Book Description
The primary aim of this book is to present the conjugate and sub/differential calculus using the method of perturbation functions in order to obtain the most general results in this field. The secondary aim is to provide important applications of this calculus and of the properties of convex functions. Such applications are: the study of well-conditioned convex functions, uniformly convex and uniformly smooth convex functions, best approximation problems, characterizations of convexity, the study of the sets of weak sharp minima, well-behaved functions and the existence of global error bounds for convex inequalities, as well as the study of monotone multifunctions by using convex functions.

Convex Analysis
Author: Ralph Tyrell Rockafellar
Publisher: Princeton University Press
ISBN: 1400873177
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 470
Book Description
Available for the first time in paperback, R. Tyrrell Rockafellar's classic study presents readers with a coherent branch of nonlinear mathematical analysis that is especially suited to the study of optimization problems. Rockafellar's theory differs from classical analysis in that differentiability assumptions are replaced by convexity assumptions. The topics treated in this volume include: systems of inequalities, the minimum or maximum of a convex function over a convex set, Lagrange multipliers, minimax theorems and duality, as well as basic results about the structure of convex sets and the continuity and differentiability of convex functions and saddle- functions. This book has firmly established a new and vital area not only for pure mathematics but also for applications to economics and engineering. A sound knowledge of linear algebra and introductory real analysis should provide readers with sufficient background for this book. There is also a guide for the reader who may be using the book as an introduction, indicating which parts are essential and which may be skipped on a first reading.

Locally Convex Spaces
Author: M. Scott Osborne
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3319020455
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 217
Book Description
For most practicing analysts who use functional analysis, the restriction to Banach spaces seen in most real analysis graduate texts is not enough for their research. This graduate text, while focusing on locally convex topological vector spaces, is intended to cover most of the general theory needed for application to other areas of analysis. Normed vector spaces, Banach spaces, and Hilbert spaces are all examples of classes of locally convex spaces, which is why this is an important topic in functional analysis. While this graduate text focuses on what is needed for applications, it also shows the beauty of the subject and motivates the reader with exercises of varying difficulty. Key topics covered include point set topology, topological vector spaces, the Hahn–Banach theorem, seminorms and Fréchet spaces, uniform boundedness, and dual spaces. The prerequisite for this text is the Banach space theory typically taught in a beginning graduate real analysis course.

Locally Convex Spaces and Harmonic Analysis: An Introduction
Author: Philippe G. Ciarlet
Publisher: SIAM
ISBN: 1611976650
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 203
Book Description
This self-contained textbook covers the fundamentals of two basic topics of linear functional analysis: locally convex spaces and harmonic analysis. Readers will find detailed introductions to topological vector spaces, distribution theory, weak topologies, the Fourier transform, the Hilbert transform, and Calderón–Zygmund singular integrals. An ideal introduction to more advanced texts, the book complements Ciarlet’s Linear and Nonlinear Functional Analysis with Applications (SIAM), in which these two topics were not treated. Pedagogical features such as detailed proofs and 93 problems make the book ideal for a one-semester first-year graduate course or for self-study. The book is intended for advanced undergraduates and first-year graduate students and researchers. It is appropriate for courses on functional analysis, distribution theory, Fourier transform, and harmonic analysis.

Topological Vector Spaces, Distributions and Kernels
Author: François Treves
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 1483223620
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 582
Book Description
Topological Vector Spaces, Distributions and Kernels discusses partial differential equations involving spaces of functions and space distributions. The book reviews the definitions of a vector space, of a topological space, and of the completion of a topological vector space. The text gives examples of Frechet spaces, Normable spaces, Banach spaces, or Hilbert spaces. The theory of Hilbert space is similar to finite dimensional Euclidean spaces in which they are complete and carry an inner product that can determine their properties. The text also explains the Hahn-Banach theorem, as well as the applications of the Banach-Steinhaus theorem and the Hilbert spaces. The book discusses topologies compatible with a duality, the theorem of Mackey, and reflexivity. The text describes nuclear spaces, the Kernels theorem and the nuclear operators in Hilbert spaces. Kernels and topological tensor products theory can be applied to linear partial differential equations where kernels, in this connection, as inverses (or as approximations of inverses), of differential operators. The book is suitable for vector mathematicians, for students in advanced mathematics and physics.

Convex Analysis and Variational Problems
Author: Ivar Ekeland
Publisher: SIAM
ISBN: 9781611971088
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 414
Book Description
This book contains different developments of infinite dimensional convex programming in the context of convex analysis, including duality, minmax and Lagrangians, and convexification of nonconvex optimization problems in the calculus of variations (infinite dimension). It also includes the theory of convex duality applied to partial differential equations; no other reference presents this in a systematic way. The minmax theorems contained in this book have many useful applications, in particular the robust control of partial differential equations in finite time horizon. First published in English in 1976, this SIAM Classics in Applied Mathematics edition contains the original text along with a new preface and some additional references.

Locally Convex Spaces

Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3322905594
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 549
Book Description
The present book grew out of several courses which I have taught at the University of Zürich and at the University of Maryland during the past seven years. It is primarily intended to be a systematic text on locally convex spaces at the level of a student who has some familiarity with general topology and basic measure theory. However, since much of the material is of fairly recent origin and partly appears here for the first time in a book, and also since some well-known material has been given a not so well-known treatment, I hope that this book might prove useful even to more advanced readers. And in addition I hope that the selection ofmaterial marks a sufficient set-offfrom the treatments in e.g. N. Bourbaki [4], [5], R.E. Edwards [1], K. Floret-J. Wloka [1], H.G. Garnir-M. De Wilde-J. Schmets [1], AGrothendieck [13], H. Heuser [1], J. Horvath [1], J.L. Kelley-I. Namioka et al. [1], G. Köthe [7], [10], A P. Robertson W. Robertson [1], W. Rudin [2], H.H. Schaefer [1], F. Treves [l], A Wilansky [1]. A few sentences should be said about the organization of the book. It consists of 21 chapters which are grouped into three parts. Each chapter splits into several sections. Chapters, sections, and the statements therein are enumerated in consecutive fashion.
