GLOBAL OPTIMIZATION APPROACH TO UTILITY MAXIMIZATION PROBLEM
, 2015 We consider the utility maximization problem for oligopsonistic market which is nonconvex optimization problem. Unlike the utility maximization for competitive market, the problem belongs to a class of global optimization. The purpose of this paper is to

Some remarks on an efficient algorithm to find a centroid in a k-dimensional real space
, 2016 Given a finite configuration of points in a metric space, a Steiner center (respectively, a centroid) is the point of the space (respectively, of the configuration) that minimizes the sum of the distances from all its elements.
