We study sample average approximations under adaptive importance sampling. Based on a Banach-space-valued martingale strong law of large numbers, we establish uniform convergence of the sample average approximation to the function being approximated. In the optimization context, we obtain convergence of the optimal value and optimal solutions of the sample average approximation.

The singularly perturbed parabolic boundary value problem is considered. Difference scheme is obtained by using cubic spline difference scheme on Shishkin’s mesh in space and classical discretization on uniform mesh in time. To obtain better stability and simpler matrix the fitting factor in polynomial form is used. The uniform convergence is achieved. Numerical results are presented. AMS Mathe...

in this paper an exponentially fitted finite difference method is presented for solving singularly perturbed two-point boundary value problems with the boundary layer. a fitting factor is introduced and the model equation is discretized by a finite difference scheme on an uniform mesh. thomas algorithm is used to solve the tri-diagonal system. the stability of the algorithm is investigated. it ...

In this paper, under the framework of Banach space with uniformly Gateaux differentiable norm and uniform normal structure, we use the existence theorem of fixed points of Li and Sims to investigate the convergence of the implicit iteration process and the explicit iteration process for asymptotically nonexpansive mappings. We get the convergence theorems.

In this paper, under the framework of Banach space with uniformly Gateauxdifferentiable norm and uniform normal structure, we use the existence theorem of fixed points of Gang Li and Sims to investigate the convergence of the implicit iteration process and the explicit iteration process for asymptotically nonexpansive semigroup. We get the convergence theorems.

Using Toruńczyk’s charaterization theorem, we show that the space CB(X,Y ) of bounded continuous mappings from X into Y is a topological manifold modelled on the Hilbert space of weight 20 , with respect to the topology of uniform convergence, under the following three assumptions: (1) X is a noncompact, separable and metrizable space, (2) Y is a complete metric space which is an ANRU (ANR in u...

Fix α ∈ [0, 1). Consider the random walk on the circle S1 which proceeds by repeatedly rotating points forward or backward, with probability 1 2 , by an angle 2πα. This paper analyzes the rate of convergence of this walk to the uniform distribution under “discrepancy” distance. The rate depends on the continued fraction properties of the number ξ = 2α. We obtain bounds for rates when ξ is any i...
