Cover Story: We introduce a betting game where the gambler aims to guess the last success epoch in a series of inhomogeneous Bernoulli trials paced randomly in time. At a given stage, the gambler may bet on either the event that no further successes occur, or the event that exactly one success is yet to occur, or may choose any proper range of future times (a trap). When a trap is chosen, the gambler wins if the last success epoch is the only one that falls in the trap. The game is closely related to the sequential decision problem of maximising the probability of stopping on the last success. We use this connection to analyse the best-choice problem with random arrivals generated by a Pólya-Lundberg process. View this paper.

A novel fixed-point theorem based on the degree of nondensifiability (DND) is used in this article to examine the existence of solutions to a boundary value problem containing the ψ-Caputo fractional derivative in Banach spaces. Besides that, an...

In this paper, we consider numerical approximations of the Cahn–Hilliard type phase-field crystal model and construct a fully discrete finite element scheme for it. The scheme is the combination of the finite element method for spatial discreti...

In this work, we introduce a new type of surface called the Log Aesthetic Patch (LAP). This surface is an extension of the Coons surface patch, in which the four boundary curves are either planar or spatial Log Aesthetic Curves (LACs). To identify it...
