For a sufficiently large M, the optimal solution contains any artificial variables in the basis (i.e. positive values) if and only if the problem is not feasible. However, the a-priori selection of an appropriate value for M is not trivial. A way to overcome the need to specify the value of M is described in. [1]
A problem is typically stated as a state of the world containing a number of unknown variables. The constraint program searches for values for all the variables. Temporal concurrent constraint programming (TCC) and non-deterministic temporal concurrent constraint programming (MJV) are variants of constraint programming that can deal with time.
Sequential quadratic programming (SQP) is an iterative method for constrained nonlinear optimization which may be considered a quasi-Newton method. SQP methods are used on mathematical problems for which the objective function and the constraints are twice continuously differentiable , but not necessarily convex.
In the limit as approaches infinity, the Baik-Deift-Johansson theorem says, that the length of the longest increasing subsequence of a randomly permuted sequence of items has a distribution approaching the Tracy–Widom distribution, the distribution of the largest eigenvalue of a random matrix in the Gaussian unitary ensemble.
respectively. If these limits exist at p and are equal there, then this can be referred to as the limit of f(x) at p. [7] If the one-sided limits exist at p, but are unequal, then there is no limit at p (i.e., the limit at p does not exist). If either one-sided limit does not exist at p, then the limit at p also does not exist.
In multivariable calculus, an iterated limit is a limit of a sequence or a limit of a function in the form , = (,), (,) = ((,)),or other similar forms. An iterated limit is only defined for an expression whose value depends on at least two variables. To evaluate such a limit, one takes the limiting process as one of the two variables approaches some number, getting an expression whose value ...

Can all-pairs shortest paths be computed in strongly sub-cubic time, that is, in time O(V 3−ϵ) for some ϵ>0? Can the Schwartz–Zippel lemma for polynomial identity testing be derandomized? Does linear programming admit a strongly polynomial-time algorithm? (This is problem #9 in Smale's list of problems.)
