Post-Faustmann Forest Resource Economics
Springer 2013; US$ 99.99The current paradigm of forest economics is based on Faustmann Formulation (FF) of land expectation value proposed by Martin Faustmann. It was a great achievement by a forester to propose a formulation that captures some fundamental economic features of capital theory which. However, the followers of the FF approach have trapped themselves into the... more...
Topics in Nonconvex Optimization
Springer 2011; US$ 99.99Nonconvex Optimization is a multi-disciplinary research field that deals with the characterization and computation of local/global minima/maxima of nonlinear, nonconvex, nonsmooth, discrete and continuous functions. Nonconvex optimization problems are frequently encountered in modeling real world systems for a very broad range of applications including... more...
Economics, Sustainability, and Natural Resources
Springer 2006; US$ 199.99Forest resources are the ideal starting point for the economic analysis of sustainability. This book provides a critique of neoclassical economic approaches and their limitations with respect to sustainability. It discusses key economic aspects of sustainable forest management, including complexity, ethical issues, non-convexities, and more. more...
Institutions, Sustainability, and Natural Resources
Springer 2006; US$ 199.99Provides a critique of neoclassical economic approaches and their limitations with respect to sustainability. This book discusses theoretical perspectives about appropriate institutions for sustainable forest management, markets for environmental services, deforestation and specialization, the Kyoto Protocol, and international trade. more...
Invexity and Optimization
Springer 2008; US$ 129.99Invexity and Optimization presents results on invex function and their properties in smooth and nonsmooth cases, pseudolinearity and eta-pseudolinearity. Results on optimality and duality for a nonlinear scalar programming problem are presented, second and higher order duality results are given for a nonlinear scalar programming problem, and saddle... more...
V-Invex Functions and Vector Optimization
Springer 2007; US$ 84.99V-INVEX FUNCTIONS AND VECTOR OPTIMIZATION summarizes and synthesizes an aspect of research work that has been done in the area of Generalized Convexity over the past several decades. Specifically, the book focuses on V-invex functions in vector optimization that have grown out of the work of Jeyakumar and Mond in the 1990?s. V-invex functions are areas... more...
Generalized Convexity and Vector Optimization
Springer 2008; US$ 129.99Discusses the Kuhn-Tucker Optimality, Karush-Kuhn-Tucker Necessary and Sufficient Optimality Conditions in presence of various types of generalized convexity assumptions. This book also discusses Wolfe-type Duality, Mond-Weir type Duality, and Mixed type Duality for Multiobjective optimization problems such as Nonlinear programming problems. more...
