Veterinary Dermatology, Volume 33, Issue 1, Page 17-e6, February 2022., 2022 Background – Because of the increased incidence of multidrug‐resistant (MDR) bacteria, the use of disinfectants over antibiotics has been encouraged. However, the interactions between disinfectants and host local immunity are poorly understood. Objective – To assess the effects of chlorhexidine digluconate (Chx), with and without selected host defence ...

On Convergence of Binary Trust-Region Steepest Descent [PDF]
Journal of Nonsmooth Analysis and Optimization, 2023 Binary trust-region steepest descent (BTR) and combinatorial integral approximation (CIA) are two recently investigated approaches for the solution of optimization problems with distributed binary-/discrete-valued variables (control functions).

Dynamics of Dengue epidemics using optimal control [PDF]
, 2010 We present an application of optimal control theory to Dengue epidemics. This epidemiologic disease is an important theme in tropical countries due to the growing number of infected individuals.

A new elementary proof for M-stationarity under MPCC-GCQ for mathematical programs with complementarity constraints [PDF]
Journal of Nonsmooth Analysis and Optimization, 2021 It is known in the literature that local minimizers of mathematical programs with complementarity constraints (MPCCs) are so-called M-stationary points, if a weak MPCC-tailored Guignard constraint qualification (called MPCC-GCQ) holds.

Positive Definiteness and Semi-Definiteness of Even Order Symmetric Cauchy Tensors [PDF]
, 2014 Motivated by symmetric Cauchy matrices, we define symmetric Cauchy tensors and their generating vectors in this paper. Hilbert tensors are symmetric Cauchy tensors.
