This volume contains thirty-three selected general research papers devoted to the theory and application of the mathematics of constrained optimization, including linear programming and its extensions to convex programming, general nonlinear programming, integer programming, and programming under uncertainty.
Blackjackal is a new three card game that takes quick analytic thinking from blackjack, table aggression and blluffing from hold 'em poker and transports the player to the hot savanna of a new and fierce gambling experience.
A semantically well-defined programming language widely used in artificial intelligence, Prolog has greatly influenced other programming languages since its introduction in the late 1970s.
Classic contributions to game theory from the acclaimed Annals of Mathematics Studies seriesPrinceton University Press is proud to have published the Annals of Mathematics Studies since 1940.
The intention of the authors is to examine the relationship between piecewise linear structure and differential structure: a relationship, they assert, that can be understood as a homotopy obstruction theory, and, hence, can be studied by using the traditional techniques of algebraic topology.

A richly transdisciplinary account of some fundamental characteristics of human societies and behaviorIn this book, acclaimed economist Herbert Gintis ranges widely across many fields-including economics, psychology, anthropology, sociology, moral philosophy, and biology-to provide a rigorous transdisciplinary explanation of some fundamental characteristics of human societies and social behavior.
The essential textbook for learning game theory strategiesGame Theory in Action is a textbook about using game theory across a range of real-life scenarios.
The first interdisciplinary textbook to introduce students to three critical areas in applied logicDemonstrating the different roles that logic plays in the disciplines of computer science, mathematics, and philosophy, this concise undergraduate textbook covers select topics from three different areas of logic: proof theory, computability theory, and nonclassical logic.
This classic book is an introduction to dynamic programming, presented by the scientist who coined the term and developed the theory in its early stages.
Robust optimization is still a relatively new approach to optimization problems affected by uncertainty, but it has already proved so useful in real applications that it is difficult to tackle such problems today without considering this powerful methodology.
'A joy' Philippe Sands'Glorious' David SpiegelhalterA fascinating, enchanting and personal look at the meaning of luck, and the way in which it has shaped our shared history and continues to inflect our day to day lives.
Quantal Response Equilibrium presents a stochastic theory of games that unites probabilistic choice models developed in psychology and statistics with the Nash equilibrium approach of classical game theory.
Actuator and sensor delays are among the most common dynamic phenomena in engineering practice, and when disregarded, they render controlled systems unstable.
An essential introduction to the analysis and verification of control system softwareThe verification of control system software is critical to a host of technologies and industries, from aeronautics and medical technology to the cars we drive.
A brand-new conceptual look at dynamical thermodynamics This book merges the two universalisms of thermodynamics and dynamical systems theory in a single compendium, with the latter providing an ideal language for the former, to develop a new and unique framework for dynamical thermodynamics.
This book describes the latest advances in the theory of mean field games, which are optimal control problems with a continuum of players, each of them interacting with the whole statistical distribution of a population.
Recognizing that robust decision making is vital in risk management, this book provides concepts and algorithms for computing the best decision in view of the worst-case scenario.
La optimizacion es una herramienta matematica utilizada ampliamente para disenar, mejorar y controlar sistemas en organizaciones publicas y privadas de diversa indole (energia, servicios, telecomunicaciones, salud, transporte, finanzas, manufactura, logistica, etc.
How a New York Times bestselling author and New Yorker contributor parlayed a strong grasp of the science of human decision-making and a woeful ignorance of cards into a life-changing run as a professional poker player, under the wing of a legend of the gameMaria Konnikova had never actually played poker before and didn't even know the rules when she approached Erik Seidel - Poker Hall of Fame inductee, winner of tens of millions of dollars in earnings - and asked him to be her mentor.
'BRILLIANTLY CLEAR AND CAPTIVATING PROSE' STEPHEN FRYA WATERSTONES BOOK OF YEAR 2023An award-winning mathematician explores the maths behind the games we love and why we love to play them.
Dan Ariely's three New York Times bestselling books on his groundbreaking behavioral economics research, Predictably Irrational, The Upside of Irrationality, and The (Honest) Truth About Dishonesty, are now available for the first time in a single volume.
From the author of The Music of the Primes and Finding Moonshine comes a short, lively book on five mathematical problems that just refuse be solved - and on how many everyday problems can be solved by maths.
