THE GROTHENDIECK CONSTANT IS STRICTLY SMALLER THAN KRIVINE’S BOUND
The (real) Grothendieck constant ${K}_{G} $ is the infimum over those $K\in (0, \infty )$ such that for every $m, n\in \mathbb{N} $ and every $m\times n$ real matrix $({a}_{ij} )$ we have $$\begin{eqnarray*}\displaystyle \max _{\{ x_{i}\} _{i= 1}^{m} , \{

Uncontrolled inexact information within bundle methods
We consider convex non-smooth optimization problems where additional information with uncontrolled accuracy is readily available. It is often the case when the objective function is itself the output of an optimization solver, as for large-scale energy ...

Evaluating performance of image segmentation criteria and techniques
The image segmentation problem is to delineate, or segment, a salient feature in an image. As such, this is a bipartition problem with the goal of separating the foreground from the background. An NP-hard optimization problem, the Normalized Cut problem,

Core group placement: allocation and provisioning of heterogeneous resources
We present a theoretical and empirical study on a recently introduced combinatorial optimization problem, namely core group placement problem. The problem arises from real-world business requirements as part of resource allocation in cloud management. In

Polynomial Time Algorithm for Determining Max-Min Paths in Networks and Solving Zero Value Cyclic Games [PDF]
We study the max-min paths problem, which represents a game version of the shortest and the longest paths problem in a weighted directed graph. In this problem the vertex set V of the weighted directed graph G=(V,E) is divided into two disjoint subsets ...
