The lectures were in- tended to give an introduction to the foundations and an im- pression of the applications of optimization theory. Since in- finite dimensional problems were also to be treated and one could only assume a minimal knowledge of functional analysis, the necessary tools from functional analysis were almost com- pletely developed during the course of the semester. The most important aspects of the course are the duality theory for convex programming and necessary optimality conditions for nonlinear optimization problems; here we strive to make the geometric background particularly clear. For lack of time and space we were not able to go into several important problems in optimization - e. g. vector optimization, geometric program- ming and stability theory. I am very grateful to various people for their help in pro- ducing this text. R. Schaback encouraged me to publish my lec- tures and put me in touch with the Vieweg-Verlag. W. BrUbach and O. Herbst proofread the manuscript; the latter also pro- duced the drawings and assembled the index. I am indebted to W. LUck for valuable suggestions for improvement. I am also particularly grateful to R. Switzer, who translated the German text into English. Finally I wish to thank Frau P. Trapp for her Gare and patience in typing the final version.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vieweg+teubner Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47615327895703,"sku":"9783528085940","price":5441.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9783528085940.webp?v=1775099993","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/optimization-theory-and-applications-9783528085940","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
