Aim

The goal of the course is to give students the tools and training to recognize convex optimization problems that arise in applications. We present the basic theory of such problems, concentrating on results that are useful in algorithms for numerically solving the problems. The course will give the students a thorough understanding of how such problems are solved and give them experience in solving them, with the aim of giving the students the background required to use the methods in their own research.
