On the implementation of a global optimization method for mixed-variable problems by Nannicini, Giacomo

“…We propose several modifications aimed at generalizing and improving these two algorithms: (i) the use of an extended space to represent categorical variables in unary encoding; (ii) a refinement phase to locally improve a candidate solution; (iii) interpolation models without the unisolvence condition, to both help deal with categorical variables, and initiate the optimization before a uniquely determined model is possible; (iv) a master-worker framework to allow asynchronous objective function evaluations in parallel. …”

On subsets of asymptotic bases by Xu, Ji-Zhen, Chen, Yong-Gao

“…In this paper, we prove that if $A$ is an asymptotic basis of order $h$ and $B$ is a nonempty subset of $A$, then either there exists a finite subset $F$ of $A$ such that $F\cup B$ is an asymptotic basis of order $h$, or for any $\varepsilon >0$, there exists a finite subset $F_\varepsilon $ of $A$ such that $d_L(h(F_\varepsilon \cup B))\ge hd_L(B)-\varepsilon $, where $d_L(X)$ denotes the lower asymptotic density of $X$ and $hX$ denotes the set of all $x_1+\cdots +x_h$ with $x_i\in X$ $(1\le i\le h)$. This generalizes a result of Nathanson and Sárközy.…”
