      Fractional Difference, Differential Equations, and Inclusions: Analysis and Stability is devoted to the existence and stability (Ulam-Hyers-Rassias stability and asymptotic stability) of solutions for several classes of functional fractional difference equations and inclusions. Covered equations include delay effects of finite, infinite, or state-dependent nature, and tools used to establish the existence results for the proposed problems include fixed point theorems, densifiability techniques, monotone iterative technique, notions of Ulam stability, attractivity and the measure of non-compactness, as well as the measure of weak noncompactness. The tools of fractional calculus are found to be of great utility in improving the mathematical modeling of many natural phenomena and processes occurring in the areas of engineering, social, natural, and biomedical sciences. All abstract results in the book are illustrated by examples in applied mathematics, engineering, biomedical, and other applied sciences.

      Synthetic Data and Generative AI covers the foundations of machine learning with modern approaches to solving complex problems and the systematic generation and use of synthetic data. Emphasis is on scalability, automation, testing, optimizing, and interpretability (explainable AI). For instance, regression techniques – including logistic and Lasso – are presented as a single method without using advanced linear algebra. Confidence regions and prediction intervals are built using parametric bootstrap without statistical models or probability distributions. Models (including generative models and mixtures) are mostly used to create rich synthetic data to test and benchmark various methods.
