Large‐scale set partitioning problems: Some real‐world instances hide a beneficial structure

2006

In this paper we consider large‐scale set partitioning problems. Our main purpose is to show that real‐world set partitioning problems originating from the container‐trucking industry are easier to tackle in respect to general ones. We show such different behavior through computational experiments: in particular, we have applied both a heuristic algorithm and some exact solution approaches to real‐world instances as well as to benchmark instances from Beasley OR‐library. Moreover, in order to gain an insight into the structure of the real‐world instances, we have performed and evaluated various instance perturbations.

Interior Eigenvalue Density of Jordan Matrices with Random Perturbations

2017

International audience; We study the eigenvalue distribution of a large Jordan block subject to a small random Gaussian perturbation. A result by E. B. Davies and M. Hager shows that as the dimension of the matrix gets large, with probability close to 1, most of the eigenvalues are close to a circle.We study the expected eigenvalue density of the perturbed Jordan block in the interior of that circle and give a precise asymptotic description.; Nous étudions la distribution de valeurs propres d’un grand bloc de Jordan soumis à une petite perturbation gaussienne aléatoire. Un résultat de E. B. Davies et M. Hager montre que quand la dimension de la matrice devient grande, alors avec probabilité…

BIBO Stability Analysis for Delay Switched Systems with Nonlinear Perturbation

2013

Published version of a paper from the journal:Abstract and Applied Analysis. Also available from Hindawi:http://dx.doi.org/10.1155/2013/738653 The problem of bounded-input bounded-output ( BIBO) stability is investigated for a class of delay switched systems with mixed time-varying discrete and constant neutral delays and nonlinear perturbation. Based on the Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional theory, new BIBO stabilization criteria are established in terms of delay-dependent linear matrix inequalities. The numerical simulation is carried out to demonstrate the effectiveness of the results obtained in the paper.

Adaptive H ∞ synchronization of master-slave systems with mixed time-varying delays and nonlinear perturbations: An LMI approach

2011

Published version of an article in the journal: International Journal of Automation and Computing. Also available from the publisher on SpringerLink: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s11633-011-0595-z This paper proposes an adaptive synchronization problem for the master and slave structure of linear systems with nonlinear perturbations and mixed time-varying delays comprising different discrete and distributed time delays. Using an appropriate Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional, some delay-dependent sufficient conditions and an adaptation law including the master-slave parameters are established for designing a delayed synchronization law in terms of linear matrix inequalities(LMIs). The time-varying…

Some perturbation results for quasi-bases and other sequences of vectors

2023

We discuss some perturbation results concerning certain pairs of sequences of vectors in a Hilbert space $\Hil$ and producing new sequences which share, with the original ones, { reconstruction formulas on a dense subspace of $\Hil$ or on the whole space}. We also propose some preliminary results on the same issue, but in a distributional settings.

Slow-roll corrections in multi-field inflation: a separate universes approach

2018

In view of cosmological parameters being measured to ever higher precision, theoretical predictions must also be computed to an equally high level of precision. In this work we investigate the impact on such predictions of relaxing some of the simplifying assumptions often used in these computations. In particular, we investigate the importance of slow-roll corrections in the computation of multi-field inflation observables, such as the amplitude of the scalar spectrum $P_\zeta$, its spectral tilt $n_s$, the tensor-to-scalar ratio $r$ and the non-Gaussianity parameter $f_{NL}$. To this end we use the separate universes approach and $\delta N$ formalism, which allows us to consider slow-roll…

On Commuting Quasi-Nilpotent Operators that are Injective

2022

Banach space operators that commute with an injective quasi-nilpotent operator, 11 such as the Volterra operator, inherit spectral and Fredholm properties, relating in 12 particular to the Weyl spectra.

Adaptive synchronization of master-slave systems with mixed neutral and discrete time-delays and nonlinear perturbations

2011

This paper investigates the delay-dependent adaptive synchronization problem of the master and slave structure of linear systems with both constant neutral and time-varying discrete time-delays and nonlinear perturbations based on the Barbalat lemma and matching conditions. An adaption law which includes the master-slave parameters is obtained by using the Lyapunov functional method and inequality techniques to synchronize the master-slave systems without the knowledge of upper bounds of perturbation terms. Particularly, it is shown that the synchronization speed can be controlled by adjusting the update gain of the synchronization signal. A numerical example has been given to show the effe…

A new testing device for the role of the trunk in force production and in balance control in disabled sitting athletes

2017

In cross-country sit-skiing all athletes compete in a sitting position, but some of them have the ability to control their trunk more than others. The trunk plays an essential role in two performance determinants: propulsion generation and balance maintenance. The aim of the study is to design a new testing device assessing athletes’ responses to these propulsion determinants. The new device was composed of a seat surrounded by a sensorized aluminum frame. To assess propulsion generation, two force sensors were mounted in the anterior and posterior side of the frame, while two force sensors were embedded in two ropes elongated from the top of the frame. To measure trunk control, the device …
