Solving DC programs with a polyhedral component utilizing a multiple objective linear programming solver

Year: 2016
Subjects: subject: Optimization and Control (math.OC)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: A class of non-convex optimization problems with DC objective function is studied, where DC stands for being representable as the difference $f=g-h$ of two convex functions $g$ and $h$. In particular, we deal with the special case where one of the two convex functions $g$ or $h$ is polyhedral. In case $g$ is polyhedral, we show that a solution of the DC program can be obtained from a solution of an associated polyhedral projection problem. In case $h$ is polyhedral, we prove that a solution of the DC program can be obtained by solving a polyhedral projection problem and finitely many convex programs. Since polyhedral projection is equivalent to multiple objective linear programming (MOLP), a MOLP solver (in the second case together with a convex programming solver) can be used to solve instances of DC programs with polyhedral component. Numerical examples are provided, among them an application to locational analysis.

description: Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide accounting for 7.4 million deaths. Cancer has become a major public health concern in Algeria. The aim of the present study was to estimate cancer incidence in Mascara Province based on the population-based cancer registry. We analyzed data from the cancer registry of Mascara covering all cancer cases diagnosed by all methods and included in the registry from 1st January 2000 to 31st December 2010. The results are presented as incidence rates of cases by site, sex, age, and crude rate. Age-standardized rates per 100,000 person-years (ASRs) were calculated, using the direct method of standardization to the world population. A total of 1875 cases of invasive cancer were recorded. The mean age of diagnosis for all cancers was 52.66 ± 0.5 in men and 59.18 ± 0.6 in women. The ASR for all cancers in females was 27.8 per 100,000, and that for males was 23.6 per 100,000. The most important finding of the present study was the high incidence of liver cancer among males and females in Mascara. Among females, breast cancer was the most frequently reported followed by Cervix uteri, liver and colon. The most frequent cancer types in males were lung, colon, esophagus and stomach and liver. Cancer incidence in Mascara province was lower than that reported in other national and regional registries. Findings of the present study revealed high incidence of liver cancer in the province, the highest in Algeria, suggesting high prevalence of risk factors.

description: Gespräche im Kindergarten über mathematische Phänomene haben noch keine lange Tradition. Erst mit der Annahme des neuen Volksschulgesetzes im Kanton Zürich, der Anerkennung des Kindergartens als Teil der Volksschule und der Umsetzung des dazu neu entwickelten Lehrplanes für die Kindergartenstufe im 2008, sind unter den sechs Bildungsbereichen neu Basiskompetenzen in mathematischen Erfahrungen beschrieben. Wie mit diesen veränderten Voraussetzungen umzugehen ist, ist auch heute noch ein fortwährender und suchender Prozess bei den Kindergartenlehrpersonen. Durch drei Workshops nahmen die Autorinnen Einfluss auf diesen Prozess und durchlebten ihrerseits Prozesse in Bezug auf ihren Berufsauftrag des Beratens von Kindergärtnerinnen. Aus Gruppengesprächen in den Workshops und den, von den Teilnehmerinnen geführten Projektjournalen wurden Daten gesammelt, die mit Hilfe einer kategorienbasierten Inhaltsanalyse ausgewertet und verglichen wurden. Die Ergebnisse geben Aufschluss über die, in Bezug auf Mathematik im Kindergarten, bewirkten Veränderungen und Neuorientierungen der Kindergartenlehrpersonen, die am Workshop teilnahmen. In einem zweiten Schritt wurden die Veränderungen und Neuorientierungen mit dem Fokus auf Gespräche über Mathematik untersucht und analysiert. Dabei konnte ein veränderter Umgang mit Fragen aufgezeigt werden und dass Sensibilisierung gewachsen war, die nun vermehrt erkannten mathematischen Phänomene im Kindergarten sprachlich zu erschliessen. Es kann ausgesagt werden, dass sich eine sensibilisierte Grundhaltung der Teilnehmerinnen zu mathematischen Phänomenen im Kindergartenalltag entwickelt hat.
The argument for justification of the complex Langevin method and the condition for correct convergence

description: The complex Langevin method is a promising approach to the complex-action problem based on a fictitious time evolution of complexified dynamical variables under the influence of a Gaussian noise. Although it is known to have a restricted range of applicability, the use of gauge cooling made it applicable to various interesting cases including finite density QCD in certain parameter regions. In this paper, we revisit the argument for justification of the method. In particular, we point out a subtlety in the use of time-evolved observables, which play a crucial role in the previous argument. This requires that the probability of the drift term should fall off exponentially or faster at large magnitude. We argue that this is actually a necessary and sufficient condition for the method to be justified. Using two simple examples, we show that our condition tells us clearly whether the results obtained by the method are trustable or not. We also discuss a new possibility for the gauge cooling, which can reduce the magnitude of the drift term directly.

