This paper considers a robust decentralized $H_\infty$ control problem for uncertain large-scale interconnected systems. The uncertainties are assumed to be time-invariant, norm-bounded, and exist in subsystems. A design method based on the bounded real lemma is developed for a dynamic output feedback controller, which is reduced to a feasibility problem for a nonlinear matrix inequality (NMI). It is proposed to solve the NMI iteratively by the idea of homotopy, where some of the variables are fixed alternately on each iteration to reduce the NMI to a linear matrix inequality (LMI). A decentralized controller for the nominal system is computed first by imposing structural constraints on the coefficient matrices gradually. Then, the decentralized controller is modified again gradually to cope with the uncertainties. A given example shows the efficiency of this method.

In this study, the homotopy perturbation method (HPM) is applied to free vibration analysis of beam on elastic foundation. This numerical method is applied on three different axially loaded cases, namely: 1) one end fixed, the other end simply supported; 2) both ends fixed and 3) both ends simply supported cases. Analytical solutions and frequency factors are evaluated for different ratios of axial load N acting on the beam to Euler buckling load, $N_r$. The application of HPM for the particular problem in this study gives results which are in excellent agreement with both analytical solutions and the variational iteration method (VIM) solutions for all the cases considered in this study and the differential transform method (DTM) results available in the literature for the fixed-pinned case.

In this paper, it has been attempted to present a powerful analytical approach called Homotopy Perturbation Method (HPM). Free vibration of an electrostatically actuated microbeam is considered to study analytically. The effect of important parameters on the response of the system is considered. Some comparisons are presented to verify the results with other researcher's results and numerical solutions. It has been indicated that HPM could be easily extend to any nonlinear equation. We try to provide an easy method to achieve high accurate solution which valid for whole domain.

In the present work, the mathematical model of wire coating in a straight annular die is developed for unsteady second grade fluid in the form of partial differential equation. The Optimal Homotopy Asymptotic Method (OHAM) is applied for obtaining the solution of the model problem. This method provides us a suitable way to control the convergence of the series solution using the auxiliary constants which are optimally determined.

In this paper, we study a strong k-deformation retract derived from a relative k-homotopy and investigate its properties in relation to both a k-homotopic thinning and the k-fundamental group. Moreover, we show that the k-fundamental group of a wedge product of closed k-curves not k-contractible is a free group by the use of some properties of both a strong k-deformation retract and a digital covering. Finally, we write an algorithm for calculating the k-fundamental group of a dosed k-curve by the use of a k-homotopic thinning.

The real moment-angle complex (or, more generally, real polyhedral product) and its real toric space have recently attracted much attention in toric topology. The aim of this paper is to give two interesting remarks regarding real polyhedral products and real toric spaces. That is, we first show that Moore's conjecture holds to be true for certain real polyhedral products. In general, real polyhedral products show some drastic difference between the rational and torsion homotopy groups. Our result shows that at least in terms of the homotopy exponent at a prime this is not the case for real polyhedral products associated to a simplicial complex whose minimal missing faces are all k-simplices with $k{\geq}2$. Moreover, we also show a structural theorem for a finite group G acting simplicially on the real toric space. In other words, we show that G always contains an element of order 2, and so the order of G should be even.

In a recent paper, M.A. Noor et al. (Hindawi publishing corporation, Mathematical Problems in Engineering, Volume 2008, Article ID 696734, 11 pages, doi:10.1155/2008/696734) proposed the variational homotopy perturbation method (VHPM) for solving higher dimentional initial boundary value problems. In this paper, we consider the proposed method for analytic treatment of the linear and nonlinear ordinary differential equations, homogeneous or inhomogeneous. The results reveal that the proposed method is very effective and simple and can be applied for other linear and nonlinear problems in mathematical.

In this study, the mathematical model that describes blood cell development in the bone marrow (i.e., hematopoiesis) has been studied via the Homotopy Perturbation Method (HPM). The results from the present work compared very well with the numerical solutions from published literature. This work has shown that the HPM is viable for solving delay differential equations born from hematopoiesis problem. The influence of the proliferating cells loss rate, time delay rate and the phase re-entry rate on the population densities of both the proliferating and resting cells were also determined through the underlined procedure.

Let G : R$^n$${\times}$R\longrightarrowR$^n$ be defined by a Homotopy solving a system F($\chi$)=0 of nonlinear equations. For the vector v$\^$k/ with G'(u$\sub$k/)v$\^$k/=0, ∥v$\^$k/∥=1 where uk is one point in Zero Curve let u$\sub$0/$\^$k/=v$\^$k/＋$\tau$v$\^$k/ be the first prediction for the next point u$\^$k+1/, $\tau$$\in$(0, 1). When u$\sub$0/$\^$k/ approaching too losely to some unwanted point. to follow the Zero Curve may occur the returning or cycling. One lion for it is discussed and tile parametrizied Homotopy algorithm for solving F($\chi$)=0 with it been established. Also some theorems by means of the regular value have been discussed for Zero Curves of G(u)=0 and some theorems for algorithm have been obtained.

Let W and V be manifolds of dimension m + 2, M a locally flat submanifold of V whose dimension is m. Let $f:W{\rightarrow}V$ be a homotopy equivalence. The problem we study in this paper is the following: When is f homotopic to another homotopy equivalence $g:W{\rightarrow}V$ such that g is transverse regular along M and such that $g{\mid}g^{-1}(M):g^{-1}(M){\rightarrow}M$ is a simple homotopy equivalence? $L{\acute{o}}pez$ de Medrano (1970) called this problem the weak h-regularity problem. We solve this problem applying the codimension two surgery theory developed by the author (1973). We will work in higher dimensions, assuming that $$m{\geq_-}5$$.
