​Abstract

​Convex optimization has become more interesting in studies because of its efficient applications in finance, management science, automatic control systems, economics, signal and image processing, statistics and data analysis. In the present work, we give an in depth analysis of convex optimization in Banach spaces. Lastly, we give the applications to financial engineering.

Keywords: Semi-continuous function; Convexity; Optimization; Financial engineering; Hilbert space.
