Set-Valued Mappings and Enlargements of Monotone Operators (eBook, PDF)

Beschreibung

This work offers the first comprehensive treatment in book form of the fairly new subdiscipline in set-valued analysis of enlargements of maximal monotone operators, including several important new results in the field. In the last decades, with the development of nonsmooth optimization, effective algorithms have been developed to solve these kinds of problems, such as nonsmooth variational inequalities. Several of these methods, such as bundle methods for variational problems, are fully developed and analyzed in this book.

This book is addressed to mathematicians, engineers, economists, and researchers interested in acquiring a solid mathematical foundation in the subject matter. Containing extensive exercises and examples throughout the text, the first four chapters of the book can also be used for a one-quarter course in set-valued analysis and maximal monotone operators for graduate students in pure and applied mathematics, mathematical economics, operations research and related areas.

Rezensionen

From the reviews: "This book is a welcome new monograph on set-valued mappings. The emphasis is on enlargements of monotone operators. ... The authors are major contributors to the research in this area. They give, with much insight, a systematic and efficient account of the state of the art of the recent research in this area ... . Most of the sections are accompanied by exercises, making the book also a nice choice for a graduate topic course." (Qiji Jim Zhu, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2008 h) "The main aim of this book is to give a relatively brief and self-contained review of the basics of set-valued analysis in a Banach space, and to present most significant results related to existence of fixed points of multivalued mappings. ... At the end of each chapter the authors give detailed historical notes and references for further reading. The volume can be read by anyone with a basic knowledge of real and functional analysis." (Mikhail Yu. Kokurin, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1154, 2009)
