Output Maximization of an Agency [PDF]

open access: yes
Considering Cobb-Douglas function in three variables as an explicit form of production function, in this paper an attempt has been made to maximize an output subject to a budget constraint, using Lagrange multipliers technique, as well as necessary and ...

Homophily‐adjusted social influence estimation

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.
Abstract Homophily and social influence are two key concepts of social network analysis. Distinguishing between these phenomena is difficult, and approaches to disambiguate the two have been primarily limited to longitudinal data analyses. In this study, we provide sufficient conditions for valid estimation of social influence through cross‐sectional ...

Mimetic-f(Q) gravity: Cosmic reconstruction and energy conditions

open access: yesNuclear Physics B
In this study, we present a approach to mimetic gravity incorporating a non-zero nonmetricity tensor with vanishing torsion and curvature, establishing a generalized mimetic-f(Q) gravity framework.

Front Propagation Through a Perforated Wall

open access: yesCommunications on Pure and Applied Mathematics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We consider a bistable reaction– diffusion equation ut=Δu+f(u)$u_t=\Delta u +f(u)$ on RN${\mathbb {R}}^N$ in the presence of an obstacle K$K$, which is a wall of infinite span with many holes. More precisely, K$K$ is a closed subset of RN${\mathbb {R}}^N$ with smooth boundary such that its projection onto the x1$x_1$‐axis is bounded and that ...

Generation of Optimal FRP Layout for Strengthening Damaged Structures with a Local Displacement Constraint

open access: yesBuildings
Structural deflection is a critical factor used for evaluating the effectiveness of reinforcement. This study proposes a method for generating FRP layouts with a local displacement constraint to strengthen damaged structures.

Mixture Augmented Lagrange Multiplier Method for Tensor Recovery and Its Applications

open access: yesDiscrete Dynamics in Nature and Society, 2014
The problem of data recovery in multiway arrays (i.e., tensors) arises in many fields such as computer vision, image processing, and traffic data analysis. In this paper, we propose a scalable and fast algorithm for recovering a low-n-rank tensor with an

Industrial Structure and Ecological Sustainability: Evidence From Small‐Scale Industries in Nordic Countries

open access: yesCorporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines how industrial structure is associated with ecological sustainability in Nordic countries over the period 2001–2022. The analysis focuses on the share of small‐scale industries in the industrial system and examines its association with ecological sustainability, measured by the load capacity factor.

Convergence of Variational Iteration Method for Second-Order Delay Differential Equations

open access: yesJournal of Applied Mathematics, 2013
This paper employs the variational iteration method to obtain analytical solutions of second-order delay differential equations. The corresponding convergence results are obtained, and an effective technique for choosing a reasonable Lagrange multiplier

Cost Minimization of a Competitive Firm [PDF]

open access: yes
One of the economists’ missions is to predict the behavioral responses of consumers or firms on the assumption that optimizing continues. Once this capability is developed, economists try to manage “today” to optimize future economic return of the inputs.

Cosmological models with Lagrange multiplier field [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We first consider the Einstein-aether theory with a gravitational coupling and a Lagrange multiplier field, and then consider the non-minimally coupled quintessence field theory with Lagrange multiplier field.
