Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Nonlinear Functional Analysis and Optimization Theory are two closed related two research fields in applied mathematics. A lot of problems such as differential equations and integral equations in nonlinear analysis, can be solved via optimization methods. In particular, fixed/zero-point problems nonlinear operators are under the spotlight of mathematicians working on optimization theory. Recently, a number of optimization methods, such as, projection-like methods, have been investigated for solving various nonlinear equations. Many important applications have been carried out in engineering fields, such as, transportation, economics, medicine, and machine learning.

In this Special Issue, we will focus on high-quality research on nonlinear functional analysis and optimization theory, in particular complementary problems, differential equation, integral equations, equilibrium problems, monotone operators, fixed/zero points, convex feasibility problems, split feasibility problems and their applications to the real world.

Please note that all submitted papers must be within the general scope of the Symmetry journal.

In our paper, we present a sparse quasi-Newton method, called the sparse direct Broyden method, for solving sparse nonlinear equations. The method can be seen as a Broyden-like method and is a least change update satisfying the sparsity condition and direct tangent condition simultaneously. The local and q-superlinear convergence is presented based on the bounded deterioration property and Dennis–Moré condition. By adopting a nonmonotone line search, we establish the global and superlinear convergence. Moreover, the unit step length is essentially accepted. Numerical results demonstrate that the sparse direct Broyden method is effective and competitive for large-scale nonlinear equations. Full article

In real Banach spaces, the concept of α-well-posedness is extended to the class of generalized hemivariational inequalities systems consisting of two parts which are of symmetric structure mutually. First, certain concepts of α-well-posedness for generalized hemivariational inequalities systems are put forward. Second, certain metric characterizations of α-well-posedness for generalized hemivariational inequalities systems are presented. Lastly, certain equivalence results between strong α-well-posedness of both the system of generalized hemivariational inequalities and its system of derived inclusion problems are established.

In this paper, we define a new Kantorovich-type (p,q)-generalization of the Balázs–Szabados operators. We derive a recurrence formula, and with the help of this formula, we give explicit formulas for the first and second-order moments, which follow a symmetric pattern. We estimate the second and fourth-order central moments. We examine the local approximation properties in terms of modulus of continuity, we give a Voronovskaja type theorem, and we give the weighted approximation properties of the operators. Full article

We consider the Cauchy problem of the three-dimensional primitive equations of geophysics. By using the Littlewood–Paley decomposition theory and Fourier localization technique, we prove the global well-posedness for the Cauchy problem with the Prandtl number P=1 in variable exponent Fourier–Besov spaces for small initial data in these spaces. In addition, we prove the Gevrey class regularity of the solution. For the primitive equations of geophysics, our results can be considered as a symmetry in variable exponent Fourier–Besov spaces.

Data pre-processing is a major difficulty in the knowledge discovery process, especially feature selection on a large amount of data. In literature, various approaches have been suggested to overcome this difficulty. Unlike most approaches, Rough Set Theory (RST) can discover data de-pendency and reduce the attributes without the need for further information. In RST, the discernibility matrix is the mathematical foundation for computing such reducts. Although it proved its efficiency in feature selection, unfortunately it is computationally expensive on high dimensional data. Algorithm complexity is related to the search of the minimal subset of attributes, which requires computing an exponential number of possible subsets. To overcome this limitation, many RST enhancements have been proposed. Contrary to recent methods, this paper implements RST concepts in an iterated manner using R language. First, the dataset was partitioned into a smaller number of subsets and each subset processed independently to generate its own minimal attribute set. Within the iterations, only minimal elements in the discernibility matrix were considered. Finally, the iterated outputs were compared, and those common among all reducts formed the minimal one (Core attributes). A comparison with another novel proposed algorithm using three benchmark datasets was performed. The proposed approach showed its efficiency in calculating the same minimal attribute sets with less execution time. Full article

In a Hadamard manifold, let the VIP and SVI represent a variational inequality problem and a system of variational inequalities, respectively, where the SVI consists of two variational inequalities which are of symmetric structure mutually. This article designs two parallel algorithms to solve the SVI via the subgradient extragradient approach, where each algorithm consists of two parts which are of symmetric structure mutually. It is proven that, if the underlying vector fields are of monotonicity, then the sequences constructed by these algorithms converge to a solution of the SVI. We also discuss applications of these algorithms for approximating solutions to the VIP. Our theorems complement some recent and important ones in the literature. Full article

The study of even functions is important from the symmetry theory point of view because their graphs are symmetrical to the Oy axis; therefore, it is essential to analyse the properties of even functions for x greater than 0. Since the functions involved in Wilker–Huygens-type inequalities are even, in our approach, we use cosine polynomials expansion method in order to provide new refinements of the above-mentioned inequalities.
