## Abstract A new topological method is presented to generate the isomer structures of compound clusters with well defined covalent bonds. This method, combined with density functional theory, has been used to perform global optimization of (TiO~2~)__~n~__ (__n__ = 1β6) clusters. Our comprehensive

## Abstract Heuristic methods, such as tabu search, are efficient for global optimizations. Most studies, however, have focused on constraintβfree optimizations. Penalty functions are commonly used to deal with constraints for global optimization algorithms in dealing with constraints. This is some
The present paper consists of two parts. In part 1, a new technique of treating Neumann boundary conditions with an explicit Chebyshev collocation method is developed. Any Neumann boundary condition can be satisfied by adjusting all the Chebyshev coefficients of a solution, which results in a small
