We consider the problem of placing n small balls of given radius in a certain domain subject to a force f in order to minimize the compliance of the configuration. Then we let n tend to infinity and look at the asymptotics of the…
A large number of problems in optimization, machine learning, signal processing can be effectively addressed by suitable semidefinite programming (SDP) relaxations. Unfortunately, generic SDP solvers hardly scale beyond instances with a few…
Optimal values and solutions of empirical approximations of stochastic optimization problems can be viewed as statistical estimators of their true values. From this perspective, it is important to understand the asymptotic behavior of these…
We develop lower bounds for the energy of configurations in $\mathbb{R}^d$ periodic with respect to a lattice. In certain cases, the construction of sharp bounds can be formulated as a finite dimensional, multivariate polynomial…
We find sharp absolute constants $C_1$ and $C_2$ with the following property: every well-rounded lattice of rank 3 in a Euclidean space has a minimal basis so that the solid angle spanned by these basis vectors lies in the interval…
We prove three theorems about the asymptotic behavior of solutions $u$ to the homogeneous Dirichlet problem for the Laplace equation at boundary points with tangent cones. First, under very mild hypotheses, we show that the doubling index…
The continuum theory of domain structures in ferromagnetic/superconducting bilayers fails when the equilibrium domain size becomes comparable with effective penetration depth $\Lambda$. Instead, a lattice of discrete vortices must be…
We study maximal sublattices of finite semidistributive lattices via their complements. We focus on the conjecture that such complements are always intervals, which is known to be true for bounded lattices. Since the class of…
We discuss some aspects of the continuum limit of some lattice models, in particular the $2D$ $O(N)$ models. The continuum limit is taken either in an infinite volume or in a box whose size is a fixed fraction of the infinite volume…
We study the phase structure of QCD at finite temperature and density by numerical simulations on a lattice. The most important point for the numerical study at finite density is treatment of the sign problem. We propose a method to avoid…
Consider a bounded open set $U$ in $R^n$ and a Lipschitz function g from the boundary of $U$ to $R^m$. Does this function always have a canonical optimal Lipschitz extension to all of $U$? We propose a notion of optimal Lipschitz extension…
We classify, according to their computational complexity, integer optimization problems whose constraints and objective functions are polynomials with integer coefficients and the number of variables is fixed. For the optimization of an…
In this paper we study an optimal control problem (OCP) associated to a linear elliptic equation {on a bounded domain $\Omega$}. The matrix-valued coefficients A of such systems is our control taken in L2 which in particular may comprise…
We prove that if $\Omega$ is a simply connected quadrature domain for a distribution with compact support and the infinity point belongs the boundary, then the boundary has an asymptotic curve that is either a straight line or a parabola or…
Recently, a new local optimality concept for minimax problems, termed calm local minimax points, has been introduced. In this paper, we extend this concept to a general class of nonsmooth, nonconvex nonconcave minimax problems with coupled…
We consider shape optimization problems for general integral functionals of the calculus of variations that may contain a boundary term. In particular, this class includes optimization problems governed by elliptic equations with a Robin…
We propose two new alternating direction methods to solve "fully" nonsmooth constrained convex problems. Our algorithms have the best known worst-case iteration-complexity guarantee under mild assumptions for both the objective residual and…
We investigate the large-distance asymptotics of optimal Hardy weights on $\mathbb Z^d$, $d\geq 3$, via the super solution construction. For the free discrete Laplacian, the Hardy weight asymptotic is the familiar…
In this paper, we extend the definition of qx-asymptotic function, for extended real-valued function that define on an infinite dimensional topological normed space without lower semicontinuity or quasi-convexity condition. As the main…
We ask whether a stationary lattice in dimension $d$ whose points are shifted by identically distributed but possibly dependent perturbations remains hyperuniform. When $d = 1$ or $2$, we show that it is the case when the perturbations have…
