  • The author order is correct and confirmed by all authors.
  • The corresponding author is clearly identified.
  • For each author, a valid email address is provided.
  • For each author, an ORCID iD is provided.

Abstract

Please provide an abstract of 150 to 250 words. The abstract should be self-contained and should not contain any undefined abbreviations or unspecified references.

Keywords

Please provide 3 to 5 keywords which can be used for indexing purposes.

Classification code

An appropriate number of MSC codes should be provided. The Mathematics Subject Classification (MSC) is used to categorize items covered by the two reviewing databases, Mathematical Reviews and Zentralblatt MATH.
