Local convergence of some iterative methods for generalized equations

We study generalized equations of the following form:

(render)

0f(x)+g(x)+F(x),

where f is Fréchet differentiable in a neighborhood of a solution x^* of (*) and g is Fréchet differentiable at x^* and where F is a set-valued map acting in Banach spaces. We prove the existence of a sequence (x_k) satisfying

which is super-linearly convergent to a solution of (*). We also present other versions of this iterative procedure that have superlinear and quadratic convergence, respectively.     

A note on perturbation of non-symmetric Dirichlet forms by signed smooth measures

This article discusses the perturbation of a non-symmetric Dirichlet form,(ε, D(ε)), by a signed smooth measure μ, whereμ=μ1 -μ2 with μ1 and μ2 being smooth measures. It gives a sufficient condition for the perturbed form (εμ, D(εμ)) (for some αo ≥ 0) to be a coercive closed form.     

An upper bound on Jacobi polynomials

Let be an orthonormal Jacobi polynomial of degree k. We will establish the following inequality:

Nevai, Generalized Jacobi weights, Christoffel functions, and Jacobi polynomials, SIAM J. Math. Anal. 25 (1994) 602–614] by proving that

Global existence and blow-up of solutions for a system of nonlinear viscoelastic wave equations with damping and source

In this paper we investigate the global existence and finite time blow-up of solutions to the system of nonlinear viscoelastic wave equations

in Ω×(0,T) with initial and Dirichlet boundary conditions, where Ω is a bounded domain in . Under suitable assumptions on the functions g_i(), , the initial data and the parameters in the equations, we establish several results concerning local existence, global existence, uniqueness and finite time blow-up property.     

Hardy–Sobolev critical elliptic equations with boundary singularities

Unlike the non-singular case s=0, or the case when 0 belongs to the interior of a domain Ω in (n3), we show that the value and the attainability of the best Hardy–Sobolev constant on a smooth domain Ω,

when 0<s<2, , and when 0 is on the boundary ∂Ω are closely related to the properties of the curvature of ∂Ω at 0. These conditions on the curvature are also relevant to the study of elliptic partial differential equations with singular potentials of the form:

where f is a lower order perturbative term at infinity and f(x,0)=0. We show that the positivity of the sectional curvature at 0 is relevant when dealing with Dirichlet boundary conditions, while the Neumann problems seem to require the positivity of the mean curvature at 0.     

On recurrence coefficients for rapidly decreasing exponential weights

Let, for example,

where α>0, k1, and exp_k=exp(exp(…exp())) denotes the kth iterated exponential. Let {A_n} denote the recurrence coefficients in the recurrence relation

xp_n(x)=A_np_n+1(x)+A_n-1p_n-1(x)

for the orthonormal polynomials {p_n} associated with W². We prove that as n→∞,

where log_k=log(log(…log())) denotes the kth iterated logarithm. This illustrates the relationship between the rate of convergence to of the recurrence coefficients, and the rate of decay of the exponential weight at ±1. More general non-even exponential weights on a non-symmetric interval (a,b) are also considered.     

On the relaxation of nonconvex superficial integral functionals

We present a new approach to the variational relaxation of functionals of the type:

Remark on a double-inequality for the Riemann zeta function

Let ζ be the Riemann zeta function and δ(x)=1/(2^x-1). For all x>0 we have

(1-δ(x))ζ(x)+αδ(x)<ζ(x+1)<(1-δ(x))ζ(x)+βδ(x),

with the best possible constant factors

This improves a recently published result of Cerone et al., J. Inequalities Pure Appl. Math. 5(2) (43) (2004), who showed that the double-inequality holds with and .     

Positive solutions for one-dimensional -Laplacian boundary value problems with sign changing nonlinearity

This paper deals with the existence of positive solutions for the one-dimensional p-Laplacian

subject to the boundary value conditions:

where _p(s)=|s|^p−2s,p>1. We show that it has at least one or two positive solutions under some assumptions by applying the fixed point theorem. The interesting points are that the nonlinear term f is involved with the first-order derivative explicitly and f may change sign.     

Weighted Hardy inequalities

For bounded Lipschitz domains D in it is known that if 1<p<∞, then for all β[0,β₀), where β₀=p−1>0, there is a constant c<∞ with

for all . We show that if D is merely assumed to be a bounded domain in that satisfies a Whitney cube-counting condition with exponent λ and has plump complement, then the same inequality holds with β₀ now taken to be . Further, we extend the known results (see [H. Brezis, M. Marcus, Hardy's inequalities revisited, Dedicated to Ennio De Giorgi, Ann. Scuola Norm. Sup. Pisa Cl. Sci. (4) 25 (1997–1998) 217–237; M. Hoffmann-Ostenhof, T. Hoffmann-Ostenhof, A. Laptev, A geometrical version of Hardy's inequality, J. Funct. Anal. 189 (2002) 537–548; J. Tidblom, A geometrical version of Hardy's inequality for W^1,p(Ω), Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 132 (2004) 2265–2271]) concerning the improved Hardy inequality

c=c(n,p), by showing that the class of domains for which the inequality holds is larger than that of all bounded convex domains.

A note on asymptotic behavior for negative drift random walk with dependent heavy-tailed steps and its application to risk theory

In this article, the dependent steps of a negative drift random walk are modelled as a two-sided linear process Xn =-μ ∞∑j=-∞ψn-jεj, where {ε, εn; -∞＜ n ＜ ∞}is a sequence of independent, identically distributed random variables with zero mean, μ＞0 is a constant and the coefficients {ψi;-∞＜ i ＜∞} satisfy 0 ＜∞∑j=-∞|jψj| ＜∞. Under the conditions that the distribution function of |ε| has dominated variation and ε satisfies certain tail balance conditions, the asymptotic behavior of P{supn≥0(-nμ ∞∑j=-∞εjβnj) ＞ x}is discussed. Then the result is applied to ultimate ruin probability.

The results are motivated by recent developments in machine learning, where they are used to bound the generalization error of learning algorithms. We also prove some more general results of similar nature, show the sharpness of the conditions and discuss the applications in learning theory.     

BV solutions to a degenerate parabolic equation for image denoising

In this article, the authors consider equation ut = div(ψ(Гu)A(|Du|2)Du) -(u- I), where ψ is strictly positive and Г is a known vector-valued mapping, A: R → R is decreasing and A(s) ～ 1/√a as s → ∞. This kind of equation arises naturally from image denoising. For an initial datum I ∈ BVloc ∩ L∞, the existence of BV solutions to the initial value problem of the equation is obtained.
