Nonlinear Analysis Approximation Theory, Optimization and Applications

From the book reviews:

“This is a collection of survey papers on some topics in nonlinear functional analysis–best approximation, optimization, fixed point theory, monotone operators and variational inequalities, equilibrium problems. … Containing well written survey papers by renown experts, the volume will provide researchers in nonlinear analysis and related domains to a quick introduction and, at the same time, with a state-of-the-art in several very active area of current investigation.” (S. Cobzaş, Studia Universitatis Babeş-Bolyai, Mathematica, Vol. 59 (3), 2014)
