Minisum Hyperspheres (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book presents a self-contained introduction to the theory of minisum hyperspheres. This specialized research area within the larger field of geometric optimization is full of interesting and open problems.

This work provides an overview of the history of minisum hyperspheres as well as describes the best techniques for developing and solving minisum hypersphere problems. Various related areas of geometric and nonlinear optimization are also discussed.

As the first publication devoted to this area of research, this work will be of great interest to graduate-level researchers studying minisum hypersphere problems as well as mathematicians interested geometric optimization.

Rezensionen

From the reviews:
"This little book is fully devoted to what is known about the following median hypersphere problem and several of its variants ... . This book will be of interest to any researcher interested in continuous location theory and/or distance geometry." (Frank Plastria, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2012 f)
