  2. Linear programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_programming

    Linear programming (LP), also called linear optimization, is a method to achieve the best outcome (such as maximum profit or lowest cost) in a mathematical model whose requirements and objective are represented by linear relationships. Linear programming is a special case of mathematical programming (also known as mathematical optimization).

  3. Mathematical formulation of the Standard Model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_formulation...

    This article describes the mathematics of the Standard Model of particle physics, a gauge quantum field theory containing the internal symmetries of the unitary product group SU(3) × SU(2) × U(1). The theory is commonly viewed as describing the fundamental set of particles – the leptons, quarks, gauge bosons and the Higgs boson.

  4. LP-type problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LP-type_problem

    Some geometric optimization problems may be expressed as LP-type problems in which the number of elements in the LP-type formulation is significantly greater than the number of input data values for the optimization problem. As an example, consider a collection of n points in the plane, each

  5. Weak formulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weak_formulation

    This is a formulation of the Lax–Milgram theorem which relies on properties of the symmetric part of the bilinear form. It is not the most general form. It is not the most general form. Let V {\displaystyle V} be a real Hilbert space and a ( ⋅ , ⋅ ) {\displaystyle a(\cdot ,\cdot )} a bilinear form on V {\displaystyle V} , which is

  6. Linear-fractional programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear-fractional_programming

    In mathematical optimization, linear-fractional programming (LFP) is a generalization of linear programming (LP). Whereas the objective function in a linear program is a linear function, the objective function in a linear-fractional program is a ratio of two linear functions. A linear program can be regarded as a special case of a linear ...

  7. Linear complementarity problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_complementarity_problem

    In mathematical optimization theory, the linear complementarity problem (LCP) arises frequently in computational mechanics and encompasses the well-known quadratic programming as a special case. It was proposed by Cottle and Dantzig in 1968.

  8. Kepler conjecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kepler_conjecture

    If a lower bound (for the function value) could be found for every one of these configurations that was greater than the value of the function for the cubic close packing arrangement, then the Kepler conjecture would be proved. To find lower bounds for all cases involved solving about 100,000 linear programming problems.

  9. Constraint satisfaction problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constraint_satisfaction...

    Constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs) are mathematical questions defined as a set of objects whose state must satisfy a number of constraints or limitations. CSPs represent the entities in a problem as a homogeneous collection of finite constraints over variables, which is solved by constraint satisfaction methods.
