On a Nonsmooth Vector Optimization Problem with Generalized Cone Invexity

By using Clarke’s generalized gradients we consider a nonsmooth vector optimization problem with cone constraints and introduce some generalized cone-invex functions called K-α-generalized invex, K-α-nonsmooth invex, and other related functions. Several sufficient optimality conditions and Mond-Weir type weak and converse duality results are obtained for this problem under the assumptions of the generalized cone invexity. The results presented in this paper generalize and extend the previously known results in this area

Invexity and a Class of Constrained Optimization Problems in Hilbert Spaces

In this paper the notion of invexity has been introduced in Hilbert spaces. A class of constrained optimization problems has been proposed under the assumption of invexity. Some of the algebraic properties leading to the optimality criterion of such class of problems has been studied

Generalized Stampacchia Vector Variational-Like Inequalities and Vector Optimization Problems Involving Set-Valued Maps

We first obtain that subdifferentials of set-valued mapping from finite-dimensional spaces to finite-dimensional possess certain relaxed compactness. Then using this weak compactness, we establish gap functions for generalized Stampacchia vector variational-like inequalities which are defined by means of subdifferentials. Finally, an existence result of generalized weakly efficient solutions for vector optimization problem involving a subdifferentiable and preinvex set-valued mapping is established by exploiting the existence of a solution for the weak formulation of the generalized Stampacchia vector variational-like inequality via a Fan-KKM lemma

Advances in Optimization and Nonlinear Analysis

The present book focuses on that part of calculus of variations, optimization, nonlinear analysis and related applications which combines tools and methods from partial differential equations with geometrical techniques. More precisely, this work is devoted to nonlinear problems coming from different areas, with particular reference to those introducing new techniques capable of solving a wide range of problems. The book is a valuable guide for researchers, engineers and students in the field of mathematics, operations research, optimal control science, artificial intelligence, management science and economics

Fractional Calculus - Theory and Applications

In recent years, fractional calculus has led to tremendous progress in various areas of science and mathematics. New definitions of fractional derivatives and integrals have been uncovered, extending their classical definitions in various ways. Moreover, rigorous analysis of the functional properties of these new definitions has been an active area of research in mathematical analysis. Systems considering differential equations with fractional-order operators have been investigated thoroughly from analytical and numerical points of view, and potential applications have been proposed for use in sciences and in technology. The purpose of this Special Issue is to serve as a specialized forum for the dissemination of recent progress in the theory of fractional calculus and its potential applications

On Adams Completion and Cocompletion

The minimal model of a 1-connected differential graded Lie algebra is obtained as the Adams cocompletion of the differential graded Lie algebra with respect to a chosen set of morphisms in the category of 1-connected differential graded Lie algebras (d.g.l.a.’s)over the field of rationals and d.g.l.a.-homomorphisms. The Postnikov-like approximation of a module is obtained as the Adams completions of the space with the help of a suitable set of morphisms in the category of some specific modules and module homomorphisms. The Cartan-Whitehead decomposition of topological G-module is obtained as the Adams cocompletion of the space with respect to suitable sets of morphisms. Postnikov-like approximation is obtained for a topological G-module, in terms of Adams completion with respect to a suitable sets of morphisms, using cohomology theory of topological G-modules.The ring of fractions of the algebra of all bounded linear operators on a separable infinite dimensional Banach space is isomorphic to the Adams completion of the algebra with respect to a carefully chosen set of morphisms in the category of separable infinite dimensional Banach spaces and bounded linear norm preserving operators of norms at most 1. The nth tensor algebra and symmetric algebra are each isomorphic to the Adams completions of the algebras. The exterior algebra and Clifford algebra are each isomorphic to the Adams completions of the algebra with respect to a chosen set of morphisms in the category of modules and module homomorphisms