description: This report is a published product of the ‘CRM-geothermal’ project - an EU-funded, Horizon Europe project which aims to develop a novel and potentially disruptive technology solution that can help satisfy the European needs for critical raw materials (CRM) combined with energy production. This report identifies sources of pre-existing data that underpin datasets and models for the sites being investigated in the ‘CRM-geothermal’ project. These sites are: High enthalpy volcanic geothermal areas - Reykjanes, Iceland; Tuzla, Turkey Low salinity water in fractured crystalline rock – Cornwall, UK Saline water in sedimentary basins – northern Germany Alkaline geothermal area – Olkaria, Kenya Metamorphosed flysch – Seferihisar, Turkey Information on each of these is reported in a separate chapter. This report provides a brief introduction to the study areas and identifies the broad types of data and datasets already generated. It does not discriminate between open-file and restricted information, just identifying what exists. There has been no attempt to interpret those data in the report – this will be part of other Work Packages within the project.

description: This paper investigated a policy-making debate in Chile, by examining the construction of the Netherlands as a new “reference society”. It focused on a reform agenda that aimed at a transformation of the neo-liberal school governance model. Based on the analysis of government documents, parliamentary debates, and media materials, the paper concludes that in addition to the consideration of PISA results the identification with the Netherlands served fundamentally as a political compromise solution.

description: The method of continuous unitary transformations (CUTs) is applied to the Anderson impurity and the Kondo model aiming at the systematic derivation of convergent e ective models. If CUTs are applied in a conventional way, diverging di erential equations occur. Similar to poor mans scaling the energy scale, below which the couplings diverge, corresponds to the Kondo temperature TK. We present a way to apply CUTs to the Kondo and to the Anderson impurity model so that no divergences occur but a converged e ective low-energy model is derived with small nite parameters at arbitrarily small energies. The ground state corresponds to a bound singlet with a binding energy given by the Kondo temperature TK.

description: Ras-Proteine sind molekulare Schalter, die in gesunden Zellen Wachstum und Teilung regulieren. Mutationen in Ras-Genen können zu einem dauerhaft angeschalteten Zustand führen und im ungünstigsten Fall zur Entstehung von Tumoren durch permanentes Zellwachstum beitragen. Da fast jeder dritte Tumor eine Mutation in einem der Ras-Proteine aufweist, befinden sich diese Proteine seit Jahren im Fokus der Wirkstoffentwicklung. Von herausragendem Interesse ist dabei die besonders aggressive K-Ras Isoform. Die Lokalisation von K-Ras in der Zelle ist eng mit der biologischen Schalterfunktion verknüpft, da K-Ras nur an der Plasmamembran aktiv die Signaltransduktion beeinflussen kann. Das Transport-Protein PDEδ reguliert die zelluläre Lokalisation von K-Ras und damit die K-Ras abhängige Signaltransduktion. Im Gegensatz zu K-Ras selbst weist PDEδ eine große hydrophobe Bindungstasche auf, die es erlaubt, mittels kleinen synthetischen Molekülen die Signaltransduktion von Ras zu beeinflussen. Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit konnten Inhibitoren der K-Ras-PDEδ-Wechselwirkung identifiziert und optimiert werden. Somit liefert diese Arbeit einen neuen Ansatz zur Behandlung von Ras-abhängigen Tumoren.

Gender Discourse in Selected European Fairy Tales: Masculinity Constructed upon the Objectification, Repudiation and Devaluation of Femininity
Creators: name: Bulmuş, Müjdat
Publisher: name: figshare
Year: 2023
Subjects: British and Irish literature

description: This thesis utilizes critical discourse analysis (CDA) to interrogate hegemonic masculinity as product of a dominant sociocultural discourse exposed through the selected European fairy tales; Hansel and Gretel, Fortunio and the Siren, The Pig Prince, The Wild Boar, and Little Snow White. The aim is to reveal that these pan-European fairy tales are sociocultural devices playing a significant part in reproduction and maintenance of a common androcentric gender discourse which normalizes masculine domination and legitimizes the objectification, devaluation, and repression of femininity in regional and global levels. This examination demonstrates that hegemonic norms of masculinity imposed in the selected fairy tales are contradictory since in order to exist they require the perpetuation of the same androcentric discourse and thus the representation of women. As might be expected, when the infrastructure of this androcentric discourse is interrogated and decentered, the hegemonic masculinity also falls into an existential crisis. The “masculinity crisis” noised around in Western societies today, is due to this preexisting ontological insecurity for it is no longer possible to discursively limit women into androcentric representation of woman.

