Starting with the fundamentals of classical smooth optimization and building on established convex programming techniques, this research monograph presents a foundation and methodology for modern nonconvex nondifferentiable optimization. It provides readers with theory, methods, and applications of nonconvex and nondifferentiable optimization in ......
Iterative methods use successive approximations to obtain more accurate solutions. Iterative Methods and Preconditioners for Systems of Linear Equations presents historical background, derives complete convergence estimates for all methods, illustrates and provides Matlab codes for all methods, and studies and tests all preconditioners first as ......
Matrix Analysis and Computations introduces the basics of matrix analysis and presents representative methods and their corresponding theories in matrix computations. In this textbook, readers will find: The matrix theory necessary for direct and iterative methods for solving systems of linear equations. Systematic methods and rigorous theory on ......
Based on a master's program course at the University of Southern California, the main goal of Mathematics and Tools for Financial Engineering is to train students to use mathematical and engineering tools to understand and solve financial problems. The book contains numerous examples and problems and is divided into two parts: Part I covers ......
Lectures on Stochastic Programming: Modeling and Theory, Third Edition covers optimization problems involving uncertain parameters for which stochastic models are available. These problems occur in almost all areas of science and engineering. This substantial revision of the previous edition presents a modern theory of stochastic programming, ......
Partial differential equations (PDEs) are the main tool to describe spatially and temporally extended systems in nature. PDEs usually come with parameters, and the study of the parameter dependence of their solutions is an important task. Letting one parameter vary typically yields a branch of solutions, and at special parameter values, new ......
This self-contained textbook covers the fundamentals of two basic topics of linear functional analysis: locally convex spaces and harmonic analysis. Readers will find detailed introductions to topological vector spaces, distribution theory, weak topologies, Fourier transform, Hilbert transform, and Calderon-Zygmund singular integrals. An ideal ......
