In this paper we treat of the number of solutions of certain piecewise linear (p.l.) equations and of necessary and sufficient conditions for a PL function to be a homeomorphism.

In this problem, the optimal path is one that maximizes the expected utility, with the utility function being piecewise-linear and concave. Such a utility function can be used to approximate nonlinear ...

A new method that utilizes multibranch Rao–Wilton–Glisson (MB-RWG) functions and the electric and magnetic current combined field integral equations is proposed for analyzing piecewise homogeneous ...
