Introduction to Optimization Theory in a Hilbert Space

This book is based on lectures given in a one-quarter course at UCLA. The aim. is to present som.e of the basic concepts and techniques of Functional Analys.is of relevance to optim.ization problem.s in Control. Com.m.unication and other areas in System. Science. The students are expected to have had an introductory course in Hilbert Space theory. Som.e effort has been m.ade to be self-contained m...
