二次曲面和平面位置关系的判式

在解析几何中有二次曲线与直线位置关系的讨论、二次曲面与直线位置关系的讨论,而二次曲面与平面相关位置关系的探讨较少.本文给出二次曲面a11x2+a22y2+a33z2+2a12xy+2a13xz+2a23yz+2a14x+2a24y+2a34z+a44=0(1)和平面Ax+By+Cz+D=0(2)的相对位置的判别式Δ=a11a12a13a14Aa21a22a23a24Ba31a32a33a34Ca41a42a43a44DA B C D0(aij=aji).(3)并证明了:若Δ>0,则二次曲面(1)与平面(2)相交;若Δ=0,则(1)和(2)相切;若Δ<0,则(1)和(2)相离.     

Partially isometric dilations of noncommuting -tuples of operators

Given a row contraction of operators on a Hilbert space and a family of projections on the space that stabilizes the operators, we show there is a unique minimal joint dilation to a row contraction of partial isometries that satisfy natural relations. For a fixed row contraction the set of all dilations forms a partially ordered set with a largest and smallest element. A key technical device in our analysis is a connection with directed graphs. We use a Wold decomposition for partial isometries to describe the models for these dilations, and we discuss how the basic properties of a dilation depend on the row contraction.

     

A Barrier Function Method for the Nonconvex Quadratic Programming Problem with Box Constraints

In this paper a barrier function method is proposed for approximating a solution of the nonconvex quadratic programming problem with box constraints. The method attempts to produce a solution of good quality by following a path as the barrier parameter decreases from a sufficiently large positive number. For a given value of the barrier parameter, the method searches for a minimum point of the barrier function in a descent direction, which has a desired property that the box constraints are always satisfied automatically if the step length is a number between zero and one. When all the diagonal entries of the objective function are negative, the method converges to at least a local minimum point of the problem if it yields a local minimum point of the barrier function for a sequence of decreasing values of the barrier parameter with zero limit. Numerical results show that the method always generates a global or near global minimum point as the barrier parameter decreases at a sufficiently slow pace.     

Staircase Parameterization in Dynamical Selection

This paper deals with a variant of a dynamical selection scheme introduced by Attouch and Cominetti for ill-posed convex minimization which combines approximation with the steepest descent method by mean of a suitable parameterization of the approximation parameter as a function of the time. This variant applies to a general inclusion with a maximal monotone operator by mean of a staircase parameterization. A discrete analogue is also considered. Applications to selecting a particular zero of a maximal monotone operator or a particular fixed point of a nonexpansive mapping via regularization techniques are presented. Finally, the alternative use of well-posedness by perturbations is discussed.     

New parameters of subsets in polynomial association schemes

We define new parameters, a zero interval and a dual zero interval, of subsets in P- or Q-polynomial association schemes. A zero interval of a subset in a P-polynomial association scheme is a successive interval index for which the inner distribution vanishes, and a dual zero interval of a subset in a Q-polynomial association scheme is a successive interval index for which the dual inner distribution vanishes. We derive bounds of the lengths of a zero interval and a dual zero interval using the degree and dual degree respectively, and show that a subset in a P-polynomial association scheme (resp. a Q-polynomial association scheme) having a large length of a zero interval (resp. a dual zero interval) induces a completely regular code (resp. a Q-polynomial association scheme). Moreover, we consider the spherical analogue of a dual zero interval.     

Spectrum of a homogeneous graph

We describe the spectrum of the Laplacian for a homogeneous graph acted on by a discrete group. This follows from a more general result which describes the spectrum of a convolution operator on a homogeneous space of a locally compact group. We also prove a version of Harnack inequality for a Schrödinger operator on an invariant homogeneous graph.     

On fractional powers of a pair of matrices and a plate-beam problem

In this paper we consider the transversal deflections of a dynamically-coupled Von Kármán system consisting of a plate which has a beam attached to its one edge. The problem is considered in the form of a non-linear evolution problem in a product space. We show the existence of a unique local solution by following a fractional powers approach to first construct a “weak” solution in a larger space. Regularity properties for this solution yield a unique local strong solution for the original boundary-value problem. This approach entails the introduction of fractional powers of a pair of matrices.     

A conjecture on bipartite graphical regular representations

In this paper we are concerned with the classification of the finite groups admitting a bipartite DRR and a bipartite GRR.First, we find a natural obstruction that prevents a finite group from admitting a bipartite GRR. Then we give a complete classification of the finite groups satisfying this natural obstruction and hence not admitting a bipartite GRR. Based on these results and on some extensive computer computations, we state a conjecture aiming to give a complete classification of the finite groups admitting a bipartite GRR.Next, we prove the existence of bipartite DRRs for most of the finite groups not admitting a bipartite GRR found in this paper. Actually, we prove a much stronger result: we give an asymptotic enumeration of the bipartite DRRs over these groups. Again, based on these results and on some extensive computer computations, we state a conjecture aiming to give a complete classification of the finite groups admitting a bipartite DRR.     

Inventory replenishment model: lot sizing versus just-in-time delivery

Motivated by a practical industrial problem where a manufacturer stipulates a minimum order from each buyer but where a local dealer promises the buyer a just-in-time delivery with a slightly higher unit cost, this paper uses a dynamic lot-sizing model with a stepwise cargo cost function and a minimum order amount constraint to help the buyer select the supplier with minimum total cost.     

