This paper is devoted to developing new applications from the limiting subdifferential in nonsmooth optimization and variational analysis to the study of the Lipschitz behavior of the Pareto solution maps in parametric nonconvex semi-infinite vector optimization problems (SIVO for brevity). We...

We report the characteristics of cavity polaritons in a CuBr microcavity consisting of a λ/2-thick CuBr active layer and HfO<Subscript>2</Subscript>/SiO<Subscript>2</Subscript> distributed Bragg reflectors: λ corresponds to an effective resonant wavelength of the lowest-lying exciton. The excitonic system of a CuBr crystal has three kinds...</subscript></subscript>

Avalanche dynamics is an indispensable feature of complex systems. Here, we study the self-organized critical dynamics of avalanches on scale-free networks with degree exponent γ through the Bak–Tang–Wiesenfeld (BTW) sandpile model. The threshold height of a node i is set as ki1−η with...

We study avalanche dynamics on scale-free networks, following a power-law degree distribution, pd(k)∼k-γ, through the Bak–Tang–Wiesenfeld sandpile model. The threshold height of a node i is set to be ki1-η with 0⩽η1. We obtain the exponents for the avalanche size and the duration...

In scale-free networks, the degree distribution follows a power law with the exponent γ. Many model networks exist which reproduce the scale-free nature of the real-world networks. In most of these models, the value of γ is continuously tunable, thus is not universal. We study a problem of...

We introduce a growing network model which generates both modular and hierarchical structure in a self-organized way. To this end, we modify the Barabási–Albert model into the one evolving under the principles of division and independence as well as growth and preferential attachment (PA). A...

The problem of close-packed dimers on the honeycomb lattice was solved by Kasteleyn in 1963. Here we extend the solution to include interactions between neighboring dimers in two spatial lattice directions. The solution is obtained by using the method of Bethe ansatz and by converting the dimer...

Using a scalarization method, approximate optimality conditions of a multiobjective nonconvex optimization problem which has an infinite number of constraints are established. Approximate duality theorems for mixed duality are given. Results on approximate duality in Wolfe type and Mond-Weir...

This paper presents a theoretical link between the yield curve and future economic growth in a simple stochastic growth model. The derived relationship implies that, in a simple competitive production economy, the slope of the yield curve predicts future output growth. This predictive content of...
