Course objectives
The aim of the course is to provide the basic fact of the convex and its application to optimization problems in finitedimensonal spaces. A particular attention is devoted to the convex programming and to some numerical methods of optimization.
Syllabus
  • I. Convex analysis. Convex sets: basic concepts, convex hull, separation and supporting hyperplanes. Convex Functions: basic concepts, convexity criteria for differentiable functions, subgradient and subdifferential, Fenchel transformation, system of linear and convex inequalities. II. Duality, necessary and sufficient conditions for optimality. Lagrange principle, Kuhn-Tucker conditions, casic concepts of convex progamming. Duality in mathematical programming, dual problem, Kuhn-Tucker vrctor, saddle point. Duality in special optimization problems {linear and quadratic}. III. Numerical methods of minimization. Onedimensional minimization {Fibonaci and golden ratio methods} Unconstrained optimization (steepest slope method, method of conjugate gradients, Newton method}. Quadratic programming {Wolfe method and modofications, Thiel van de Panne method}.
