Optimality Conditions for Non-Qualified Parabolic Control Problems
1994
We consider parabolic state constrained optimal control problems where the usual Slater condition is not necessarily satisfied. Instead, a weaker interiority property is assumed. Optimality conditions with a Lagrange multiplier are given. As an application we present an augmented Lagrangian algorithm. Numerical test results are included.
The Euler–Lagrange equation for the Anisotropic least gradient problem
2016
Abstract In this paper we find the Euler–Lagrange equation for the anisotropic least gradient problem inf { ∫ Ω ϕ ( x , D u ) : u ∈ B V ( Ω ) , u | ∂ Ω = f } being ϕ a metric integrand and f ∈ L 1 ( ∂ Ω ) . We also characterize the functions of ϕ -least gradient as those whose boundary of the level set is ϕ -area minimizing in Ω .
Nonradial normalized solutions for nonlinear scalar field equations
2018
We study the following nonlinear scalar field equation $$ -\Delta u=f(u)-\mu u, \quad u \in H^1(\mathbb{R}^N) \quad \text{with} \quad \|u\|^2_{L^2(\mathbb{R}^N)}=m. $$ Here $f\in C(\mathbb{R},\mathbb{R})$, $m>0$ is a given constant and $\mu\in\mathbb{R}$ is a Lagrange multiplier. In a mass subcritical case but under general assumptions on the nonlinearity $f$, we show the existence of one nonradial solution for any $N\geq4$, and obtain multiple (sometimes infinitely many) nonradial solutions when $N=4$ or $N\geq6$. In particular, all these solutions are sign-changing.
Mechanically-based approach to non-local elasticity: Variational principles
2010
Abstract The mechanically-based approach to non-local elastic continuum, will be captured through variational calculus, based on the assumptions that non-adjacent elements of the solid may exchange central body forces, monotonically decreasing with their interdistance, depending on the relative displacement, and on the volume products. Such a mechanical model is investigated introducing primarily the dual state variables by means of the virtual work principle. The constitutive relations between dual variables are introduced defining a proper, convex, potential energy. It is proved that the solution of the elastic problem corresponds to a global minimum of the potential energy functional. Mo…
Analytic first derivatives for a spin-adapted open-shell coupled cluster theory: Evaluation of first-order electrical properties
2014
An analytic scheme is presented for the evaluation of first derivatives of the energy for a unitary group based spin-adapted coupled cluster (CC) theory, namely, the combinatoric open-shell CC (COSCC) approach within the singles and doubles approximation. The widely used Lagrange multiplier approach is employed for the derivation of an analytical expression for the first derivative of the energy, which in combination with the well-established density-matrix formulation, is used for the computation of first-order electrical properties. Derivations of the spin-adapted lambda equations for determining the Lagrange multipliers and the expressions for the spin-free effective density matrices for…
Residuenabschätzung für Polynom-Nullstellen mittels Lagrange-Interpolation
1970
If, for each zero of a polynomial, an approximation is known, estimates for the errors of these approximations are given, based on the evaluation of the polynomial at these points. The procedure can be carried over to the case of multiple roots and root clusters using derivatives up to the orderk - 1, wherek is the multiplicity of the cluster.
Constraint qualifications and Lagrange multipliers in nondifferentiable programming problems
1994
In this paper, we present several constraint qualifications, and we show that these conditions guarantee the nonvacuity and the boundedness of the Lagrange multiplier sets for general nondifferentiable programming problems. The relationships with various constraint qualifications are investigated.
Indefinite integrals of Lommel functions from an inhomogeneous Euler–Lagrange method
2015
ABSTRACTA method given recently for deriving indefinite integrals of special functions which satisfy homogeneous second-order linear differential equations has been extended to include functions which obey inhomogeneous equations. The extended method has been applied to derive indefinite integrals for the Lommel functions, which obey an inhomogeneous Bessel equation. The method allows integrals to be derived for the inhomogeneous equation in a manner which closely parallels the homogeneous case, and a number of new Lommel integrals are derived which have well-known Bessel analogues. Results will be presented separately for other special functions which obey inhomogeneous second-order linear…
Weighted Extrapolation Techniques for Finite Difference Methods on Complex Domains with Cartesian Meshes
2016
The design of numerical boundary conditions in high order schemes is a challenging problem that has been tackled in different ways depending on the nature of the problem and the scheme used to solve it numerically. In this paper we propose a technique to extrapolate the information from the computational domain to ghost cells for schemes with structured Cartesian Meshes on complex domains. This technique is based on the application of Lagrange interpolation with weighted filters for the detection of discontinuities that permits a data dependent extrapolation, with high order at smooth regions and essentially non oscillatory properties near discontinuities. This paper is a sequel of Baeza et…
Métodos multiescala y aplicaciones: Esquemas de subdivisión
2015
Los esquemas de subdivisión se basan en un proceso de refinamiento recursivo de un conjunto de datos iniciales. Dado un conjunto de datos iniciales, los nuevos datos se generan siguiendo un conjunto de reglas establecidas, produciendo un conjunto más denso de puntos. El estudio de la conservación de algunas propiedades especificas que se presentan en el conjunto de datos iniciales es crucial para algunas aplicaciones, por ejemplo las propiedades de convergencia y suavidad son necesarias para que el esquema de subdivisión se pueda utilizar para la compresión o reconstrucción de imágenes, el diseño de curvas y superficies, aproximación de funciones arbitrarias, etc. Algunos esquemas de subdiv…
