In this paper, d-dimensional (dD) quasi-periodically forced nonlinear Schrödinger equation with a general nonlinearity iut −∆u+Mξu+ εφ(t)(u+ h(|u| 2)u) = 0, x ∈ T, t ∈ R under periodic boundary conditions is studied, where Mξ is a real Fourier multiplier and ε is a small positive parameter, φ(t) is a real analytic quasi-periodic function in t with frequency vector ω = (ω1,ω2 . . . ,ωm), and h(|...

Let F be an arbitrary topological vector space; we shall say that a subset S of F is quasi-convex if the set of continuous affine functionals on 5 separates the points of S. If X is a Banach space and T: X -* F is a continuous linear operator, then T is quasi-convex if T(U) is quasiconvex, where U is the unit ball of X. In the case when T is compact, T(U) is quasi-convex if and only if it is af...

We consider a family of damped quasi-Newton methods for solving unconstrained optimization problems. This family resembles that of Broyden with line searches, except that the change in gradients is replaced by a certain hybrid vector before updating the current Hessian approximation. This damped technique modifies the Hessian approximations so that they are maintained sufficiently positive defi...

We study Newton’s method and method based on linearization for solving quasi-variational inequalities in a finite-dimensional real vector space. Projection methods were the most studied methods for solving quasi-variational inequalities and they have linear rates of the convergence. In the paper we establish sufficient conditions for the convergence of Newton’s method and method of linearizatio...

where f is a continuous function of compact support onGwith values in V . This is not quite a trivial matter. If V is assumed to be complete, a definition by Riemann sums works quite well, but this is an unnecessarily strong requirement. The natural condition on V seems to be that it be quasi-complete, a somewhat technical but nonetheless valuable condition. Continuous representations of a loca...

Let k be a field. Given two finite-dimensional right comodules N andM over a k–coalgebra C, the k–vector spaces ExtC(N,M) need not to be finite-dimensional. This is due to the fact that the injective right comodules appearing in the minimal injective resolution of M need not to be of finite dimension or even quasi-finite. The obstruction here is that factor comodules of quasi-finite comodules a...
