Banach空间非线性脉冲Fredholm型积分方程的耦合极值拟解

In recent years, the research in integral equations in Banach spaces has achieved many results (refer to ［1］, ［2］, ［3］ etc.). It is well known that, generally, one must first establish the comparison theorem before applying the method of (coupled) lower and upper (quasi)solutions to investigate the (quasi)solutions of integral equations. This can be easily done for Volterra integral equations, but seems impossible for the cases of Fredholm type. Though ［3］ avoided the establishment of…

Stationary conditions for mathematical programs with vanishing constraints using weak constraint qualifications

We consider a class of optimization problems that is called a mathematical program with vanishing constraints (MPVC for short). This class has some similarities to mathematical programs with equilibrium constraints (MPECs for short), and typically violates standard constraint qualifications, hence the well-known Karush-Kuhn-Tucker conditions do not provide necessary optimality criteria. In order to obtain reasonable first order conditions under very weak assumptions, we introduce several MPVC-tailored constraint qualifications, discuss their relation, and prove an optimality condition which may be viewed as the counterpart of what is called M-stationarity in the MPEC-field.     

On the choice of parameters for the weighting method in vector optimization

We present a geometrical interpretation of the weighting method for constrained (finite dimensional) vector optimization. This approach is based on rigid movements which separate the image set from the negative of the ordering cone. We study conditions on the existence of such translations in terms of the boundedness of the scalar problems produced by the weighting method. Finally, using recession cones, we obtain the main result of our work: a sufficient condition under which weighting vectors yield solvable scalar problems.

Closed graph and open mapping theorems for normed cones

A quasi-normed cone is a pair (X, p) such that X is a (not necessarily cancellative) cone and q is a quasi-norm on X. The aim of this paper is to prove a closed graph and an open mapping type theorem for quasi-normed cones. This is done with the help of appropriate notions of completeness, continuity and openness that arise in a natural way from the setting of bitopological spaces.     

Robust supergain beamforming for circular array via second-order cone programming

The phenomenon of supergain for a circular array and its robust beamforming are presented. The coplanar superdirective array gain of the circular array, although it is not so extreme as an endfire line array, outperforms a lot over that of a conventional delay-and-sum beamformer in isotropic noise fields when the inter-element spacings are much smaller than one-half wavelength. However, optimum beamforming algorithms can be extremely sensitive to slight errors in array characteristics. The performance are known to degrade significantly if some of underlying assumptions on the sensor array is violated. Therefore, white noise gain constraint is used to improve the robustness of the supergain beamformer against random errors. We show that the design of the weight vector of robust supergain beamformer can be reformulated as a form of second-order cone programming and resolved efficiently via the well-established interior point method. Results of computer simulation for a 24-element circular array confirm satisfactory performance of the approach proposed in this paper.     

Generalizing Mutational Equations for Uniqueness of Some Nonlocal 1st-Order Geometric Evolutions

The mutational equations of Aubin extend ordinary differential equations to metric spaces (with compact balls). In first-order geometric evolutions, however, the topological boundary need not be continuous in the sense of Painlevé–Kuratowski. So this paper suggests a generalization of Aubin’s mutational equations that extends classical notions of dynamical systems and functional analysis beyond the traditional border of vector spaces: Distribution-like solutions are introduced in a set just supplied with a countable family of (possibly non-symmetric) distance functions. Moreover their existence is proved by means of Euler approximations and a form of “weak” sequential compactness (although no continuous linear forms are available beyond topological vector spaces). This general framework is applied to a first-order geometric example, i.e. compact subsets of ℝ ^N evolving according to the nonlocal properties of both the current set and its proximal normal cones. Here neither regularity assumptions about the boundaries nor the inclusion principle are required. In particular, we specify sufficient conditions for the uniqueness of these solutions.      

Correlative Sparsity in Primal-Dual Interior-Point Methods for LP,SDP, and SOCP

Exploiting sparsity has been a key issue in solving large-scale optimization problems. The most time-consuming part of primal-dual interior-point methods for linear programs, second-order cone programs, and semidefinite programs is solving the Schur complement equation at each iteration, usually by the Cholesky factorization. The computational efficiency is greatly affected by the sparsity of the coefficient matrix of the equation which is determined by the sparsity of an optimization problem (linear program, semidefinite program or second-order cone program). We show if an optimization problem is correlatively sparse, then the coefficient matrix of the Schur complement equation inherits the sparsity, and a sparse Cholesky factorization applied to the matrix results in no fill-in.

Necessary and Sufficient Conditions for the Boundedness of the Riesz Potential in Local Morrey-type Spaces

The problem of the boundedness of the Riesz potential I _α , 0 < α < n, in local Morrey-type spaces is reduced to the boundedness of the Hardy operator in weighted L _p -spaces on the cone of non-negative non-increasing functions. This allows obtaining sufficient conditions for the boundedness in local Morrey-type spaces for all admissible values of the parameters. Moreover, for a certain range of the parameters, these sufficient conditions coincide with the necessary ones. V. Guliyev’s research was partially supported by the grant of the Azerbaijan-U. S.
