Slow-fast systems on the two-torus are studied. As it was shown before, canard cycles are generic in such systems, which is in drastic contrast with the planar case. It is known that if the rotation number of the Poincare map is integer and…
In this paper, we study a class of optimization problems, called Mathematical Programs with Cardinality Constraints (MPCaC). This kind of problem is generally difficult to deal with, because it involves a constraint that is not continuous…
