چکیده

Theorems on the convex hull of an extended real-valued function living on a Hilbert space are presented in case the function is separable and in case the function is a composition of another function and a linear transformation. Equivalence of convex hulls of functions and their biconjugates is used. In particular, it is shown that under properness conditions the biconjugate of a separable function is equal to the sum of the biconjugates of its constituents, and the biconjugate of a composition of a function and a bounded linear transformation is equal to the composition of the biconjugate of the function and the linear transformation on the range of the linear transformation. The results are applied to describe the convex hull of the objective function of a problem in stochastic integer programming.

Linear Objective Function Optimization with the Max-product Fuzzy Relation Inequality Constraints

In this paper, an optimization problem with a linear objective function subject to a consistent finite system of fuzzy relation inequalities using the max-product composition is studied. Since its feasible domain is non-convex, traditional linear programming methods cannot be applied to solve it. We study this problem and capture some special characteristics of its feasible domain and optimal s...

Sweep Line Algorithm for Convex Hull Revisited

Convex hull of some given points is the intersection of all convex sets containing them. It is used as primary structure in many other problems in computational geometry and other areas like image processing, model identification, geographical data systems, and triangular computation of a set of points and so on. Computing the convex hull of a set of point is one of the most fundamental and imp...

Weighted composition operators between growth spaces on circular and strictly convex domain

Let $Omega_X$ be a bounded, circular and strictly convex domain of a Banach space $X$ and $mathcal{H}(Omega_X)$ denote the space of all holomorphic functions defined on $Omega_X$. The growth space $mathcal{A}^omega(Omega_X)$ is the space of all $finmathcal{H}(Omega_X)$ for which $$|f(x)|leqslant C omega(r_{Omega_X}(x)),quad xin Omega_X,$$ for some constant $C>0$, whenever $r_{Omega_X}$ is the M...

L-CONVEX SYSTEMS AND THE CATEGORICAL ISOMORPHISM TO SCOTT-HULL OPERATORS

The concepts of $L$-convex systems and Scott-hull spaces are proposed on frame-valued setting. Also, we establish the categorical isomorphism between  $L$-convex systems and Scott-hull spaces. Moreover, it is proved that the category of $L$-convex structures is  bireflective in the category of $L$-convex systems. Furthermore, the quotient systems of $L$-convex systems are studied.

Functionally closed sets and functionally convex sets in real Banach spaces

‎Let $X$ be a real normed  space, then  $C(subseteq X)$  is  functionally  convex  (briefly, $F$-convex), if  $T(C)subseteq Bbb R $ is  convex for all bounded linear transformations $Tin B(X,R)$; and $K(subseteq X)$  is  functionally   closed (briefly, $F$-closed), if  $T(K)subseteq Bbb R $ is  closed  for all bounded linear transformations $Tin B(X,R)$. We improve the    Krein-Milman theorem  ...
