Description
Optimization and Nonsmooth Analysis by Frank H. Clarke is a foundational text that has had a profound impact on several branches of analysis and optimization. The book presents a general theory of nonsmooth analysis and geometry, which, together with associated techniques, has led to significant advances in fields such as optimal control and mathematical programming. Clarke's approach provides a unified framework for analyzing problems in these areas, drawing on examples from economics, engineering, mathematical physics, and analysis. This reprint volume features a lively exposition and fundamental contributions that have been widely praised. With its powerful and unified approach, Optimization and Nonsmooth Analysis is a valuable resource for researchers and professionals working in optimization and related fields.
