This study presents how the introduction of a metaphor for sequence convergence constituted an experientially real context in which an undergraduate real analysis student developed a property-based definition of sequence convergence. I use elements from Zandieh and Rasmussen's (2010) Defining as a Mathematical Activity framework to trace the transformation of the student's conception from a non-standard, personal concept definition rooted in the metaphor to a concept definition for sequence convergence compatible with the standard definition. This account of the development of the definition of sequence convergence differs from prior research in the sense that it began neither with examples or visual notions, nor with the statement of the formal definition. This study contributes to the Realistic Mathematics Education literature as it documents a student's progression through the definition-of and definition-for stages of mathematical activity in an interactive lecture classroom context. 相似文献

We introduce a two-step direct method, like Korpelevich's, for solving monotone variational inequalities. The advantage of our method over that one is that ours converges strongly in Hilbert spaces, whereas only weak convergence has been proved for Korpelevich's algorithm. Our method also has the following desirable property: the sequence converges to the solution of the problem that lies closest to the initial iterate. 相似文献

AMS (MOS): 45B05, 45C05 The standard method for obtaining a nontrivial solution to Robin's equation is by successive approximation. The usual proof of the convergence of the sequence obtained by this iteration procedure is based on Neumann's method of arithmetic mean, and requires that the surface over which the integral operator is defined be smooth and convex. Without assuming that the surface is convex, in this paper we give a new and simpler proof of the convergence of this sequence. 相似文献

The purpose of this paper is to establish the necessary conditions for optimality of a controlled stochastic differential system without differentiability assumptions on the drift. We use an approximation argument in order to obtain a sequence of smooth control problems, and we apply Ekeland's variational principle to derive the associated adjoint processes. Passing at the Limit with respect to the stable convergence, we obtain a weak adjoint process and the inequality between Hamiltonians. This result is a generalisation of Kushner's maximum principle 相似文献

We present two extensions of Korpelevich's extragradient method for solving the variational inequality problem (VIP) in Euclidean space. In the first extension, we replace the second orthogonal projection onto the feasible set of the VIP in Korpelevich's extragradient method with a specific subgradient projection. The second extension allows projections onto the members of an infinite sequence of subsets which epi-converges to the feasible set of the VIP. We show that in both extensions the convergence of the method is preserved and present directions for further research. 相似文献

We investigate Chebyshev spectral collocation and waveform relaxation methods for nonlinear delay partial differential equations. Waveform relaxation methods allow to replace the system of nonlinear differential equations resulting from the application of spectral collocation methods by a sequence of linear problems which can be effectively integrated in a parallel computing environment by highly stable implicit methods. The effectiveness of this approach is illustrated by numerical experiments on the Hutchinson's equation. The boundedness of waveform relaxation iterations is proved for the Hutchinson's equation. This result is used in the proof of the superlinear convergence of the iterations. 相似文献

We study the efficiency of the accelerated Newton method (Garlach, SIAM Rev. 36 (1994) 272–276) for several orders of convergence versus Danby's method for the resolution of Kepler's equation; we find that the cited method of order three is competitive with Danby's method and the classical Newton's method. We also generalize the accelerated Newton method for the resolution of system of algebraic equations, obtaining a formula of order three and a proof of its convergence; its application to several examples shows that its efficiency is greater than Newton's method. 相似文献

In linear multistep methods with variable step size, the method's coefficients are functions of the step size ratios. The coefficients therefore need to be recomputed on every step to retain the method's proper order of convergence. An alternative approach is to use step density control to make the method adaptive. If the step size sequence is smooth, the method can use constant coefficients without losing its order of convergence. The paper introduces this new adaptive technique and demonstrates its feasibility with a few test problems. 相似文献

Recently, Kort and Bertsekas (Ref. 1) and Hartman (Ref. 2) presented independently a new penalty function algorithm of exponential type for solving inequality-constrained minimization problems. The main purpose of this work is to give a proof on the rate of convergence of a modification of the exponential penalty method proposed by these authors. We show that the sequence of points generated by the modified algorithm converges to the solution of the original nonconvex problem linearly and that the sequence of estimates of the optimal Lagrange multiplier converges to this multiplier superlinearly. The question of convergence of the modified method is discussed. The present paper hinges on ideas of Mangasarian (Ref. 3), but the case considered here is not covered by Mangasarian's theory. 相似文献

