A sharp upper bound for the first eigenvalue of the Laplacian of compact hypersurfaces in rank-1 symmetric spaces

Let M be a closed hypersurface in a simply connected rank-1 symmetric space . In this paper, we give an upper bound for the first eigenvalue of the Laplacian of M in terms of the Ricci curvature of and the square of the length of the second fundamental form of the geodesic spheres with center at the center-of-mass of M.     

Using rank-1 lift-and-project closures to generate cuts for 0–1 MIPs, a computational investigation

Various techniques for building relaxations and generating valid inequalities for pure or mixed integer programming problems without special structure are reviewed and compared computationally. Besides classical techniques such as Gomory cuts, Mixed Integer Rounding cuts, lift-and-project and reformulation–linearization techniques, a new variant is also investigated: the use of the relaxation corresponding to the intersection of simple disjunction polyhedra (i.e. the so-called elementary closure of lift-and-project cuts). Systematic comparative computational results are reported on series of test problems including multidimensional knapsack problems (MKP) and MIPLIB test problems. From the results obtained, the relaxation based on the elementary closure of lift-and-project cuts appears to be one of the most promising.     

Nonnegative non-redundant tensor decomposition

Nonnegative tensor decomposition allows us to analyze data in their ‘native’ form and to present results in the form of the sum of rank-1 tensors that does not nullify any parts of the factors. In this paper, we propose the geometrical structure of a basis vector frame for sum-of-rank-1 type decomposition of real-valued nonnegative tensors. The decomposition we propose reinterprets the orthogonality property of the singularvectors of matrices as a geometric constraint on the rank-1 matrix bases which leads to a geometrically constrained singularvector frame. Relaxing the orthogonality requirement, we developed a set of structured-bases that can be utilized to decompose any tensor into a similar constrained sum-of-rank-1 decomposition. The proposed approach is essentially a reparametrization and gives us an upper bound of the rank for tensors. At first, we describe the general case of tensor decomposition and then extend it to its nonnegative form. At the end of this paper, we show numerical results which conform to the proposed tensor model and utilize it for nonnegative data decomposition.

Characteristic Conditions for the Generation of α-Times Resolvent Families on a Hilbert Space

In 2000,Shi and Feng gave the characteristic conditions for the generation of C0semigroups on a Hilbert space.In this paper,we will extend them to the generation of α-times resolvent operator families.Such characteristic conditions can be applied to show rank-1 perturbation theorem and relatively-bounded perturbation theorem for α-times resolvent operator families.     

Induced norms, states, and numerical ranges

It is shown that two induced norms are the same if and only if the corresponding norm numerical ranges or radii are the same, which in turn is equivalent to the vector states and mixed states arising from the norms being the same. The proofs depend on an auxiliary result of independent interest which concerns when two closed convex sets in a topological vector space are multiples of each other.

An efficient numerical algorithm for simulating a two-dimensional glow discharge

A numerical algorithm of the second approximation order with respect to the space variables for simulating a two-dimensional elevated pressure glow discharge in the framework of the drift-diffusion approximation is presented. A specific feature of this algorithm is the use of the Laplace resolving operator for the solution of the system of grid equations. This makes it possible to ensure the convergence of the solution in strong grid norms. Mathematical aspects of the statement of the differential-difference and finite difference problems (solvability, nonnegativity, approximation, stability, and convergence) are discussed, and bounds on the norms of the corresponding differential and difference operators that are required for constructing an optimal iterative process are obtained.

FINITE ELEMENT METHODS FOR SOBOLEV EQUATIONS

A new high-order time-stepping finite element method based upon the high-order numerical integration formula is formulated for Sobolev equations, whose computations consist of an iteration procedure coupled with a system of two elliptic equations. The optimal and superconvergence error estimates for this new method are derived both in space and in time. Also, a class of new error estimates of convergence and superconvergence for the time-continuous finite element method is demonstrated in which there are no time derivatives of the exact solution involved, such that these estimates can be bounded by the norms of the known data. Moreover, some useful a-posteriori error estimators are given on the basis of the superconvergence estimates.     

Piecewise parabolic method on local stencil for gasdynamic simulations

A numerical method based on piecewise parabolic difference approximations is proposed for solving hyperbolic systems of equations. The design of its numerical scheme is based on the conservation of Riemann invariants along the characteristic curves of a system of equations, which makes it possible to discard the four-point interpolation procedure used in the standard piecewise parabolic method (PPM) and to use the data from the previous time level in the reconstruction of the solution inside difference cells. As a result, discontinuous solutions can be accurately represented without adding excessive dissipation. A local stencil is also convenient for computations on adaptive meshes. The new method is compared with PPM by solving test problems for the linear advection equation and the inviscid Burgers equation. The efficiency of the methods is compared in terms of errors in various norms. A technique for solving the gas dynamics equations is described and tested for several one-and two-dimensional problems.     

Students’ perceived sociomathematical norms: The missing paradigm

This study proposes a framework for research which takes into account three aspects of sociomathematical norms: teachers’ endorsed norms, teachers’ and students’ enacted norms, and students’ perceived norms. We investigate these aspects of sociomathematical norms in two elementary school classrooms in relation to mathematically based and practically based explanations. Results indicate that even when the observed enacted norms are in agreement with the teachers’ endorsed norms, the students may not perceive these same norms. These results highlight the need to consider the students’ perspective when investigating sociomathematical norms.
