This paper is devoted to the construction of one-Lee weight codes and two-Lee weight codes over F _p + vF _p (v ² = v) with type \({p^{2{k_1}}}{p^{{k_2}}}{p^{{k_3}}}\) based on two different distance-preserving Gray maps from ((F _p + vF _p ) ⁿ , Lee weight) to (F _p ²ⁿ , Hamming weight), where p is a prime. Moreover, the authors prove that the obtained two-Lee weight codes are projective only when p = 2.     

Construction of one-gray weight codes and two-Gray weight codes over ℤ<Subscript>4</Subscript> + <Emphasis Type="Italic">u</Emphasis>ℤ<Subscript>4</Subscript>

This paper firstly gives some necessary conditions on one-Gray weight linear codes. And then we use these results to construct several classes of one-Gray weight linear codes over ?₄+u?₄(u ² = u) with type \({16^{{k_1}}}{8^{{k_2}}}{8^{{k_3}}}{4^{{k_4}}}{4^{{k_5}}}{4^{{k_6}}}{2^{{k_7}}}{2^{{k_8}}}\) based on a distance-preserving Gray map from (?₄ + u?₄) ⁿ to ? ₄ ²ⁿ . Secondly, the authors use the similar approach to do works on two-Gray (projective) weight linear codes. Finally, some examples are given to illustrate the construction methods.     

A class of constacyclic codes over ring <Emphasis Type="Italic">R</Emphasis> + <Emphasis Type="Italic">vR</Emphasis>

By constructing a Gray map, a class of constacyclic codes over ring R = R+vR is studied. Using cyclic codes and negacyclic codes of length p ^s over ring R, the structure of (1?2v)-constacyclic codes and dual codes of length p ^s over ring R are given, the Gray images of (1 ? 2v)-constacyclic codes in a particular case are also studied. It is shown that linear codes of length p ^s over ring R are (1?2v)-constacyclic codes if and only if their Gray images are distance-invariant cyclic codes of length 2p ^s over ring R.     

On LCD Negacyclic Codes over Finite Fields

This paper deduces the structure of LCD negacyclic codes over the finite field Fq, where q is an odd prime power. Based on the study of q-cyclotomic cosets modulo 2 n, the authors obtain the parameters of LCD negacyclic codes of lengths n =(q+1)/2,(q~m-1)/2(q-1)and q~(t·2~τ)-1/2(q~t +1), respectively. And many optimal codes are given. Moreover, the authors research two special classes of MDS LCD negacyclic codes of length n |(q-1)/2 and n |(q+1)2, respectively.     

A New Algorithm for Computing the Extended Hensel Construction of Multivariate Polynomials

This paper presents a new algorithm for computing the extended Hensel construction(EHC) of multivariate polynomials in main variable x and sub-variables u_1, u_2, ···, u_m over a number field K. This algorithm first constructs a set by using the resultant of two initial coprime factors w.r.t. x, and then obtains the Hensel factors by comparing the coefficients of x~i on both sides of an equation. Since the Hensel factors are polynomials of the main variable with coefficients in fraction field K(u_1, u_2, ···, u_m), the computation cost of handling rational functions can be high. Therefore,the authors use a method which multiplies resultant and removes the denominators of the rational functions. Unlike previously-developed algorithms that use interpolation functions or Gr?bner basis, the algorithm relies little on polynomial division, and avoids multiplying by different factors when removing the denominators of Hensel factors. All algorithms are implemented using Magma, a computational algebra system and experiments indicate that our algorithm is more efficient.     

Weighted <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript>2</Superscript>-estimates of solutions for damped wave equations with variable coefficients

The authors establish weighted L²-estimates of solutions for the damped wave equations with variable coefficients u _tt ? divA(x)?u+au _t = 0 in ? ⁿ under the assumption a(x) ≥ a₀[1+ρ(x)]^?l, where a₀ > 0, l < 1, ρ(x) is the distance function of the metric g = A^?1(x) on ? ⁿ . The authors show that these weighted L²-estimates are closely related to the geometrical properties of the metric g = A^?1(x).     

