A fundamental problem in linear inequalities with applications to the travelling salesman problem
(Springer-Verlag; The Mathematical Programming Society, 1972-02)
We consider a system of m linearly independent equality constraints in n nonnegative variables: Ax = b, x ≧ 0. The fundamental problem that we discuss is the following: suppose we are given a set of r linearly independent ...
An investigation of the relationship between displacements of the finger and wrist joints and the extrinsic finger flexor tendons
(Elsevier, 1978)
Several investigators have developed biomechanical models of finger flexor tendon displacements during pinching or gripping exertions of hands. Landsmeer has developed the most comprehensive set of models for this purpose. ...
On the number of solutions to the complementarity problem and spanning properties of complementary cones
(Elsevier, 1972-01)
The relationship between the number of solutions to the complementarity problem, w = Mz + q, w[ges]0, z[ges]0, wTz=0, the right-hand constant vector q and the matrix M are explored. The main results proved in this work are ...
Some biomechanical aspects of the carpal tunnel
(Elsevier, 1979)
Previously presented evidence indicates that carpal tunnel syndrome is related to compression of the median nerve inside the carpal tunnel. Biomechanical arguments in which the extrinsic finger flexor tendons inside the ...
Generic properties of the complementarity problem
(Springer-Verlag; The Mathematical Programming Society, 1973-12)
Given f : R + n → R n , the complementarity problem is to find a solution to x ≥ 0, f(x) ≥ 0, and 〈 x, f(x) 〉 = 0. Under the condition that f is continuously differentiable, we prove that for a generic set of such an f , ...
The graph of an abstract polytope
(Springer-Verlag; The Mathematical Programming Society, 1973-12)
Recently a generalization of simple convex polytopes to combinatorial entities known as abstract polytopes has been proposed. The graph of an abstract polytope of dimension d is a regular connected graph of degree d. Given ...
