We consider the stability of Robust Optimization problems with respect to perturbations in their uncertainty sets. We focus on Linear Optimization problems, including those with a possibly infinite number of constraints, also known as…
In many submodular optimization applications, datasets are naturally partitioned into disjoint subsets. These scenarios give rise to submodular optimization problems with partition-based constraints, where the desired solution set should be…
In this paper we show that any increasing functional of the first k eigenvalues of the Dirichlet Laplacian admits a (quasi-)open minimizer among the subsets of R^N of unit measure. In particular, there exists such a minimizer which is…
We study a class of semilinear free boundary problems in which admissible functions $u$ have a topological constraint, or spanning condition, on their 1-level set. This constraint forces $\{u=1\}$, which is the free boundary, to behave like…
It is shown that eigenvalues of Laplace-Beltrami operators on compact Riemannian manifolds can be determined as limits of eigenvalues of certain finite-dimensional operators in spaces of polyharmonic functions with singularities. In…
We obtain a probabilistic proof of the local Lipschitz continuity for the optimal stopping boundary of a class of problems with state space $[0,T]\times\mathbb{R}^d$, $d\ge 1$. To the best of our knowledge this is the only existing proof…
The irreducible decomposition of a unitary representation often contains continuous spectrum when restricted to a non-compact subgroup. The author singles out a nice class of branching problems where each irreducible summand occurs…
The eigenfunctions of the Laplace Beltrami operator (Manifold Harmonics) define a function basis that can be used in spectral analysis on manifolds. In [21] the authors recast the problem as an orthogonality constrained optimization problem…
In this paper, we study the spectral problem on a compact Finsler manifold with or without boundary. More precisely, given a certain collection of sets in Sobolev space $H^{1,2}(M)$ and a dimension-like function, we can define a…
We introduce a new Partition of Unity Method for the numerical homogenization of elliptic partial differential equations with arbitrarily rough coefficients. We do not restrict to a particular ansatz space or the existence of a finite…
A fundamental problem in numerical analysis and approximation theory is approximating smooth functions by polynomials. A much harder version under recent consideration is to enforce bounds constraints on the approximating polynomial. In…
We show that the standard partition of unity subordinate to an open cover of a metric space has Lipschitz constant $\max(1,M-1)/\mathcal{L}$, where $\mathcal{L}$ is the Lebesgue number and $M$ is the multiplicity of the cover. If the metric…
This work concerns the distance in 2-norm from a matrix polynomial to a nearest polynomial with a specified number of its eigenvalues at specified locations in the complex plane. Perturbations are allowed only on the constant coefficient…
We pursue the study of a model convex functional with orthotropic structure and nonstandard growth conditions, this time focusing on the sub-quadratic case. We prove that bounded local minimizers are locally Lipschitz. No restriction on the…
By applying some techniques of set-valued and variational analysis, we study solution stability of nonhomogeneous split equality problems and nonhomogeneous split feasibility problems, where the constraint sets need not be convex. Necessary…
In this paper, we consider a free boundary problem with volume constraint. We show that positive minimizer is locally Lipschitz and the free boundary is analytic away from a singular set with Hausdorff dimension at most $n-8$.
All physical systems are affected by some noise that limits the resolution that can be attained in partitioning their state space. For chaotic, locally hyperbolic flows, this resolution depends on the interplay of the local…
In this paper, we consider set optimization problems where the solution concept is given by the set approach. Specifically, we deal with the lower less and the upper less set relations. First, we derive the convexity and Lipschitzianity of…
Given a bounded open set $\Omega$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ (or a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary), and a partition of $\Omega$ by $k$ open sets $\omega_j$, we consider the quantity $\max_j \lambda(\omega_j)$, where $\lambda(\omega_j)$ is…
The paper is devoted to an analysis of optimality conditions for nonsmooth multidimensional problems of the calculus of variations with various types of constraints, such as additional constraints at the boundary and isoperimetric…
