A self-adaptive trust region method for the extended linear complementarity problems

Zhensheng Yu, Qiang Li (2009)

Applications of Mathematics

By using some NCP functions, we reformulate the extended linear complementarity problem as a nonsmooth equation. Then we propose a self-adaptive trust region algorithm for solving this nonsmooth equation. The novelty of this method is that the trust region radius is controlled by the objective function value which can be adjusted automatically according to the algorithm. The global convergence is obtained under mild conditions and the local superlinear convergence rate is also established under...

A smoothing Newton method for the second-order cone complementarity problem

Jingyong Tang, Guoping He, Li Dong, Liang Fang, Jinchuan Zhou (2013)

Applications of Mathematics

In this paper we introduce a new smoothing function and show that it is coercive under suitable assumptions. Based on this new function, we propose a smoothing Newton method for solving the second-order cone complementarity problem (SOCCP). The proposed algorithm solves only one linear system of equations and performs only one line search at each iteration. It is shown that any accumulation point of the iteration sequence generated by the proposed algorithm is a solution to the SOCCP. Furthermore,...

A thermodynamically motivated optimization algorithm: Circular wheel balance optimization

Jozef Masarik (1985)

Aplikace matematiky

The author investigates a Monte Carlo algorithm for finding suboptimal solutions for a wide clase of complicated optimization problems characterized by a large combinatorial complexity. This algorithm was applied to one specific problem: circular wheel balance optimization. The slow increase of the effort along with the increasing size of the problems and the generality of the method promise that the thermodynamically motivated optimization will become a very universal and effective optimization...

About a special class of nonconvex optimization problems

Libuše Grygarová (1990)

Aplikace matematiky

The article deals with certain nonconvex optimization problem which have features analogous to those of the linear optimization problems. We can find their absolute extrema and the set all optimal points of such nonconvex optimization problem represents the closure of a face of a spherical polyhedron which is its feasible set.

About the relation between some optimality conditions

Jan Palata (1984)

Aplikace matematiky

The relation between the general optimality conditions in terms of contact cones and the Kuhn-Tucker conditions in the special case of pseudo-convex and quasi-convex functions and their consequence to Lagrangian multipliers are given.

Airspace sectorization with constraints

Huy Trandac, Philippe Baptiste, Vu Duong (2005)

RAIRO - Operations Research - Recherche Opérationnelle

We consider the Airspace Sectorization Problem (ASP) in which airspace has to be partitioned into a given number of sectors, each of which being assigned to a team of air traffic controllers. The objective is to minimize the coordination workload between adjacent sectors while balancing the total workload of controllers. Many specific constraints, including both geometrical and aircraft related constraints are taken into account. The problem is solved in a constraint programming framework. Experimental...
