We introduce and make estimates for several new approximations that in appropriate asymptotic limits yield the key PDE for
weak KAM theory, namely a Hamilton–Jacobi type equation for a potential u and a coupled transport equation for a measure σ. We revisit as well a singular variational approximation introduced in Evans (Calc Vari Partial Differ Equ 17:159–177, 2003)
and demonstrate “approximate integrability” of certain phase space dynamics related to the Hamiltonian flow. Other examples
include a pair of strongly coupled PDE suggested by the Lions–Lasry theory (Lasry and Lions in Japan J Math 2:229–260, 2007)
of mean field games and a new and extremely singular elliptic equation suggested by sup-norm variational theory.

We investigate the Dirichlet weighted eigenvalue problem for a fourth-order elliptic operator with variable coefficients in
a bounded domain in
\mathbbRn {\mathbb{R}^n} . We establish a sharp inequality for its eigenvalues. It yields an estimate for the upper bound of the (k + 1)th eigenvalue in terms of the first k eigenvalues. Moreover, we also obtain estimates for some special cases of this problem. In particular, our results generalize
the Wang–Xia inequality (J. Funct. Anal., 245, No. 1, 334–352 (2007)) for the clamped-plate problem to a fourth-order elliptic operator with variable coefficients. 相似文献

We continue to study the asymptotic behavior of least energy solutions to the following fourth order elliptic problem (E
p
): as p gets large, where Ω is a smooth bounded domain in R
4
. In our earlier paper (Takahashi in Osaka J. Math., 2006), we have shown that the least energy solutions remain bounded uniformly
in p and they have one or two “peaks” away form the boundary. In this note, following the arguments in Adimurthi and Grossi (Proc.
AMS 132(4):1013–1019, 2003) and Lin and Wei (Comm. Pure Appl. Math. 56:784–809, 2003), we will obtain more sharper estimates
of the upper bound of the least energy solutions and prove that the least energy solutions must develop single-point spiky
pattern, under the assumption that the domain is convex. 相似文献

In the framework of the Jacobi-weighted Besov spaces, we analyze the lower and upper bounds of errors in the h–p version of boundary element solutions on quasiuniform meshes for elliptic problems on polygons. Both lower bound and upper
bound are optimal in h and p, and they are of the same order. The optimal convergence of the h–p version of boundary element method with quasiuniform meshes is proved, which includes the optimal rates for h version with quasiuniform meshes and the p version with quasiuniform degrees as two special cases.

We extend the definition of solutions of backward stochastic differential equations to the case where the driving process
is a diffusion corresponding to symmetric uniformly elliptic divergence form operator. We show existence and uniqueness of
solutions of such equations under natural assumptions on the data and show its connections with solutions of semilinear parabolic
partial differential equations in Sobolev spaces.

Given a simple, undirected graph G, Budinich (Discret Appl Math 127:535–543, 2003) proposed a lower bound on the clique number of G by combining the quadratic programming formulation of the clique number due to Motzkin and Straus (Can J Math 17:533–540,
1965) with the spectral decomposition of the adjacency matrix of G. This lower bound improves the previously known spectral lower bounds on the clique number that rely on the Motzkin–Straus
formulation. In this paper, we give a simpler, alternative characterization of this lower bound. For regular graphs, this
simpler characterization allows us to obtain a simple, closed-form expression of this lower bound as a function of the positive
eigenvalues of the adjacency matrix. Our computational results shed light on the quality of this lower bound in comparison
with the other spectral lower bounds on the clique number. 相似文献

In this work, we study a class of Euler functionals defined in Banach spaces, associated with quasilinear elliptic problems
involving p-Laplace operator (p > 2). First we obtain perturbation results in the spirit of the remarkable paper by Marino and Prodi (Boll. U.M.I. (4) 11(Suppl.
fasc. 3): 1–32, 1975), using the new definition of nondegeneracy given in (Ann. Inst. H. Poincaré: Analyse Non Linéaire. 2:271–292, 2003). We also extend Morse index estimates for minimax
critical points, introduced by Lazer and Solimini (Nonlinear Anal. T.M.A. 12:761–775, 1988) in the Hilbert case, to our Banach
setting.

We derive residual based a posteriori error estimates for parabolic problems on mixed form solved using Raviart–Thomas–Nedelec
finite elements in space and backward Euler in time. The error norm considered is the flux part of the energy, i.e. weighted
L
2(Ω) norm integrated over time. In order to get an optimal order bound, an elementwise computable post-processed approximation
of the scalar variable needs to be used. This is a common technique used for elliptic problems. The final bound consists of
terms, capturing the spatial discretization error and the time discretization error and can be used to drive an adaptive algorithm. 相似文献

In this contribution we analyze a generalization of the heterogeneous multiscale finite element method for elliptic homogenization
problems in perforated domains. The method was originally introduced by E and Engquist (Commun Math Sci 1(1):87–132, 2003)
for homogenization problems in fixed domains. It is based on a standard finite element approach on the macroscale, where the
stiffness matrix is computed by solving local cell problems on the microscale. A-posteriori error estimates are derived in
L
2(Ω) by reformulating the problem into a discrete two-scale formulation (see also, Ohlberger in Multiscale Model Simul 4(1):88–114,
2005) and using duality methods afterwards. Numerical experiments are given in order to numerically evaluate the efficiency
of the error estimate. 相似文献

