Abstract

This paper presents an advanced mathematical analysis and simplification of the quadratic programming problem arising from fuzzy clustering with generalized capacity constraints. We extend previous work by incorporating broader balancing constraints, allowing for weighted data points and clusters with specified capacities. Through new algebraic manipulation techniques, the original high-dimensional problem is decomposed into smaller, more tractable subproblems. Additionally, we introduce efficient algorithms for solving the reduced systems by leveraging properties of the problem's structure. Comprehensive examples with synthetic and real datasets illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed techniques in practical scenarios, with a performance comparison against existing methods. A convergence analysis of the proposed algorithm is also included, demonstrating its reliability. Limitations and contexts where the application of these techniques may not be efficient are discussed.

Average Chord Lengths in a Triangle

Let $P$ be a point inside a triangle $T$. We consider the average length of the chords of $T$ through $P$, where the direction of the chord is chosen uniformly. An elementary formula is obtained in terms of the distances from $P$ to the sides and vertices of the triangle. Several classical triangle centers give especially simple specializations. For example, if $I$ is the incenter, then \[ M_T(I)=\frac{2r}{\pi} \log\left(\cot\frac A4\cot\frac B4\cot\frac C4\right). \] Our main result is the sharp inequality \[ M_T(P)\le \frac{p}{\pi\sqrt3}\log(2+\sqrt3), \] valid simultaneously for every triangle of perimeter $p$ and every interior point $P$. Thus, among all such pairs $(T,P)$, the largest possible average chord length occurs only when $T$ is equilateral and $P$ is its center. The proof is an elementary symmetrization argument. We close with brief remarks relating the problem to the radial center of a convex body, the electrostatic potential center of a triangle, and dual quermassintegrals.

A Proof of Liu's Conjecture on the Fundamental Triangle Inequality

Let $a,b,c$ be the side lengths of a triangle, and let $R$ and $r$ denote its circumradius and inradius, respectively. We prove a conjecture of Liu stating that \[\sum_{\mathrm{cyc}} \left(\frac{a(b+c-a)}{bc}\right)^k \geq 2+\left(\frac{2r}{R}\right)^k,~~k>1, \] with the reverse inequality for $0<k<1$. The proof reduces the problem to three positive variables with fixed sum and product. We also determine the equality cases.