An improved algorithm for solving all <Emphasis Type="Italic">d</Emphasis>-MPs in multi-state networks

Reliability is a desirable performance indicator of many real-world systems to measure the quality level. One general method for evaluating multi-state reliability is using d-minimal paths (d-MPs). However, being an NP-hard problem, searching for all d-MPs is a rather challenging task. This paper proposes an improved algorithm to solve the d-MP problem. To reduce the search space of d-MPs, a concept of lower capacity bound is introduced into the d-MP problem, and an effective technique is developed to find lower capacity bounds. Meanwhile, the fast enumeration method which is a recent improvement to the traditional enumeration method is employed to solve d-MPs. In addition, by introducing the operation of transforming undirected edges into directed edges, the proposed algorithm is applicable to solving both directed networks and undirected networks. Through numerical experiments, it is found that the proposed algorithm holds a distinct advantage over the existing methods in solving all d-MPs.     

Solving low-density multiple subset sum problems with SVP oracle

It is well known that almost all subset sum problems with density less than 0.9408… can be solved in polynomial time with an SVP oracle that can find a shortest vector in a special lattice.In this paper,the authors show that a similar result holds for the k-multiple subset sum problem which has k subset sum problems with exactly the same solution.Specially,for the single subset sum problem(k=1),a modified lattice is introduced to make the proposed analysis much simpler and the bound for the success probability tighter than before.Moreover,some extended versions of the multiple subset sum problem are also considered.     

An FE-Inexact Heterogeneous ADMM for Elliptic Optimal Control Problems with <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript>1</Superscript>-Control Cost

Elliptic PDE-constrained optimal control problems with L¹-control cost (L¹-EOCP) are considered. To solve L¹-EOCP, the primal-dual active set (PDAS) method, which is a special semismooth Newton (SSN) method, used to be a priority. However, in general solving Newton equations is expensive. Motivated by the success of alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM), we consider extending the ADMM to L¹-EOCP. To discretize L¹-EOCP, the piecewise linear finite element (FE) is considered. However, different from the finite dimensional l1-norm, the discretized L¹-norm does not have a decoupled form. To overcome this difficulty, an effective approach is utilizing nodal quadrature formulas to approximately discretize the L¹-norm and L²-norm. It is proved that these approximation steps will not change the order of error estimates. To solve the discretized problem, an inexact heterogeneous ADMM (ihADMM) is proposed. Different from the classical ADMM, the ihADMM adopts two different weighted inner products to define the augmented Lagrangian function in two subproblems, respectively. Benefiting from such different weighted techniques, two subproblems of ihADMM can be efficiently implemented. Furthermore, theoretical results on the global convergence as well as the iteration complexity results o(1/k) for ihADMM are given. In order to obtain more accurate solution, a two-phase strategy is also presented, in which the primal-dual active set (PDAS) method is used as a postprocessor of the ihADMM. Numerical results not only confirm error estimates, but also show that the ihADMM and the two-phase strategy are highly efficient.     

A unified approach to construct generalized B-splines for isogeometric applications

Generalized B-splines have been employed as geometric modeling and numerical simulation tools for isogeometric analysis(IGA for short). However, the previous models used in IGA,such as trigonometric generalized B-splines or hyperbolic generalized B-splines, are not the unified mathematical representation of conics and polynomial parametric curves/surfaces. In this paper,a unified approach to construct the generalized non-uniform B-splines over the space spanned by{α(t), β(t), ξ(t), η(t), 1, t, ···, t~(n-4)} is proposed, and the corresponding isogeometric analysis framework for PDE solving is also studied. Compared with the NURBS-IGA method, the proposed frameworks have several advantages such as high accuracy, easy-to-compute derivatives and integrals due to the non-rational form. Furthermore, with the proposed spline models, isogeometric analysis can be performed on the computational domain bounded by transcendental curves/surfaces, such as the involute of circle, the helix/helicoid, the catenary/catenoid and the cycloid. Several numerical examples for isogeometric heat conduction problems are presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed methods.     

Partially function linear error-in-response models with validation data

This paper considers partial function linear models of the form Y =∫X(t)β(t)dt + g(T)with Y measured with error. The authors propose an estimation procedure when the basis functions are data driven, such as with functional principal components. Estimators of β(t) and g(t) with the primary data and validation data are presented and some asymptotic results are given. Finite sample properties are investigated through some simulation study and a real data application.     

