Extremal problems are now playing an ever-increasing role in applications of mathematics.
It has been discovered that, notwithstanding the great diversity of
these problems, they can be attacked by a unified functional-analytic approach, first suggested by A. Ya. Dubovitskii and A. A. Milyutin.
The book is devoted to an
exposition of this approach and its application to the analysis of specific extremal problems.
All requisite material from functional analysis is first presented, and
a general scheme for derivation of optimum conditions is then described.
Using
this scheme, necessary extremum conditions are then derived for a series of problems - ranging from Pontryagin's maximum principle in optimal control theory to duality theorems in linear programming. The book should be of interest not only to mathematicians, but also to those working in other fields involving optimization problems.
