In this paper, influenced by the ideas from A. Mihail, The canonical projection between the shift space of an IIFS and its attractor as a fixed point, Fixed Point Theory Appl., 2015, Paper No. 75, 15 p., we associate to every generalized…
In this short survey, I revisit the role of the proximal point method in large scale optimization. I focus on three recent examples: a proximally guided subgradient method for weakly convex stochastic approximation, the prox-linear…
The paper presents two edge grouping algorithms for finding a closed contour starting from a particular edge point and enclosing a fixation point. Both algorithms search a shortest simple cycle in \textit{an angularly ordered graph} derived…
This paper investigates the fixed points and best proximity points of multivalued cyclic self-mappings in metric spaces under a generalized contractive condition involving Hausdorff distances.
This paper revisits the well-studied fixed point problem from a unified viewpoint of mathematical modeling and canonical duality theory, i.e. the original problem is first reformulated as a nonconvex optimization problem, its well-posedness…
We propose, analyze, and test a novel continuous data assimilation two-phase flow algorithm for reservoir simulation. We show that the solutions of the algorithm, constructed using coarse mesh observations, converge at an exponential rate…
We present a formula for the convolution $\delta_{C_1}*\delta_{C_2}$ of two circle impulses. The derivation uses a classical addition theorem for Bessel functions.
This tutorial summarizes recent advances in the convex relaxation of the optimal power flow (OPF) problem, focusing on structural properties rather than algorithms. Part I presents two power flow models, formulates OPF and their relaxations…
In the first part, the stability of two-dimensional parallel flow is discussed. A more restrictively general stability criterion for inviscid parallel flow is obtained analytically. In the second part, we report the numerical simulations of…
We consider a family of random locations, called intrinsic location functionals, of periodic stationary processes. This family includes but is not limited to the location of the path supremum and first/last hitting times. We first show that…
We present a simple and efficient acceleration technique for an arbitrary method for computing the Euclidean projection of a point onto a convex polytope, defined as the convex hull of a finite number of points, in the case when the number…
A model of fully developed turbulence of a compressible fluid is briefly reviewed. It is assumed that fluid dynamics is governed by a stochastic version of Navier-Stokes equation. We show how corresponding field theoretic-model can be…
Given a continuous family of C^2 functionals of Fredholm type, we show that the non-vanishing of the spectral flow for the family of Hessians along a known (trivial) branch of critical points not only entails bifurcation of nontrivial…
We provide an estimate of the distance (in the dual flat seminorm) of the normal cycles of convex bodies with given Hausdorff distance. We also give an estimate (in the bounded Lipschitz metric) of the support measures of convex bodies.
In this paper we will introduce the methodology of analysis of the convex hull of the attractors of iterated functional systems (IFS) - compact fixed sets of self-similarity mapping. The method is based on a function which for a direction,…
We show that the set of fixed points of the average of two resolvents can be found from the set of fixed points for compositions of two resolvents associated with scaled monotone operators. Recently, the proximal average has attracted…
When $\alpha$ is a flow on a unital AF algebra $A$ such that there is an increasing sequence of finite-dimensional $\alpha$-invariant C*-subalgebras of $A$ with dense union, we call $\alpha$ an AF flow. We show that an approximate AF flow…
We study the adsorption-desorption of fluid molecules on a solid substrate by introducing a schematic model in which the adsorption/desorption transition probabilities are given by irreversible kinetic constraints with a tunable violation…
In part I we considered the problem of convergence to a saddle point of a concave-convex function via gradient dynamics and an exact characterization was given to their asymptotic behaviour. In part II we consider a general class of…
We show that a Lagrangian inclusion in $\mathbb C^2$ with double transverse self-intersection points and standard open Whitney umbrellas is rationally convex. As an application we show that any compact surface $S$, except $S^2$ and $\mathbb…
