Basic Concepts of Global Optimization
This textbook is an introduction to global optimization, which treats mathematical facts stringently on the one hand, but also motivates them in great detail and illustrates them with 80 figures. The book is therefore not only aimed at mathematicians, but also at natural scientists, engineers and economists who want to understand and apply mathematically sound methods in their field. With almost two hundred pages, the book provides enough choices to use it as a basis for differently designed lectures on global optimization. The detailed treatment of the global solvability of optimization problems under application-relevant conditions sets a new accent that enriches the stock of previous textbooks on optimization. Using the theory and algorithms of smooth convex optimization, the book illustrates that the global solution of a class of optimization problems frequently encountered in practice is efficiently possible, while for the more difficult-to-handle non-convex problems it develops in detail the ideas of branch-and-bound methods.
Operations Research
DDas vorliegende Lehrbuch ist eine Einführung in das Operations Research, die mathematisch stringent vorgeht, ohne jedoch den Leser mit Beweisen zu überfrachten. Stattdessen werden die mathematischen Sachverhalte ausführlich begründet und durch weit mehr als hundert Abbildungen illustriert. Das Buch ist gleichermaßen für Ingenieure, Mathematiker und Wirtschaftswissenschaftler geeignet. Mit nahezu vierhundert Seiten stellen die Autoren genügend Auswahlmöglichkeiten zur Verfügung, um es als Grundlage für unterschiedlich angelegte Operations Research-Vorlesungen zu verwenden. Darüber hinaus setzt dieses Buch an den richtigen Stellen neue Akzente und bereichert den Bestand der bisherigen Lehrbücher zu diesem Fachgebiet. Ein ausführlicher Anhang verdeutlicht die für das Verständnis des Buches notwendigen mathematischen Grundkonzepte, um den unterschiedlichen Voraussetzungen in der Vielfalt der Bachelor- und Masterprogramme Rechnung zu tragen.
Operations Research Proceedings 2022
This book gathers a selection of peer-reviewed papers presented at the International Conference on Operations Research (OR 2022), which was held at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Germany, on September 6-9, 2022. KIT’s Institute for Operations Research (IOR) hosted the conference together with the Institute for Industrial Production (IIP), the Institute for Automation and Applied Informatics (IAI), and the Institute for Material Handling and Logistics (IFL). The respective papers discuss classical mathematical optimization, statistics and simulation techniques. These are complemented by computer science methods, and by tools for processing data, designing and implementing information systems. The book also examines recent advances in information technology, which allow big data volumes to be processed and enable real-time predictive and prescriptive business analytics to drive decisions and actions. Lastly, it includes problems modeled and treated while taking into account uncertainty, risk management, behavioral issues, etc.
Bi-Level Strategies in Semi-Infinite Programming
Semi-infinite optimization is a vivid field of active research. Recently semi infinite optimization in a general form has attracted a lot of attention, not only because of its surprising structural aspects, but also due to the large number of applications which can be formulated as general semi-infinite programs. The aim of this book is to highlight structural aspects of general semi-infinite programming, to formulate optimality conditions which take this structure into account, and to give a conceptually new solution method. In fact, under certain assumptions general semi-infinite programs can be solved efficiently when their bi-Ievel structure is exploited appropriately. After a brief introduction with some historical background in Chapter 1 we be gin our presentation by a motivation for the appearance of standard and general semi-infinite optimization problems in applications. Chapter 2 lists a number of problems from engineering and economics which give rise to semi-infinite models, including (reverse) Chebyshev approximation, minimax problems, ro bust optimization, design centering, defect minimization problems for operator equations, and disjunctive programming.

Case Computer Michael Jackson
Case Computer Michael Jackson is the story of a specially designed computer that was wrongly sold to a member of the general public by an electronics shop that was only meant to build the computer not sell it. The four people viewing a Michael Jackson picture on their new computer get a bit more than they bargain for when the computer suddenly reacts to the picture they are viewing and throws them back in time to June 2009 and to forty hours before Michael Jackson died. Will Melinda, John, Daisy and Martin do anything or just watch the days pass by...find out in the latest installment of the Case Computer series.
The Classical Groups and K-Theory
It is a great satisfaction for a mathematician to witness the growth and expansion of a theory in which he has taken some part during its early years. When H. Weyl coined the words "classical groups", foremost in his mind were their connections with invariant theory, which his famous book helped to revive. Although his approach in that book was deliberately algebraic, his interest in these groups directly derived from his pioneering study of the special case in which the scalars are real or complex numbers, where for the first time he injected Topology into Lie theory. But ever since the definition of Lie groups, the analogy between simple classical groups over finite fields and simple class...
The Development of Abstractionism in the Writings of Gertrude Stein
This book is a volume in the Penn Press Anniversary Collection. To mark its 125th anniversary in 2015, the University of Pennsylvania Press rereleased more than 1,100 titles from Penn Press's distinguished backlist from 1899-1999 that had fallen out of print. Spanning an entire century, the Anniversary Collection offers peer-reviewed scholarship in a wide range of subject areas.
