COVID-19 Quarantine Measures Efficiency Evaluation by Best Tube Interval Data Envelopment Analysis
Operations Research Forum. 2023. No. 4. Article 21.
S. Demin
All countries have responded with a wide range of measures to stop the propagation of coronavirus. We apply best tube interval data envelopment analysis, in order to evaluate efficiency of quarantine measures using imprecise data. Using the Oxford COVID-19 Government Response Tracker’s (OxCGRT) data and given method, we construct time series of efficiency assessment of government responses to COVID-19. In addition, we separate all examined countries into several groups with similar patterns of quarantine measures efficiency. As a result, we highlight China and Vietnam as a benchmark for all other countries, because efficiency of these countries is high for almost whole period of research.

Let G/B be a flag variety over ℂ, where G is a simple algebraic group with a simply laced Dynkin diagram, and B is a Borel subgroup. We say that the product of classes of Schubert divisors in the Chow ring is multiplicity free if it is possible to multiply it by a Schubert class ...

We give a proof of Mukai’s theorem on the existence of certain exceptional vector bundles on prime Fano threefolds. To our knowledge this is the first complete proof in the literature. The result is essential for Mukai’s biregular classification of prime Fano threefolds, and for the existence of semiorthogonal decompositions in their derived categories. Our ...

We prove that the Kuznetsov–Polishchuk exceptional collections on rational homogeneous spaces of the symplectic groups Sp(2n,C) are full and consist of vector bundles. To achieve this, we construct several classes of complexes, which we call generalized staircase complexes, symplectic staircase complexes and secondary staircase complexes — each of which may be of independent interest. ...

We prove that for every relatively prime pair of integers (d,r) with r>0, there exists an exceptional pair (O,V) on any del Pezzo surface of degree 4, such that V is a bundle of rank r and degree d. As an application, we prove that every Feigin-Odesskii Poisson bracket on a projective space can be ...

We continue the study of automorphic functions associated with a curve C over the ring k[ε]/(ε²), where k is a finite field, begun in arXiv:2303.16259. Namely, we study an example of theta-lifting in this framework and show that it can be understood in terms of the orbit decomposition of the space of automorphic functions S(SL₂(F)\SL₂(A_C)) ...

A radio-physical system, namely, a two-mode van der Pol generator, is considered. It is shown that this system demonstrates two types of chaos: with one and two zero Lyapunov exponents. The regions of the second type of chaos are surrounded by bifurcation lines of invariant tori doubling. Quasi-periodic structures of various shapes are embedded within ...

The cardinality-constrained Markowitz problem is NP-hard and traditionally solved with commercial MIQP solvers. Following the 2022 export restrictions that rendered both commercial MIQP software and cloud quantum platforms (IBM Quantum, D-Wave Leap) inaccessible from the Russian Federation, practitioners require open-source alternatives. This paper systematically compares three solver families for the discrete mean-variance problem: two open-source ...

Pyramidal solitons (solitons with more than two inflection points) of the generalized Korteweg–de Vries (KdV) equation are investigated. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of such structures are presented. Within the framework of the generalized Gardner equation — the simplest model that admits pyramidal solitons as solutions — it is shown that these solutions ...
