The main result in this paper is the determination of the Fréchet derivative of an analytic function of a bounded operator, tangentially to the space of all bounded operators. Some applied problems from statistics and numerical analysis are included as a motivation for this study. The perturbation operator (increment) is not of any special form and is not supposed to commute with the operator at which the derivative is evaluated. This generality is important for the applications. In the Hermitian case, moreover, some results on perturbation of an isolated eigenvalue, its eigenprojection, and its eigenvector if the eigenvalue is simple, are also included. Although these results are known in principle, they are not in general formulated in terms of arbitrary perturbations as required for the applications. Moreover, these results are presented as corollaries to the main theorem, so that this paper also provides a short, essentially self-contained review of these aspects of perturbation theory.

Abstract We give the hyperasymptotic expansion of the energy of a static quark-antiquark pair with a precision that includes the effects of the subleading renormalon. The terminants associated to the first and second renormalon are incorporated in the analysis when necessary. In particular, we determine the normalization of the leading renormalon of the force and, consequently, of the subleading renormalon of the static potential. We obtain $$ {Z}_3^F $$ Z 3 F (nf = 3) = $$ 2{Z}_3^V $$ 2 Z 3 V (nf = 3) = 0.37(17). The precision we reach in strict perturbation theory is next-to-next-to-next-to-leading logarithmic resummed order both for the static potential and for the force. We find that the resummation of large logarithms and the inclusion of the leading terminants associated to the renormalons are compulsory to get accurate determinations of $$ {\Lambda}_{\overline{\mathrm{MS}}} $$ Λ MS ¯ when fitting to short-distance lattice data of the static energy. We obtain $$ {\Lambda}_{\overline{\mathrm{MS}}}^{\left({n}_f=3\right)} $$ Λ MS ¯ n f = 3 = 338(12) MeV and α(Mz) = 0.1181(9). We have also MS found strong consistency checks that the ultrasoft correction to the static energy can be computed at weak coupling in the energy range we have studied.

AbstractIn this paper a class of optimal control problems with distributed parameters is considered. The governing equations are nonlinear first order partial differential equations that arise in the study of heterogeneous reactors and control of chemical processes. The main focus of the present paper is the mathematical theory underlying the algorithm. A conditional gradient method is used to devise an algorithm for solving such optimal control problems. A formula for the Fréchet derivative of the objective function is obtained, and its properties are studied. A necessary condition for optimality in terms of the Fréchet derivative is presented, and then it is shown that any accumulation point of the sequence of admissible controls generated by the algorithm satisfies this necessary condition for optimality.
