A two-stage stochastic optimization model for a gas sale retailer

F. Maggioni, Maria Teresa Vespucci, E. Allevi, Marida Bertocchi, M. Innorta (2008)

Kybernetika

The paper deals with a new stochastic optimization model, named OMoGaS–SV (Optimization Modelling for Gas Seller–Stochastic Version), to assist companies dealing with gas retail commercialization. Stochasticity is due to the dependence of consumptions on temperature uncertainty. Due to nonlinearities present in the objective function, the model can be classified as an NLP mixed integer model, with the profit function depending on the number of contracts with the final consumers, the typology of...

A variational model for urban planning with traffic congestion

Guillaume Carlier, Filippo Santambrogio (2005)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We propose a variational model to describe the optimal distributions of residents and services in an urban area. The functional to be minimized involves an overall transportation cost taking into account congestion effects and two aditional terms which penalize concentration of residents and dispersion of services. We study regularity properties of the minimizers and treat in details some examples.

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 stability of risk-seeking optimal stopping

Raúl Montes-de-Oca, Elena Zaitseva (2014)

Kybernetika

We offer the quantitative estimation of stability of risk-sensitive cost optimization in the problem of optimal stopping of Markov chain on a Borel space X . It is supposed that the transition probability p ( · | x ) , x ∈ X is approximated by the transition probability p ˜ ( · | x ) , x ∈ X , and that the stopping rule f ˜ * , which is optimal for the process with the transition probability p ˜ is applied to the process with the transition probability p . We give an upper bound (expressed in term of the total variation distance: sup x ∈ X ∥ p ( · | x ) - p ˜ ( · | x ) ∥ ) for...

About the choice of the variable to unassign in a decision repair algorithm

Cédric Pralet, Gérard Verfaillie (2005)

RAIRO - Operations Research - Recherche Opérationnelle

The decision repair algorithm (Jussien and Lhomme, Artificial Intelligence 139 (2002) 21–45), which has been designed to solve constraint satisfaction problems (CSP), can be seen, either (i) as an extension of the classical depth first tree search algorithm with the introduction of a free choice of the variable to which to backtrack in case of inconsistency, or (ii) as a local search algorithm in the space of the partial consistent variable assignments. or (iii) as a hybridisation between local...

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.
