This study is devoted to a local fractional differential-difference equation which is related to a nonlinear electrical transmission line. Explicit traveling wave solutions(kink/antikink solitons, singular,periodic, rational) are obtained via the discrete tanh method coupled with the fractional complex transform.展开更多

The authors analyze the bifurcation and chaotic behavior of the non-smooth dynamical systems. The authors first prove that for almost all system parameters there are no periodic orbits. This result distinguishes this type of non-smooth dynamical systems from many others exhibiting border-collision bifurcations. Next, the authors show analytically that the chaotic sets are separated from the region containing the line segment of all fixed points with a finite distance. Finally, the authors employ a simple model to highlight that both the number of clients sharing a common network channel and fluctuations in the available network bandwidth have significant influence on the performance of such dynamical systems.展开更多

Due to Cuba's highly successful national prevention program, we assume that the only mode of transmission is through contact with those yet to be diagnosed with HIV. We find the equilibria of the governing nonlinear system, perform a linear stability analysis, and then provide results on global stability.展开更多
