Variational Methods in Partially Ordered Spaces

This book discusses basic tools of partially ordered spaces and applies them to variational methods in Nonlinear Analysis and for optimizing problems. This book is aimed at graduate students and research mathematicians.

Tools in partially ordered spaces are applied to variational methods in nonlinear analysis & optimization theory Developments on vector equilibrium problems; asymptotic behavior of associated Cauchy-type dynamical systems Approaches to robustness & stochastic programming in scalar optimization under uncertainty are derived

Professor Alfred Göpfert researched and taught at the University of Leipzig, at the Technical University of Leuna-Merseburg and at Martin-Luther-University Halle-Wittenberg (Germany). In 1973, his book "Mathematische Optimierung in allgemeinen Vektorräumen" was published by Teubner. Alfred Göpfert has co-authored the textbooks "Funktionalanalysis" (Teubner, 4th edition 1994) and "Lexikon der Optimierung - Optimierung und optimale Steuerung" (Akademie Verlag Berlin, 1986) as well as the monographs "Vektoroptimierung - Theorie, Verfahren und Anwendungen" (Teubner, 1990) and "Variational Methods in Partially Ordered Spaces" (Springer, 2003). Alfred Göpfert worked on the final version of the second edition of the monograph "Variational Methods in Partially Ordered Spaces" until his death in January 2023.
