Description

Explore the fundamentals of global optimization with this comprehensive text from Cambridge University Press. As the first detailed introduction to the moment approach, this book provides a roadmap for solving complex optimization problems described by polynomials and semi-algebraic functions. Readers will learn how to apply recent results from real algebraic geometry to create a systematic numerical scheme. This method allows for the computation of optimal values and global minimizers with precision. By utilizing powerful positivity certificates, the text explains how to define a hierarchy of semidefinite (SOS) relaxations or LP relaxations. This volume is part of the Cambridge Texts in Applied Mathematics series (Number 52), making it an essential resource for students and researchers in algebra and applied mathematics. It offers a clear path to understanding how real algebraic geometry can be used to tackle modern mathematical challenges.
