β¦ Synopsis
A quadratic black box is a two-port network with each arc incurring a quadratic cost. This paper studies the properties of the minimum cost function of a quadratic black box with respect to an external flow input. An algorithm is presented with a numerical example for determining the subdifferential mapping of the minimum cost function. The algorithm can be applied to the piecewise quadratic case without change. If all data satisfy the commensurability condition, the algorithm terminates in a finite number of steps.

Deriving the characteristics, order and circularity, of a coupler curve efficiently is presented. The derivation is based on two major concepts. One is the order of a curve is related to the number of the intersection points between this curve and a straight line. The other is the correlation betwee
