This book discusses basic tools of partially ordered spaces and applies them to variational methods in Nonlinear Analysis and for optimizing problems. This book is aimed at graduate students and research mathematicians.
Set-valued optimization is a vibrant and expanding branch of mathematics that deals with optimization problems where the objective map and/or the constraints maps are set-valued maps acting between certain spaces. Since set-valued maps subsumes single valued maps, set-valued optimization provides an important extension and unification of the scalar as well as the vector optimization problems. Therefore this relatively new discipline has justifiably attracted a great deal of attention in recent years. This book presents, in a unified framework, basic properties on ordering relations, solution concepts for set-valued optimization problems, a detailed description of convex set-valued maps, most recent developments in separation theorems, scalarization techniques, variational principles, tangent cones of first and higher order, sub-differential of set-valued maps, generalized derivatives of set-valued maps, sensitivity analysis, optimality conditions, duality and applications in economics among other things.
MATRIX is Australia’s international, residential mathematical research institute. It facilitates new collaborations and mathematical advances through intensive residential research programs, each lasting 1-4 weeks. This book is a scientific record of the five programs held at MATRIX in its first year, 2016: - Higher Structures in Geometry and Physics - Winter of Disconnectedness - Approximation and Optimisation - Refining C*-Algebraic Invariants for Dynamics using KK-theory - Interactions between Topological Recursion, Modularity, Quantum Invariants and Low- dimensional Topology The MATRIX Scientific Committee selected these programs based on their scientific excellence and the participati...
This volume contains the proceedings of the workshop on Optimization Theory and Related Topics, held in memory of Dan Butnariu, from January 11-14, 2010, in Haifa, Israel. An active researcher in various fields of applied mathematics, Butnariu published over 80 papers. His extensive bibliography is included in this volume. The articles in this volume cover many different areas of Optimization Theory and its applications: maximal monotone operators, sensitivity estimates via Lyapunov functions, inverse Newton transforms, infinite-horizon Pontryagin principles, singular optimal control problems with state delays, descent methods for mixed variational inequalities, games on MV-algebras, ergodic convergence in subgradient optimization, applications to economics and technology planning, the exact penalty property in constrained optimization, nonsmooth inverse problems, Bregman distances, retraction methods in Banach spaces, and iterative methods for solving equilibrium problems. This volume will be of interest to both graduate students and research mathematicians.

The volume comprises a collection of 172 extented abstracts of talks presented at the 16th Symposium on Operations Rese- arch held at the University of Trier in September 1991. It is designated to serve as a quickly published documentation of the scientific activities of the conference. Subjects and areas touched upon include theory, modelling and computational methods in optimization, combinatorial op- timization and discrete mathematics, combinatorial problems in VLSI, scientific computing, stochastic and dynamic opti- mization, queuing, scheduling, stochastics and econometrics, mathematical economics and game theory, utility, risk, insu- rance, financial engineering, computer science in business and economics, knowledge engineering and production and ma- nufacturing.
Focussing on the theory (both classical and recent) of monotone multifunctions on a (possibly nonreflexive) Banach space, this book looks at the big convexification of a multifunction; convex functions associated with a multifunction; minimax theorems as a tool in functional analysis and convex analysis. It includes new results on the existence of continuous linear functionals; the conjugates, biconjugates and subdifferentials of convex lower semicontinuous functions, Fenchel duality; (possibly unbounded) positive linear operators from a Banach space into its dual; the sum of maximal monotone operators, and a list of open problems. The reader is expected to know basic functional analysis and calculus of variations, including the Bahn-Banach theorem, Banach-Alaoglu theorem, Ekeland's variational principle.
This volume contains the papers on optimization presented to the 11th conference on «Methods and Techniques of Mathematical Physics», held on December 1-7, 1985 at the Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach.
