In this scenario, the rewarder incurs a cost to incentivize altruistic behavior. However, many individuals who are willing to cooperate are unwilling to bear the cost of incentives and thus become second-order free-riders. To address this issue, we propose a tax allocation mechanism that levies a specific tax from all participants in the public goods games to subsidize the rewarders. The introduction of a reputation system can significantly elevate the level of cooperation among individuals within the framework. To further enhance cooperation, we suggest implementing a memory-based reputation allocation mechanism. This mechanism distributes taxes and rewards to group members based on the magnitude of individual reputations of the cooperators and the rewarders. Through comprehensive numerical analyses, we demonstrate that the memory-based allocation of taxes and rewards typically fosters an increase in cooperation levels within the system and clarifies the origins of the rewards, thereby rendering the model more realistic compared to traditional reward systems.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":9764,"journal":{"name":"Chaos Solitons & Fractals","volume":"195 ","pages":"Article 116298"},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2025-03-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143684120","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Newton’s method, which is a traditional approach to solve the DNLSEs, faces significant challenges in solving these intricate nonlinear problems. Here, we propose the Newton conjugate gradient (NCG) method as an efficient alternative for solving the DNLSEs. By combining Newton iterations with conjugate gradient iterations, the NCG method achieves a comparable number of iterations to Newton’s method but is significantly faster overall and better suited at finding complex solutions. Using bulk solitons in a nonlinear photonic Chern insulator as an example, we demonstrate that the NCG method is particularly well-suited for solving DNLSEs that describe nonlinear topological systems.

Focus is on the mixed differential-difference equations proposed by Born and von Kármán in 1912 for cubic lattices with both central and non-central interactions, applied here to 2D lattices. The non-central interaction introduced by Born and von Kármán, classified as a shear interaction, corresponds to a frame-dependent (non-objective) angular interaction. A consistent connection between discrete and continuum elasticity can be achieved by incorporating the proper non-central (angular) interactions introduced by Gazis et al. in 1960. Inspired by Hrennikoff's truss scheme, we constructed an alternative lattice model, based on Gazis et al. formulation, that is augmented with additional objective internal angular interactions. The difference operators associated with both consistent lattices, i.e. Gazis et al. lattice and the new Hrennikoff inspired lattice, are shown to differ. The conditions of positive definiteness of the associated potential energy of each lattice, are discussed. The new lattice successfully bridges the gap between discrete and continuum elasticity, while being governed by the same mixed differential-difference equations proposed by Born and von Kármán. It can reproduce macroscopic auxetic behaviour, while preserving the positive definiteness of its discrete potential energy. This finding resolves the long-standing inconsistency of Born and von Kármán's equations, which, originally derived from flawed physical assumptions, can now be justified through correct mathematical reasoning.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":9764,"journal":{"name":"Chaos Solitons & Fractals","volume":"195 ","pages":"Article 116251"},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2025-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143666489","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Furthermore, we identify that specific combinations of interspecies and intraspecies interactions facilitate the emergence of the stable phonons and infinitesimal roton instabilities, which underpin the dynamically stable superfluid quantum droplet-like nature of the plane-wave and stripe-wave phases. In this context, stable phonons create quantum droplet-like structures in the absence of a trap.
