Explicitly quasiconvex optimization problems
We present some properties of explicitly quasiconvex functions, which play an important role in both multicriteria and scalar optimization. Some of these results were recently obtained together with Ovidiu Bagdasar during a research visit at the University of Derby (UK), within the project
متن کاملQuasiconvex functions and Hessian equations
In this note we construct new examples of quasiconvex functions defined on the set Sn×n of symmetric matrices. They are built on the k-th elementary symmetric function of the eigenvalues, k = 1, 2, ..., n. The idea is motivated by Šverák’s paper [S]. The proof of our result relies on the theory of the so-called k-Hessian equations, which have been intensively studied recently, see [CNS], [T], [...
متن کاملJensen’s Inequality for Quasiconvex Functions
This class of functions strictly contains the class of convex functions defined on a convex set in a real linear space. See [8] and citations therein for an overview of this issue. Some recent studies have shown that quasiconvex functions have quite close resemblances to convex functions – see, for example, [4], [6], [7], [10] for quasiconvex and even more general extensions of convex functions...
متن کاملQuasiconvex Functions and Nonlinear Pdes
A second order characterization of functions which have convex level sets (quasiconvex functions) results in the operator L0(Du,Du) = min{v ·D2u vT | |v| = 1, |v ·Du| = 0}. In two dimensions this is the mean curvature operator, and in any dimension L0(Du,Du)/|Du| is the first principal curvature of the surface S = u−1(c). Our main results include a comparison principle for L0(Du,Du) = g when g ...
متن کاملA Characterization of Quasiconvex Vector-valued Functions
The aim of this paper is to characterize in terms of scalar quasiconvexity the vector-valued functions which are K-quasiconvex with respect to a closed convex cone K in a Banach space. Our main result extends a wellknown characterization of K-quasiconvexity by means of extreme directions of the polar cone of K, obtained by Dinh The Luc in the particular case when K is a polyhedral cone generate...
