Moments, Positive Polynomials And Their Applications

Discover the groundbreaking work of Jean-Bernard Lasserre in Moments, Positive Polynomials And Their Applications, published by Imperial College Press in 2009. This comprehensive volume spans 384 pages and delves into the vital connections between global optimization, algebra, probability, statistics, applied mathematics, control theory, and financial mathematics. Lasserre presents a robust methodology for tackling the Generalized Moment Problem (GMP) when the underlying data consists of polynomials and fundamental semi-algebraic sets. This book is an essential resource for researchers and practitioners looking to deepen their understanding of mathematical optimization and moment problems. Enhance your mathematical toolkit with this insightful exploration of positive polynomials and their diverse applications.
