A new class of smoothing methods for mathematical programs with equilibrium constraints [PDF]
A class of smoothing methods is proposed for solving mathematical programs with equimibrium constraints. We introduce new and very simple regularizations of the complementarity constraints. Some estimate distance to optimal solution and expansions of the optimal value function are presented.

This work investigates modifying interfacial contacts in realizing giant‐performance semiconductor nanomembrane optoelectronics. Strategies, including surface reaction and buffer layer work‐function modulation, are explored to boost the Schottky barrier. An emerging material of YbOx is utilized for near‐ideal Ohmic contact.

Optimal design of mixtures of ferromagnetic interactions [PDF]
We provide a general framework for the optimal design of surface energies on networks. We prove sharp bounds for the homogenization of discrete systems describing mixtures of ferromagnetic interactions by constructing optimal microgeometries, and we prove a localization principle which allows to reduce to the periodic setting in the general nonperiodic

Optimal transport with discrete long range mean field interactions [PDF]
We study an optimal transport problem where, at some intermediate time, the mass is accelerated by either an external force field, or self-interacting. We obtain regularity of the velocity potential, intermediate density, and optimal transport map, under conditions on the interaction potential that are related to the so-called Ma-Trudinger-Wang ...
