Optimization Theory and Methods
Optimization Theory and Methods can be used as a textbook for an optimization course for graduates and senior undergraduates. It is the result of the author's teaching and research over the past decade. It describes optimization theory and several powerful methods. For most methods, the book discusses an idea’s motivation, studies the derivation, establishes the global and local convergence, describes algorithmic steps, and discusses the numerical performance.
Theory and Applications of Computational Chemistry
Computational chemistry is a means of applying theoretical ideas using computers and a set of techniques for investigating chemical problems within which common questions vary from molecular geometry to the physical properties of substances. Theory and Applications of Computational Chemistry: The First Forty Years is a collection of articles on the emergence of computational chemistry. It shows the enormous breadth of theoretical and computational chemistry today and establishes how theory and computation have become increasingly linked as methodologies and technologies have advanced. Written by the pioneers in the field, the book presents historical perspectives and insights into the subjec...
Approximation, Optimization and Mathematical Economics
The articles in this proceedings volume reflect the current trends in the theory of approximation, optimization and mathematical economics, and include numerous applications. The book will be of interest to researchers and graduate students involved in functional analysis, approximation theory, mathematical programming and optimization, game theory, mathematical finance and economics.
Advances in Optimization
This voluume contains actual contributions to the current research directions in Optimizatiton Theory as well as applications to economic problems and to problems in industrial engineering. Of particular interest are: convex- and Nonsmooth Analysis, Sensitivity Theory, Optimization techniques for nonsmooth and Variational problems, Control Theory and Vector optimization. The volume contains research andsurvey papers. The main benefit is given by a global suruvey of the state ofart of modern Optimization Theory and some typical applications.
Introduction to Numerical Analysis
On the occasion of this new edition, the text was enlarged by several new sections. Two sections on B-splines and their computation were added to the chapter on spline functions: Due to their special properties, their flexibility, and the availability of well-tested programs for their computation, B-splines play an important role in many applications. Also, the authors followed suggestions by many readers to supplement the chapter on elimination methods with a section dealing with the solution of large sparse systems of linear equations. Even though such systems are usually solved by iterative methods, the realm of elimination methods has been widely extended due to powerful techniques for h...
Extrapolation and Rational Approximation
This book paints a fresco of the field of extrapolation and rational approximation over the last several centuries to the present through the works of their primary contributors. It can serve as an introduction to the topics covered, including extrapolation methods, Padé approximation, orthogonal polynomials, continued fractions, Lanczos-type methods etc.; it also provides in depth discussion of the many links between these subjects. A highlight of this book is the presentation of the human side of the fields discussed via personal testimonies from contemporary researchers, their anecdotes, and their exclusive remembrances of some of the “actors.” This book shows how research in this do...
Nonlinear Equations and Optimisation
After a review of historical developments in convergence analysis for Newton's and Newton-like methods, 18 papers deal in depth with various classical, or neo-classical approaches, as well as newer ideas on optimization and solving linear equations. A sampling of topics: truncated Newton methods, sequential quadratic programming for large- scale nonlinear optimization, and automatic differentiation of algorithms. This monograph, one of seven volumes in the set, is also published as the Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics; v.124 (2000). Indexed only by author. c. Book News Inc.
Tools for Computational Finance
Tools for Computational Finance offers a clear explanation of computational issues arising in financial mathematics. The new third edition is thoroughly revised and significantly extended, including an extensive new section on analytic methods, focused mainly on interpolation approach and quadratic approximation. Other new material is devoted to risk-neutrality, early-exercise curves, multidimensional Black-Scholes models, the integral representation of options and the derivation of the Black-Scholes equation. New figures, more exercises, and expanded background material make this guide a real must-to-have for everyone working in the world of financial engineering.
Tools for Computational Finance
This edition contains more material. The largest addition is a new section on jump processes (Section 1.9). The derivation of a related partial integro differential equation is included in Appendix A3. More material is devoted to Monte Carlo simulation. An algorithm for the standard workhorse of in verting the normal distribution is added to Appendix A7. New figures and more exercises are intended to improve the clarity at some places. Several further references give hints on more advanced material and on important developments. Many small changes are hoped to improve the readability of this book. Further I have made an effort to correct misprints and errors that I knew about. A new domain is being prepared to serve the needs of the computational finance community, and to provide complementary material to this book. The address of the domain is www.compfin.de The domain is under construction; it replaces the website address www . mi. uni koeln.de/numerik/compfin/. Suggestions and remarks both on this book and on the domain are most welcome.
