Relaxed Stability Criteria for Time-Delay Systems:A Novel Quadratic Function Convex Approximation Approach

This paper develops a quadratic function convex approximation approach to deal with the negative definite problem of the quadratic function induced by stability analysis of linear systems with time-varying delays.By introducing two adjustable parameters and two free variables,a novel convex function greater than or equal to the quadratic function is constructed,regardless of the sign of the coefficient in the quadratic term.The developed lemma can also be degenerated into the existing quadratic function negative-determination(QFND)lemma and relaxed QFND lemma respectively,by setting two adjustable parameters and two free variables as some particular values.Moreover,for a linear system with time-varying delays,a relaxed stability criterion is established via our developed lemma,together with the quivalent reciprocal combination technique and the Bessel-Legendre inequality.As a result,the conservatism can be reduced via the proposed approach in the context of constructing Lyapunov-Krasovskii functionals for the stability analysis of linear time-varying delay systems.Finally,the superiority of our results is illustrated through three numerical examples.

Strongly Generalized Convex Fuzzy-Valued Function and Its Application in Fuzzy Optimization

Based on the ordering of fuzzy numbers proposed by Goetschel and Voxman,the representations and some properties of strongly preinvex fuzzy-valued function are defined and obtained, several new concepts of strongly monotonicities fuzzy functions are introduced, the relationship among the strongly preinvex, strongly invex and monotonicities under some suitable and appropriate conditions is established and a necessary condition for strongly pseudoinvex functions is given. As an application, the conditions of local optimal solution and global optimal solution in the mathematical programming problem are discussed.

Sub-Differential Characterizations of Non-Smooth Lower Semi-Continuous Pseudo-Convex Functions on Real Banach Spaces

In this paper, we characterize lower semi-continuous pseudo-convex functions f : X → R ∪ {+ ∞} on convex subset of real Banach spaces K ⊂ X with respect to the pseudo-monotonicity of its Clarke-Rockafellar Sub-differential. We extend the results on the characterizations of non-smooth convex functions f : X → R ∪ {+ ∞} on convex subset of real Banach spaces K ⊂ X with respect to the monotonicity of its sub-differentials to the lower semi-continuous pseudo-convex functions on real Banach spaces.

APPROXIMATION ANALYSES FOR FUZZY VALUED FUNCTIONS IN L_1(μ)-NORM BY REGULAR FUZZY NEURAL NETWORKS

By defining fuzzy valued simple functions and giving L1(μ) approximations of fuzzy valued integrably bounded functions by such simple functions, the paper analyses by L1(μ)-norm the approximation capability of four-layer feedforward regular fuzzy neural networks to the fuzzy valued integrably bounded function F : Rn → FcO(R). That is, if the transfer functionσ: R→R is non-polynomial and integrable function on each finite interval, F may be innorm approximated by fuzzy valued functions defined as to anydegree of accuracy. Finally some real examples demonstrate the conclusions.

Distributed Stochastic Optimization with Compression for Non-Strongly Convex Objectives

We are investigating the distributed optimization problem,where a network of nodes works together to minimize a global objective that is a finite sum of their stored local functions.Since nodes exchange optimization parameters through the wireless network,large-scale training models can create communication bottlenecks,resulting in slower training times.To address this issue,CHOCO-SGD was proposed,which allows compressing information with arbitrary precision without reducing the convergence rate for strongly convex objective functions.Nevertheless,most convex functions are not strongly convex(such as logistic regression or Lasso),which raises the question of whether this algorithm can be applied to non-strongly convex functions.In this paper,we provide the first theoretical analysis of the convergence rate of CHOCO-SGD on non-strongly convex objectives.We derive a sufficient condition,which limits the fidelity of compression,to guarantee convergence.Moreover,our analysis demonstrates that within the fidelity threshold,this algorithm can significantly reduce transmission burden while maintaining the same convergence rate order as its no-compression equivalent.Numerical experiments further validate the theoretical findings by demonstrating that CHOCO-SGD improves communication efficiency and keeps the same convergence rate order simultaneously.And experiments also show that the algorithm fails to converge with low compression fidelity and in time-varying topologies.Overall,our study offers valuable insights into the potential applicability of CHOCO-SGD for non-strongly convex objectives.Additionally,we provide practical guidelines for researchers seeking to utilize this algorithm in real-world scenarios.

THE FEKETE-SZEG PROBLEM FOR CLOSE-TO-CONVEX FUNCTIONS WITH RESPECT TO THE KOEBE FUNCTION

An analytic function f in the unit disk D ：= {z ∈ C ： ｜z｜ 〈 1}, standardly normalized, is called close-to-convex with respect to the Koebe function k（z） ：= z/（1-z）2, z ∈ D, if there exists δ ∈ （-π/2,π/2） such that Re {eiδ（1-z）2f′（z）} 〉 0, z ∈ D. For the class C（k） of all close-to-convex functions with respect to k, related to the class of functions convex in the positive direction of the imaginary axis, the Fekete-Szego problem is studied.
