Pareto-type distributions are well-known distributions used to fit heavy-tailed data. However, the standard parameterizations used for Pareto-type distributions are poorly suited to modeling. On this note, we suggest new parameterizations that are better suited to the purpose. In addition, we propose many regression models where the response variable is Pareto-type distributed using new parameterizations that are indexed by mean and precision parameters. The main motivation for these new parametrizations is the useful interpretation of the regression coefficients in terms of the mean and precision, as is usual in the context of regression models. The parameter estimation of these new models is performed, based on the maximum likelihood paradigm. Some numerical illustrations of the estimators are presented with a discussion of the obtained results. Finally, we illustrate the practicality of the new models by means of two applications to real data sets. Full article

In view of these, we obtain some integral inequalities of Steffensen, Hermite–Hadamard, Chebyshev, Ostrowski, and Grüss type to the [...] Read more.

Abstract
In this article, two new families of distributions are proposed: the generalized log-Lindley-G (GLL-G) and its counterpart, the GLL*-G. These families can be justified by their relation to the log-Lindley model, an important assumption for describing social and economic phenomena. Specific GLL models [...] Read more.
In this article, two new families of distributions are proposed: the generalized log-Lindley-G (GLL-G) and its counterpart, the GLL*-G. These families can be justified by their relation to the log-Lindley model, an important assumption for describing social and economic phenomena. Specific GLL models are introduced and studied. We show that the GLL density is rewritten as a two-member linear combination of the exponentiated G-densities and that, consequently, many of its mathematical properties arise directly, such as moment-based expressions. A maximum likelihood estimation procedure for the GLL parameters is provided and the behavior of the resulting estimates is evaluated by Monte Carlo experiments. An application to repairable data is made. The results argue for the use of the exponential law as the basis for the GLL-G family. Full article

In this paper, a comparative study has been made between different algorithms to find the numerical solutions of the fractional-order clock chemical model (FOCCM). The spectral collocation method (SCM) with the shifted Legendre polynomials, the two-stage fractional Runge–Kutta method (TSFRK) and the four-stage fractional Runge–Kutta method (FSFRK) are used to approximate the numerical solutions of FOCCM. Our results are compared with the results obtained for the numerical solutions that are based upon the fundamental theorem of fractional calculus as well as the Lagrange polynomial interpolation (LPI). Firstly, the accuracy of the results is checked by computing the absolute error between the numerical solutions by using SCM, TSFRK, FSFRK, and LPI and the exact solution in the case of the fractional-order logistic equation (FOLE). The numerical results demonstrate the accuracy of the proposed method. It is observed that the FSFRK is better than those by SCM, TSFRK and LPI in the case of an integer order. However, the non-integer orders in the cases of the SCM and LPI are better than those obtained by using the TSFRK and FSFRK. Secondly, the absolute error between the numerical solutions of FOCCM based upon SCM, TSFFRK, FSFRK, and LPI for integer order and non-integer order has been computed. The absolute error in the case of the integer order by using the three methods of the third order is considered. For the non-integer order, the order of the absolute error in the case of SCM is found to be the best. Finally, these results are graphically illustrated by means of different figures. Full article

First, by making use of the concept of basic (or q-) calculus, as well as the principle of subordination between analytic functions, generalization Rq(h) of the class R(h) of analytic functions, which are associated with the leaf-like domain in the open unit disk U, is given. Then, the coefficient estimates, the Fekete–Szegö problem, and the second-order Hankel determinant H2(1) for functions belonging to this class Rq(h) are investigated. Furthermore, similar results are examined and presented for the functions zf(z) and f1(z). For the validity of our results, relevant connections with those in earlier works are also pointed out.

Abstract
The concept of the deferred Nörlund equi-statistical convergence was introduced and studied by Srivastava et al. [Rev. Real Acad. Cienc. Exactas Fís. Nat. Ser. A Mat. (RACSAM) 112 (2018), 1487–1501]. In the present paper, we have studied the notion of the deferred Nörlund [...] Read more.
The concept of the deferred Nörlund equi-statistical convergence was introduced and studied by Srivastava et al. [Rev. Real Acad. Cienc. Exactas Fís. Nat. Ser. A Mat. (RACSAM) 112 (2018), 1487–1501]. In the present paper, we have studied the notion of the deferred Nörlund statistical convergence and the statistical deferred Nörlund summability for sequences of real numbers defined over a Banach space. We have also established a theorem presenting a connection between these two interesting notions. Moreover, based upon our proposed methods, we have proved a new Korovkin-type approximation theorem with algebraic test functions for a sequence of real numbers on a Banach space and demonstrated that our theorem effectively extends and improves most of the earlier existing results (in classical and statistical versions). Finally, we have presented an example involving the generalized Meyer–König and Zeller operators of a real sequence demonstrating that our theorem is a stronger approach than its classical and statistical versions.

The motive behind this article is to apply the notions of q-derivative by introducing some new families of harmonic functions associated with the symmetric circular region. We develop a new criterion for sense preserving and hence the univalency in terms of q-differential operator. The necessary and sufficient conditions are established for univalency for this newly defined class. We also discuss some other interesting properties such as distortion limits, convolution preserving, and convexity conditions. Further, by using sufficient inequality, we establish sharp bounds of the real parts of the ratios of harmonic functions to its sequences of partial sums. Some known consequences of the main results are also obtained by varying the parameters. Full article
