This book was released on 2013-12-01 with total page 469 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A function is convex if its epigraph is convex. This geometrical structure has very strong implications in terms of continuity and differentiability. Separation theorems lead to optimality conditions and duality for convex problems. A function is quasiconvex if its lower level sets are convex. Here again, the geo metrical structure of the level sets implies some continuity and differentiability properties for quasiconvex functions. Optimality conditions and duality can be derived for optimization problems involving such functions as well. Over a period of about fifty years, quasiconvex and other generalized convex functions have been considered in a variety of fields including economies, man agement science, engineering, probability and applied sciences in accordance with the need of particular applications. During the last twenty-five years, an increase of research activities in this field has been witnessed. More recently generalized monotonicity of maps has been studied. It relates to generalized convexity off unctions as monotonicity relates to convexity. Generalized monotonicity plays a role in variational inequality problems, complementarity problems and more generally, in equilibrium prob lems.

This book was released on 2007-03-12 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The theory of convex optimization has been constantly developing over the past 30 years. Most recently, many researchers have been studying more complicated classes of problems that still can be studied by means of convex analysis, so-called "anticonvex" and "convex-anticonvex" optimizaton problems. This manuscript contains an exhaustive presentation of the duality for these classes of problems and some of its generalization in the framework of abstract convexity. This manuscript will be of great interest for experts in this and related fields.

This book was released on 2019-03-25 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2015 in the subject Mathematics - Applied Mathematics, , language: English, abstract: This book comprises various optimality criteria, duality and mixed duality in a variety of mathematical programming, that includes nondifferentiable nonlinear programming problems, nondifferentiable nonlinear fractional programming problems, nondifferentiable minimax fractional programming problems etc. Mathematical Programming is concerned with the determination of a minimum or maximum of a function of several variables, which are required to satisfy a number of constraints. Such solutions are sought are sought in diverse fields, including Engineering, Operations Research, Management Science and Economics. Often these situations are mathematical representations of certain real world problems, and hence are turned as mathematical programming problems. Optimality criteria and duality have played an important role in the development of mathematical programming. Optimality conditions were first investigated by Fritz John and later on, independently by Karush and Kuhn – Tucker. The inception of duality theory in linear programming may be traced to the classical minmax theorem of Von Neumann, which was subsequently formulated in a precise form by Gale, Kuhn and Tucker. Since then optimality criteria and duality have remained as one of the most widely investigated area in mathematical programming. Karush-Kuhn-Tucker conditions not only laid down the foundations for many computational techniques in mathematical programming, but also are a great deal responsible for the development of the duality theory. An extensive use of duality in mathematical programming has been made for many theoretical and computational developments in mathematical programming itself, economics, control theory, business problems and many other diverse fields. It is well known that duality principle connects two programs, one of which, called the Primal problem, is a constrained maximization (or minimization) problem, and the other one called the Dual, is a constrained minimization (or maximization) problem, in such a way that the existence of an optimal solution to one of them guarantees an optimal solution to the other and optimal values of the two problems are equal. A pair of dual problems is called symmetric if the dual of the dual is the primal itself.

Download or read book Linear Programming Duality written by Achim Bachem and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents an elementary introduction to the theory of oriented matroids. The way oriented matroids are intro- duced emphasizes that they are the most general - and hence simplest - structures for which linear Programming Duality results can be stated and proved. The main theme of the book is duality. Using Farkas' Lemma as the basis the authors start withre- sults on polyhedra in Rn and show how to restate the essence of the proofs in terms of sign patterns of oriented ma- troids. Most of the standard material in Linear Programming is presented in the setting of real space as well as in the more abstract theory of oriented matroids. This approach clarifies the theory behind Linear Programming and proofs become simpler. The last part of the book deals with the facial structure of polytopes respectively their oriented matroid counterparts. It is an introduction to more advanced topics in oriented matroid theory. Each chapter contains suggestions for furt- herreading and the references provide an overview of the research in this field.

Download or read book A Posteriori Error Analysis Via Duality Theory written by Weimin Han and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-07-30 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work provides a posteriori error analysis for mathematical idealizations in modeling boundary value problems, especially those arising in mechanical applications, and for numerical approximations of numerous nonlinear var- tional problems. An error estimate is called a posteriori if the computed solution is used in assessing its accuracy. A posteriori error estimation is central to m- suring, controlling and minimizing errors in modeling and numerical appr- imations. In this book, the main mathematical tool for the developments of a posteriori error estimates is the duality theory of convex analysis, documented in the well-known book by Ekeland and Temam ([49]). The duality theory has been found useful in mathematical programming, mechanics, numerical analysis, etc. The book is divided into six chapters. The first chapter reviews some basic notions and results from functional analysis, boundary value problems, elliptic variational inequalities, and finite element approximations. The most relevant part of the duality theory and convex analysis is briefly reviewed in Chapter 2.

Download or read book Conjugate Duality in Convex Optimization written by Radu Ioan-Bot and published by Springer. This book was released on 2011-03-03 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The results presented in this book originate from the last decade research work of the author in the ?eld of duality theory in convex optimization. The reputation of duality in the optimization theory comes mainly from the major role that it plays in formulating necessary and suf?cient optimality conditions and, consequently, in generatingdifferent algorithmic approachesfor solving mathematical programming problems. The investigations made in this work prove the importance of the duality theory beyond these aspects and emphasize its strong connections with different topics in convex analysis, nonlinear analysis, functional analysis and in the theory of monotone operators. The ?rst part of the book brings to the attention of the reader the perturbation approach as a fundamental tool for developing the so-called conjugate duality t- ory. The classical Lagrange and Fenchel duality approaches are particular instances of this general concept. More than that, the generalized interior point regularity conditions stated in the past for the two mentioned situations turn out to be p- ticularizations of the ones given in this general setting. In our investigations, the perturbationapproachrepresentsthestartingpointforderivingnewdualityconcepts for several classes of convex optimization problems. Moreover, via this approach, generalized Moreau–Rockafellar formulae are provided and, in connection with them, a new class of regularity conditions, called closedness-type conditions, for both stable strong duality and strong duality is introduced. By stable strong duality we understand the situation in which strong duality still holds whenever perturbing the objective function of the primal problem with a linear continuous functional.
