Are Stable Instances Easy?
We introduce the notion of a stable instance for a discrete optimization problem, and argue that in many practical situations only sufficiently stable instances are of interest. T...

Optimal Shape Design Using Domain Transformations and Continuous Sensitivity Equation Methods
In this paper, we consider two approaches to solving an optimization based design problem where “shape” is the design parameter. Both methods use domain transformations to comp...

Convergence of a Generalized Gradient Selection Approach for the Decomposition Method
The decomposition method is currently one of the major methods for solving the convex quadratic optimization problems being associated with support vector machines. For a special c...
