Neutrosophic parametric study of piecewise quadratic fuzzy multi-objective dynamic programming problems

The goal of this research is to investigate fuzzy multiobjective dynamic programming issues with fuzzy parameters in the objective functions and single valued trapezoidal neutrosophic numbers in the left hand side of the constraints. Piecewise quadratic fuzzy numbers characterize these fuzzy parameters. In addition, applying the score function of the neutrosophic numbers to convert the constraints parameters into its crisp .  Some basic notions in the problem under the pareto optimal solution concept is redefined and analyzed to study the stability of the problem. Furthermore, a technique is presented for obtaining a subset of the parametric space that has the same pareto optimal solution. For a better understanding and comprehension of the suggested concept, a numerical example is provided.

Enhancing neutrosophic fuzzy goal programming approach for solving multi-objective probabilistic linear programming problems

This article considers a stochastic multi-objective linear programming problem in a neutrosophic framework. The right-hand sides of the constraints are random variables associated with their means and variances, and the single-valued trapezoidal neutrosophic numbers are included in the coefficients of the objective functions to investigate the problem. The problem is successfully converted into the related deterministic programming model based on the formulation of the scoring function and several distributions, such as the Uniform, Exponential, and Gama distributions. Applying fuzzy goal programming, the deterministic problem is solved. An example is then solved to demonstrate the solution methodology.

The Mayan Transform: A Novel Integral Transform of Complex Power Parameters and Applications to Neutrosophic Functions

In this paper, a new type of integral transform with complex power parameters called the "Mayan transform" has been introduced. The definitions of the integral transform and its inverse are given in the classical case and the corresponding neutrosophic case. The classical analytical properties of the Mayan integral transforms are proven; the application of it to some essential functions and neutrosophic functions is introduced and proven. Also, its application to the  neutrosophic derivatives (first, second, and third) then the generalization of the application on the Mayan integral transform on the neutrosophic derivatives are given. The worthiness of the introduced integral transform on the actual application is also proven by applying the integral transform in solving two problems: the response of an Undamped forced mechanical oscillator and the response of an undamped forced electrical oscillator.

Fostering Economic Growth and Global Trade through Digitalized International Transport Corridors: Examining the Role of the eTIR Convention in the Proposed China-Kyrgyzstan-Uzbekistan Railways for Uzbekistan's Development

This study investigates the intricate dynamics of fostering economic growth and global trade through digitalized international transport corridors (ITCs), focusing on the proposed China-Kyrgyzstan-Uzbekistan (CKU) railway project within the framework of the eTIR Convention. Employing a comprehensive mixed-methods approach, integrating quantitative data from official sources, the research delves into the transformative potential of the CKU railway in linking Central Asia to China and Europe, thereby amplifying Uzbekistan's economic growth and global trade. Despite the project's potential to bolster trade competitiveness, stimulate regional integration, and foster economic diversification, the analysis uncovers challenges such as geopolitical tensions, environmental impacts, and financial sustainability, which could impede seamless implementation and operation. Leveraging the ARDL (2,1) model, the study reveals a direct dependency between the GDP growth rate and income from China to Uzbekistan, suggesting a substantial linear relationship. However, caution is advised in drawing definitive policy or economic implications, as further nuanced analysis and contextual understanding are imperative. The paper concludes by offering nuanced policy recommendations to enhance the governance and management of ITCs in Uzbekistan, emphasizing the necessity for a holistic and adaptive approach to navigate the complexities of such transformative projects, especially within the digitalized landscape and the context of the eTIR Convention.

Voluntary Disclosure-Profitability Nexus: The Moderating Effect of Audit Quality

The study aims to explore the moderating effect of audit quality on the association between voluntary disclosure and profitability. The study sample consists of (34) industrial companies listed on the "Amman Stock Exchange (ASE)" during the period (2017-2021). To achieve the objectives of the study, the content analysis method has been used to measure the impact of voluntary disclosure by reviewing 32 items of voluntary disclosure. Several statistical methods that fit the objectives of the study are used as well. The results of the study show that there is a positive association between the voluntary disclosure level and the profitability of the company, and that the moderating variable of audit quality negatively affects the relationship between voluntary disclosure and the profitability of the company. Considering the aforesaid results, the study recommends making voluntary disclosure by the industrial companies listed on the "ASE" due to its role in enhancing the profitability of companies.
