EXISTENCE AND BLOW-UP BEHAVIOR OF CONSTRAINED MINIMIZERS FOR SCHRDINGER-POISSON-SLATER SYSTEM

In this article, we study constrained minimizers of the following variational problem ε（p）：={u∈H1 inf（R3）,｜｜u｜｜22=p} E（u）,ρ〉0,where E（u） is the SchrSdinger-Poisson-Slater （SPS） energy functional E（u）：1/2∫R3｜△u（x）｜2dx-1/4∫R3∫R3u2（y）u2（x）/｜x-y｜dydx-1/p∫R3｜u（x）∫pdx in R3,and p ∈ （2,6）. We prove the existence of minimizers for the cases 2 〈 p 〈10/3, p 〉 0, and P =10/3, 0 〈 p 〈 p＊, and show that e（ρ） = -∞ for the other cases, where p＊ = ｜｜φ｜｜22 and φ（x） is the unique （up to translations） positive radially symmetric solution of -△u ＋ u = u7/3 in R3. Moreover, when e（ρ＊） = -∞, the blow-up behavior of minimizers as p/p＊ is also analyzed rigorously.

Existence of a Sigh-Changing Solution Result for Logarithmic Schrödinger Equations with Weight Function

This paper is devoted to studying the existence of solutions for the following logarithmic Schrödinger problem: −div(a(x)∇u)+V(x)u=ulogu2+k(x)| u |q1−2u+h(x)| u |q2−2u, x∈ℝN.(1)We first prove that the corresponding functional I belongs to C1(HV1(ℝN),ℝ). Furthermore, by using the variational method, we prove the existence of a sigh-changing solution to problem (1).

Integral Global Minimization of Constrained Problems with Discontinuous Penalty Functions

A class of discontinuous penalty functions was proposed to solve constrained minimization problems with the integral approach to global optimization, m-mean value and v-variance optimality conditions of a constrained and penalized minimization problem were investigated. A nonsequential algorithm was proposed. Numerical examples were given to illustrate the effectiveness of the algorithm.

An accelerated augmented Lagrangian method for linearly constrained convex programming with the rate of convergence O(1/k^2)

In this paper, we propose and analyze an accelerated augmented Lagrangian method（denoted by AALM） for solving the linearly constrained convex programming. We show that the convergence rate of AALM is O（1/k^2） while the convergence rate of the classical augmented Lagrangian method（ALM） is O1 k. Numerical experiments on the linearly constrained 1-2minimization problem are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of AALM.

New simple exact penalty function for constrained minimization

By adding one variable to the equality- or inequality-constrained minimization problems, a new simple penalty function is proposed. It is proved to be exact in the sense that under mild assumptions, the local minimizers of this penalty function are precisely the local minimizers of the original problem, when the penalty parameter is sufficiently large.

A Note on Sharp Affine Poincaré-Sobolev Inequalities and Exact in Minimization of Zhang’s Energy on Bounded Variation and Exactness

As for the affine energy, Edir Junior and Ferreira Leite establish the existence of minimizers for particular restricted subcritical and critical variational issues on BV(Ω). Similar functionals exhibit deeper weak* topological traits including lower semicontinuity and affine compactness, and their geometry is non-coercive. Our work also proves the result that extremal functions exist for certain affine Poincaré-Sobolev inequalities.

EXISTENCE AND MULTIPLICITY OF SOLUTIONS FOR A COUPLED SYSTEM OF KIRCHHOFF TYPE EQUATIONS

In this paper,we study the coupled system of Kirchhoff type equations−(a+b∫R 3|∇u|2 dx)Δu+u=2αα+β|u|α−2 u|v|β,−(a+b∫R 3|∇v|2 dx)Δv+v=2βα+β|u|α|v|β−2 v,u,v∈H 1(R 3),x∈R 3,x∈R 3,where a,b>0,α,β>1 and 3<α+β<6.We prove the existence of a ground state solution for the above problem in which the nonlinearity is not 4-superlinear at infinity.Also,using a discreetness property of Palais-Smale sequences and the Krasnoselkii genus method,we obtain the existence of infinitely many geometrically distinct solutions in the case whenα,β≥2 and 4≤α+β<6.

A New Objective Penalty Function Approach for Solving Constrained Minimax Problems

In this paper,a new objective penalty function approach is proposed for solving minimax programming problems with equality and inequality constraints.This new objective penalty function combines the objective penalty and constraint penalty.By the new objective penalty function,a constrained minimax problem is converted to minimizations of a sequence of continuously differentiable functions with a simple box constraint.One can thus apply any efficient gradient minimization methods to solve the minimizations with box constraint at each step of the sequence.Some relationships between the original constrained minimax problem and the corresponding minimization problems with box constraint are established.Based on these results,an algorithm for finding a global solution of the constrained minimax problems is proposed by integrating the particular structure of minimax problems and its global convergence is proved under some conditions.Furthermore,an algorithm is developed for finding a local solution of the constrained minimax problems,with its convergence proved under certain conditions.Preliminary results of numerical experiments with well-known test problems show that satisfactorilyapproximate solutions for some constrained minimax problems can be obtained.

Existence and multiplicity of normalized solutions for a class of fractional Choquard equations

In this paper, we study the existence and multiplicity of solutions with a prescribed L2-norm for a class of nonlinear fractional Choquard equations in RN:(-△)su-λu =(κα*|u|p)|u|p-2u,where N≥3,s∈(0,1),α∈(0,N),p∈(max{1 +(α+2s)/N,2},(N+α)/(N-2s)) and κα(x)=|x|α-N. To get such solutions,we look for critical points of the energy functional I(u) =1/2∫RN|(-△)s/2u|2-1/(2p)∫RN(κα*|u|p)|u|p on the constraints S(c)={u∈Hs(RN):‖u‖L2(RN)2=c},c >0.For the value p∈(max{1+(α+2s)/N,2},(N+α)/(N-2s)) considered, the functional I is unbounded from below on S(c). By using the constrained minimization method on a suitable submanifold of S(c), we prove that for any c>0, I has a critical point on S(c) with the least energy among all critical points of I restricted on S(c). After that,we describe a limiting behavior of the constrained critical point as c vanishes and tends to infinity. Moreover,by using a minimax procedure, we prove that for any c>0, there are infinitely many radial critical points of I restricted on S(c).

An Improved Method to Detect Remote Sensing Image Targets Captured by Sensor Network

In order to detect targets from the hyper-spectral images captured by unmanned aerial vehicles, the images are moved into a new characteristic space with greater divisibility by making use of the manifold learning theory. On this basis, a furation impulse response （FIR） filter is developed. The output energy can be minimized after images passing through a FIR filter. The target pixel and the background pixel are distinguished according to the restrained conditions. This method can effectively suppress noises and detect sub-pixel targets in the hyper-spectral remote sensing image of unknown background spectrum.

A STOCHASTIC MOVING BALLS APPROXIMATION METHOD OVER A SMOOTH INEQUALITY CONSTRAINT

We consider the problem of minimizing the average of a large number of smooth component functions over one smooth inequality constraint.We propose and analyze a stochastic Moving Balls Approximation(SMBA)method.Like stochastic gradient(SG)met hods,the SMBA method's iteration cost is independent of the number of component functions and by exploiting the smoothness of the constraint function,our method can be easily implemented.Theoretical and computational properties of SMBA are studied,and convergence results are established.Numerical experiments indicate that our algorithm dramatically outperforms the existing Moving Balls Approximation algorithm(MBA)for the structure of our problem.
