Limit Point, strong limit point and Dirichlet conditions for discrete Hamiltonian systems

This paper deals with discrete Hamiltonian systems with a singular endpoint. The limit point condition, the strong limit point condition and the Dirichlet condition are studied based on asymptotic behaviors or square summabilities in the maximal domains. The equivalence between the limit point and strong limit point conditions is established for a class of such systems; and for degenerated Hamiltonian system, the three conditions are shown to imply each other.

Spectral properties of singular discrete linear Hamiltonian systems

This paper is concerned with spectral properties of singular discrete linear Hamiltonian systems. It is shown that properties of the essential spectrum of each self-adjoint subspace extension (SSE) of the corresponding minimal subspace are independent of the values of the coefficients of the system on any finite subinterval. The analyticity of the Weyl function is studied by employing the Schwarz reflection principle for the system in the limit point case. Based on the above work, several sufficient conditions are obtained for each SSE to have no essential spectrum points in an interval of the real line in the strong limit point case, and then a sufficient condition for the essential spectrum to be bounded from below (above) and a sufficient condition for the pure discrete spectrum are presented, respectively. As a direct consequence, the related spectral properties of singular higher order symmetric vector difference expressions are given.     

Defect indices and definiteness conditions for a class of discrete linear Hamiltonian systems

This paper is concerned with a class of discrete linear Hamiltonian systems in finite or infinite intervals. A definiteness condition and its equivalent statements are discussed and three sufficient conditions for the definiteness condition are given. A precise relationship between the defect index of the minimal subspace generated by the system and the number of linearly independent square summable solutions of the system is established. In particular, they are equal if and only if the definiteness condition is satisfied. Finally, two criteria for the limit point case and one criterion for the limit circle case are obtained.     

Generalized stationary points and an interior-point method for mathematical programs with equilibrium constraints

Generalized stationary points of the mathematical program with equilibrium constraints (MPEC) are studied to better describe the limit points produced by interior point methods for MPEC. A primal-dual interior-point method is then proposed, which solves a sequence of relaxed barrier problems derived from MPEC. Global convergence results are deduced under fairly general conditions other than strict complementarity or the linear independence constraint qualification for MPEC (MPEC-LICQ). It is shown that every limit point of the generated sequence is a strong stationary point of MPEC if the penalty parameter of the merit function is bounded. Otherwise, a point with certain stationarity can be obtained. Preliminary numerical results are reported, which include a case analyzed by Leyffer for which the penalty interior-point algorithm failed to find a stationary point.Mathematics Subject Classification (1991):90C30, 90C33, 90C55, 49M37, 65K10     

Classification of Non-self-adjoint Singular Sturm-Liouville Difference Equations

This paper is concerned with non-self-adjoint singular Sturm-Liouville difference equations. By introducing a new spectral parameter, we rewrite the Sturm-Liouville difference equation as a formally self-adjoint Hamiltonian difference system. Applying the theory of the limit point and limit circle cases for this difference system, we classify the considered equation into cases I, II, and III. Two examples are illustrated to show the dependence of cases II and III on the corresponding half planes. Furthermore, the exact dependence of cases II and III on the corresponding half planes is obtained.     

On a Weyl-Titchmarsh theory for discrete symplectic systems on a half line

Recently, Bohner and Sun [9] introduced basic elements of a Weyl-Titchmarsh theory into the study of discrete symplectic systems. We extend this development through the introduction of Weyl-Titchmarsh functions together with a preliminary study of their properties. A limit point criterion is described and characterized. Green’s function for the half-line is introduced as a limit of such functions in the regular case and half-line solutions obtained are seen to satisfy λ-dependent boundary conditions at infinity.

Weyl–Titchmarsh theory for discrete symplectic systems with general linear dependence on spectral parameter

In this paper we develop the Weyl–Titchmarsh theory for discrete symplectic systems with general linear dependence on the spectral parameter. We generalize and complete several recent results concerning these systems, which have the spectral parameter only in the second equation. Our new theory includes characterizations of the Weyl discs and Weyl circles, their limiting behaviour, properties of square summable solutions including the analysis of the exact number of linearly independent square summable solutions and limit point/circle criteria. Some illustrative examples are also provided.     

Approximate Augmented Lagrangian Functions and Nonlinear Semidefinite Programs

In this paper, an approximate augmented Lagrangian function for nonlinear semidefinite programs is introduced. Some basic properties of the approximate augmented Lagrange function such as monotonicity and convexity are discussed. Necessary and sufficient conditions for approximate strong duality results are derived. Conditions for an approximate exact penalty representation in the framework of augmented Lagrangian are given. Under certain conditions, it is shown that any limit point of a sequence of stationary points of approximate augmented Lagrangian problems is a KKT point of the original semidefinite program and that a sequence of optimal solutions to augmented Lagrangian problems converges to a solution of the original semidefinite program.

Eigenvalue problems for a non‐self‐adjoint Bessel‐type operators in limit‐point case

It is shown in the Weyl limit‐point case that system of root functions of the non‐self‐adjoint Bessel operator and its perturbation Sturm–Liouville operator form a complete system in the Hilbert space. Furthermore, asymptotic behavior of the eigenvalues of the non‐self‐adjoint Bessel operators is investigated, and it is proved that system of root functions form a Bari basis in the same Hilbert space.

Derived random measures

A derived random measure is constructed by integration of a random process with respect to a random measure independent of that process. Basic distributional properties, a continuity theorem, sample path properties, a strong law of large numbers, and a central limit theorem for derived random measures are established. Applications are given to compounding and thinning of point processes and the measure of a random set.     

The Center Conditions and Hopf Cyclicity for a 3D Lotka-Volterra System

The main objective of this paper is not only to find necessary and The main objective of this paper is not only to find necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a center on a local center manifold for a three dimensional Lotka-Volterra system, but also to determine the maximum number of limit cycles that can bifurcate from the positive equilibrium as a fine focus. Firstly, the singular point quantities are computed and simplified to obtain necessary conditions for local integrability, and Darboux method is applied to show the sufficiency. Then, the Hopf bifurcation on the center manifold is investigated, from this, the conclusion of at most five small limit cycles generated in the vicinity of the equilibrium is obtained. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case with five possible limit cycles for the cyclicity of 3D Lotka-Volterra systems.

A strongly convergent hybrid proximal method in Banach spaces

This paper is devoted to the study of strong convergence in inexact proximal like methods for finding zeroes of maximal monotone operators in Banach spaces. Convergence properties of proximal point methods in Banach spaces can be summarized as follows: if the operator have zeroes then the sequence of iterates is bounded and all its weak accumulation points are solutions. Whether or not the whole sequence converges weakly to a solution and which is the relation of the weak limit with the initial iterate are key questions. We present a hybrid proximal Bregman projection method, allowing for inexact solutions of the proximal subproblems, that guarantees strong convergence of the sequence to the closest solution, in the sense of the Bregman distance, to the initial iterate.     

A note on asymptotic expansions for sums over a weakly dependent random field with application to the Poisson and Strauss processes

Previous results on Edgeworth expansions for sums over a random field are extended to the case where the strong mixing coefficient depends not only on the distance between two sets of random variables, but also on the size of the two sets. The results are applied to the Poisson and the Strauss point processes, giving rise also to local limit results.