A new class of contractive mappings called pointwise asymptotically ?-strict pseudo-contractions in Hilbert spaces is introduced and weak convergence of the sequence generated by Mann's iterative scheme to a fixed point of a uniformly Lipschitzian and pointwise asymptotically ?-strict pseudo-contractive mapping T in a Hilbert space is established. Also, a new kind of monotone hybrid method which is a modification of Mann's iterative scheme for finding a common fixed point of an infinitely countable family of uniformly Lipschitzian and pointwise asymptotically ?-strict pseudo-contractive mappings is proposed. Strong convergence of the sequence generated by the proposedmonotone hybrid method for an infinitely countable family of uniformly Lipschitzian and pointwise asymptotically ?-strict pseudo-contractive mappings in a Hilbert space is also shown. The results presented in this article extend and improve some known results in the literature. 相似文献

Using the step method, we study a system of delay differential equations and we prove the existence and uniqueness of the solution and the convergence of
the successive approximation sequence using the Perov''s contraction principle and the step method. Also, we propose a new algorithm of successive approximation sequence generated by the step method and, as an example, we consider some second order delay differential equations with initial conditions. 相似文献

Pointwise Weak Law of Large Numbers and Weak Law of Large Numbers in the norm topology of D[0,l] are shown to be equivalent under uniform convex tightness and uniform integrability conditions for weighted sums of a sequence of random elements in D[0,1]. Uniform convex tightness and uniform integrability conditions are jointly characterized. Marcinkiewicz–Zygmund–Kolmogorov's and Brunk– Chung's Strong Laws of Large Numbers are derived in the setting of D[0,l]-space under uniform convex tightness and uniform integrability conditions. Equivalence of pointwise convergence, convergence in the Skorokhod topology and convergence in the norm topology f o r sequences in D[0,l] is studied 相似文献

It is shown that the matrix sequence generated by Euler's method starting from the identity matrix converges to the principal pth root of a square matrix, if all the eigenvalues of the matrix are in a region including the one for Newton's method given by Guo in 2010. The convergence is cubic if the matrix is invertible. A modification version of Euler's method using the Schur decomposition is developed. Numerical experiments show that the modified algorithm has the overall good numerical behavior. 相似文献

We analyze the semilocal convergence of Steffensen's method, using a novel technique, which is based on recurrence relations, for solving systems of nonlinear equations. This technique allows analyzing the convergence of Steffensen's method to solutions of equations, where the function involved can be both differentiable and nondifferentiable. Moreover, this technique also allows enlarging the domain of starting points for Steffensen's method from certain predictions with the simplified Steffensen method. 相似文献

We present an original alternative to the majorant principle of Kantorovich to study the semilocal convergence of Steffensen's method when it is applied to solve nonlinear systems which are differentiable. This alternative allows choosing starting points from which the convergence of Steffensen's method is guaranteed, but it is not from the majorant principle. Moreover, this study extends the applicability of Steffensen's method to the solution of nonlinear systems which are nondifferentiable and improves a previous result given by the authors. 相似文献

The Mann iterations for nonexpansive mappings have in general only weak convergence in a Hilbert space. We modify an iterative method of Mann's type introduced by Nakajo and Takahashi [Strong convergence theorems for nonexpansive mappings and nonexpansive semigroups, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 279 (2003) 372–379] for nonexpansive mappings and prove strong convergence of our modified Mann's iteration processes for asymptotically nonexpansive mappings and semigroups. 相似文献

Newton's method and Kurchatov's method are iterative processes known for their fast speed of convergence. We construct from both methods an iterative method to approximate solutions of nonlinear equations given by a nondifferentiable operator, and we study its semilocal convergence in Banach spaces. Finally, we consider several applications of this new iterative process. 相似文献

A simplified Fokker-Planck equation of statistical plasma physics is mathematically investigated. For the Cauchy problem a constructive approximation method is introduced. This procedure yields a sequence (fn) of approximate densities, uniformly converging to the problem's global classical solution with linear convergence velocity. 相似文献
