This is an introductory text to optimization theory in normed spaces. It discusses existence results and various differentiability notions together with optimality conditions, the contingent cone, a generalization of the Lagrange multiplier rule, duality theory, and the investigation of linear quadratic and time minimal control problems. Particular emphasis is placed on application to problems in the calculus of variations, approximation and optimal control theory. The reader is expected to have a basic knowledge of linear ...
