Geometric methods and optimization problems

From MaRDI portal





The book deals with three disciplines of applied mathematics: control theory, location science and computational geometry. The authors show how methods from convex geometry can help to solve various problems from these disciplines. In the first part (Non-classical Variational Calculus) the tent method as an application of a generalized separation theory of convex cones is presented. In parts II (Median Problems in Location Science) and III (Minimum Convex Partitions of Polygonal Domains), various median problems in Euclidean and Minkowski spaces and different types of partitionings of topologically complicated polygonal domains into a minimum number of convex pieces are considered.
