In this paper, we propose a new nonmonotone adaptive trust region method for solving unconstrained optimization problems. Actually, we combine a popular nonmonotone technique with an adaptive trust region algorithm. The new ratio to adjusting the next trust region radius is different from the ratio in the traditional trust region methods. Under some appropriate conditions, we show that the new algorithm has good global convergence and superlinear convergence.展开更多

The interconnection topology graph among the agents is switching and undirected. The agent dynamics is expressed in the form of a double integrator model. Two different cases are considered in this study. One is the leader-following case and the other is leaderless case. Based on graph theory and common Lyapunov function method, some sufficient conditions are obtained for the consensus stability of the considered systems with the neighbour-based feedback laws in both leader-following case and leaderless case respectively. Finally, two numerical examples are given to illustrate the obtained results.展开更多

W states are especially useful for secure communication. In this paper, we propose that the quantum correlation in generic three-qubit pure W states can be given by the two-qubit discords of these states.展开更多

We show that all distance-regular graphs with diameter four and valency at least three admitting two Q-polynomial structures are either dual bipartite or almost dual bipartite. By the work of Dickie(1995) this implies that any distance-regular graph with diameter d at least four and valency at least three admitting two Q-polynomial structures is, provided it is not a Hadamard graph, either the cube H(d, 2)with d even, the half cube 1/2H(2d + 1, 2), the folded cube?H(2d + 1, 2), or the dual polar graph on [2A2d-1(q)]with q 2 a prime power.展开更多
