Signed tropical halfspaces and convexity [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
We extend the fundamentals for tropical convexity beyond the tropically positive orthant expanding the theory developed by Loho and V\'egh (ITCS 2020). We study two notions of convexity for signed tropical numbers called 'TO-convexity' (formerly 'signed tropical convexity') and the novel notion 'TC-convexity'.

Tunable Thermoshrinkable Hydrogels for 4D Fabrication of Cell‐Seeded Channels

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A thermoresponsive polymer with methacrylate groups for photo‐cross‐linking, based on polyethylene glycol, N‐isopropylacrylamide, and 2‐hydroxyethyl acrylate is synthetized to yield hydrogels that shrink upon temperature increase. The new polymer enables the fabrication of cell‐laden perfusable channels with diameters below 200 µm by combining ...

CONVEX SEQUENCE AND CONVEX POLYGON

open access: yes
In this paper, we deal with the question; under what conditions the points $P_i(xi,yi)$ $(i = 1,\cdots, n)$ form a convex polygon provided $x_1 < \cdots < x_n$ holds. One of the main findings of the paper can be stated as follows: "Let $P_1(x_1,y_1),\cdots ,P_n(x_n,y_n)$ are $n$ distinct points ($n\geq3$) with $x_1< ...

Convex hulls of spheres and convex hulls of disjoint convex polytopes

open access: yesComputational Geometry, 2013
Given a set @S of spheres in E^d, with d>=3 and d odd, having a constant number of m distinct radii @r"1,@r"2,...,@r"m, we show that the worst-case combinatorial complexity of the convex hull of @S is @Q(@?"1"= "j"= =3 odd, where n"i spheres have radius @r"i, i=1,2, and @r"2 @r"1, such that their convex hull has combinatorial complexity @W(n"1n"2^@?^d ...

A Bio‐Inspired Perspective on Materials Sustainability

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This perspective discusses natural materials as inspiration for sustainable engineering designs and the processing of materials. First, circularity, longevity, parsimony, and activity are presented as essential material paradigms. The perspective then uses many examples of natural and technical materials to introduce principles such as oligo ...

Duality for nonsmooth mathematical programming problems with equilibrium constraints

open access: yesJournal of Inequalities and Applications, 2016
In this paper, we consider the mathematical programs with equilibrium constraints (MPECs) in Banach space. The objective function and functions in the constraint part are assumed to be lower semicontinuous.

Starlike and convexity properties of q-Bessel-Struve functions

open access: yesDemonstratio Mathematica, 2022
This paper introduces three different normalization associated with the second and third q-Bessel-Struve functions. We use Hadamard factorizations to determine the radii of starlike and convexity of these functions.

On $\varphi$-convexity

open access: yesPublicationes Mathematicae Debrecen, 2012
In this paper, approximate convexity and approximate midconvexity properties, called $\varphi$-convexity and $\varphi$-midconvexity, of real valued function are investigated. Various characterizations of $\varphi$-convex and $\varphi$-midconvex functions are obtained.

Existence of global solutions and decay estimates for a viscoelastic Petrovsky equation with a delay term in the non-linear internal feedback

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2017
In this article we consider a nonlinear viscoelastic Petrovsky equation in a bounded domain with a delay term in the weakly nonlinear internal feedback: $$\eqalign{ &|u_t|^{l}u_{tt} +\Delta^2 u -\Delta u_{tt} -\int_0^t h(t-s)\Delta^2 u(s)\,ds\cr ...
