Abstract In a recent paper (Open Physics 2021;19:679–682), Khalil Salim Al-Ghafri investigated the soliton structures of the integrable Kundu–Mukherjee–Naskar (KMN) equation in optical fiber communication. Some exact solutions such as the W-shaped soliton solution, the bright soliton solutions (type-I and type-II) and dark soliton solution are derived using the ansatz approach. In this erratum article, we show that all these four solutions presented in Open Physics 2021;19:679–682 do not satisfy the original KMN equation; hence they are not the exact solutions of the integrable KMN equation.

The paper finds out the effect of green branding on consumer loyalty in the Indian Fast-Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) industry using a descriptive-analytical study. A structured questionnaire with 150 respondents was used to gather data in which aspects of consumer awareness, brand switching willingness to pay a premium, and consumer awareness regarding green initiatives were evaluated. Results demonstrate that 83.4 percent of consumers are somewhat ready to spend more in order to consume green products, and more than 63 percent of them have been crossing the brands on the basis of lack of sustainability. The social media and product packaging took the lead to become the most popular sources of green information. It makes a conclusion that green branding is really effective in strengthening consumer loyalty and provides tactical advantage to FMCG firms operating in India.

Juvenile delinquency, which refers to illegal or antisocial behavior committed by individuals typically under the age of eighteen, continues to pose a major challenge to societies across the globe.While several factors contribute to juvenile crime including poverty, family dysfunction, peer influence, and lack of positive role models education has consistently emerged as one of the most effective means of prevention.Education not only equips children and adolescents with academic knowledge but also shapes their moral and social development, instills discipline, and provides alternatives to deviant behavior.This paper examines the role of education as a preventive strategy against juvenile delinquency by exploring how schools can address root causes, promote resilience, and offer young people viable pathways for a constructive future.The abstract highlights the multifaceted benefits of education, such as building critical life skills, offering vocational training, and providing counseling services to at-risk youth.Schools are uniquely positioned to identify early warning signs of delinquency and intervene through supportive measures before negative behaviors escalate into criminal acts.The paper also underscores the importance of collaboration between teachers, parents, communities, and policymakers in ensuring that educational initiatives are comprehensive and inclusive.Research indicates that when schools work in partnership with families and communities, children are more likely to stay engaged in learning and develop positive peer relationships, which in turn lowers the likelihood of engaging in delinquent acts.This paper argues that to fully harness the preventive potential of education, it is essential to adopt an integrated approach that combines academic learning with moral education, social support, and community engagement.By strengthening the role of education, societies can address the underlying factors that contribute to juvenile delinquency and help young people build the skills, values, and opportunities necessary to lead responsible and law-abiding lives.This analysis ultimately affirms that education is not merely an academic process but a crucial social intervention for shaping future generations and preventing youth crime.

This research investigates the formulation and performance of a common conductive paint system utilizing ketonic aldehyde resin and cyclo olefins, targeting application across diverse polymer substrates. The study aims to address the challenge of achieving uniform electrical conductivity, strong adhesion, and consistent film formation on various plastics such as polypropylene (PP), acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), and polycarbonate (PC) and Nylone. Ketonic aldehyde resin, known for its excellent film-forming and binding characteristics, was combined with modified cyclo olefins to optimize the resin matrix for conductivity enhancement and substrate compatibility. Conductive pigments such as carbon black and graphite were dispersed into this resin system, and various paint formulations were developed and applied to multiple plastic panels. Key performance metrics—including surface resistivity, crosshatch adhesion, flexibility, and thermal stability—were evaluated. Results demonstrate that the ketonic aldehyde–cyclo olefin resin matrix can serve as a versatile platform for common conductive paints suitable for electrostatic applications across different polymers. This development has potential to streamline coating processes in automotive, electronics, and packaging industries by reducing the need for substrate-specific conductive coatings.

Unilateral sanctions, used by powerful states to compel others without the support of multilateral organizations like the UN, have become a key instrument of foreign policy in the last several decades. “The moral, political, or strategic justifications for these actions are often strong, but the question of whether they are permissible under international law is still hotly contested. By following the interplay between unilateral sanctions and other fundamental tenets of international law—such as state sovereignty, non-intervention, and the prohibition of force—this article delves into the murky waters of their legal standing. The author delves into the question of whether governments can take such measures independently of the UN Security Council and, if so, under what conditions these sanctions can be deemed legitimate”. The purpose of this article is to examine the rule of law and the effectiveness of unilateral sanctions in international relations by reviewing pertinent legal instruments, academic debates, and case studies.

Abstract Physical education plays a pivotal role in fostering not only general fitness and well-being among students but also in promoting specific sports activities that contribute to the holistic development of young individuals. This paper explores the role of physical education in promoting cricket among students, utilizing secondary data to analyze the effectiveness of various pedagogical strategies, institutional support mechanisms, and extracurricular initiatives. By examining existing literature, educational policies, and case studies, the study identifies key factors that enhance the popularity and participation rates in cricket within educational settings. The findings suggest that a structured physical education curriculum, combined with dedicated coaching, adequate facilities, and motivational programs, significantly increases student engagement in cricket. The paper concludes with recommendations for educators, policymakers, and stakeholders to effectively integrate cricket into physical education programs, thereby promoting physical activity, teamwork, and strategic thinking among students.

This study investigates the intricate relationships among CO2 emissions, income inequality, the Economic Complexity Index (ECI), foreign direct investment (FDI), the Human Development Index (HDI), and the economic growth across countries. Three distinct models are developed: the first examines their effects on economic growth, the second analyzes their impact on income inequality, and the third explores their influence on CO2 emissions. Advanced econometric methods, including Fully Modified Ordinary Least Squares (FMOLS) and Dynamic Ordinary Least Squares (DOLS), are employed to ensure robust and reliable results. The findings indicate that income inequality impedes economic growth, whereas economic growth and greater economic complexity help reduce inequality. While FDI significantly boosts GDP growth, it also widens the income disparities and intensifies environmental degradation, raising questions about the sustainability and quality of foreign investments. In contrast, human development emerges as a vital driver of economic growth and a critical factor in reducing CO2 emissions, highlighting the value of investing in education, healthcare, and living standards to achieve sustainable development. These insights underscore the necessity for carefully designed policies that harmonize economic progress, social equity, and environmental sustainability.
