A propos de ce titre

Synopsis :

The Mathematics of Nonlinear Programming Covers classical optimization notions from calculus and proceeds smoothly to a study of convex functions. This book offers material on basic numerical methods, least squares, Karush-Kuhn-Tucker theory, penalty functions, and Lagrange multipliers. It includes many exercises chosen to highlight the fundamental ideas. Full description

Présentation de l'éditeur:

Nonlinear programming provides an excellent opportunity to explore an interesting variety of pure and solidly applicable mathematics, numerical analysis, and computing. This text develops some of the ideas and techniques involved in the optimization methods using calculus, leading to the study of convexity. This is followed by material on basic numerical methods, least squares, the Karush-Kuhn-Tucker theorem, penalty functions, and Lagrange multipliers. The authors have aimed their presentation at the student who has a working knowledge of matrix algebra and advanced calculus, but has had no previous exposure to optimization.
