Asymptotic Cones and Functions in Optimization and Variational Inequalities
ISBN: 9781441930361 / Angielski / Miękka / 249 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: 22 dni roboczych Nonlinear applied analysis and in particular the related ?elds of continuous optimization and variational inequality problems have gone through major developments over the last three decades and have reached maturity. A pivotal role in these developments has been played by convex analysis, a rich area covering a broad range of problems in mathematical sciences and its applications. Separation of convex sets and the Legendre-Fenchel conjugate transforms are fundamental notions that have laid the ground for these fruitful developments. Two other fundamental notions that have contributed to...

Hybrid Simulation Models of Production Networks
ISBN: 9781441933638 / Angielski / Miękka / 196 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: 22 dni roboczych This book is concerned with a most important area of industrial production, that of analysis and optimization of production lines and networks using discrete-event models and simulation. The book introduces a novel approach that combines analytic models and discrete-event simulation. Unlike conventional piece-by-piece simulation, this method observes a reduced number of events between which the evolution of the system is tracked analytically. Using this hybrid approach, several models are developed for the analysis of production lines and networks. The hybrid approach combines speed and...

Scalar and Asymptotic Scalar Derivatives: Theory and Applications
ISBN: 9781441944849 / Angielski / Miękka / 245 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: 22 dni roboczych This book is devoted to the study of scalar and asymptotic scalar derivatives and their applications to the study of some problems considered in nonlinear analysis, in geometry, and in applied mathematics. The notion of a scalar derivative is due to S. Z. Nemeth, and the notion of an asymptotic scalar derivative is due to G. Isac. Both notions are recent, never considered in a book, and have interesting applications. About applications, we cite applications to the study of complementarity problems, to the study of xed points of nonlinear mappings, to spectral nonlinear analysis, and to the...

Discrete Hamiltonian Systems: Difference Equations, Continued Fractions, and Riccati Equations
ISBN: 9781441947635 / Angielski / Miękka / 376 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: 22 dni roboczych This book should be accessible to students who have had a first course in matrix theory. The existence and uniqueness theorem of Chapter 4 requires the implicit function theorem, but we give a self-contained constructive proof ofthat theorem. The reader willing to accept the implicit function theorem can read the book without an advanced calculus background. Chapter 8 uses the Moore-Penrose pseudo-inverse, but is accessible to students who have facility with matrices. Exercises are placed at those points in the text where they are relevant. For U. S. universities, we intend for the book to be...

Robust Discrete Optimization and Its Applications
ISBN: 9781441947642 / Angielski / Miękka / 358 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: 22 dni roboczych This book deals with decision making in environments of significant data un- certainty, with particular emphasis on operations and production management applications. For such environments, we suggest the use of the robustness ap- proach to decision making, which assumes inadequate knowledge of the decision maker about the random state of nature and develops a decision that hedges against the worst contingency that may arise. The main motivating factors for a decision maker to use the robustness approach are: - It does not ignore uncertainty and takes a proactive step in response to the fact...

Abstract Convexity and Global Optimization
ISBN: 9781441948311 / Angielski / Miękka / 493 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: 22 dni roboczych Special tools are required for examining and solving optimization problems. The main tools in the study of local optimization are classical calculus and its modern generalizions which form nonsmooth analysis. The gradient and various kinds of generalized derivatives allow us to ac- complish a local approximation of a given function in a neighbourhood of a given point. This kind of approximation is very useful in the study of local extrema. However, local approximation alone cannot help to solve many problems of global optimization, so there is a clear need to develop special global tools for...

Neural Networks in Optimization
ISBN: 9781441948366 / Angielski / Miękka / 371 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: 22 dni roboczych People are facing more and more NP-complete or NP-hard problems of a combinatorial nature and of a continuous nature in economic, military and management practice. There are two ways in which one can enhance the efficiency of searching for the solutions of these problems. The first is to improve the speed and memory capacity of hardware. We all have witnessed the computer industry's amazing achievements with hardware and software developments over the last twenty years. On one hand many computers, bought only a few years ago, are being sent to elementary schools for children to learn the...

Nonsmooth Equations in Optimization: Regularity, Calculus, Methods and Applications
ISBN: 9781441952189 / Angielski / Miękka / 333 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: 22 dni roboczych Many questions dealing with solvability, stability and solution methods for va- ational inequalities or equilibrium, optimization and complementarity problems lead to the analysis of certain (perturbed) equations. This often requires a - formulation of the initial model being under consideration. Due to the specific of the original problem, the resulting equation is usually either not differ- tiable (even if the data of the original model are smooth), or it does not satisfy the assumptions of the classical implicit function theorem. This phenomenon is the main reason why a considerable...
