Two Optimal General Classes of Iterative Methods with Eighth-Order

Two new three-step classes of optimal iterative methods to approximate simple roots of nonlinear equations, satisfying the Kung-Traub’s conjecture, are designed. The development of the methods and their convergence analysis are provided joint with a generalization of both processes. In order to check the goodness of the theoretical results, some concrete methods are extracted and numerical and dynamically compared with some known methods.     

Area integral functions for sectorial operators on L spaces

Area integral functions are introduced for sectorial operators on L^p-spaces. We establish the equivalence between the square and area integral functions for sectorial operators on L^p spaces. This follows that the results of Cowling, Doust, McIntosh, Yagi, and Le Merdy on H^infin functional calculus of sectorial operators on L^p-spaces hold true when the square functions are replaced by the area integral functions.     

Stability of Displacement to the Second Fundamental Problem in Plane Elasticity

In this article, by using the stability of Cauchy type integral when the smooth perturbation for integral curve and the Sobolev type perturbation for kernel density happen, we discuss the stability of the second fundamental problem in plane elasticity when the smooth perturbation for the boundary of the elastic domain (unit disk) and the Sobolev type perturbation for the displacement happen. And the error estimate of the displacement between the second fundamental problem and its perturbed problem is obtained.     

Shrinking and boundedly complete Schauder frames in Fréchet spaces

We study Schauder frames in Fréchet spaces and their duals, as well as perturbation results. We define shrinking and boundedly complete Schauder frames on a locally convex space, study the duality of these two concepts and their relation with the reflexivity of the space. We characterize when an unconditional Schauder frame is shrinking or boundedly complete in terms of properties of the space. Several examples of concrete Schauder frames in function spaces are also presented.     

Mild solutions of non-autonomous second order problems with nonlocal initial conditions

In this paper we establish the existence of mild solutions for a non-autonomous abstract semi-linear second order differential equation submitted to nonlocal initial conditions. Our approach relies on the existence of an evolution operator for the corresponding linear equation and the properties of the Hausdorff measure of non-compactness.     

Optimal control of semilinear parabolic systems with state constraint

The aim of this work is to obtain the existence of optimal solution and maximum principle for optimal control problem with pointwise type state constraint governed by semilinear parabolic systems with certain polynomial-like nonlinearity. Application to optimal control problems of the phase transition system is given.     

γ-Active Constraints in Convex Semi-Infinite Programming

In this article, we extend the definition of γ-active constraints for linear semi-infinite programming to a definition applicable to convex semi-infinite programming, by two approaches. The first approach entails the use of the subdifferentials of the convex constraints at a point, while the second approach is based on the linearization of the convex inequality system by means of the convex conjugates of the defining functions. By both these methods, we manage to extend the results on γ-active constraints from the linear case to the convex case.     

Bargaining and membership

In coalitional games in which the players are partitioned into groups, we study the incentives of the members of a group to leave it and become singletons. In this context, we model a non-cooperative mechanism in which each player has to decide whether to stay in her group or to exit and act as a singleton. We show that players, acting myopically, always reach a Nash equilibrium.     

Large deviations for hitting times of a random walk in random environment on a strip

We consider a random walk in random environment on a strip, which is transient to the right. The random environment is stationary and ergodic. By the constructed enlarged random environment which was first introduced by Goldsheid （2008）, we obtain the large deviations conditioned on the environment （in the quenched case） for the hitting times of the random walk.     

Hochschild Cohomology and the Derived Class of m-Cluster Tilted Algebras of Type \mathbb{A}

In this paper, we characterize all the finite dimensional algebras that are derived equivalent to an m?cluster tilted algebra of type $\mathbb{A}$ . These algebras are gentle, and we show that the derived class of such an algebra is completely determined by the rank of its Grothendieck group and the dimension of its first Hochschild cohomology group.
