We consider the problem of bounding CFT correlators on Euclidean section. By reformulating question as an optimization problem, we construct functionals numerically which determine upper and lower bounds under several circumstances. A useful outcome our analysis is that gap maximization bootstrap can be reproduced by a easier problem. find 3d Ising spin correlator takes minimal possible allowed...

We present an algorithm to generate a one-sided approximation of a given triangular mesh. We refer to such an approximate mesh as a bounding mesh, which includes the original mesh and has fewer vertices. Likewise, an inner bounding mesh is defined as an approximate mesh that is included by a given mesh. Our proposed bounding mesh algorithm performs iterative edge contractions and can generate b...

We perform collision detection between static rigid objects using a bounding volume hierarchy which consists of an oriented bounding box (OBB) tree enhanced with bounding spheres. This approach combines the compactness of OBBs and the simplicity of spheres. The majority of distant objects are separated using the simpler sphere tests. The remaining objects are in close proximity, where some sepa...

Objective: The present research aimed to examine positive and negative beliefs about worry and tendency of students to drug abuse in terms of cross-level effect of school-bounding. Methods: In this multi-level investigation, 1000 students of high schools were selected by means of multi-stage sampling technique. Then, they completed metacognitive questionnaire (MCQ), school-bound...

The algorithm proposed in [Mitsos Optimization 2011] for the global optimization of semi-infinite programs is extended to the global optimization of generalized semi-infinite programs (GSIP). No convexity or concavity assumptions are made. The algorithm employs convergent lower and upper bounds which are based on regular (in general nonconvex) nonlinear programs (NLP) solved by a (black-box) de...

A technique for bounding the capacities of networks of independent channels is introduced. Parts I and II treat pointto-point and multiterminal channels, respectively. Bounds are derived using a new tool called a bounding model. Channel 1 is an upper (lower) bounding model for channel 2 if replacing channel 2 by channel 1 in any network yields a new network whose capacity region is a superset (...
