For the nonsymmetric saddle point problems with nonsymmetric positive definite (1,1) parts, the modified generalized shift-splitting (MGSSP) preconditioner as well as the MGSSP iteration method are derived in this paper, which generalize the MSSP preconditioner and the MSSP iteration method newly developed by Huang and Su (J. Comput. Appl. Math. 2017), respectively. The convergent and semi-convergent analysis of the MGSSP iteration method are presented, and we prove that this method is unconditionally convergent and semi-convergent. In addition, some spectral properties of the preconditioned matrix are carefully analyzed. Numerical results demonstrate the robustness and effectiveness of the MGSSP preconditioner and the MGSSP iteration method, and also illustrate that the MGSSP iteration method outperforms the GSS and GMSS iteration methods, and the MGSSP preconditioner is superior to the shift-splitting (SS), generalized SS (GSS), modified SS (MSS) and generalized MSS (GMSS) preconditioners for the GMRES method for solving the nonsymmetric saddle point problems.

State-dependent bipartite networks with state-cognizant receivers and state-informed transmitters are studied. Such networks have no nodes that both transmit and receive. Examples are the multi-access channel, the broadcast channel, and the interference channel. Without computing the capacity region of the network, it is shown that if the state sequence is ergodic and autonomous, and if, conditionally on the state sequence, the network law is memoryless, then the network capacity region does not depend on whether the state information is provided to the encoders causally or noncausally.