Convergence rate analysis of iteractive algorithms for solving variational inequality problems 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
M.V. Solodov 《Mathematical Programming》2003,96(3):513-528
We present a unified convergence rate analysis of iterative methods for solving the variational inequality problem. Our results
are based on certain error bounds; they subsume and extend the linear and sublinear rates of convergence established in several
previous studies. We also derive a new error bound for $\gamma$-strictly monotone variational inequalities. The class of algorithms
covered by our analysis in fairly broad. It includes some classical methods for variational inequalities, e.g., the extragradient,
matrix splitting, and proximal point methods. For these methods, our analysis gives estimates not only for linear convergence
(which had been studied extensively), but also sublinear, depending on the properties of the solution. In addition, our framework
includes a number of algorithms to which previous studies are not applicable, such as the infeasible projection methods, a
separation-projection method, (inexact) hybrid proximal point methods, and some splitting techniques. Finally, our analysis
covers certain feasible descent methods of optimization, for which similar convergence rate estimates have been recently obtained
by Luo [14].

We consider diffraction at random point scatterers on general discrete point sets in ℝν, restricted to a finite volume. We allow for random amplitudes and random dislocations of the scatterers. We investigate
the speed of convergence of the random scattering measures applied to an observable towards its mean, when the finite volume
tends to infinity. We give an explicit universal large deviation upper bound that is exponential in the number of scatterers.
The rate is given in terms of a universal function that depends on the point set only through the minimal distance between
points, and on the observable only through a suitable Sobolev-norm. Our proof uses a cluster expansion and also provides a
central limit theorem.

We perform a smoothed analysis of a termination phase for linear programming algorithms. By combining this analysis with
the smoothed analysis of Renegar's condition number by Dunagan, Spielman and Teng (http://arxiv.org/abs/cs.DS/0302011) we
show that the smoothed complexity of interior-point algorithms for linear programming is O(m
3
log(m/Σ)). In contrast, the best known bound on the worst-case complexity of linear programming is O(m
3 L), where L could be as large as m. We include an introduction to smoothed analysis and a tutorial on proof techniques that have been useful in smoothed analyses.

We consider optimality systems of Karush-Kuhn-Tucker (KKT) type, which arise, for example, as primal-dual conditions characterizing
solutions of optimization problems or variational inequalities. In particular, we discuss error bounds and Newton-type methods
for such systems. An exhaustive comparison of various regularity conditions which arise in this context is given. We obtain
a new error bound under an assumption which we show to be strictly weaker than assumptions previously used for KKT systems,
such as quasi-regularity or semistability (equivalently, the R
0-property). Error bounds are useful, among other things, for identifying active constraints and developing efficient local
algorithms. We propose a family of local Newton-type algorithms. This family contains some known active-set Newton methods,
as well as some new methods. Regularity conditions required for local superlinear convergence compare favorably with convergence
conditions of nonsmooth Newton methods and sequential quadratic programming methods.

Recent advances in the solution of quadratic assignment problems 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

The quadratic assignment problem (QAP) is notoriously difficult for exact solution methods. In the past few years a number
of long-open QAPs, including those posed by Steinberg (1961), Nugent et al. (1968) and Krarup (1972) were solved to optimality
for the first time. The solution of these problems has utilized both new algorithms and novel computing structures. We describe
these developments, as well as recent work which is likely to result in the solution of even more difficult instances.

In this paper, we establish oracle inequalities for penalized projection estimators of the intensity of an inhomogeneous
Poisson process. We study consequently the adaptive properties of penalized projection estimators. At first we provide lower
bounds for the minimax risk over various sets of smoothness for the intensity and then we prove that our estimators achieve
these lower bounds up to some constants. The crucial tools to obtain the oracle inequalities are new concentration inequalities
for suprema of integral functionals of Poisson processes which are analogous to Talagrand's inequalities for empirical processes.

Optimization models and methods have been used extensively in the forest industry. In this paper we describe the general
wood-flow in forestry and a variety of planning problems. These cover planning periods from a fraction of a second to more
than one hundred years. The problems are modelled using linear, integer and nonlinear models. Solution methods used depend
on the required solution time and include for example dynamic programming, LP methods, branch & bound methods, heuristics
and column generation. The importance of modelling and qualitative information is also discussed.

Summary. We consider the superposition of a speeded up symmetric simple exclusion process with a Glauber dynamics, which leads to
a reaction diffusion equation. Using a method introduced in [Y] based on the study of the time evolution of the H
−1
norm, we prove that the mean density of particles on microscopic boxes of size N
α
, for any 12/13<α<1, converges to the solution of the hydrodynamic equation for times up to exponential order in N, provided the initial state is in the basin of attraction of some stable equilibrium of the reaction–diffusion equation.
From this result we obtain a lower bound for the escape time of a domain in the basin of attraction of the stable equilibrium
point.

We introduce a new upper bound for the maximum-entropy sampling problem. Our bound is described as the solution of a linear
integer program. The bound depends on a partition of the underlying set of random variables. For the case in which each block
of the partition has bounded cardinality, we describe an efficient dynamic-programming algorithm to calculate the bound. For
the very special case in which the blocks have no more than two elements, we describe an efficient algorithm for calculating
the bound based on maximum-weight matching. This latter formulation has particular value for local-search procedures that
seek to find a good partition. We relate our bound to recent bounds of Hoffman, Lee and Williams. Finally, we report on the
results of some computational experiments.
