Features: The achievements of mathematical science have become an important foundation for the progress and development of the current high-tech era, and the development of applied mathematics serves as a strong pillar supporting the prosperity of science, technology, and industry. To meet the challenges of the 21st century, this handbook introduces various branches of modern applied mathematics, providing an indispensable tool for solving research, mathematical, and practical problems in production. The entire handbook consists of six volumes: "Operations Research and Optimization Theory," "Modern Applied Analysis," "Probability, Statistics, and Random Processes," "Discrete Mathematics," "Analysis and Equations," and "Computation and Numerical Analysis." Each volume is self-contained and independent, offering readers the flexibility to choose based on their needs. This book is a comprehensive reference for operations research and optimization theory, featuring up-to-date content, strong practicality, and convenient access. It primarily introduces teaching models and computational methods of operations research and optimization theory in various real-world problems in scientific research, engineering technology, and economic management. This volume is divided into six chapters: Linear Programming, Nonlinear Programming, Integer Programming, Dynamic Programming, Multi-Objective Programming, and Game Theory, accompanied by numerous examples to facilitate deeper understanding, mastery, and application. For easy reference, a Chinese-English glossary and an English-Chinese glossary are also included. This book is suitable for researchers, engineering and technical personnel, managers, faculty and students of universities and colleges, as well as graduate students.
