In the paper, we describe various applications of the closedness and duality theorems of [7] and [8]. First, the strong separability of a polyhedron and a linear image of a convex set is characterized. Then, it is shown how stability conditions (known from the generalized Fenchel-Rockafellar duality theory) can be reformulated as closedness conditions. Finally, we present a generalized Lagrange...

In this paper, we consider a general composed convex optimization problem with inequality systems involving a finite number of convex constraints. We establish the strong duality between the primal problem and the Fenchel-Lagrange dual problem by a conjugate duality approach. Moreover, we obtain some new Farkas-type results for this problem by using weak and strong duality theorems. Our results...

A duality theorem for a pair of Wolfe-type second-order minimax mixed integer symmetric dual programs over cones is proved under separability and η-bonvexity/η-boncavity of the function k(x, y) appearing in the objective, where : . n m k R R R × ֏ Mond-Weir type symmetric duality over cones is also studied under η-pseudobonvexity/ηpseudoboncavity assumptions. Self duality (when the dual proble...

Amongst various important applications, one important application of nonlinear programming is to maximize or minimize the ratio of two functions, commonly called fractional programming. The characteristics of fractional programming problems have been investigated widely [1, 6, 10] and [13]. In noneconomic situations, fractional programming problems arisen in information theory, stochastic progr...

We present a mathematical theory for a new type of quantum computer called a duality quantum computer that has recently been proposed. We discuss the nonunitarity of certain circuits of a duality quantum computer. It is shown that a duality quantum computer can measure itself without needing a separate measurement apparatus to determine its final state. We then discuss the relevance of this wor...

Last lecture we studied duality of linear programs (LP), specifically how to construct the dual, the relation between the optimum of an LP and its dual, and some duality applications. In this lecture, we will talk about another application of duality to prove one of the theorems in combinatorics so called Maximum Flow-Minimum Cut Problem. The theorem roughly says that in any graph, the value of...

In this paper, the concept of intuitionistic fuzzy mapping as a generalization of fuzzy mapping is presented, and its' relationship with intuitionistic fuzzy relations is derived. Moreover, some basicoperations of intuitionistic fuzzy mappings are defined, hence we can conclude that all of intuitionistic fuzzy mappings constitute a soft algebrawith respect to these operations. Afterwards, the A...

it is well known fact that binary relations are generalized mathematical functions. contrary to functions from domain to range, binary relations may assign to each element of domain two or more elements of range. some basic operations on functions such as the inverse and composition are applicable to binary relations as well. depending on the domain or range or both are fuzzy value fuzzy set, i...

The concept of fuzzy sets was introduced by Zadeh [21] in 1965. After that a lot of work has been done regarding fuzzy sets and fuzzy mappings. The concept of fuzzy mappings was first introduced by Heilpern [10], he proved fixed point theorem for fuzzy contraction mappings which is a fuzzy analogue of the fixed point theorem for multi valued mappings of Nadler [15], Vijayraju and Marudai [19] g...
