Abstract Migration and remittances now shape entrepreneurial ecosystems across the developing world, yet their effects remain contradictory: financial remittances sometimes spur new ventures and sometimes suppress them, and emigrant stocks produce inconsistent outcomes across con...

Trajectory Controllability and Ulam–Hyer's Stability for Higher‐Order Coupled Hilfer Fractional Neutral Stochastic Integro‐Differential Equations via Measure of Non‐Compactness

ABSTRACT The present manuscript investigates the controllability and stability of coupled higher‐order Hilfer fractional neutral stochastic integro‐differential systems (HFNSIDSs) driven by fractional Brownian motion (FBM). To the best of our knowledge, the study of coupled highe...

Reproducibility, Replicability, and Research Quality in Homogeneous Catalysis

Abstract Researchers from all sectors of homogeneous catalysis convened in response to concerns regarding reproducibility in science to analyze the issue and provide recommendations. In addition to an in-person workshop, the group engaged the broader homogeneous catalysis communi...

Bridging Operations Research and Data Science in an Undergraduate Curriculum

This paper presents the design and implementation of a project-based undergraduate course that integrates systems modeling and operations research to prepare students for data-driven decision-making. Developed within an applied mathematics program, the course addresses a curricul...
