Moodle Page
All course materials are available on Moodle.
General Information
In this course we will give an introduction to optimization in Banach spaces which plays an important role e.g. in the optimization of partial differential equations. In this course we will discuss the following main topics:
- examples of optimization problems in Banach spaces,
- (repetition of) basic concepts of functional analysis,
- convexity and duality,
- numerical optimization methods.
