The canonical dual/polar transformation methods and the associated bi–duality and triality theories proposed recently in non–convex variational problems are generalized into fully nonlinear dissipative dynamical systems governed by non–smooth constitutive laws and boundary conditions. It is shown that, by this method, non–smooth and non–convex Hamilton systems can be reformulated into certain smooth dual, complementary and polar variational problems. Based on a newly proposed polar Hamiltonian, a nice bipolarity variational principle is established for three–dimensional non–smooth elastodynamical systems, and a potentially powerful complementary variational principle can be used for solving unilateral variational inequality problems governed by non–smooth boundary conditions.

The following article has been included in a multiple retraction: Global Optimization Solutions to a Class of Non-convex Quadratic Minimization Problems with Quadratic Constraints; Yubo Yuan. http://mms.sagepub.com/content/early/2015/07/06/1081286515591086.abstract In 2015 SAGE were made aware of concerns regarding the Special Issue of Mathematics & Mechanics of Solids on Advances in Canonical Duality Theory, guest-edited by Professor David Gao. At the request of the Guest Editor, the Special Issue has been retracted, due to conflict of interest regarding Professor Gao’s role as Guest Editor and co-author on a number of submitted papers. In addition the peer review process was less rigorous than the journal requires. The Guest Editor takes full responsibility for the retraction.

Hajilarov. http://mms.sagepub.com/content/early/2015/07/06/1081286515591084.abstract In 2015 SAGE were made aware of concerns regarding the Special Issue of Mathematics & Mechanics of Solids on Advances in Canonical Duality Theory, guest-edited by Professor David Gao. At the request of the Guest Editor, the Special Issue has been retracted, due to conflict of interest regarding Professor Gao’s role as Guest Editor and co-author on a number of submitted papers.

Canonical Duality Theory: Connections between Nonconvex Mechanics and Global Optimization
  • Jan 1, 2009
  • David Y Gao + 1 more

This chapter presents a comprehensive review and some new developments on canonical duality theory for nonconvex systems. Based on a tricanonical form for quadratic minimization problems, an insightful relation between canonical dual transformations and nonlinear (or extended) Lagrange multiplier methods is presented. Connections between complementary variational principles in nonconvex mechanics and Lagrange duality in global optimization are also revealed within the framework of the canonical duality theory. Based on this framework, traditional saddle Lagrange duality and the so-called biduality theory, discovered in convex Hamiltonian systems and d.c. programming, are presented in a unified way; together, they serve as a foundation for the triality theory in nonconvex systems. Applications are illustrated by a class of nonconvex problems in continuum mechanics and global optimization. It is shown that by the use of the canonical dual transformation, these nonconvex constrained primal problems can be converted into certain simple canonical dual problems, which can be solved to obtain all extremal points. Optimality conditions (both local and global) for these extrema can be identified by the triality theory. Some new results on general nonconvex programming with nonlinear constraints are also presented as applications of this canonical duality theory. This review brings some fundamentally new insights into nonconvex mechanics, global optimization, and computational science.
