An Efficient and Sparse Kernelized Grey RVFL Network for Energy Forecasting
Reliable energy forecasting is essential for the planning and dispatch of power and fuel systems; however, energy series are often short and exhibit pronounced nonlinearity. To tackle this small sample setting, we propose a gray random vector functional link (GRVFL) framework and further derive a kernelized variant (KGRVFL). In GRVFL, an RVFL network is integrated into gray system modeling, and the parameters are learned via sparsity-regularized regression, enabling stable and reproducible training without backpropagation or evolutionary optimization. Hyperparameters are tuned using Bayesian optimization driven by a Top-k mean absolute percentage error (Top-k MAPE) criterion to improve robustness. To further promote compactness, we introduce a fractional ratio-type Fr- penalty and solve the resulting problem efficiently using a fractional coordinate descent (FCD) algorithm. The proposed methods are assessed on six real-world energy datasets using eight evaluation metrics. Comparisons with nine gray model baselines and six machine learning forecasters demonstrate that the sparse KGRVFL (SKGRVFL) achieves higher predictive accuracy and improved training stability under small sample conditions.Open AccessAn Efficient and Sparse Kernelized Grey RVFL Network for Energy Forecasting

Borel–Cantelli Lemma for Capacities
In this paper, we investigate the second Borel–Cantelli lemma for capacity without the assumption of independence for events. We obtain a sufficient condition under which the second Borel–Cantelli lemma for capacity holds. Our results are natural extensions of the classical Borel–Cantelli lemma. However, the proof is different from the existing literature.

Mild solutions to time-fractional stochastic semi-linear wave equations
Physical models that simulate viscoelastic phenomena with random effects often use stochastic wave equations, but to simulate viscoelastic phenomena depends on past random effects, stochastic wave equation with time-fractional derivative is the best choice. In this paper, we introduce a class of stochastic semi-linear wave equations with time-fractional derivatives, and study the existence, uniqueness, and the existence of continuous modification of mild solutions to this time-fractional stochastic semi-linear wave equation by establishing a prior estimation.

Existence of optimal controls for stochastic partial differential equations with fully local monotone coefficients
This paper deals with a stochastic optimal feedback control problem for the controlled stochastic partial differential equations. More precisely, we establish the existence of stochastic optimal feedback control for the controlled stochastic partial differential equations with fully monotone coefficients by a minimizing sequence for the control problem. Using the Faedo-Galerkin approximations, the uniform estimates and the tightness in some appropriate space for the Faedo-Galerkin approximating solution can be obtain to prove the well-posedness of the controlled stochastic partial differential equations with fully monotone coefficients. The results obtained in the present paper may be applied to various types of controlled stochastic partial differential equations, such as the controlled stochastic convection diffusion equation.

Malliavin derivative of Teugels martingales and mean-field type stochastic maximum principle
We study the mean-field type stochastic control problem where the dynamics is governed by a general L\’{e}vy process with moments of all orders. For this, we introduce the power jump processes and the related Teugels martingales and give the Malliavin derivative with respect to Teugels martingales. We derive necessary and sufficient conditions for optimality of our control problem in the form of a mean-field stochastic maximum principle.

From Transience to Recurrence for Cox–Ingersoll–Ross Model When b < 0
We consider the Cox–Ingersoll–Ross (CIR) model in time-dependent domains, that is, the CIR process in time-dependent domains reflected at the time-dependent boundary. This is a very meaningful question, as the CIR model is commonly used to describe interest rate models, and interest rates are often artificially set within a time-dependent domain by policy makers. We consider the most fundamental question of recurrence versus transience for normally reflected CIR process with time-dependent domains, and we examine some precise conditions for recurrence versus transience in terms of the growth rates of the boundary. The drift terms and the diffusion terms of the CIR processes in time-dependent domains are carefully provided. In the transience case, we also investigate the last passage time, while in the case of recurrence, we also consider the positive recurrence of the CIR processes in time-dependent domains.

Nash Equilibrium of Stochastic Partial Differential Game with Partial Information via Malliavin Calculus
In this article, we consider the Nash equilibrium of stochastic differential game where the state process is governed by a controlled stochastic partial differential equation and the information available to the controllers is possibly less than the general information. All the system coefficients and the objective performance functionals are assumed to be random. We find an explicit strong solution of the linear stochastic partial differential equation with a generalized probabilistic representation for this solution with the benefit of Kunita’s stochastic flow theory. We use Malliavin calculus to derive a stochastic maximum principle for the optimal control and obtain the Nash equilibrium of this type of stochastic differential game problem.
