Review course covering fundamental fields of optimization, incl. computational methods. There are countless examples from almost all branches of human doing leading to problems coming under this discipline. Introduction to several other courses specialized in the solution of particular classes of optimization problems.

Fundamentals of discrete optimization:

  • Introduction, examples of optimization examples and techniques. Analysis of algorithms, implementation and complexity.
  • Euler walk, greedy algorithms, shortest path and relations.
  • Maximum matching and applications, relation to flows in networks. Heuristics and algorithms for matchings (incl. probabilistic). Postman problem.
  • Traveling salesman problem (TSP): heuristics, applications and relations.
  • Comparisons of hard and polynomial algorithms: TSP, postman problem, Euler tours, minimal spanning tree, minimal Steiner tree.

Fundamentals of continuous optimization:

  • Convex functions and sets
  • Convex optimization
  • Quadratic programming
  • Cone programming and duality
  • Karush-Kuhn-Tucker optimality conditions
  • Basic methods
  • Programming with uncertain data, robust optimization
