transformation. We study the characteristic function in the setting of quaternion algebra and obtain the essential properties. Based on this, we seek the expected value, variance, covariance, and their basic relations to the two-dimensional quaternion Fourier transform. We illustrate the results by giving examples to see how the obtained results differ from the classical case. Full article

The paper examines the valuation and hedging of life insurance obligations in the presence of mortality risk using the local risk-minimizing hedging approach. Roughly speaking, it is assumed that the lifetime of policyholders in an insurance portfolio is modeled by a point process whose stochastic intensity is controlled by a diffusion process. The stock price process is assumed to be a regime-switching Lévy process with non-zero regime-switching drift, where the parameters are assumed to depend on the economic states. Using the Föllmer–Schweizer decomposition, the main valuation and hedging results for a conditional payment process are determined. Some specific situations have been considered in which the local risk-minimizing strategies for a stream of liability payments or a unit-linked contract are presented. Full article

Bernoulli and Euler numbers and polynomials are well known and find applications in various areas of mathematics, such as number theory, combinatorial mathematics, series expansions, and the theory of special functions. Using fractional exponential functions, we extend the classical Bernoulli and Euler numbers and polynomials to introduce their fractional-index-based types. This reveals a symmetry in relation to the classical numbers and polynomials. We demonstrate some examples of these generalized mathematical entities, which we derive using the computer algebra system Mathematica©. Full article

The paper will allow the interpretation of exchange rate fluctuations for several international currencies, the EUR—European currency and the CHF—Swiss Franc, respectively. The fractal dimension versus box-counting dimension, together with the fractal dimension versus log scale for CHF and EUR, respectively, are thoroughly presented. The exchange rate time series for CHF and EUR during March–June 2022 were also analyzed. The Hurst exponent H was numerically evaluated. By the application of directional symmetry (DS) statistics, the model efficiency in predicting the direction modification of time series has been verified. Ultimately, the prognosis of EUR-RON and CHF-RON exchange rates of the time series fluctuations for the last months (August–December) of the year 2022 was performed. Full article

The key motive of this paper is to study symmetric additive mappings and discuss their applications. The study of these symmetric mappings makes it possible to characterize symmetric n-derivations and describe the structure of the quotient ring S/P, where S is any ring and P is a prime ideal of S. The symmetricity of additive mappings allows us to transfer ring theory results to functional analyses, particularly to C-algebras. Precisely, we describe the structures of C-algebras via symmetric additive mappings. Full article

In this paper, we investigate the oscillatory behavior of solutions of second-order differential equations with a superlinear neutral term and a damping term in noncanonical forms. We do not place any additional conditions on the damping term. Therefore, our results apply to new classes of equations that were not covered by the previous criteria. According to symmetry between the negative and positive solutions of the studied equation, we present some new criteria that ensure the oscillation of all solutions by using the Riccati transformation and comparison method. We provide an example to illustrate our main results. Full article
