Let ψ be convex with respect to ?, B a convex body in Rn and f a positive concave function on B. A well-known result by Berwald states that (1) if ξ is chosen such that .The main purpose in this paper is to characterize those functions f : B → R+ such that (1) holds. 相似文献

In this paper, we consider functions of the form f(x,y)=f(x)g(y){\phi(x,y)=f(x)g(y)} over a box, where
f(x), x ? \mathbb R{f(x), x\in {\mathbb R}} is a nonnegative monotone convex function with a power or an exponential form, and
g(y), y ? \mathbb Rn{g(y), y\in {\mathbb R}^n} is a component-wise concave function which changes sign over the vertices of its domain. We derive closed-form expressions
for convex envelopes of various functions in this category. We demonstrate via numerical examples that the proposed envelopes
are significantly tighter than popular factorable programming relaxations. 相似文献

A method is described for globally minimizing concave functions over convex sets whose defining constraints may be nonlinear. The algorithm generates linear programs whose solutions minimize the convex envelope of the original function over successively tighter polytopes enclosing the feasible region. The algorithm does not involve cuts of the feasible region, requires only simplex pivot operations and univariate search computations to be performed, allows the objective function to be lower semicontinuous and nonseparable, and is guaranteed to converge to the global solution. Computational aspects of the algorithm are discussed. 相似文献

Submajorisation inequalities for convex and concave functions of sums of measurable operators 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
It is shown that non-negative, increasing, convex (respectively, concave) functions are superadditive (respectively, subadditive)
with respect to submajorisation on the positive cone of the space of all τ-measurable operators affiliated with a semifinite
von Neumann algebra. This extends recent results for n × n-matrices by Ando-Zhan, Kosem and Bourin-Uchiyama.

In this paper, we are concerned with the problem of boundedness in the constrained global maximization of a convex function.
In particular, we present necessary and sufficient conditions for boundedness of a feasible region defined by reverse convex
constraints and we establish sufficient and necessary conditions for existence of an upper bound for a convex objective function
defined over the system of concave inequality constraints. We also address the problem of boundedness in the global maximization
problem when a feasible region is convex and unbounded. 相似文献

In this paper, we derive explicit characterizations of convex and concave envelopes of several nonlinear functions over various subsets of a hyper-rectangle. These envelopes are obtained by identifying polyhedral subdivisions of the hyper-rectangle over which the envelopes can be constructed easily. In particular, we use these techniques to derive, in closed-form, the concave envelopes of concave-extendable supermodular functions and the convex envelopes of disjunctive convex functions. 相似文献

In this paper we are concerned with the problem of unboundedness and existence of an optimal solution in reverse convex and concave integer optimization problems. In particular, we present necessary and sufficient conditions for existence of an upper bound for a convex objective function defined over the feasible region contained in ${\mathbb{Z}^n}$ . The conditions for boundedness are provided in a form of an implementable algorithm, showing that for the considered class of functions, the integer programming problem is unbounded if and only if the associated continuous problem is unbounded. We also address the problem of boundedness in the global optimization problem of maximizing a convex function over a set of integers contained in a convex and unbounded region. It is shown in the paper that in both types of integer programming problems, the objective function is either unbounded from above, or it attains its maximum at a feasible integer point. 相似文献

Let be a smooth bounded domain, let a, b be two functions that are possibly discontinuous and unbounded with a ≥ 0 in and b > 0 in a set of positive measure and let 0 < p < 1 < q. We prove that there exists some 0 < Λ < ∞ such that the nonlinear Dirichlet periodic parabolic problem in has a positive solution for all 0 < λ < Λ and that there is no positive solution if λ > Λ. In some cases we also show the
existence of a minimal solution for all 0 < λ < Λ and that the solution u
λ can be chosen such that λ → u
λ is differentiable and increasing. We also give some upper and lower estimates for such a Λ. All results remain true for the
analogous elliptic problems.