description: In this work, the ability to distinguish digraphs from the output response of some observing agents in a multi-agent network under the agreement protocol has been studied. Given a fixed observation point, it is desired to find sufficient graphical conditions under which the failure of a set of edges in the network information flow digraph is distinguishable from another set. When the latter is empty, this corresponds to the detectability of the former link set given the response of the observing agent. In developing the results, a powerful extension of the all-minors matrix tree theorem in algebraic graph theory is proved which relates the minors of the transformed Laplacian of a directed graph to the number and length of the shortest paths between its vertices. The results reveal an intricate relationship between the ability to distinguish the responses of a healthy and a faulty multi-agent network and the inter-nodal paths in their information flow digraphs. The results have direct implications for the operation and design of multi-agent systems subject to multiple link losses. Simulations and examples are presented to illustrate the analytic findings.

description: We test the holographic relation between the vacuum expectation values of gauge invariant operators in ${\cal N} = 6$ ${\rm U}_k(N)\times {\rm U}_{-k}(N)$ mass-deformed ABJM theory and the LLM geometries with $\mathbb{Z}_k$ orbifold in 11-dimensional supergravity. To do that, we apply the Kaluza-Klein reduction to construct a 4-dimensional gravity theory and implement the holographic renormalization procedure. We obtain an exact holographic relation for the vacuum expectation values of the chiral primary operator with conformal dimension $Δ= 1$, which is given by $\langle {\cal O}^{(Δ=1)}\rangle= N^{\frac32} \, f_{(Δ=1)}$, for large $N$ and $k=1$. Here factor $f_{(Δ)}$ is independent of $N$. Our results involve infinite number of exact dual relations for all possible supersymmetric Higgs vacua and so provide a nontrivial test of gauge/gravity duality away from the conformal fixed point. We also extend our results to the case of $k\ne 1$ for LLM geometries represented by rectangular-shaped Young-diagrams.

description: As shown by theoretical and experimental results in this thesis, a carefully designed UV-IMS[PID] coupling with oa-TOFMS was successfully self set up. It offers high transmission, simple spectrum, high speed and it is able to record the whole mass spectrum quasi simultaneously. These features make it attractive to identify ions, fragments or ion clusters in IMS and to conduct high-throughput molecular analysis of large libraries for compound confirmation and purity assessment. By simulation with SIMION v. 7.0 it was proved that the configuration of the three stage differential pump system and the Einzel lens was suitable for an orthogonal design of an interface between atmospheric pressure and the TOFMS. The pinhole interface system to the UV-IMS [PID]-TOF was characterized by studying a two and a three stage interface. They are optimized and proved to be able to identify ions that has been ionized in IMS.This device has been proved to have unique benefits for volatile organic compounds analysis. The detection limits are in the range of 0.8 µg/L for acetone, 8.6 µg/L for ethanol and 17.2 µg/L for benzene with direct permeation sampling. The instrument has a dynamic range of about 3 decades for all detected compounds. A wide range of applications including chemical weapon simulation substances detection as well as fungal analysis were achieved with this device. It yields simple spectra that facilitate analysis. Compared the results of TOF spectra with UV-IMS spectra, most VOCs appearing in UV-IMS are monomer or protonated monomer ions. For the selected ketones from acetone to nonanone, the most abundant ions are protonated molecular ions and beginning from hexanone, the fragmentation is evident and can be detected in IMS. In the case of selected alcohols, not all of them have base peak corresponding to protonated molecule ions. Some of them such as 3-methyl-2-butanol and 2-hexanol the fragment ion are most abundant. These two groups of compounds all have obvious water adducts peaks because of high proton affinities. For aromatic substances the major ion is the molecular ion.

