  2. Linear complementarity problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_complementarity_problem

    If M is positive definite, any algorithm for solving (strictly) convex QPs can solve the LCP. Specially designed basis-exchange pivoting algorithms, such as Lemke's algorithm and a variant of the simplex algorithm of Dantzig have been used for decades. Besides having polynomial time complexity, interior-point methods are also effective in practice.

  3. Lattice problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lattice_problem

    In computer science, lattice problems are a class of optimization problems related to mathematical objects called lattices.The conjectured intractability of such problems is central to the construction of secure lattice-based cryptosystems: lattice problems are an example of NP-hard problems which have been shown to be average-case hard, providing a test case for the security of cryptographic ...

  4. Geometric constraint solving - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_constraint_solving

    Geometric constraint solving is constraint satisfaction in a computational geometry setting, which has primary applications in computer aided design. [1] A problem to be solved consists of a given set of geometric elements and a description of geometric constraints between the elements, which could be non-parametric (tangency, horizontality, coaxiality, etc) or parametric (like distance, angle ...

  5. Bloch's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloch's_theorem

    It is helpful to write the numbers C j in a different form, by choosing three numbers θ 1, θ 2, θ 3 with e 2πiθ j = C j: (+) = Again, the θ j are three numbers which do not depend on r. Define k = θ 1 b 1 + θ 2 b 2 + θ 3 b 3 , where b j are the reciprocal lattice vectors (see above).

  6. Conjugate gradient method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conjugate_gradient_method

    With this substitution, vectors p are always the same as vectors z, so there is no need to store vectors p. Thus, every iteration of these steepest descent methods is a bit cheaper compared to that for the conjugate gradient methods. However, the latter converge faster, unless a (highly) variable and/or non-SPD preconditioner is used, see above.

  7. Vectorization (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vectorization_(mathematics)

    Vectorization is a unitary transformation from the space of n×n matrices with the Frobenius (or Hilbert–Schmidt) inner product to C n 2: ⁡ (†) = ⁡ † ⁡ (), where the superscript † denotes the conjugate transpose.

  8. Shortest path problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shortest_path_problem

    Shortest path (A, C, E, D, F), blue, between vertices A and F in the weighted directed graph. In graph theory, the shortest path problem is the problem of finding a path between two vertices (or nodes) in a graph such that the sum of the weights of its constituent edges is minimized.

  9. Parallelogram of force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallelogram_of_force

    Figure 1: Parallelogram construction for adding vectors. This construction has the same result as moving F 2 so its tail coincides with the head of F 1, and taking the net force as the vector joining the tail of F 1 to the head of F 2. This procedure can be repeated to add F 3 to the resultant F 1 + F 2, and so forth.
