[Opt-Net] New book, Introduction to Nonlinear Optimization

[Bruce Bailey]

Announcing the October 27, 2014, publication by SIAM of:

Introduction to Nonlinear Optimization: Theory, Algorithms, and Applications with MATLAB, by Amir Beck

2014 / xii + 282 pages / Softcover / 978-1-611973-64-8 / List Price $89.00 / SIAM/MOS Member Price $62.30 / Order Code MO19

This book provides the foundations of the theory of nonlinear optimization as well as some related algorithms and presents a variety of applications from diverse areas of applied sciences.
The author combines three pillars of optimization — theoretical and algorithmic foundation, familiarity with various applications, and the ability to apply the theory and algorithms on actual problems — and rigorously and gradually
builds the connection between theory, algorithms, applications, and implementation.

Readers will find more than 170 theoretical, algorithmic, and numerical exercises that deepen and enhance the reader's understanding of the topics. The author includes several subjects not typically found in optimization books—for example,
optimality conditions in sparsity-constrained optimization, hidden convexity, and total least squares.
