Book Variational Analysis and Set Optimization

Download or read book Variational Analysis and Set Optimization written by Akhtar A. Khan and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-06-07 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains the latest advances in variational analysis and set / vector optimization, including uncertain optimization, optimal control and bilevel optimization. Recent developments concerning scalarization techniques, necessary and sufficient optimality conditions and duality statements are given. New numerical methods for efficiently solving set optimization problems are provided. Moreover, applications in economics, finance and risk theory are discussed. Summary The objective of this book is to present advances in different areas of variational analysis and set optimization, especially uncertain optimization, optimal control and bilevel optimization. Uncertain optimization problems will be approached from both a stochastic as well as a robust point of view. This leads to different interpretations of the solutions, which widens the choices for a decision-maker given his preferences. Recent developments regarding linear and nonlinear scalarization techniques with solid and nonsolid ordering cones for solving set optimization problems are discussed in this book. These results are useful for deriving optimality conditions for set and vector optimization problems. Consequently, necessary and sufficient optimality conditions are presented within this book, both in terms of scalarization as well as generalized derivatives. Moreover, an overview of existing duality statements and new duality assertions is given. The book also addresses the field of variable domination structures in vector and set optimization. Including variable ordering cones is especially important in applications such as medical image registration with uncertainties. This book covers a wide range of applications of set optimization. These range from finance, investment, insurance, control theory, economics to risk theory. As uncertain multi-objective optimization, especially robust approaches, lead to set optimization, one main focus of this book is uncertain optimization. Important recent developments concerning numerical methods for solving set optimization problems sufficiently fast are main features of this book. These are illustrated by various examples as well as easy-to-follow-steps in order to facilitate the decision process for users. Simple techniques aimed at practitioners working in the fields of mathematical programming, finance and portfolio selection are presented. These will help in the decision-making process, as well as give an overview of nondominated solutions to choose from.

Book Regularization Methods for Ill Posed Optimal Control Problems

Download or read book Regularization Methods for Ill Posed Optimal Control Problems written by Frank Pörner and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2018-10-04 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ill-posed optimization problems appear in a wide range of mathematical applications, and their numerical solution requires the use of appropriate regularization techniques. In order to understand these techniques, a thorough analysis is inevitable. The main subject of this book are quadratic optimal control problems subject to elliptic linear or semi-linear partial differential equations. Depending on the structure of the differential equation, different regularization techniques are employed, and their analysis leads to novel results such as rate of convergence estimates.

Book Trends in PDE Constrained Optimization

Download or read book Trends in PDE Constrained Optimization written by Günter Leugering and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-12-22 with total page 539 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Optimization problems subject to constraints governed by partial differential equations (PDEs) are among the most challenging problems in the context of industrial, economical and medical applications. Almost the entire range of problems in this field of research was studied and further explored as part of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) priority program 1253 on “Optimization with Partial Differential Equations” from 2006 to 2013. The investigations were motivated by the fascinating potential applications and challenging mathematical problems that arise in the field of PDE constrained optimization. New analytic and algorithmic paradigms have been developed, implemented and validated in the context of real-world applications. In this special volume, contributions from more than fifteen German universities combine the results of this interdisciplinary program with a focus on applied mathematics. The book is divided into five sections on “Constrained Optimization, Identification and Control”, “Shape and Topology Optimization”, “Adaptivity and Model Reduction”, “Discretization: Concepts and Analysis” and “Applications”. Peer-reviewed research articles present the most recent results in the field of PDE constrained optimization and control problems. Informative survey articles give an overview of topics that set sustainable trends for future research. This makes this special volume interesting not only for mathematicians, but also for engineers and for natural and medical scientists working on processes that can be modeled by PDEs.

Book An a Posteriori Error Analysis for Distributed Elliptic Optimal Control Problems with Pointwise State Constraints

Download or read book An a Posteriori Error Analysis for Distributed Elliptic Optimal Control Problems with Pointwise State Constraints written by and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis is concerned with the development, analysis, and implementation of an adaptive finite element method for distributed elliptic optimal control problems with pointwise unilateral constraints on the state. In particular, two residual-type a posteriori error estimators will be derived. The first one takes advantage of the modified adjoint state, which is defined as some kind of regularization of the adjoint state. Furthermore, this error estimator will, after minor modification, be transfered to the Lavrentiev regularization of the pure state constrained case. Up to a consistency error and data oscillation, reliability and efficiency results concerning the approximation of the state, the control, and the modified adjoint state can be provided for these error estimators. With two numerical examples, the performance of the adaptive algorithm will be investigated. A benefit compared to an uniform refinement strategy will be noticeable. The second developed a posteriori error estimator results from a measure extension of the discrete measure appearing in the right-hand side of the adjoint state equation to an element in the space of square integrable functions. This error estimator provides, again up to a consistency error and data oscillation, reliability and efficiency for the approximation error in the control, in the state, and in a semi-continuous auxiliary adjoint state. Another numerical example will show that this error estimator might be advantageous.

Book The Convergence of an Interior Point Method for an Elliptic Control Problem with Mixed Control state Constraints

Download or read book The Convergence of an Interior Point Method for an Elliptic Control Problem with Mixed Control state Constraints written by Uwe Prüfert and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: "The paper addresses primal interior point method for state constrained PDE optimal control problems. By a Lavrentiev regularization, the state constraint is transformed to a mixed control-state constraint with bounded Lagrange multiplier. Existence and convergence of the central path are established, and linear convergence of a short-step pathfollowing method is shown. The behaviour of the regularizations are demonstrated by numerical examples."
