Description for Introduction to Global Optimization
Paperback. Covers the fundamentals in global optimization. This edition includes algorithms, applications, and complexity results for quadratic programming, concave minimization, DC and Lipshitz problems, decomposition algorithms for nonconvex optimization, and nonlinear network flow problems. Each chapter contains illustrative examples. Series: Nonconvex Optimization and Its Applications. Num Pages: 368 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PBU; PBW; UM. Category: (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 19. Weight in Grams: 1150.
In this edition, the scope and character of the monograph did not change with respect to the first edition. Taking into account the rapid development of the field, we have, however, considerably enlarged its contents. Chapter 4 includes two additional sections 4.4 and 4.6 on theory and algorithms of D.C. Programming. Chapter 7, on Decomposition Algorithms in Nonconvex Optimization, is completely new. Besides this, we added several exercises and corrected errors and misprints in the first edition. We are grateful for valuable suggestions and comments that we received from several colleagues. R. Horst, P.M. Pardalos and N.V. Thoai March 2000 ... Read more

Reviews for Introduction to Global Optimization
Comments on the first edition: `Each chapter contains illlustrative examples and exercises. This excellent book is the first textbook on deterministic global optimization.' Mathematical Reviews (96g:90001) `The authors provide a nice selection of homework exercises (with solutions) at an appropriate level and a good mixture of theory, ... Read more
