Modeling the impact of combined use of Covid Alert SA app and vaccination to curb Covid-19 infections in South Africa
(Public Library of Science, 2023)The unanticipated continued deep-rooted trend of the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Corona-virus-2 the originator pathogen of the COVID-19 persists posing concurrent anxiety globally. More effort is affixed in the ... -

Modelling the effect of bednet coverage on malaria transmission in South Sudan
(Public Library of Science, 2018)A campaign for malaria control, using Long Lasting Insecticide Nets (LLINs) was launched in South Sudan in 2009. The success of such a campaign often depends upon adequate available resources and reliable surveillance ... -
Multiplication of Crowns
(Instituto de Matematica de Bahia Blanca (INMABB-CONICET), 2013)It is known that the only nite topological spaces that are H-spaces are the discrete spaces. For a nite poset which is weakly equivalent to an H-space, a generalized multiplication may be found after suitable ... -
Neighbourhood operators: additivity, idempotency and convergence
(Springerlink, 2019)We define and discuss the notions of additivity and idempotency for neighbourhood and interior operators. We then propose an order-theoretic description of the notion of convergence that was introduced by D. Holgate and ... -
New parameter-uniform discretisations of singularly perturbed Volterra integro-differential equations
(Natural Sciences Publishing, 2018)We design and analyse two numerical methods namely a fitted mesh and a fitted operator finite difference methods for solving singularly perturbed Volterra integro-differential equations. The fitted mesh method we propose ... -
A new parameter-uniform discretization of semilinear singularly perturbed problems
(MDPI, 2022)In this paper, we present a numerical approach to solving singularly perturbed semilinear convection-diffusion problems. The nonlinear part of the problem is linearized via the quasilinearization technique. We then design ... -
A note on the stochastic version of the Gronwall lemma
(Taylor & Francis Group, 2022)We prove a stochastic version of the Gronwall lemma assuming that the underlying martingale has a terminal random value in Lp, where 1 p < 1: The proof of the present result is mainly based on a sharp martingale inequality ... -
A NSFD discretization of two-dimensional singularly perturbed semilinear convection-diffusion problems
(Frontiers Media, 2022)Despite the availability of an abundant literature on singularly perturbed problems, interest toward non-linear problems has been limited. In particular, parameter-uniform methods for singularly perturbed semilinear ... -
A NSFD method for the singularly perturbed Burgers-Huxley equation
(Frontiers Media, 2023)This article focuses on a numerical solution of the singularly perturbed Burgers-Huxley equation. The simultaneous presence of a singular perturbation parameter and the nonlinearity raise the challenge of finding a reliable ... -

Numerical solution for a problem arising in angiogenic signalling
(American Institute of Mathematical Sciences, 2019)Since the process of angiogenesis is controlled by chemical signals, which stimulate both repair of damaged blood vessels and formation of new blood vessels, then other chemical signals known as angiogenesis inhibitors ... -
Numerical treatment of Kap's equation using a class of fourth order method
(Academic Journals, 2011)Kap's equation is a stiff initial value problem. This paper deals with the treatment of Kap's equation using a class of 4th order explicit Runge-Kutta method. Numerical computation was carried out using Microsoft Visual ... -
On maximal inequalities via comparison principle
(SpringerOpen, 2015)Under certain conditions, we prove a new class of one-sided, weighted, maximal inequalities for a standard Brownian motion. Our method of proof is mainly based on a comparison principle for solutions of a system of ... -
On the exact constants in one-sided maximal inequalitiesfor Bessel processes
(Taylor and Francis Group, 2023)In this paper, we establish a one-sided maximal moment inequalitywith exact constants for Bessel processes. As a consequence, weobtain an exact constant in the Burkholder-Gundy inequality. Theproof of our main result is ... -
One-sided maximal inequalities for a randomly stopped bessel process
(Taylor & Francis Group, LLC, 2023)We prove a one-sided maximal inequality for a randomly stopped Bessel process of dimension (Formula presented.) For the special case when α = 1, we obtain a sharp Burkholder-Gundy inequality for Brownian motion as a ... -
An optimal portfolio and capital management strategy for basel III compliant commercial banks
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2014)We model a Basel III compliant commercial bank that operates in a financial market consisting of a treasury security, a marketable security, and a loan and we regard the interest rate in the market as being stochastic. We ... -
Optimal strategy for controlling the spread of HIV/AIDS disease: A case study of South Africa
(Taylor and Francis Group, 2012)HIV/AIDS disease continues to spread alarmingly despite the huge amounts of resources invested infighting it. There is a need to integrate the series of control measures available to ensure a consistentreduction ... -
Performance of Richardson extrapolation on some numerical methods for a singularly perturbed turning point problem whose solution has boundary layers
(KOREAN MATHEMATICAL SOC, 2014)Investigation of the numerical solution of singularly perturbed turning point problems dates back to late 1970s. However, due to the presence of layers, not many high order schemes could be developed to solve such problems. ... -
Protein interaction networks as metric spaces: A novel perspective on distribution of hubs
(BMC, 2014)In the post-genomic era, a central and overarching question in the analysis of protein-protein interaction networks continues to be whether biological characteristics and functions of proteins such as lethality, physiological ...
