Inexact Restoration Methods for Semivectorial Bilevel Programming Problem on Riemannian Manifolds
For a better understanding of the bilevel programming on Riemannian manifolds, a semivectorial bilevel programming scheme is proposed in this paper. The semivectorial bilevel programming is firstly transformed into a single-level programming problem by ...

ABSTRACT Background Establishing a comprehensive apheresis medicine program in a resource‐constrained setting presents significant structural, financial, and logistical challenges. Despite the growing clinical importance of apheresis services globally, published experience from sub‐Saharan Africa remains sparse.

ABSTRACT Background Chronic micro‐inflammation in patients with end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) is a significant driver of cardiovascular complications and diminished quality of life. While standard hemodialysis (SHD) effectively manages small‐molecule clearance, its ability to remove medium‐to‐large uremic toxins—the primary catalysts of systemic ...

Qualification of sustainable aviation fuels: system constraints and opportunities for scale
Sustainable aviation fuels (SAF) are widely recognised as a key component of aviation decarbonisation strategies. However, the introduction of new fuels into a safety-critical aviation system requires robust evaluation to ensure compatibility with ...

ABSTRACT Background Japan has one of the highest dialysis prevalence rates worldwide and a shrinking, aging population. Whether dialysis burden has entered a sustained post‐peak phase or whether recent declines partly reflect pandemic‐related disruptions remains uncertain.

Optimality Conditions and Constraint Qualifications for Quasiconvex Programming [PDF]
The minimization of upper semicontinuous quasiconvex functions \(f\) in a closed convex set is considered subject to nonpositivity of some lower semicontinuous quasiconvex functions, each described by way of a generator, i.e. as the supremum of a family of quasiaffine functions. For essentially quasiconvex \(f\) (i.e. having no local non-global minima)

A constraint qualification characterizing surrogate duality for quasiconvex programming
In this paper, we study a constraint qualification which completely characterizes surrogate duality for quasiconvex programming. We show that the closed cone constraint qualification for surrogate duality is a necessary and sufficient constraint ...

Optimality conditions and Lagrange multipliers for shape and topology optimization problems
We discuss first order optimality conditions for geometric optimization problems with Neumann boundary conditions and boundary observation. The methods we develop here are applicable to large classes of state systems or cost functionals.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.
