A minimax problem using generalized rational functions

Numerical solution of Troesch's problem using Christov rational functions

We present a collocation method to obtain the approximate solution of Troesch's problem which arises in the confinement of a plasma column by radiation pressure and applied physics. By using the Christov rational functions and collocation points, this method transforms Troesch's problem into a system of nonlinear algebraic equations. The rate of convergence is shown to be exponential. The numer...

A generalized eigenvalue problem for quasi-orthogonal rational functions

In general, the zeros of an orthogonal rational function (ORF) on a subset of the real line, with poles among {α1, . . . , αn} ⊂ (C0 ∪ {∞}), are not all real (unless αn is real), and hence, they are not suitable to construct a rational Gaussian quadrature rule (RGQ). For this reason, the zeros of a so-called quasi-ORF or a so-called paraORF are used instead. These zeros depend on one single par...

A Numerical Integration Method by Using Generalized Series of Functions

Primal interior point method for minimization of generalized minimax functions

In this paper, we propose a primal interior-point method for large sparse generalized minimax optimization. After a short introduction, where the problem is stated, we introduce the basic equations of the Newton method applied to the KKT conditions and propose a primal interior-point method. Next we describe the basic algorithm and give more details concerning its implementation covering numeri...
