Abel summability of a system of root functions of an even-order differential operator with integral conditions
Abstract
We consider an ordinary 2m-th order differential operator with purely integral conditions. In this case, the domain of definition of the corresponding operator is not dense in L2(0,1). Under certain conditions for the weight functions included in the integral conditions, the Abel summability of the system of root functions of the corresponding differential operator is proved.

Partial integral operators with weak singularity
Abstract
We study a partial integral operator with a weak singularity in Rn in the anisotropic space of continuous functions with values in the space Lp, p ∈ (1,∞). We prove theorems on the uniform boundedness and equicontinuity of the operator under study. These theorems imply a theorem on the mapping of any bounded and equicontinuous set into a precompact set by a partial integral operator with a weak singularity acting from the space of functions continuous in some variables with values in Lp with respect to the other part of the variables to the space of continuous functions.

Coalition game-theoretic models of capital structure and their parametric analysis
Abstract
This work is a continuation of the research conducted in [2,3]. When forming the capital structure of enterprises (determining the shares of borrowed and equity funds), the balance of interests of owners and managers plays an important role. In this case, the owner is interested in obtaining the maximum return on his capital (maximizing its rentability ROE), and the manager — in increasing the financial stability of the company by reducing the weighted average cost of capital WACC. Resolving the conflict situation is possible, as shown by the authors, within the framework of nonantagonistic game theory, namely in the context of a bimatrix game and a cooperative game of two people. The owners of enterprises Πi were chosen as player A, and the ROE values of enterprises from a representative sample, observed in a certain period T, were chosen as the components of his game matrix. The role of player B was played by the managers of enterprises Πi, and the components of his game matrix were values of the form 1/(1+ WACC) determined in the same period T. The algorithms for finding the Nash equilibrium capital structure for both models were tested using real data for five enterprises in the metallurgical segment observed over a period of 5 years. As a result, it was possible not only to obtain new methods for determining the balanced capital structure, but also to analyze the stability of the obtained solutions with respect to perturbations of the initial data (reduced game matrices), which made it possible to calculate the corridors of possible changes in ROE and WACC for the reference set of enterprises Πα in the selected (shortened) observation period, as well as to outline paths for further development of this topic.

Existence of a wave front in a model of the dynamics of a low-viscosity compressible fluid
Abstract
In this paper, we consider a model of an emulsion of two liquids in a three-dimensional domain filled with one liquid and having small inclusions of another liquid. For analysis in such combined media, it is assumed that the structure of the domain is periodic with rapidly alternating parameters, while the characteristic size of the alternation is taken as a small parameter ε > 0. The question of the existence of a sound propagation front for this model is investigated for the corresponding effective boundary value problem with integro-differential equations with slowly varying coefficients obtained by the method of asymptotic averaging at ε → 0. It is shown that with a certain smoothness of the density change between phases, there is a leading edge in the effective model. Thus, it is proved that with a finite initial perturbation of the combined medium under consideration, the propagation of vibrations will have a finite velocity.

Asymptotic behavior of solutions of an incomplete second-order integro-differential equation
Abstract
In this paper, we study an incomplete second-order integro-differential operator equation in a Hilbert space. The difference-type kernel of an integral perturbation is a holomorphic semigroup bordered by unbounded operators. The asymptotic behavior of solutions of this equation is studied. Asymptotic formulas for solutions are proved in the case when the right-hand side is close to an almost periodic function. The obtained formulas are applied to one equation describing a number of applications from the mechanics of viscoelastic systems.

Asymptotics of stationary distributions in diffusion-reaction systems for two interacting biological species
Abstract
Asymptotic approximations to stationary solutions are constructed for two classes of diffusion–reaction systems describing the interactions of biological species (competition and predator– prey) in a heterogeneous habitat. The initial models are supplemented with periodicity conditions on a one-dimensional area; the diffusion coefficients are assumed to be small and, generally speaking, multi-scale. Under the assumption that the degenerate system admits a solution in the form of an ideal free distribution (IFD), methods of singular perturbation theory are used to obtain explicit analytical formulas for the leading terms of the asymptotics. It is established that diffusion corrections to the IFD are proportional to the local curvature of the resource profile \( p''(x)/p(x) \) and are determined by both the parameters of interspecies interaction and the ratio of the diffusion coefficients. For a predator–prey system, it is shown that resource heterogeneity significantly influences the predator distribution, while the prey distribution remains close to the IFD even at relatively high diffusion values. A quantitative criterion for the applicability of the asymptotic model is formulated, allowing for an a priori assessment of its accuracy for an arbitrary resource profile. The reliability of the analytical results is confirmed by numerical calculations.

