    In this work, a nonsmooth multiobjective optimization problem involving gen-eralized invexity with cone constraints (for short, (MOP)) is considered. The Kuhn-Tucker necessary and su?cient conditions for (MOP) are established by using a generalized alterna-tive theorem of Craven and Yang. The relationship between saddle points and weakly effcient solutions of (MOP) is developed. Furthermore, the Wolfe type and Mond-Weir type weak, strong and converse duality results for (MOP) are presented. These results extend and improve
    corresponding results of others.

    This paper investigates multi-rate sampled-data stabilization of nonlinear control systems while the sampler produces quantization during sampling. The approximate DTD method is employed to design a (globally) stabilized controller based on the approximate discrete-time models of the nonlinear plant. It is shown that the multi-rate sampled-data nonlinearcontrolsystemswith quantizationareguaranteedtobe semi-globallypracticalasymp-totically stable while the approximate error and quantization level are restricted by a certain error condition. A simulation example illustrates the validity of obtained results.

    CUI Wei, YU Jing-Hu
    Acta mathematica scientia,Series A. 2012, 32 (1):  27-40. 
    Abstract ( 1023 )   RICH HTML PDF (440KB) ( 947 )   Save

    This paper mainly studies a generalized compound Poisson-Geometric risk model in which the income of insurance premiums is a compound Poisson process and the number of claims is a compound Poisson-Geometric process. This risk model has practical applications in the insurance industry. In this paper, the authors focus on the duration of the negative surplus(DNS) under the above risk model. By taking full advantage of the strong Markov property of the surplus process and the total expectation formula, they derive the distribution
    of the deficit at ruin, and the moment generating functions of the DNS.

    LIU Yan, HE Ze-Rong
    Acta mathematica scientia,Series A. 2012, 32 (1):  90-102. 
    Abstract ( 1125 )   RICH HTML PDF (406KB) ( 863 )   Save

    This work is concerned with an optimal harvesting problem for a predator-prey model, in which the prey population is described by a first order partial differential equation (PDE) in a density function and the predator by an ordinary di?erential equation in total size. The existence and uniqueness of solutions to the state system and the dual system is proven via fixed point theorem. Necessary optimality conditions of first order are established by use of tangent-normal cones and dual system technique. The existence of a unique optimal control
    pair is derived by means of Ekeland’s variational principle. The resulting conclusion extends some existing results involving age-dependent populations.

    Lasarow[1] derived statements on the rank invariance of generalized block Pick matrices of matrix-valued Carath′eodory functions. In this paper, it is concluded that the rank of such generalized block Pick matrices can be related to and coincides with the rank of some block Toeplitz matrices in terms of the Toeplitz vector approach given in [2]. These results are used to improve the proof of the rank invariance of the generalized block Pick matrices in certain sence.

    Acta mathematica scientia,Series A. 2012, 32 (1):  137-147. 
    Abstract ( 1200 )   RICH HTML PDF (415KB) ( 922 )   Save

    In this paper, the authorsconsidera problem ofoptimal reinsuranceand investment with multiple risky assets and a liability for an insurance company whose surplus is governed by a linear diffusion. The insurance company’s risk can be reduced through reinsurance, while in addition the company invests its surplus in a financial market with one risk-free asset and m risky assets. The risky assets’ prices are governed by geometric Brownian motions while the liability evolves according to a Brownian motion with drift. The correlations between the risky assets and the liability are considered. The transaction costs produced during the investmentaretaken into account. Te authors considerthe optimization problemof maximizing the expected exponential utility of terminal wealth and solve it by using the corresponding Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman(HJB) equation. Explicit expression for the optimal value function and the corresponding optimal strategies are obtained.

    Fast Discrete Galerkin Methods for Cauchy Integral Singular Equations with Constant Coe?cients

    Acta mathematica scientia,Series A. 2012, 32 (1):  161-170. 
    Abstract ( 1084 )   RICH HTML PDF (359KB) ( 948 )   Save

    The Petrov-Galerkin method based on Jacobi polynomials is the conventional and standard numerical method for solving the Cauchy singular integral equations with constant coeffcients. This conventional numerical method leads to a linear system with a full coeffcient matrix. When the order of the linear system is large, the computational cost for obtaining and then solving the fully discrete linear system is huge. So in this paper the author develops a fast fully discrete Petrov-Galerkinmethod for solving this kind of integral equations. First compress this full coe?cient matrix into a sparse matrix. Then apply the numerical integration scheme to obtain the fully discrete truncated linear system with a nearly linear computational cost. At last, the fully discrete truncated linear system is solved. It is established that the optimal convergence order of the approximation solution remains optimal.

    Two kinds of nonlinear boundary value problems with generalized p-Laplacian operator are studied in this paper. By using a result on the existence of solutions for variational inequalities, the result on the existence of solution of the nonlinear Dirichlet boundary value problem with generalized p-Laplacian operator is proved. Later, a kind of nonlinear Neumann boundary value problem with generalized p-Laplacian operator is presented. By digging deeply into the relationship between the above two kinds of nonlinear boundary value problems and by using a perturbation resulton the ranges of maximal monotone operators, an abstractresult for the existence of solution of the nonlinear Neumann boundary value problem with generalized p-Laplacianoperatoris obtained. In this paper, somenew prooftechniques areemployed, which extend and complement some of the previous research work.

    The missing response problem in the nonlinear EV(error-in-variables) models is considered, where the explanatory variate X is erroneously measured. With the help of val-idation data, two empirical log-likelihood ratio statistics for the unknown parameters in the model are proposed. It is proved that the proposed statistics are asymptotically chi-square distribution under some mild conditions, and hence can be used to constructing the confidence regions of the parameters.
