Distributed Optimal Variational GNE Seeking in Merely Monotone Games

In this paper, the optimal variational generalized Nash equilibrium(v-GNE) seeking problem in merely monotone games with linearly coupled cost functions is investigated, in which the feasible strategy domain of each agent is coupled through an affine constraint. A distributed algorithm based on the hybrid steepest descent method is first proposed to seek the optimal v-GNE. Then, an accelerated algorithm with relaxation is proposed and analyzed, which has the potential to further improve the convergence speed to the optimal v-GNE. Some sufficient conditions in both algorithms are obtained to ensure the global convergence towards the optimal v-GNE. To illustrate the performance of the algorithms, numerical simulation is conducted based on a networked Nash-Cournot game with bounded market capacities.

SPECTRAL DY-TYPE PROJECTION METHOD FOR NONLINEAR MONOTONE SYSTEM OF EQUATIONS

In this paper, we propose a spectral DY-type projection method for nonlinear mono- tone system of equations, which is a reasonable combination of DY conjugate gradient method, the spectral gradient method and the projection technique. Without the differen- tiability assumption on the system of equations, we establish the global convergence of the proposed method, which does not rely on any merit function. Furthermore, this method is derivative-free and so is very suitable to solve large-scale nonlinear monotone systems. The preliminary numerical results show the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method.

The existence, uniqueness and non-symmetric iterative approximation of solutions for a class of systems of mixed monotone operator equations are discussed. As an application, we utilize, the results presented in this paper to study the existence and uniqueness problems of common solutions for a class of systems of functional equations arising in dynamic programming of multistage decision processes and a class of systems of nonlinear integral equation. The results obtained in this paper not only answer an open question suggested in [3] but also generalize the corresponding results of [1],[2].

STRUCTURES OF SYSTEMS WITH EXPONENTIAL LIFE DISTRIBUTIONS

Structures of monotone systems and cold standby systems with exponen-tial life distributions and dependent components are studied. It is shown that a mono-tone system composed of components with multivariate HNBUE life distributions isessentially a series system composed of components with multivariate exponential lifedistributions. Also, it is proved that for cold standby systems composed of componentswith multivariate NBU life distributions, all but oue of the components are degenerateat zero while the remaining one is exponential. In addition, several equivalent char-acterizations of multivariate exponential distribution are provided in the multivariateHNBUE life distribution class which include many existing results as special cases.

An application of our general results is given to scalar differential and difference equations.

A High Order Accurate Bound-Preserving Compact Finite Difference Scheme for Two-Dimensional Incompressible Flow

For solving two-dimensional incompressible flow in the vorticity form by the fourth-order compact finite difference scheme and explicit strong stability preserving temporal discretizations,we show that the simple bound-preserving limiter in Li et al.(SIAM J Numer Anal 56:3308–3345,2018)can enforce the strict bounds of the vorticity,if the velocity field satisfies a discrete divergence free constraint.For reducing oscillations,a modified TVB limiter adapted from Cockburn and Shu(SIAM J Numer Anal 31:607–627,1994)is constructed without affecting the bound-preserving property.This bound-preserving finite difference method can be used for any passive convection equation with a divergence free velocity field.

Optimal Insurance with Background Risk under the Ambiguity and Belief Heterogeneity Structure

In this paper, we discuss the optimal insurance in the presence of background risk while the insured is ambiguity averse and there exists belief heterogeneity between the insured and the insurer. We give the optimal insurance contract when maxing the insured’s expected utility of his/her remaining wealth under the smooth ambiguity model and the heterogeneous belief form satisfying the MHR condition. We calculate the insurance premium by using generalized Wang’s premium and also introduce a series of stochastic orders proposed by [1] to describe the relationships among the insurable risk, background risk and ambiguity parameter. We obtain the deductible insurance is the optimal insurance while they meet specific dependence structures.
