The author formally develops the gradients of smooth functionals in representative situations for computational purposes and discusses numerical approaches in multiobjective optimization. These approaches, including two original methods that go beyond a classical course, provide guidance in solving specific problems. This book also provides test cases in simulation and optimization typical of aeronautical engineering problems as well as exercises. 2026 / x + 194 pages / Softcover / ISBN 978-1-61197-910-7 / List $77.00 / SIAM Member $53.90 / OT214 Bookstore link: https://epubs.siam.org/doi/book/10.1137/1.9781611979091 ------------------------------------------------------- From: Christian Lubich lubich@na.uni-tuebingen.de Date: October 03, 2026 Subject: New book, Matrix Nearness Problems and Eigenvalue Optimization We announce the book Matrix Nearness Problems and Eigenvalue Optimization by Nicola Guglielmi and Christian Lubich. Matrix nearness problems ask how far a given matrix is from having a prescribed desired or undesired property. This book considers spectral properties such as singularity, defectivity, stability, and instability, as well as systems-theoretic properties such as controllability and passivity, and graph-theoretic properties such as connectivity and centrality. Such problems arise naturally in numerical linear algebra, dynamical systems, robust control, graph theory, and other areas of applied mathematics. The book develops a computational framework for a broad class of matrix nearness problems based on eigenvalue optimization. Exploiting the low-rank structure of optimal perturbations, it presents efficient two-level algorithms combining low-rank matrix differential equations with scalar root-finding techniques. The book covers mathematical foundations, derivation and analysis of algorithms, and a variety of applications.