description: Tensions between several cosmic observations were found recently, such as the inconsistent values of $H_{0}$ (or $σ_{8}$) were indicated by the different cosmic observations. Introducing the massive neutrinos in $Λ$CDM could potentially solve the tensions. Viable $f(R)$ gravity producing $Λ$CDM background expansion with massive neutrinos is investigated in this paper. We fit the current observational data: Planck-2015 CMB, RSD, BAO and SNIa to constrain the mass of neutrinos in viable $f(R)$ theory. The constraint results at 95\% confidence level are: $Σm_ν<0.202$ eV for the active neutrino case, $m_{ν, sterile}^{eff}<0.757$ eV with $N_{eff}<3.22$ for the sterile neutrino case. For the effects by the mass of neutrinos, the constraint results on model parameter at 95\% confidence level become $f_{R0}\times 10^{-6}> -1.89$ and $f_{R0}\times 10^{-6}> -2.02$ for two cases, respectively. It is also shown that the fitting values of several parameters much depend on the neutrino properties, such as the cold dark matter density, the cosmological quantities at matter-radiation equality, the neutrino density and the fraction of baryonic mass in helium. At last, the constraint result shows that the tension between direct and CMB measurements of $H_0$ gets slightly weaker in the viable $f(R)$ model than that in the base $Λ$CDM model.

Quantized Brans Dicke Theory: Phase Transition and Strong Coupling (Large $ω$) Limit & General Relativity

description: We show that Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) geometry with flat spatial section in quantized (Wheeler deWitt quantization) Brans Dicke (BD) theory reveals a rich phase structure owing to anomalous breaking of a classical symmetry, which maps the scale factor $a\mapstoλa$ for some constant $λ$. In the weak coupling ($ω$) limit, the theory goes from a symmetry preserving phase to a broken phase. The existence of phase boundary is an obstruction to another classical symmetry [arXiv:gr-qc/9902083] (which relates two BD theory with different coupling) admitted by BD theory with scale invariant matter content i.e $T^μ{}_μ=0$. Classically, this prohibits the BD theory to reduce to General Relativity (GR) for scale invariant matter content. We show that strong coupling limit of BD and GR both preserves the symmetry involving scale factor. We also show that with a scale invariant matter content (radiation i.e $P=\frac{1}{3}ρ$), the quantized BD theory does reduce to GR as $ω\rightarrow\infty$, which is in sharp contrast to classical behavior. This is a first known illustration of a scenario, where quantized BD theory provides example of anomalous symmetry breaking and resulting binary phase structure. We make a conjecture regarding strong coupling limit of BD theory in generic scenario.

description: A land reserve program is one instrument for achieving pro- duction adjustment. But the results of past programs have been less than expected because of "slippage." This term refers to the proportion of acreage put into a reserve for which there is no corresponding reduction in production of the crops being controlled. Slippage coefficients in land reserve programs during 1956-73 usually ranged between 0.4 and 0.5, implying a program efficiency rate of only 50-60 percent in reducing acreage. Acreage put into land reserve also tends to be less productive than acreage being cropped, thus further reducing program production abatement. A land reserve program which would link base acreage to the previous year's crop acreage is discussed. Land reserve acres would be required to come from the land actually used for production of the controlled crop in the previous year. One problem of such a plan would be that income supplements tied to annually updated bases might be an incentive for producers not to participate in the program for a year to establish a large base. The probability of this response would be decreased if income supplements were variable annually.

description: Despite widespread calls for the incorporation of mathematical modeling into the undergraduate biology curriculum, there is lack of a common understanding around the definition of modeling, which inhibits progress. In this paper, we extend the "Rule of Four," initially used in calculus reform efforts, to a framework for models and modeling that is inclusive of varying disciplinary definitions of each. This unifying framework allows us to both build on strengths that each discipline and its students bring, but also identify gaps in modeling activities practiced by each discipline. We also discuss benefits to student learning and interdisciplinary collaboration.

