Trust region affine scaling algorithms for linearly constrained convex and concave programs

We study a trust region affine scaling algorithm for solving the linearly constrained convex or concave programming problem. Under primal nondegeneracy assumption, we prove that every accumulation point of the sequence generated by the algorithm satisfies the first order necessary condition for optimality of the problem. For a special class of convex or concave functions satisfying a certain invariance condition on their Hessians, it is shown that the sequences of iterates and objective function values generated by the algorithm convergeR-linearly andQ-linearly, respectively. Moreover, under primal nondegeneracy and for this class of objective functions, it is shown that the limit point of the sequence of iterates satisfies the first and second order necessary conditions for optimality of the problem. © 1998 The Mathematical Programming Society, Inc.

Sampled grating distributed feedback (SG DFB) semiconductor laser diode

A laser diode was designed using a method called sampled grating (SG) distributed feedback (DFB), in which the couplings have been distributed in certain regions along the laser cavity (i.e., regions contain grating). These regions play a big role in pushing the main mode to propagate faster than the side mode by increasing the time delay between them. This delay is due to the empty regions (i.e., regions without grating) along the laser cavity. Neither a phase shift nor incomplete grating have been taken into account with the new structure. The theoretical model in the present work is based on the coupled-mode equations which have been solved numerically by the mean of transfer matrix method (TMM).

Dominant regions in noncrystallographic hyperplane arrangements

For a crystallographic root system, dominant regions in the Catalan hyperplane arrangement are in bijection with antichains in a partial order on the positive roots. For a noncrystallographic root system, the analogous arrangement and regions have importance in the representation theory of an associated graded Hecke algebra. Since there is also an analogous root order, it is natural to hope that a similar bijection can be used to understand these regions. We show that such a bijection does hold for type H₃ and for type I₂(m), including arbitrary ratio of root lengths when m is even, but does not hold for type H₄. We give a criterion that explains this failure and a list of the 16 antichains in the H₄ root order which correspond to empty regions.     

Variable Wavelengths Fiber Bragg Gratings Written with A Phase Mask and Four Prisms

Using only one diffractive element, the Talbot interferometer provides a robust and inherently stable method for reproducing fiber Bragg gratings with variable wavelengths, and reduces the complexity of the fiber grating fabrication system. However, the usable length of the grating is limited by the practical length of the mirrors. This paper presents a phase mask with two fixed prisms and two rotational prisms to inscribe fiber Bragg gratings with variable Bragg wavelengths. In this system, the fiber Bragg grating is inscribed by UV interference stripes of 193 nm derived from two rotational prisms and two fixed prisms, where phase mask is used as a beam splitter of ±1 order diffraction light. It is noteworthy that the tunable phase mask interferometer decreases the demand of the length of prism evidently.
