Title: Convexity and optimization in R [superscript n]
Description: "This book presents the mathematics of finite dimensional constrained optimization problems. It provides a basis for the further mathematical study of convexity, of more generalized optimization problems, and of numerical algorithms for the solution of finite dimensional optimization problems. For readers who do not have the requisite background in real analysis, the author provides a chapter covering this material.

The text features abundant exercises and problems designed to lead the reader to a fundamental understanding of the material." "A detailed bibliography is included for further study and an index offers quick reference. Suitable as a text for both graduate and undergraduate students in mathematics and engineering, this accessible text is written from extensively class-tested notes."--BOOK JACKET.