description: Excerpts from the paper: The Southwest Irrigated Cotton (SWIC) region covers parts of three states. It encompasses four counties in southeastern Arizona, ten counties in southern New Mexico, and thirteen counties in Far West Texas. The crop producing areas, and therefore the cotton gins, warehouses and marketing organizations, are scattered throughout this vast region, and tend to be located in the valleys where cotton is grown. The wide spread between production areas and market facilities across this vast region creates many problems with respect to handling and the movement of cotton to central markets or to mill points. The cotton gins are located mostly in the irrigated valleys where there is a concentration of production. In most cases, only one gin serves a given production area or community. Consequently, there is less competition among gins in the SWIC region than in most other areas across the Cotton Belt. The charge for ginning and wrapping cotton amounted to about $26.00 per bale in 1973, and $35.00 in 1975. Ginning volume is relatively low in the SWIC region, averaging less than 2,000 bales per gin in 1975. The capacity of saw gins averages about ten bales per hour. None of the gins have mechanical samplers or universal density presses, but several gins have the older standard density presses. The Southwestern Irrigated Cotton Growers Association (SWIG), a grower cooperative, is the principal market outlet for cotton in the SWIC region. Other outlets include local independent buyers and beltwide merchants who purchase cotton for the domestic and export markets. Major structural changes are occurring in the ginning, warehousing, oilseed processing, and merchandising sectors as well as in the production sector of the cotton industry in the SWIC region. Adjustment in some areas such as the Trans-Pecos has been more severe than in other areas. The continuing decline in production all across the region is impacting sharply on cotton ginners, handlers, and merchandising firms as well as cotton producers and suppliers of farm inputs. The changes that are occurring in these sectors of the industry raise important questions about the future of the cotton industry in the SWIC region.

description: Die vorliegende Arbeit befasst sich mit dem Thema Händigkeit und dem unsicheren oder wechselnden Handgebrauch bei Kindern von 4 bis 8 Jahren. Folgende Fragestellungen werden dabei verfolgt:
 - Welche genetischen Faktoren und Umweltfaktoren beeinflussen die Handpräferenz und die Handleistung?
 - Gibt es einen Zusammenhang zwischen wechselndem Handgebrauch und Linkshändigkeit und Entwicklungsauffälligkeiten?
 - Wie wird das Thema Händigkeit von Lehrpersonen und Fachpersonen wahrgenommen und wie ist der Wissensstand über «Händigkeit» und «wechselnden Handgebrauch»?
 - Welche Interventionsmöglichkeiten gibt es bei Kindern mit «wechselndem Handgebrauch»?
 Aufgrund der Fragestellungen werden die theoretisch relevanten Inhalte erklärt, anschliessend die Auswertung einer Online-Umfrage (Ist-Analyse) dargelegt, welche durchgeführt wurde. Die Umfrage dient dazu, herauszufinden wie der Wissensstand von Lehrpersonen und Heilpädagogen und Heilpädagoginnen zum Thema Händigkeit und wechselnder Handgebrauch ist. Als Ergebnis der Arbeit liegt eine Broschüre vor, welche die wichtigsten Inhalte zur Händigkeit und einem wechselnden Handgebrauch bei Kindern im Alter von 4-8 Jahren umfasst.

How smart does your profile image look? Estimating intelligence from social network profile images

description: Profile images on social networks are users' opportunity to present themselves and to affect how others judge them. We examine what Facebook images say about users' perceived and measured intelligence. 1,122 Facebook users completed a matrices intelligence test and shared their current Facebook profile image. Strangers also rated the images for perceived intelligence. We use automatically extracted image features to predict both measured and perceived intelligence. Intelligence estimation from images is a difficult task even for humans, but experimental results show that human accuracy can be equalled using computing methods. We report the image features that predict both measured and perceived intelligence, and highlight misleading features such as "smiling" and "wearing glasses" that are correlated with perceived but not measured intelligence. Our results give insights into inaccurate stereotyping from profile images and also have implications for privacy, especially since in most social networks profile images are public by default.

description: Within the framework of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model, we investigate the 1-loop effects of supersymmetric particles on the third-generation fermion-pair production at the ILC. Three sets of the SUSY parameters are proposed which are consistent with the observed Higgs mass, the muon g-2, the Dark Matter abundance and the decay branching ratio of B meson. We discuss on the possibility of discovering the signals consistent with SUSY as well as of experimentally distinguishing the proposed sets of SUSY parameters.

Computing the Action of Trigonometric and Hyperbolic Matrix Functions

description: We derive a new algorithm for computing the action $f(A)V$ of the cosine, sine, hyperbolic cosine, and hyperbolic sine of a matrix $A$ on a matrix $V$, without first computing $f(A)$. The algorithm can compute $\cos(A)V$ and $\sin(A)V$ simultaneously, and likewise for $\cosh(A)V$ and $\sinh(A)V$, and it uses only real arithmetic when $A$ is real. The algorithm exploits an existing algorithm \texttt{expmv} of Al-Mohy and Higham for $\mathrm{e}^AV$ and its underlying backward error analysis. Our experiments show that the new algorithm performs in a forward stable manner and is generally significantly faster than alternatives based on multiple invocations of \texttt{expmv} through formulas such as $\cos(A)V = (\mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{i}A}V + \mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{-i}A}V)/2$.
