This book was released on 2006-04-28 with total page 542 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Optimization plainly dominates the design, planning, operation, and c- trol of engineering systems. This is a book on optimization that considers particular cases of optimization problems, those with a decomposable str- ture that can be advantageously exploited. Those decomposable optimization problems are ubiquitous in engineering and science applications. The book considers problems with both complicating constraints and complicating va- ables, and analyzes linear and nonlinear problems, with and without in- ger variables. The decomposition techniques analyzed include Dantzig-Wolfe, Benders, Lagrangian relaxation, Augmented Lagrangian decomposition, and others. Heuristic techniques are also considered. Additionally, a comprehensive sensitivity analysis for characterizing the solution of optimization problems is carried out. This material is particularly novel and of high practical interest. This book is built based on many clarifying, illustrative, and compu- tional examples, which facilitate the learning procedure. For the sake of cl- ity, theoretical concepts and computational algorithms are assembled based on these examples. The results are simplicity, clarity, and easy-learning. We feel that this book is needed by the engineering community that has to tackle complex optimization problems, particularly by practitioners and researchersinEngineering,OperationsResearch,andAppliedEconomics.The descriptions of most decomposition techniques are available only in complex and specialized mathematical journals, di?cult to understand by engineers. A book describing a wide range of decomposition techniques, emphasizing problem-solving, and appropriately blending theory and application, was not previously available.

Download or read book New Approaches in Spectral Decomposition written by Ridgley Lange and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1992 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aimed at a general mathematical audience, this book provides a careful exposition of developments in the theory of spectral decomposition. Bringing the reader from the basics up to the level of current research in the area at the time of writing, Lange and Wang present an accessible account of the techniques used in the theory and applications of decomposable operators and related classes of operators. The book begins with a discussion of criteria for decomposable and related types of operators, and an analysis that relates and distinguishes among them. Perturbation theory of decomposable and other operators, applications to classical Hilberty space operators, quasisimilarity, and a new class of weakly decomposable operators are also discussed. The book closes with an exposition of some classical theories on invariant subspaces for subdecomposable and hyponormal operators, and a presentation of the parallel spectral theory of commuting systems.

Download or read book Proof of the 1 Factorization and Hamilton Decomposition Conjectures written by Béla Csaba and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2016-10-05 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this paper the authors prove the following results (via a unified approach) for all sufficiently large n: (i) [1-factorization conjecture] Suppose that n is even and D≥2⌈n/4⌉−1. Then every D-regular graph G on n vertices has a decomposition into perfect matchings. Equivalently, χ′(G)=D. (ii) [Hamilton decomposition conjecture] Suppose that D≥⌊n/2⌋. Then every D-regular graph G on n vertices has a decomposition into Hamilton cycles and at most one perfect matching. (iii) [Optimal packings of Hamilton cycles] Suppose that G is a graph on n vertices with minimum degree δ≥n/2. Then G contains at least regeven(n,δ)/2≥(n−2)/8 edge-disjoint Hamilton cycles. Here regeven(n,δ) denotes the degree of the largest even-regular spanning subgraph one can guarantee in a graph on n vertices with minimum degree δ. (i) was first explicitly stated by Chetwynd and Hilton. (ii) and the special case δ=⌈n/2⌉ of (iii) answer questions of Nash-Williams from 1970. All of the above bounds are best possible.

Download or read book The Decomposition of Figures Into Smaller Parts written by Vladimir Grigorʹevich Bolti︠a︡nskiĭ and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1980 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In contrast to the vast literature on Euclidean geometry as a whole, little has been published on the relatively recent developments in the field of combinatorial geometry. Boltyanskii and Gohberg's book investigates this area, which has undergone particularly rapid growth in the last thirty years. By restricting themselves to two dimensions, the authors make the book uniquely accessible to interested high school students while maintaining a high level of rigor. They discuss a variety of problems on figures of constant width, convex figures, coverings, and illumination. The book offers a thorough exposition of the problem of cutting figures into smaller pieces. The central theorem gives the minimum number of pieces into which a figure can be divided so that all the pieces are of smaller diameter than the original figure. This theorem, which serves as a basis for the rest of the material, is proved for both the Euclidean plane and Minkowski's plane.

Download or read book On Sudakov s Type Decomposition of Transference Plans with Norm Costs written by Stefano Bianchini and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2018-02-23 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The authors consider the original strategy proposed by Sudakov for solving the Monge transportation problem with norm cost with , probability measures in and absolutely continuous w.r.t. . The key idea in this approach is to decompose (via disintegration of measures) the Kantorovich optimal transportation problem into a family of transportation problems in , where are disjoint regions such that the construction of an optimal map is simpler than in the original problem, and then to obtain by piecing together the maps . When the norm is strictly convex, the sets are a family of -dimensional segments determined by the Kantorovich potential called optimal rays, while the existence of the map is straightforward provided one can show that the disintegration of (and thus of ) on such segments is absolutely continuous w.r.t. the -dimensional Hausdorff measure. When the norm is not strictly convex, the main problems in this kind of approach are two: first, to identify a suitable family of regions on which the transport problem decomposes into simpler ones, and then to prove the existence of optimal maps. In this paper the authors show how these difficulties can be overcome, and that the original idea of Sudakov can be successfully implemented. The results yield a complete characterization of the Kantorovich optimal transportation problem, whose straightforward corollary is the solution of the Monge problem in each set and then in . The strategy is sufficiently powerful to be applied to other optimal transportation problems.
