    Abstract: The Hermite-Bieler theorem played key roles in several control theory problems including the proof of Kharitonov’s theorem and derivations of elementary proofs of the Routh’s algorithm for determining the Hurwitz stability of a real polynomial. In the present work, we explore the stability of complex continuous-time systems of differential equation... Show More

    Abstract: This paper analyses the effects of Gross Domestic Product growth (GDP) and Inflation rate (INF) on Unemployment rate (UMP) in Ghana’s economy using covariance matrix and multiple regression models. The two models were examined separately on the same data of three variables and the different outputs analysed to determine the effectiveness among the ... Show More

    Abstract: In this study the infected population is classified into two categories viz., chronic and acute and thus developed a five compartmental SEICIAR model. Also, both vaccination and treatments are included and studied their impact on the spread of hepatitis B virus. The present model is biologically meaningful and mathematically well posed since the so... Show More

    Abstract: In this paper, we study a class of the long-time behavior of solutions to initial-boundary value problems for higher order equations with nonlinear source term and strong damping term. First of all, give some space and marks as well as the basic assumption of stress and nonlinear source term, take the inner product on both sides of the equation and... Show More

    Abstract: Recently, the establishment of a multi-structure control system has demonstrated vital significance in practice. Its stability analysis are mostly determined by Lyapunov matrix equation. Tridiagonal-arrow matrix (TA matrix for short) is a special matrix with hybrid structure. In this paper, the problem of TA constraint solution to continuous Lyapun... Show More
