The realisation of approximation theory is critical in analysis. Our papers primary benefit is that it is built on Egoroffs principle, which we investigate in our theorems. We presented the findings of research on approximation using Remez algorithm. This algorithm is an effective tool for analysing the approximations used in our research.</p> <p><strong>Keywords:</strong> Best approximation; Modulus of smoothness; Jackson type estimates.</p> <p><strong>2010 Mathematics Subject Classification.</strong> 41A10; 41A25</p> Malik Saad Al-Muhja Copyright (c) 2026 Jordan Journal of Mathematics and Statistics https://jjms.yu.edu.jo/index.php/jjms/article/view/1798 Sun, 12 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0300 Approximate Solution of Variable-Order Fractional Optimal Control Problems https://jjms.yu.edu.jo/index.php/jjms/article/view/1799 <p>This paper introduces a robust and highly accurate numerical scheme for solving a general class of variable-order fractional optimal control (VOFOC) problems based on the Caputo definition. The proposed method leverages a shifted Legendre spectral collocation (SLSC) technique, which effectively combines the superior approximation properties of global polynomials with the precision of Gaussian quadrature. The core of our approach lies in the novel derivation of an operational matrix for the variable-order fractional derivative (VOFD) of shifted Legendre polynomials. This matrix allows for the exact representation of the VOFDof the state variable, thereby transforming the complex fractional dynamical system constraint into a computationally tractable system of algebraic equations. The state and control variables are approximated by finite expansions of shifted Legendre polynomials with unknown coefficients. The objective functional is discretized using the shifted Legendre-Gauss-Lobatto (SLGL) quadrature rule, which is exact for polynomials of sufficiently high degree. Consequently, the original continuous-time VOFOC problem is converted into a nonlinear programming (NLP) problem, which can be efficiently solved using standard optimization solvers. A rigorous convergence analysis is provided, establishing that under mild conditions, the sequence of approximate solutions generated by our method uniformly converges to the exact optimal solution of the original VOFOC problem. The efficacy, versatility, and superiority of the proposed framework are demonstrated through six comprehensive numerical examples, including a practical application to train motion control. Results show that our method achieves exponential convergence rates, outperforms existing techniques like the variational iteration method, wavelet methods, and other spectral schemes in terms of accuracy, and yields solutions very close to the exact ones even with a small number of basis functions. The method proves to be a powerful tool for handling the complexities inherent in variable-order fractional calculus, offering a blend of theoretical robustness and computational efficiency.</p> <p><strong>Keywords:</strong> Variable-order fractional derivatives; Variable-order fractional optimal control problems; Spectral-collocation method;<br>Nonlinear programming.</p> <p><strong>2010 Mathematics Subject Classification.</strong> 26A25; 26A35</p> Zahra Pirouzeh, Kamele Nassiri Pirbazari, Mohammad Hadi Noori Skandari Copyright (c) 2026 Jordan Journal of Mathematics and Statistics https://jjms.yu.edu.jo/index.php/jjms/article/view/1799 Sun, 12 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0300 Moments of kth Lower Record Values from Inverse-Rayleigh Distribution and Characterization https://jjms.yu.edu.jo/index.php/jjms/article/view/1800 <p>This paper focuses on the inverse Rayleigh distribution, a widely used model for lifetime data.

