Summary: The paper formulates the Load Flow problem in radial electricity distribution networks as an unconstrained Riemannian optimization problem, and introduces a Riemannian approximate Newton method tailored to the LF problem. Extensive numerical comparisons show that the proposed method outperforms standard optimization methods and achieves comparable performance with the traditional Newton-Raphson method.

Summary: The article presents tools for optimizing over a set of flags, which is a smooth manifold known as the flag manifold, including the Grassmannian as a special case. Various differential geometric objects are derived with closed-form analytic expressions for Riemannian optimization algorithms on the flag manifold, introducing systems of extrinsic coordinates to parameterize points, metrics, tangent spaces, geodesics, distances, parallel transports, gradients, Hessians in terms of matrices and matrix operations, allowing for the formulation of steepest descent, conjugate gradient, and Newton algorithms using standard numerical linear algebra.

Summary: The paper presents a Riemannian proximal gradient method and its accelerated variant for optimization problems constrained on a manifold. Global convergence and a convergence rate of O(1/k) for the RPG algorithm are established, with the sequence generated converging to a single stationary point under the assumption of a Riemannian KL property. Additionally, the flexibility of RPG on the Stiefel manifold covers a variety of problems, including sparse PCA.

Summary: Optimization problems on the generalized Stiefel manifold are widely encountered in various scientific and engineering fields. Applications include computational science, statistics, machine learning, and deep learning. The standard geometric components for the generalized Stiefel manifold may be inefficient, but this paper proposes a technique called Riemannian preconditioning to address the issue and develop new geometric components. The effectiveness of Riemannian preconditioning is demonstrated theoretically and numerically.

Summary: In recent years, Riemannian geometry has been widely applied to solve nonlinear programming problems, and a class of neurodynamic flow approaches has been proposed, which have global convergence and feasibility in seeking the minimum point of convex and quasi-convex minimum problems. Furthermore, the approach can also be adapted to competitive neural networks and image and signal processing in compressive sensing.

Summary: This article presents the design of a Dual-Function Radar-Communication (DFRC) system aided by an Intelligent Reflecting Surface (IRS). The optimized radar precoding matrix and IRS parameters aim to maximize the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) at the radar receiver and the signal-to-interference-and-noise ratio (SINR) at the communication receivers. The problem is decomposed into waveform and IRS parameter design, and addressed through alternating optimization. The design insights include the selection of IRS size, location, and the comparative analysis of single or double IRS reflections.

Summary: We present uniqueness results for anisotropic Calderon problems on transversally anisotropic manifolds. Additionally, we provide a convexity result for the range of Dirichlet-to-Neumann maps on Riemannian manifolds with a zero potential. Furthermore, we discuss results on Calderon-type inverse problems associated with semilinear elliptic equations on Riemannian manifolds.

Summary: This paper proposes a U-shaped neural network (U-SPDNet) based on SPD manifolds for visual classification. The U-SPDNet consists of an encoder and a decoder to extract and reconstruct image features, respectively, and addresses the degradation of structural information. Additionally, skip connections and geometric operations are employed to enhance the representational capacity of U-SPDNet, resulting in improved accuracy on multiple datasets.
