商品描述

This book aims at an innovative approach within the framework of convex analysis and optimization, based on an in-depth study of the behavior and properties of the supremum of families of convex functions. It presents an original and systematic treatment of convex analysis, covering standard results and improved calculus rules in subdifferential analysis. The tools supplied in the text allow a direct approach to the mathematical foundations of convex optimization, in particular to optimality and duality theory. Other applications in the book concern convexification processes in optimization, non-convex integration of the Fenchel subdifferential, variational characterizations of convexity, and the study of Chebychev sets. At the same time, the underlying geometrical meaning of all the involved concepts and operations is highlighted and duly emphasized. A notable feature of the book is its unifying methodology, as well as the novelty of providing an alternative or complementary viewto the traditional one in which the discipline is presented to students and researchers.

This textbook can be used for courses on optimization, convex and variational analysis, addressed to graduate and post-graduate students of mathematics, and also students of economics and engineering. It is also oriented to provide specific background for courses on optimal control, data science, operations research, economics (game theory), etc. The book represents a challenging and motivating development for those experts in functional analysis, convex geometry, and any kind of researchers who may be interested in applications of their work.


商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書旨在於凸分析與優化的框架內採取創新的方法，基於對凸函數族的上確界行為和性質的深入研究。它提供了對凸分析的原創且系統性的處理，涵蓋了標準結果和改進的次微分分析計算規則。書中提供的工具使得對凸優化的數學基礎，特別是最優性和對偶理論，能夠進行直接的探討。書中的其他應用涉及優化中的凸化過程、Fenchel 次微分的非凸積分、凸性的變分特徵以及Chebychev集合的研究。同時，所有相關概念和操作的基本幾何意義也得到了突顯和強調。本書的一個顯著特點是其統一的方法論，以及提供一種替代或補充傳統觀點的新穎性，這種觀點通常是向學生和研究人員介紹該學科的方式。

本教科書可用於優化、凸分析和變分分析的課程，適合數學的研究生和碩士生，以及經濟學和工程學的學生。它也旨在為最優控制、數據科學、運籌學、經濟學（博弈論）等課程提供特定的背景。本書對於功能分析、凸幾何的專家以及任何對其工作應用感興趣的研究人員來說，都是一個具有挑戰性和激勵性的發展。
