Theory of Linear Optimization

This monograph is devoted to the basic component of the theory of linear optimisation problems: systems of linear inequalities. Such an approach is exact in both a historical and methodological sense.In the first two chapters attention focuses on economic interpretation of models, theorems, and approaches. The other chapters are dedicated to less traditional problems of linear optimisation, such as improper problems and duality, lexicographic problems and duality, piecewise linear problems and duality, etc. The book also covers some general methods for calculating processes for certain problems of linear optimisation: the problem of stability and correctness.This book contains original scientific material, which is of value and interest to students and specialists in mathematical optimisation, operation research, economic-mathematical modelling and related disciplines.
