Stochastic optimization

BRST algorithm

Boender-Rinnooy-Stougie-Timmer algorithm (BRST) is an optimization algorithm suitable for finding global optimum of black box functions. In their paper Boender et al. describe their method as a stochastic method involving a combination of sampling, clustering and local search, terminating with a range of confidence intervals on the value of the global minimum. The algorithm of Boender et al. has been modified by Timmer. Timmer considered several clustering methods. Based on experiments a method named "multi level single linkage" was deemed most accurate. Csendes' algorithms are implementations of the algorithm of [Boender et al.] and originated the public domain software product GLOBAL. The local algorithms used are a random direction, linear search algorithm also used by Törn, and a quasi—Newton algorithm not using the derivative of the function. The results show the dependence of the result on the auxiliary local algorithm used. (Wikipedia).

Roberta Iseppi: The BV construction in the setting of NCG: application to a matrix model

It is known that there exists a strong connection between noncommutative geometry and gauge-invariant theories, due to the fact that gauge theories are naturally induced by the spectral triples. Thus it is reasonable to try to insert in the setting of noncommutative geometry also procedure

Walter Van SUIJLEKOM - Renormalization Hopf Algebras and Gauge Theories

We give an overview of the Hopf algebraic approach to renormalization, with a focus on gauge theories. We illustrate this with Kreimer's gauge theory theorem from 2006 and sketch a proof. It relates Hopf ideals generated by Slavnov-Taylor identities to the Hochschild cocycles that are give

Solving an logarithmic equation

👉 Learn how to solve logarithmic equations. Logarithmic equations are equations with logarithms in them. To solve a logarithmic equation, we first isolate the logarithm part of the equation. After we have isolated the logarithm part of the equation, we then get rid of the logarithm. This i
