Nonlinear Conjugate Gradient Method for Multiobjective Optimization Problems of Interval-Valued Maps

This paper proposes a nonlinear conjugate gradient method with Wolfe line search for solving unconstrained multiobjective interval optimization problems, providing proofs of global convergence for general and specific algorithmic parameters (Fletcher-Reeves, Conjugate Descent, Dai-Yuan, and modified Dai-Yuan) alongside numerical performance evaluations.

Cohen-Macaulayness of Local Models via Shellability of the Admissible Set

This paper proves that augmented admissible sets in Iwahori-Weyl groups are dual EL-shellable, thereby resolving a conjecture of Görtz and establishing the Cohen-Macaulayness of special fibers for local models with parahoric level structure—including previously open cases in residue characteristic 2 and non-reduced root systems—through a characteristic-free, intrinsic construction that yields an explicit shelling and inductive building procedure.

Ground States of Attractive Fermi Schrödinger Systems with Ring-Shaped Potentials

This paper establishes the existence and nonexistence of ground states for mass-critical N-coupled attractive Fermi nonlinear Schrödinger systems in ring-shaped potentials based on the strength of interactions relative to a critical constant derived from a finite-rank Lieb-Thirring inequality, while also characterizing the mass concentration behavior of these states as the interaction strength approaches this critical threshold.

Beamforming Optimization for Extremely Large-Scale RIS-Aided Near-Field Secure Communications

This paper proposes a joint optimization algorithm for transmit precoding and discrete phase-shift reflection in an extremely large-scale RIS-aided near-field secure communication system with artificial jamming, effectively maximizing secrecy rates even when eavesdroppers are located close to the RIS and in the same direction as legitimate users.
