Incremental multiple objective genetic algorithms
This paper presents a new genetic algorithm approach to multi-objective optimization problemsIncremental Multiple Objective Genetic Algorithms (IMOGA). Different from conventional MOGA methods, it takes each objective into consideration incrementally. The whole evolution is divided into as many phases as the number of objectives, and one more objective is considered in each phase. Each phase is composed of two stages: first, an independent population is evolved to optimize one specific objective; second, the better-performing individuals from the evolved single-objective population and the multi-objective population evolved in the last phase are joined together by the operation of integration. The resulting population then becomes an initial multi-objective population, to which a multi-objective evolution based on the incremented objective set is applied. The experiment results show that, in most problems, the performance of IMOGA is better than that of three other MOGAs, NSGA-II, SPEA and PAES. IMOGA can find more solutions during the same time span, and the quality of solutions is better
Transition from Tonks-Girardeau gas to super-Tonks-Girardeau gas as an exact many-body dynamics problem
We investigate transition of a one-dimensional interacting Bose gas from a
strongly repulsive regime to a strongly attractive regime, where a stable
highly excited state known as the super Tonks-Girardeau gas was experimentally
realized very recently. By solving exact dynamics of the integrable
Lieb-Liniger Bose gas, we demonstrate that such an excited gas state can be a
very stable dynamic state. Furthermore we calculate the breathing mode of the
super Tonks-Girardeau gas which is found to be in good agreement with
experimental observation. Our results show that the highly excited super
Tonks-Girardeau gas phase can be well understood from the fundamental theory of
the solvable Bose gas.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figures, version to appear in Phys. Rev. A as a Rapid
