Derivative-Free Multiobjective Trust Region Descent Method Using Radial Basis Function Surrogate Models

open access: yesMathematical and Computational Applications, 2021
We present a local trust region descent algorithm for unconstrained and convexly constrained multiobjective optimization problems. It is targeted at heterogeneous and expensive problems, i.e., problems that have at least one objective function that is ...

Derivative-Free Conformable Iterative Methods for Solving Nonlinear Equations

open access: yesFractal and Fractional, 2023
In this manuscript, we use approximations of conformable derivatives for designing iterative methods to solve nonlinear algebraic or trascendental equations. We adapt the approximation of conformable derivatives in order to design conformable derivative-free iterative schemes to solve nonlinear equations: Steffensen and Secant-type methods.

Resolving the Azimuthal Ambiguity in Vector Magnetogram Data with the Divergence-Free Condition: Application to Discrete Data

open access: yes, 2009
We investigate how the divergence-free property of magnetic fields can be exploited to resolve the azimuthal ambiguity present in solar vector magnetogram data, by using line-of-sight and horizontal heliographic derivative information as approximated ...

No Go Theorem for Self Tuning Solutions With Gauss-Bonnet Terms

open access: yes, 2002
We consider self tuning solutions for a brane embedded in an anti de Sitter spacetime. We include the higher derivative Gauss-Bonnet terms in the action and study singularity free solutions with finite effective Newton's constant.

Sequential Penalty Derivative-Free Methods for Nonlinear Constrained Optimization

open access: yesSIAM Journal on Optimization, 2010
We consider the problem of minimizing a continuously differentiable function of several variables subject to smooth nonlinear constraints. We assume that the first order derivatives of the objective function and of the constraints can be neither calculated nor explicitly approximated.

Model-Based Derivative-Free Methods for Convex-Constrained Optimization

open access: yesSIAM Journal on Optimization, 2022
We present a model-based derivative-free method for optimization subject to general convex constraints, which we assume are unrelaxable and accessed only through a projection operator that is cheap to evaluate. We prove global convergence and a worst-case complexity of $O(ε^{-2})$ iterations and objective evaluations for nonconvex functions, matching ...

Derivative Formula and Applications for Hyperdissipative Stochastic Navier-Stokes/Burgers Equations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
By using coupling method, a Bismut type derivative formula is established for the Markov semigroup associated to a class of hyperdissipative stochastic Navier-Stokes/Burgers equations.

Accurate, rapid identification of dislocation lines in coherent diffractive imaging via a min-max optimization formulation

open access: yes, 2017
Defects such as dislocations impact materials properties and their response during external stimuli. Defect engineering has emerged as a possible route to improving the performance of materials over a wide range of applications, including batteries ...

Forces for Structural Optimizations in Correlated Materials within DFT+Embedded DMFT Functional Approach

open access: yes, 2016
We implemented the derivative of the free energy functional with respect to the atom displacements, so called force, within the combination of Density Functional Theory and the Embedded Dynamical Mean Field Theory.
