Quadratic 0–1 programming: Tightening linear or quadratic convex reformulation by use of relaxations

Alain Billionnet, Sourour Elloumi, Marie-Christine Plateau (2008)

RAIRO - Operations Research

Many combinatorial optimization problems can be formulated as the minimization of a 0–1 quadratic function subject to linear constraints. In this paper, we are interested in the exact solution of this problem through a two-phase general scheme. The first phase consists in reformulating the initial problem either into a compact mixed integer linear program or into a 0–1 quadratic convex program. The second phase simply consists in submitting the reformulated problem to a standard solver. The efficiency...

Quantitative concentration inequalities on sample path space for mean field interaction

François Bolley (2010)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

We consider the approximation of a mean field stochastic process by a large interacting particle system. We derive non-asymptotic large deviation bounds measuring the concentration of the empirical measure of the paths of the particles around the law of the process. The method is based on a coupling argument, strong integrability estimates on the paths in Hölder norm, and a general concentration result for the empirical measure of identically distributed independent paths.

Quantum optimal control using the adjoint method

Alfio Borzì (2012)

Nanoscale Systems: Mathematical Modeling, Theory and Applications

Control of quantum systems is central in a variety of present and perspective applications ranging from quantum optics and quantum chemistry to semiconductor nanostructures, including the emerging fields of quantum computation and quantum communication. In this paper, a review of recent developments in the field of optimal control of quantum systems is given with a focus on adjoint methods and their numerical implementation. In addition, the issues of exact controllability and optimal control are...
