IMPOSING CURVATURE RESTRICTIONS ON A TRANSLOG COST FUNCTION USING A MARKOV CHAIN MONTE CARLO SIMULATION APPROACH

open access: yes
Using Kansas Farm data from 1973 to 1998, curvature restrictions are imposed on a translog cost function. Using uninformative priors with indicator functions representing distribution and inequality constraints, a Markov Chain Monte Carlo Simulation ...

Optimal Design and Constrained Quasiconvexity

SIAM Journal on Mathematical Analysis, 2000
The author considers an optimal design problem of the form \[ \text{Minimize }I(g) = \int_\Omega W(x,g(x),w(x), \nabla w(x)) dx, \] with \(g(x) \in \{a,b\}\), \({1\over |\Omega|} \int_\Omega g = \lambda a + (1 - \lambda)b\), \(\lambda \in(0,1)\) is fixed, \(w\in H^1_0(\Omega)\) is the solution of -div\((g \nabla w)=f\) for a given \(f \in H^{-1}(\Omega)

On second order conditions for quasiconvexity

Mathematical Programming, 1980
The paper presents a sufficient condition for quasiconvexity in terms of Hessian, hereby extending an earlier result by Katzner in 1970, and (by a slight modification of the assumptions) a necessary and sufficient condition for quasiconvexity.

Quasiconvex Jensen Divergences and Quasiconvex Bregman Divergences

2021
We first introduce the class of strictly quasiconvex and strictly quasiconcave Jensen divergences which are asymmetric distances, and study some of their properties. We then define the strictly quasiconvex Bregman divergences as the limit case of scaled and skewed quasiconvex Jensen divergences, and report a simple closed-form formula which shows that ...

Homogenization of Functionals with Linear Growth in the Context of $$\mathcal A$$ A -quasiconvexity [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Mathematics and Optimization, 2015
This work deals with the homogenization of functionals with linear growth in the context of A-quasiconvexity. A representation theorem is proved, where the new integrand function is obtained by solving a cell problem where the coupling between ...