The order of the group G, denoted |G| is the number of elements in G. For any element g∈G, the order of g denoted o(g) is the smallest positive integer n ∈ N such that g<sup>n</sup> = e. A graph of a finite group is said to be a prime graph Γ(G) if two vertices p,q are primes that divide |G|, with the vertices p and q connected by an edge if and only if the product pq divides o(g), the order of a group element. In this research, we study the prime graph of finite groups by focusing on one of these finite groups, i.e. the dihedral group with n sides which has order 2n. Next, we define and study the prime graph generated from 2 prime graphs of dihedral group Γ(D<sub>m</sub>)∗Γ(D<sub>n</sub>) and obtain the form of the prime graph of dihedral group which is forms the graph of K<sub>n</sub>.</p> <p><strong>Keywords:</strong> Finite group, Dihedral group, Prime graph, Order of the group, Order of the group element.</p> <p><strong>2010 Mathematics Subject Classification.</strong> 26A25; 26A35</p> Kurnia Tandi Palembangan, Amir Kamal Amir, Andi Muhammad Anwar Copyright (c) 2026 Jordan Journal of Mathematics and Statistics https://jjms.yu.edu.jo/index.php/jjms/article/view/1809 Sun, 12 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0300 On the Burning Number of the Generalized Heawood Graphs https://jjms.yu.edu.jo/index.php/jjms/article/view/1810 <p>Graph burning is a discrete-time process that models the spread of contagion or information in a network. The burning number b(G) of a graph G is defined as the minimum number of discrete time steps required to ensure that all vertices are “burned”, assuming that in each step, a new vertex is ignited and the fire spreads to all adjacent vertices. Suppose n,k are two natural numbers where k ≥3 is odd and n≥k. The generalized Heawood graph, which is a cubic bipartite graph of girth 4 or 6, denoted as H(n,k) is the graph consisting of a 2n-cycle r<sub>0</sub>r<sub>1</sub>r<sub>2</sub>...r<sub>2n−1</sub>r<sub>0</sub> together with edges of the form r<sub>2i</sub>r<sub>2i+k</sub>,i = 0,1,2,...,n−1. Here the operations on the subscripts are reduced modulo 2n. In this paper, we propose ways to burn the generalized Heawood graphs and hence determine the burning number of all H(n,k) of girth 4 and that of H(2k,k) which is of girth 6.</p> <p><strong>Keywords:</strong> Burning number; generalized Heawood graphs.</p> <p><strong>2020 Mathematics Subject Classification.</strong> 68R10, 05C85, 91D30</p> Kai An Sim, Kok Bin Wong Copyright (c) 2026 Jordan Journal of Mathematics and Statistics https://jjms.yu.edu.jo/index.php/jjms/article/view/1810 Sun, 12 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0300 A New Regression Model for Multivariate Extremes Using the Peaks-Over-Threshold Method https://jjms.yu.edu.jo/index.php/jjms/article/view/1811 <p>This paper presents a new regression model tailored for analyzing multivariate extremes, particularly when both the response variable and the covariates exhibit extreme behavior. The methodology combines the Peaks-Over-Threshold (POT) approach with ARIMA-based preprocessing to ensure the stationarity of climatic time series data before extreme value modeling. A key innovation of our approach is the use of a Logistic-Normal prior for spectral density estimation, which provides a more flexible and expressive alternative to the classical Dirichlet priors typically used in Peaks-Over-Threshold (POT) modeling of multivariate extremes. This framework enables the construction of smooth regression manifolds that describe conditional quantiles of extreme responses given extreme covariates, offering improved interpretability and adaptability to complex dependence structures. The model is applied to temperature and precipitation data from Meknes, Morocco (1973–2024), revealing meaningful extremal dependence patterns. Validation is conducted through quantile regression manifolds and bootstrap-based uncertainty estimates, demonstrating the practical relevance and robustness of the proposed method in environmental applications.</p> <p><strong>Keywords:</strong> Spectral measure; Bivariate extreme value distribution; Joint distribution; Quantile regression; Peaks-Over-Threshold; ARIMA method.</p> <p><strong>2010 Mathematics Subject Classification.</strong> 26A25; 26A35</p> Amina El Bernoussi, Mohamed El Arrouchi Copyright (c) 2026 Jordan Journal of Mathematics and Statistics https://jjms.yu.edu.jo/index.php/jjms/article/view/1811 Sun, 12 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0300 Some New Inequalities on e-Convex Functions https://jjms.yu.edu.jo/index.php/jjms/article/view/1812 <p>In this paper, we investigate e-convex functions, presenting Jensen-type inequalities and integral bounds.

To this end, five main groups of couples are considered: susceptible couples, patient couples, those undergoing treatment only, those receiving treatment with surgery, and cured couples. Our primary contribution lies in the formulation of a fractional-order model that captures the dynamics of infertile couples and identifies asymptotically stable disease-free equilibrium points. The main objective is to develop a novel numerical approach based on the finite element method to solve a nonlinear system of fractional differential equations. This<br>method transforms the fractional system into a system of algebraic equations. Moreover, the proposed technique proves to be robust,<br>efficient, and particularly well-suited to modeling infertility.
