in this paper, we study the problem of minimizing the ratio of two quadratic functions subject to a quadratic constraint. first we introduce a parametric equivalent of the problem. then a bisection and a generalized newton-based method algorithms are presented to solve it. in order to solve the quadratically constrained quadratic minimization problem within both algorithms, a semidefinite optim...

in this paper, we deal to obtain some new complexity results for solving semidefinite optimization (sdo) problem by interior-point methods (ipms). we define a new proximity function for the sdo by a new kernel function. furthermore we formulate an algorithm for a primal dual interior-point method (ipm) for the sdo by using the proximity function and give its complexity analysis, and then we sho...

an analytical equation of state is applied to calculate the thermodynamic properties for argon. theequation of state is that of song and mason. it is based on a statistical-mechanical perturbation theory ofhard convex bodies and can be written as fifth-order polynomial in the density. there exist three temperaturedependentparameters: the second virial coefficient, an effective molecular volume,...
