Introduction to Nonlinear Optimization : Theory, Algorithms and Applications With Matlab, Paperback by Beck, Amir, ISBN 1611973643, ISBN-13 9781611973648, Used Good Condition, Free shipping in the USBeck presents a textbook on optimization that combines a strong theoretical and algorithmic foundation, various applications, and ways to apply the theory and algorithms in actual real-world problems. He assumes student to have a basic background in advanced calculus and linear algebra, but no prior knowledge of optimization theory. The topics include optimality conditions for unconstrained optimization, the gradient method, Newton\'s method, convex functions, optimality conditions for linearly constrained problems, and duality.
