This paper considers a numerical method for solving the stochastic semilinear subdiffusion equation which is driven by integrated fractional Gaussian noise and the Hurst parameter H(1/2,1). The finite element method is employed for spatial discretization, while the L1 scheme and Lubich’s first-order convolution quadrature formula are used to approximate the Caputo time-fractional derivative of order α(0,1) and the Riemann–Liouville time-fractional integral of order γ(0,1), respectively. Using the semigroup approach, we establish the temporal and spatial regularity of the mild solution to the problem. The fully discrete solution is expressed as a convolution of a piecewise constant function with the inverse Laplace transform of a resolvent-related function. Based on the Laplace transform method and resolvent estimates, we prove that the proposed numerical scheme has the optimal convergence order O(τmin{H+α+γ1ε,α}),ε>0. Numerical experiments are presented to validate these theoretical convergence orders and demonstrate the effectiveness of this method. Full article

Differential equations are frequently used to mathematically describe many problems in real life, but they are always subject to intrinsic phenomena that are neglected and could influence how the model behaves. In some cases like ecosystems, electrical circuits, or even economic models, the model may suddenly change due to outside influences. Occasionally, such changes start off impulsively and continue to exist for specific amounts of time. Non-instantaneous impulses are used in the creation of the models for this kind of scenario. In this paper, a new class of non-instantaneous impulsive ψ-Caputo fractional stochastic differential equations under integral boundary conditions driven by the Rosenblatt process was examined. Semigroup theory, stochastic theory, the Banach fixed-point theorem, and fractional calculus were applied to investigating the existence of piecewise continuous mild solutions for the systems under consideration. The impulsive Gronwall’s inequality was employed to establish the unique stability conditions for the system under consideration. Furthermore, we examined the controllability results of the proposed system. Finally, some examples were provided to demonstrate the validity of the presented work. Full article

For lithium-ion batteries and supercapacitors in hybrid power storage facilities, both steady degradation and random shock contribute to their failure. To this end, in this paper, we propose to introduce the degradation-threshold-shock (DTS) model for their remaining useful life (RUL) prediction. Non-homogeneous compound Poisson process (NHCP) is proposed to simulate the shock effect in the DTS model. Considering the long-range dependence and heavy-tailed characteristics of the degradation process, fractional Weibull process (fWp) is employed in the diffusion term of the stochastic degradation model. Furthermore, the drift and diffusion coefficients are constantly updated to describe the environmental interference. Prior to the model training, steady degradation and shock data must be separated, based on the three-sigma principle. Degradation data for the lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) and ultracapacitors are employed for model verification under different operation protocols in the power system. Recent deep learning models and stochastic process-based methods are utilized for model comparison, and the proposed model shows higher prediction accuracy. Full article

This paper introduces the fractional Heston-type (fHt) model as a stochastic system comprising the stock price process modeled by a geometric Brownian motion. In this model, the infinitesimal return volatility is characterized by the square of a singular stochastic equation driven by a fractional Brownian motion with a Hurst parameter H(0,1). We establish the Malliavin differentiability of the fHt model and derive an expression for the expected payoff function, revealing potential discontinuities. Simulation experiments are conducted to illustrate the dynamics of the stock price process and option prices. Full article

Our recent analysis of empirical limit order flow data in financial markets reveals a power-law distribution in limit order cancellation times. These times are modeled using a discrete probability mass function derived from the Tsallis q-exponential distribution, closely aligned with the second form of the Pareto distribution. We elucidate this distinctive power-law statistical property through the lens of agent heterogeneity in trading activity and asset possession. Our study introduces a novel modeling approach that combines fractional Lévy stable motion for limit order inflow with this power-law distribution for cancellation times, significantly enhancing the prediction of order imbalances. This model not only addresses gaps in current financial market modeling but also extends to broader contexts such as opinion dynamics in social systems, capturing the finite lifespan of opinions. Characterized by stationary increments and a departure from self-similarity, our model provides a unique framework for exploring long-range dependencies in time series. This work paves the way for more precise financial market analyses and offers new insights into the dynamic nature of opinion formation in social systems. Full article
