This is a collection of papers dedicated to Leonid Kantorovich and
his work. Kantorovich was a Russian mathematician and economist who
published in the three areas covered in this book: functional
analysis, optimization, and mathematical economics. Kantorovich is
credited as being amongst the first inventors of linear
programming, the primary technique of optimization. Linear
programming consists of creating a matrix of parameters relevant to
a system and maximizing the unknown variables using those
constraints. Kantorovich then applied this theory to optimal
macroeconomic planning in a socialist economy, for which he
received the Nobel prize. The present book is dedicated to the
memory of Kantorovich, who died in 1986, but is more than a
Festschrift. It contains original contributions from several
researchers in the USSR never before seen in the US, which enhances
the value of the volume. It is organized in a logical sequence from
the mathematics to the applications of the theories to concrete
problems.
