Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Functional equations have a long and fascinating history in relation to mathematical physics, as well as having impacts in many other areas of mathematics. In this Special Issue, we will cover some of the ways they have developed in the context of both classical and quantum totally integrable systems. These equations are frequently referred to as differential-difference equations with retarded arguments, and have an amazingly broad and diverse range of applications. Control systems, biological growth behavior, and econometrics are the most common of these. To find solutions with specific qualities, it is possible to research the symmetry properties of the functions used to build mathematical formulas. Regarding these formulas, the study of special functions and special polynomials, taking into account their symmetry features, can yield some intriguing findings.

In the present research, we establish an effective method for determining the time-fractional coupled Korteweg–de Vries (KdV) equation’s approximate solution employing the fractional derivatives of Caputo–Fabrizio and Atangana–Baleanu. KdV models are crucial because they can accurately represent a variety of physical problems, including thin-film flows and waves on shallow water surfaces. Some theoretical physical features of quantum mechanics are also explained by the KdV model. Many investigations have been conducted on this precisely solvable model. Numerous academics have proposed new applications for the generation of acoustic waves in plasma from ions and crystal lattices. Adomian decomposition and natural transform decomposition techniques are combined in the natural decomposition method (NDM). We first apply the natural transform to examine the fractional order and obtain a recurrence relation. Second, we use the Adomian decomposition approach to the recurrence relation, and then, using successive iterations and the initial conditions, we can establish the series solution. We note that the proposed fractional model is highly accurate and valid when using this technique. The numerical outcomes demonstrate that only a small number of terms are required to arrive at an approximation that is exact, efficient, and trustworthy. Two examples are given to illustrate how the technique performs. Tables and 3D graphs display the best current numerical and analytical results. The suggested method provides a series form solution, which makes it quite easy to understand the behavior of the fractional models. Full article

The main focus of this paper is the study of the Selberg operator. It aims to establish appropriate bounds for the norm and numerical radius of the product of three bounded operators, with one of them being a Selberg operator. Moreover, it offers several bounds involving the summation of operators, notably the Selberg operator. Through the examination of these properties and relationships, this study contributes to a better understanding of the Selberg operator and its influence on operator compositions. The paper also highlights the significance of symmetry in mathematics and its potential implications across various mathematical domains. Full article

For the analytic functions ϕ(ζ)=ζ+k=nϕkζk in the unit disk O, we calculate the values of n and α, where the condition 1+ζϕ(ζ)/ϕ(ζ)>α or 1+ζϕ(ζ)/ϕ(ζ)<1+α/2 yields univalence and starlikeness. Conditions imply ϕ in the class where all normalized analytic functions U, with ζ/ϕ(ζ)2ϕ(ζ)1<1 are obtained. Recent findings are gained, and unique cases are demonstrated. The generalization of the Jack lemma serves the proof of the main result and that our methodology is based on the idea of subordination. Full article

In this research, a novel linear operator involving the Borel distribution and Mittag-Leffler functions is introduced using Hadamard products or convolutions. This operator is utilized to develop new subfamilies of bi-univalent functions via the principle of subordination with Gegenbauer orthogonal polynomials. The investigation also focuses on the estimation of the coefficients |a|(=2,3) and the Fekete–Szegö inequality for functions belonging to these subfamilies of bi-univalent functions. Several corollaries and implications of the findings are discussed. Overall, this study presents a new approach for constructing bi-univalent functions and provides valuable insights for further research in this area. Full article

Images are frequently disrupted by noise of all kinds, making image restoration very challenging. There have been many different image denoising models proposed over the last few decades. Some models preserve the image’s smooth region, while others preserve the texture margin. One of these methods is by using quantum calculus. Quantum calculus is a branch of mathematics that deals with the manipulation of functions and operators in a quantum mechanical setting. It has been used in image processing to improve the speed and accuracy of image-processing algorithms. In quantum computing, entropy can be defined as a measure of the disorder or randomness of a quantum state. The concept of local fractional entropy has been used to study a wide range of quantum systems. In this study, an image denoising model is proposed based on the quantum calculus of local fractional entropy (QC-LFE) to remove a Gaussian noise. The local fractional entropy is used to estimate the image pixel probability, while the quantum calculus is used to estimate the convolution window mask for image denoising. A processing fractional mask with n x n elements was used in the suggested denoising algorithm. The proposed image denoising algorithm uses mask convolution to process each corrupted pixel one at a time. The proposed denoising algorithm’s effectiveness is assessed using peak signal-to-noise ratio and visual perception (PSNR). The experimental findings show that, compared to other similar fractional operators, the proposed method can better preserve texture details when denoising. Full article

The symmetric Schur process has many different types of formals, such as the functional differential, functional integral, and special functional processes based on special functions. In this effort, the normalized symmetric Schur process (NSSP) is defined and then used to determine the geometric and symmetric interpretations of mathematical expressions in a complex symmetric domain (the open unit disk). To obtain more symmetric properties involving NSSP, we consider a symmetric differential operator. The outcome is a symmetric convoluted operator. Geometrically, studies are presented for the suggested operator. Our method is based on the theory of differential subordination. Full article
