β¦ Synopsis
In this monograph the author presents the theory of duality for nonconvex approximation in normed linear spaces and nonconvex global optimization in locally convex spaces. Detailed proofs of results are given, along with varied illustrations. While many of the results have been published in mathematical journals, this is the first time these results appear in book form. In addition, unpublished results and new proofs are provided. This monograph should be of great interest to experts in this and related fields.

The theory of convex optimization has been constantlyΒ developing over the past 30 years.Β Most recently, many researchers have been studying more complicated classes of problems that still can be studied by means of convex analysis, so-called "anticonvex" and "convex-anticonvex" optimizaton problems
This book presents the recent development of stochastic approximation algorithms with expanding truncations based on the TS (trajectory-subsequence) method, a newly developed method for convergence analysis. This approach is so powerful that conditions used for guaranteeing convergence have been
Motivated by practical problems in engineering and physics, drawing on a wide range of applied mathematical disciplines, this book is the first to provide, within a unified framework, a self-contained comprehensive mathematical theory of duality for general non-convex, non-smooth systems, with e
