The convexity theory is developed first in a simple accessible manner using easily visualized proofs. The focus then shifts to a transparent geometrical line of analysis to develop the fundamental duality between descriptions of convex sets and functions in terms of points and in terms of hyperplanes. Finally, convexity theory and abstract duality are applied to problems of constrained optimization, Fenchel and conic duality and game theory to develop the sharpest possible duality results within a highly visual geometric framework. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp style=\"text-align: justify\"\u003eThe Indian edition of the book alone carries a supplementary chapter containing the most popular convex optimization algorithms and some of the new optimization algorithms otherwise available at \u003ca href=\"\"\u003ehttp:\/\/www.athenasc.com\/convexduality.html \u003c\/a\u003e. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp style=\"text-align: justify\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey features: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"text-align: justify\"\u003eRigorous and comprehensive development of the theory of convex sets and functions in the classical tradition of Fenchel and Rockafellar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"text-align: justify\"\u003eA geometric and highly visual treatment of convex optimization problems including duality, existence of solutions, and optimality conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"text-align: justify\"\u003eAn insightful and comprehensive presentation of minimax theory and zero sum games and its connection with duality\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"text-align: justify\"\u003eContains many examples and illustrations in the text\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"text-align: justify\"\u003eInclusion of many examples, illustrations, exercises with complete solutions and a supplementary chapter on the most popular convex optimization algorithms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"text-align: justify\"\u003eUseable as a standalone text for a theoretically-oriented class on convex analysis and optimization, or as a theoretical supplement to either an applications\/convex optimization models class or a nonlinear programming class\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Orient Blackswan Pvt Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45616468295831,"sku":"9788173717147","price":943.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9788173717147.webp?v=1769294869","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/convex-optimization-theory-9788173717147","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