Oscillatory properties of the spectrum of a fourth-order operator on a cross graph
Abstract
The oscillatory properties of the spectrum of a problem on the natural vibrations of a cross-shaped rod system are investigated. The model is reduced to a fourth-order boundary value problem on a graph with rigid joint conditions for the rods. A method is proposed for reducing the original problem to a multipoint boundary value problem on a selected route, allowing the system to be interpreted as an elastically supported rod. A justification for this method is provided, and a condition for the oscillatory nature of the spectrum is formulated.

On the best mean-square approximation of analytic functions in the Bergman space B2
Abstract
In a Bergman Hilbert space, we study the problem of estimating the best approximation of an analytic function in the unit disk by algebraic polynomials via averaging its modulus of smoothness. A general condition on the weight function is found that allows us to obtain an exact estimate. This condition is analogous to the Shabozov-Yusupov condition but additionally takes into account the specific features of the Bergman space. The resulting upper bounds are applied to calculating the diameters of certain classes of functions in the Kolmogorov, Gelfand, and Bernstein classes, as well as linear and projection diameters, in the Bergman space.

Solution of the initial-boundary value problem for the wave equation with a mixed derivative in the equation in the case of Dirichlet-Neumann boundary conditions
Abstract
We study the initial-boundary value problem for a second-order nonhomogeneous hyperbolic equation in a plane half-strip with constant coefficients, containing a mixed derivative, and with zero and nonzero potentials. This equation is the equation for the transverse oscillations of a moving finite string. We consider the case of Dirichlet-Neumann boundary conditions: the left end is fixed, and the right end is free. It is assumed that the roots of the characteristic equation are simple and lie on the real axis on opposite sides of the origin. We seek a classical solution (or a solution almost everywhere, sometimes called a “strong solution”) to this problem. A spectral problem associated with the original initial-boundary value problem, generated by an ordinary differential operator-valued function (pencil) of second order, is investigated. The asymptotic behavior of the eigenvalues and resolvent is determined, the operator-valued function is linearized in the corresponding space of vector functions, and a theorem on the expansion of the first component of the vector function in root functions of the spectral problem is proved. A theorem on the uniqueness of the classical solution is formulated and proved, and a formula for the classical solution is derived in the form of a series of contour integrals. Then, using these formulas in the case of zero potential, theorems on finite formulas for the classical solution in special cases are proved, and based on these, a finite formula for the classical solution in the general case is obtained.

Spectral properties of the internal wave operator in nonclassical problems
Abstract
This study examines the small oscillations of an ideal stratified fluid within bounded domains. In classical formulations of these problems, the lateral boundaries of the container are typically assumed to align with the gravity vector g and the direction of density stratification. This research investigates non-classical cases where the container walls and the stratification direction form a specific angle. This geometric discrepancy results in a qualitative transformation of the internal wave spectrum. Analysis of a tilted rectangular vessel demonstrates that the angle between the domain boundary and the vector g significantly affects the spectral formation. Specifically, the spectrum of the small-oscillation operator is no longer purely discrete but includes regions of a continuous spectrum. Identifying the boundaries of the continuous spectrum is essential for the accurate resolution of non-homogeneous evolution problems. The tilt angle and the geometric parameters of the vessel determine both these boundaries and the transition points between the discrete and continuous spectra. The results indicate that the orientation of the cavity relative to the gravitational field is a primary factor determining the properties of internal waves in a bounded volume of stratified fluid.

Spectral decomposition and model representation of unitary operators in spaces with indefinite metric
Abstract
A unitary operator acting in the Krein space and possessing an invariant subspace that is maximal nonnegative and decomposes into a direct sum of a uniformly positive (i.e., equivalent to a Hilbert space with respect to the inner pseudoscalar product) and a finite-dimensional neutral subspace is considered. The existence of a spectral function with a finite number of spectral singularities and a difference expression for this operator transforming the infinite-in-both-sides sequence of momenta generated by this operator into a sequence representable as the difference of positive sequences of momenta is proven. In the special case of a cyclic unitary operator in a Pontryagin space, a function space is constructed in which the operator under study is modelled as the operator of multiplication by an exponential with an imaginary argument.