Linear Bayes estimators applied to the inverse Gaussian lifetime model

For the two-parameter inverse Gaussian distribution denoted by I G(μ,λ),the authors employ a linear Bayes procedure to estimate the parameters μ and λ.The superiority of the proposed linear Bayes estimator(LBE) over both the classical UMVUE and the maximum likelihood estimator(MLE) is established in terms of the mean squared error matrix(MSEM) criterion.Compared with the usual Bayes estimator,which is obtained by an MCMC method,the proposed LBE is simple and easy to use.Some numerical results are presented to verify that the LBE performs well.     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis><Subscript>∞</Subscript> control for nonlinear stochastic Markov systems with time-delay and multiplicative noise

This paper is concerned with the H_∞ control problem for a class of nonlinear stochastic Markov jump systems with time-delay and system state-, control input- and external disturbancedependent noise. Firstly, by solving a set of Hamilton-Jacobi inequalities (HJIs), the exponential mean square H_∞ controller design of delayed nonlinear stochastic Markov systems is presented. Secondly, by using fuzzy T-S model approach, the H_∞ controller can be designed via solving a set of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) instead of HJIs. Finally, two numerical examples are provided to show the effectiveness of the proposed design methods.

Polynomial dynamic programming algorithms for lot sizing models with bounded inventory and stockout and/or backlogging

This paper addresses a dynamic lot sizing problem with bounded inventory and stockout where both no backlogging and backlogging allowed cases are considered. The stockout option means that there is outsourcing in a period only when the inventory level at that period is non-positive. The production capacity is unlimited and production cost functions are linear but with fixed charges. The problem is that of satisfying all demands in the planning horizon at minimal total cost. We show that the no backlogging case can be solved in ) O(T ²) time with general concave inventory holding and outsourcing cost functions where T is the length of the planning horizon. The complexity can be reduced to O(T) when the inventory holding cost functions are also linear and have some realistic properties, even if the outsourcing cost functions remain general concave functions. When the inventory holding and outsourcing cost functions are linear, the backlogging case can be solved in O(T ³logT) time whether the outsourcing level at each period is bounded by the sum of the demand of that period and backlogging level from previous periods, or only by the demand of that period.

An analogue of the ℤ<Subscript>4</Subscript>-Goethals code in non-primitive length

This paper constructs a cyclic ?₄-code with a parity-check matrix similar to that of Goethals code but in length 2^m + 1, for all m ≥ 4. This code is a subcode of the lifted Zetterberg code for m even. Its minimum Lee weight is shown to be at least 10, in general, and exactly 12 in lengths 33, 65. The authors give an algebraic decoding algorithm which corrects five errors in these lengths for m = 5, 6 and four errors for m > 6.     

The equivalent representation of the breadth-one <Emphasis Type="Italic">D</Emphasis>-invariant polynomial subspace and its discretization

This paper demonstrates the equivalence of two classes of D-invariant polynomial subspaces, i.e., these two classes of subspaces are different representations of the breadth-one D-invariant subspace. Moreover, the authors solve the discrete approximation problem in ideal interpolation for the breadth-one D-invariant subspace. Namely, the authors find the points, such that the limiting space of the evaluation functionals at these points is the functional space induced by the given D-invariant subspace, as the evaluation points all coalesce at one point.

Thirdly, based on SBRL and LQ results, this paper establishes a sufficient condition for the existence of discrete-time stochastic H ₂/H _∞ control of meanfield type via the solvability of coupled matrix-valued equations.     

Efficient Asymmetrical Extended Designs Under Wrap-Around <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Subscript>2</Subscript>-Discrepancy

The purpose of the present article is to introduce a class of mixed two- and three-level extended designs obtained by adding some new runs to an existing mixed two-and three-level design. A formulation of wrap-around L₂-discrepancy for the extended designs is developed. As a benchmark of obtaining (nearly) uniform asymmetrical extended designs, a lower bound to the wrap-around L₂-discrepancy for our proposed designs is established. Thorough numerical results are displayed, which provide further corroboration to the derived theoretical results.
