Sufficient conditions for error bounds and linear regularity in Banach spaces

In this paper, we study error bounds for lower semicontinuous functions defined on Banach space and linear regularity for finitely many closed subset in Banach spaces. By using Clarke＇s subd- ifferentials and Ekeland variational principle, we establish several sufficient conditions ensuring error bounds and linear regularity in Banach spaces.     

Symmetry-exploiting cuts for a class of mixed-0/1 second-order cone programs

We will analyze mixed-0/1 second-order cone programs where the continuous and binary variables are solely coupled via the conic constraints. We devise a cutting-plane framework based on an implicit Sherali–Adams reformulation. The resulting cuts are very effective as symmetric solutions are automatically cut off and each equivalence class of 0/1 solutions is visited at most once. Further, we present computational results showing the effectiveness of our method and briefly sketch an application in optimal pooling of securities.

Associative Cones and Integrable Systems

Abstract We identify ℝ⁷ as the pure imaginary part of octonions. Then the multiplication in octonions gives a natural almost complex structure for the unit sphere S⁶. It is known that a cone over a surface M in S⁶ is an associative submanifold of ℝ⁷ if and only if M is almost complex in S⁶. In this paper, we show that the Gauss-Codazzi equation for almost complex curves in S⁶ are the equation for primitive maps associated to the 6-symmetric space G₂=T², and use this to explain some of the known results. Moreover, the equation for S¹-symmetric almost complex curves in S⁶ is the periodic Toda lattice, and a discussion of periodic solutions is given.

On the invariant faces associated with a cone-preserving map

For an nonnegative matrix , an isomorphism is obtained between the lattice of initial subsets (of ) for and the lattice of -invariant faces of the nonnegative orthant . Motivated by this isomorphism, we generalize some of the known combinatorial spectral results on a nonnegative matrix that are given in terms of its classes to results for a cone-preserving map on a polyhedral cone, formulated in terms of its invariant faces. In particular, we obtain the following extension of the famous Rothblum index theorem for a nonnegative matrix: If leaves invariant a polyhedral cone , then for each distinguished eigenvalue of for , there is a chain of distinct -invariant join-irreducible faces of , each containing in its relative interior a generalized eigenvector of corresponding to (referred to as semi-distinguished -invariant faces associated with ), where is the maximal order of distinguished generalized eigenvectors of corresponding to , but there is no such chain with more than members. We introduce the important new concepts of semi-distinguished -invariant faces, and of spectral pairs of faces associated with a cone-preserving map, and obtain several properties of a cone-preserving map that mostly involve these two concepts, when the underlying cone is polyhedral, perfect, or strictly convex and/or smooth, or is the cone of all real polynomials of degree not exceeding that are nonnegative on a closed interval. Plentiful illustrative examples are provided. Some open problems are posed at the end.
