ON THE EXISTENCE OF SOLUTIONS TO A BI-PLANAR MONGE-AMPèRE EQUATION

In this article, we consider a fully nonlinear partial differential equation which can be expressed as a sum of two Monge-Ampère operators acting in different two-dimensional coordinate sections. This equation is elliptic, for example, in the class of convex functions.We show that the notion of Monge-Ampère measures and Aleksandrov generalized solutions extends to this equation, subject to a weaker notion of convexity which we call bi-planar convexity. While the equation is also elliptic in the class of bi-planar convex functions, the contrary is not necessarily true. This is a substantial difference compared to the classical Monge-Ampère equation where ellipticity and convexity coincide. We provide explicit counter-examples: classical solutions to the bi-planar equation that satisfy the ellipticity condition but are not generalized solutions in the sense introduced. We conclude that the concept of generalized solutions based on convexity arguments is not a natural setting for the bi-planar equation.     

ON GENERALIZED COMPLETE(p,q)-ELLIPTIC INTEGRALS

In this paper,we study the generalized complete(p,q)-elliptic integrals of the first and second kind as an application of generalized trigonometric functions with two parameters,and establish the monotonicity,generalized convexity and concavity of these functions.In particular,some Turán type inequalities are given.Finally,we also show some new series representations of these functions by applying Alzer and Richard's methods.     

A Unified Approach to Generalized Stirling Functions

Here presented is a unified approach to generalized Stirling functions by using generalized factorial functions, k-Gamma functions, generalized divided difference, and the unified expression of Stirling numbers defined in [16]. Previous well-known Stirling functions introduced by Butzer and Hauss [4], Butzer, Kilbas, and Trujilloet [6] and others are included as particular cases of our generalization. Some basic properties related to our general pattern such as their recursive relations, generating functions, and asymptotic properties are discussed,which extend the corresponding results about the Stirling numbers shown in [21] to the defined Stirling functions.

GENERALIZED WEAK FUNCTIONS

Invex sets and preinvex functions on Riemannian manifolds

The concept of a geodesic invex subset of a Riemannian manifold is introduced. Geodesic invex and preinvex functions on a geodesic invex set with respect to particular maps are defined. The relation between geodesic invexity and preinvexity of functions on manifolds is studied. Using proximal subdifferential, certain results concerning extremum points of a non smooth geodesic preinvex function on a geodesic invex set are obtained. The main value inequality and the mean value theorem in invexity analysis are extended to Cartan-Hadamard manifolds.     

Second-order invex functions in nonlinear programming

We introduce a notion of a second-order invex function. A Fréchet differentiable invex function without any further assumptions is second-order invex. It is shown that the inverse claim does not hold. A Fréchet differentiable function is second-order invex if and only if each second-order stationary point is a global minimizer. Two complete characterizations of these functions are derived. It is proved that a quasiconvex function is second-order invex if and only if it is second-order pseudoconvex. Further, we study the nonlinear programming problem with inequality constraints whose objective function is second-order invex. We introduce a notion of second-order type I objective and constraint functions. This class of problems strictly includes the type I invex ones. Then we extend a lot of sufficient optimality conditions with generalized convex functions to problems with second-order type I invex objective function and constraints. Additional optimality results, which concern type I and second-order type I invex data are obtained. An answer to the question when a kernel, which is not identically equal to zero, exists is given.     

Some characterizations of strongly preinvex functions

In this paper, a new class of generalized convex function is introduced, which is called the strongly α-preinvex function. We study some properties of strongly α-preinvex function. In particular, we establish the equivalence among the strongly α-preinvex functions, strongly α-invex functions and strongly αη-monotonicity under some suitable conditions. As special cases, one can obtain several new and previously known results for α-preinvex (invex) functions.

Optimality conditions for an isolated minimum of order two in C constrained optimization

In this paper we obtain first and second-order optimality conditions for an isolated minimum of order two for the problem with inequality constraints and a set constraint. First-order sufficient conditions are derived in terms of generalized convex functions. In the necessary conditions we suppose that the data are continuously differentiable. A notion of strongly KT invex inequality constrained problem is introduced. It is shown that each Kuhn-Tucker point is an isolated global minimizer of order two if and only if the problem is strongly KT invex. The article could be considered as a continuation of [I. Ginchev, V.I. Ivanov, Second-order optimality conditions for problems with C¹ data, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 340 (2008) 646-657].
