Prestige for all edge cases

$$\displaystyle\mathfrak{P}{\tiny n} = \begin{cases} \mathfrak{P}{\tiny (n-1)} \times min(\sum \Delta K, c) \text{ if } \sum \Delta K \ge 1 \\ \\ \mathfrak{P}{\tiny(n-1)} \times max(\sum \Delta K, p{\tiny \ominus}) \text{ if } \sum \Delta K < 1\end{cases}$$

Where:

• $\mathfrak {P}_{n}$ is the Prestige of a community in the given period.

• $\mathfrak {P}_{(n-1)}$ is the Prestige of a community in the previous period.

• c: constraint factor, just like in the PS framework, c controls the slope in $\mathfrak{P}$’s rate of change. It’s initially fixed at to 1.4 (40% growth), later customizable by the Hub itself.

• $p_{\tiny \ominus}$ is the penalty factor for Hubs inactive in a specific period. Same as in Participation Score.

• $\sum \Delta K$ is the sum of the rates of change of each individual parameter, between the current and the previous intervals.