Existence of a solution for two phase flow in porous media: The case that the porosity depends on the pressure

In this paper we prove the existence of a solution of a coupled system involving a two phase incompressible flow in the ground and the mechanical deformation of the porous medium where the porosity is a function of the global pressure. The model is strongly coupled and involves a nonlinear degenerate parabolic equation. In order to show the existence of a weak solution, we consider a sequence of related uniformly parabolic problems and apply the Schauder fixed point theorem to show that they possess a classical solution. We then prove the relative compactness of sequences of solutions by means of the Fréchet-Kolmogorov theorem; this yields the convergence of a subsequence to a weak solution of the parabolic system.     

Construction of a CPA contraction metric for periodic orbits using semidefinite optimization

A Riemannian metric with a local contraction property can be used to prove existence and uniqueness of a periodic orbit and determine a subset of its basin of attraction. While the existence of such a contraction metric is equivalent to the existence of an exponentially stable periodic orbit, the explicit construction of the metric is a difficult problem.In this paper, the construction of such a contraction metric is achieved by formulating it as an equivalent problem, namely a feasibility problem in semidefinite optimization. The contraction metric, a matrix-valued function, is constructed as a continuous piecewise affine (CPA) function, which is affine on each simplex of a triangulation of the phase space. The contraction conditions are formulated as conditions on the values at the vertices.The paper states a semidefinite optimization problem. We prove on the one hand that a feasible solution of the optimization problem determines a CPA contraction metric and on the other hand that the optimization problem is always feasible if the system has an exponentially stable periodic orbit and the triangulation is fine enough. An objective function can be used to obtain a bound on the largest Floquet exponent of the periodic orbit.     

覆盖数不超过3的图上渡河问题

1000多年前,英国著名学者Alcuin曾提出一个古老的渡河问题,即狼、羊和卷心菜的渡河问题。2006年,Prisner把该问题推广到任意的冲突图上,考虑了一类情况更一般的渡河运输问题。所谓冲突图是指一个图G=(V,E),这里V代表某些物品的集合,V中的两个点有边连结当且仅当这两个点是冲突的,即在无人监管的情况下不允许留在一起的点。图G=(V,E)的一个可行运输方案是指在保证不发生任何冲突的前提下,把V的点所代表的物品全部摆渡到河对岸的一个运输方案。图G的Alcuin数定义为它存在可行运输方案时所需船的最小容量。本文讨论了覆盖数不超过3的连通图的Alcuin数,给出了该类图Alcuin数的完全刻画。     

The Varieties of Tangent Lines to Hypersurfaces in Projective Spaces

For a hypersurface in a projective space, we consider the set of pairs of a point and a line in the projective space such that the line intersects the hypersurface at the point with a fixed multiplicity. We prove that this set of pairs forms a smooth variety for a general hypersurface.     

Scalarization of Henig Proper Efficient Points in a Normed Space

In a general normed space equipped with the order induced by a closed convex cone with a base, using a family of continuous monotone Minkowski functionals and a family of continuous norms, we obtain scalar characterizations of Henig proper efficient points of a general set and a bounded set, respectively. Moreover, we give a scalar characterization of a superefficient point of a set in a normed space equipped with the order induced by a closed convex cone with a bounded base.     

Diagrams of divide links

Recently N. A'Campo suggested a construction of a link from a generic immersion of a curve into a 2-disk. It is tightly related to the singularity theory. In this paper, we give a simple procedure to draw a diagram of the link from a picture of the curve.

     

On arithmetic Macaulayfication of Noetherian rings

The Rees algebra is the homogeneous coordinate ring of a blowing-up. The present paper gives a necessary and sufficient condition for a Noetherian local ring to have a Cohen-Macaulay Rees algebra: A Noetherian local ring has a Cohen-Macaulay Rees algebra if and only if it is unmixed and all the formal fibers of it are Cohen-Macaulay. As a consequence of it, we characterize a homomorphic image of a Cohen-Macaulay local ring. For non-local rings, this paper gives only a sufficient condition. By using it, however, we obtain the affirmative answer to Sharp's conjecture. That is, a Noetherian ring having a dualizing complex is a homomorphic image of a finite-dimensional Gorenstein ring.

Mountain Pass Solutions for a Double-Well Energy

We establish the existence of a mountain pass solution for a variational integral involving a quasiconvex function with a double-well structure in the geometrically linear elasticity setting. We show that under small dead-load perturbations, the Neumann boundary value problem has at least three solutions, a global minimizer, a local minimizer and a mountain pass solution. We show that our variational integral satisfies a Weak Palais-Smale condition (WPS) hence the mountain pass lemma applies.     

Some iterative methods for finding fixed points and for solving constrained convex minimization problems

The present paper is divided into two parts. In the first part, we introduce implicit and explicit iterative schemes for finding the fixed point of a nonexpansive mapping defined on the closed convex subset of a real Hilbert space. We establish results on the strong convergence of the sequences generated by the proposed schemes to a fixed point of a nonexpansive mapping. Such a fixed point is also a solution of a variational inequality defined on the set of fixed points. In the second part, we propose implicit and explicit iterative schemes for finding the approximate minimizer of a constrained convex minimization problem and prove that the sequences generated by our schemes converge strongly to a solution of the constrained convex minimization problem. Such a solution is also a solution of a variational inequality defined over the set of fixed points of a nonexpansive mapping. The results of this paper extend and improve several results presented in the literature in the recent past.
