Optimization: Algorithms and Consistent Approximations
ISBN: 9780387949710 / Angielski / Twarda / 782 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book deals with optimality conditions, algorithms, and discretization tech- niques for nonlinear programming, semi-infinite optimization, and optimal con- trol problems. The unifying thread in the presentation consists of an abstract theory, within which optimality conditions are expressed in the form of zeros of optimality junctions, algorithms are characterized by point-to-set iteration maps, and all the numerical approximations required in the solution of semi-infinite optimization and optimal control problems are treated within the context of con- sistent approximations and algorithm...

Optimization Methods for Logical Inference
ISBN: 9780471570356 / Angielski / Twarda / 366 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Logic has recently become a basic modelling tool alongside mathematics, and the two styles of modelling are beginning to combine. Thus the need for logical inference models, particularly those that involve quantitative methods, is growing. As generated in operations research and computer science, the methods of combinatorial optimization can be powerful tools for understanding and solving logical inference problems which arise in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and other fields.

Game Theory and Politics
ISBN: 9780486434971 / Angielski / Miękka / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In this illuminating and instructive survey, author Steven J. Brams demonstrates both the insights and the pitfalls that can result from applying game theoretic models to the analysis of problems in political science. Using plenty of real-life examples, Brams shows how game theory can explain and elucidate complex political situations, from warfare to presidential vetoes. In these cases and others, game theory's mathematical structure provides a rigorous, consistent method for formulating, analyzing, and solving strategic problems. Minimal mathematical background is necessary, making the... In this illuminating and instructive survey, author Steven J.

Fixed Point Theorems with Applications to Economics and Game Theory
ISBN: 9780521388085 / Angielski / Miękka / 140 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. One of the problems in economics that economists have devoted a considerable amount of attention in prevalent years has been to ensure consistency in the models they employ. Assuming markets to be generally in some state of equilibrium, it is asked under what circumstances such equilibrium is possible. The fundamental mathematical tools used to address this concern are fixed point theorems: the conditions under which sets of assumptions have a solution. This book gives the reader access to the mathematical techniques involved and goes on to apply fixed point theorems to proving the existence...

Is Nine-Men's Morris, in the hands of perfect players, a win for white or for black--or a draw? Can king, rook, and knight always defeat king and two knights in chess? What can Go players learn from economists? What are nimbers, tinies, switches, minies? This book deals with combinatorial games, that is, games not involving chance or hidden information. Their study is at once old and young: though some games, such as chess, have been analyzed for centuries, the first full analysis of a nontrivial combinatorial game (Nim) only appeared in 1902. This book deals with combinatorial games, that...

The evolutionary game theory developed in this 2005 book provides the tools necessary for understanding many of nature's mysteries, including co-evolution, speciation, extinction and the major biological questions regarding fit of form and function, diversity, procession, and the distribution and abundance of life. Mathematics for the evolutionary game are developed based on Darwin's postulates leading to the concept of a fitness generating function (G-function). G-function is a tool that simplifies notation and plays...

Theory of Games and Economic Behavior: 60th Anniversary Commemorative Edition
ISBN: 9780691130613 / Angielski / Miękka / 776 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This is the classic work upon which modern-day game theory is based. What began more than sixty years ago as a modest proposal that a mathematician and an economist write a short paper together blossomed, in 1944, when Princeton University Press published Theory of Games and Economic Behavior. In it, John von Neumann and Oskar Morgenstern conceived a groundbreaking mathematical theory of economic and social organization, based on a theory of games of strategy. Not only would this revolutionize economics, but the entirely new field of scientific inquiry it yielded--game theory--has... This is the classic work upon which modern-day game theory is based.
