Subject: Constrained Minimization of the Uniform Norm
Dear colleagues,
We are interested in the examples of the constrained minimization of the
uniform norm problems in the space of polynomials. Such problems arise in
optimization of numerical algorithms, construction of electrical filters,
optimal control, signal processing... Three typical examples of such
problems are listed below. The examples of the similar minimization
problems involving rational functions or uniform norm as a constraint
are also welcome. The examples when the degree $n$ of the polynomial
(or rational function) is supposed to be high $n\approx 1000$ are of
particular interest to us.
Our research team elaborated an effective approach to the above problems
based on the techniques of algebraic geometry. Now we're adapting those
techniques to the real time problems from different branches of science
and industry.

The uniform norm of the function $P(x)$
on the closed subset of the real axis $E$ is the value
$||P||_E:= \max_{x\in E} |P(x)|$.
1. $E$ is a collection of real segments. Minimize the
norm $||P_n||_E$ of a degree $n$ polynomial provided the leading
coefficient is fixed. The roots of the solution (known also as
a Chebyshev polynomial on several segments) may be taken as the
parameters for iterative inversion of nondegenerate symmetric matrices
with spectrum on $E$.
2. $E$ is a real segment. Minimize the norm $||P_n||_E$
of a polynomial when several linear combinations of its coefficients
are fixed. If several leading coefficients of $P_n$ are fixed, this is
the problem of E.I.Zolotarev. For the V.A.Markov problem, there is
exactly one linear constraint. In the case of the A.A.Markov problem, this
constraint has the form: $P_n'(x_0)=const$ for some $x_0\in E$.
3. Among all degree $n$ polynomials that approximate the exponential
function at $x=0$ to the given order $p\le n$, e.g.
$P_n(x)=1+x+x^2/2+...+x^p/p!+o(x^p)$, find the one that remains
in the limits $-1\le P_n(x)\le 1$ on the maximal interval
$[-L,0]$, $L$ is positive. The roots of the
solution (known as optimal stability polynomial) may be
taken as the time steps in the stable explicit
multistage Runge-Kutta method for a (stiff) ODE system.

Subject: Special Issue of ETNA on Saddle Point Problems
Special issue of ETNA on
"Saddle point problems: numerical solution and applications"
Dear Colleagues,
The journal Electronic Transactions on Numerical Analysis
(ETNA) will devote a special issue to the solution of saddle
point problems. These problems arise in systems of PDEs with
conservation laws (including Stokes and Navier-Stokes equations,
incompressible linear elasticity, magnetostatics, etc.), in
constrained optimization problems, in generalized least squares
problems, and elsewhere. Such problems pervade computational
science and engineering, and their efficient numerical
solution is of paramount importance. However, to compute
accurate solutions to saddle point problems at a reasonable cost
has proved difficult. As a consequence, a significant effort
has been devoted to define proper formulations, (stabilized)
discretizations, and fast solution methods for discretized
saddle point problems and their generalizations.
The present issue aims to attract papers on the continuous
and discrete formulation of saddle point problems in all
aspects of computational science, both for specific problems
and in general, and on efficient solution techniques for the
resulting systems of equations. Papers describing novel
applications leading to saddle point problems are also of
interest.
Manuscripts should be submitted electronically to one of the
special issue editors listed below. The deadline for submission
of papers is December 15, 2004. All submissions will undergo
the standard refereeing process used for regular ETNA papers.
The issue is expected to appear by the end of 2005. For more
information on ETNA, see the web site
http://etna.mcs.kent.edu/
If you have any questions, please contact the editors of the
special issue.
