Continuous Optimization Seminar

We are pleased to invite you to attend the Continuous Optimization Seminar Series at the University of Waterloo.
This seminar is organized by members of Department of Combinatorics & Optimization, Faculty of Mathematics.

Topics in the series include:

convex optimization,
linear / quadratic / semidefinite programming,
compressed sensing,
polynomial programming,
relaxations of hard combinatorial problems,
mathematical finance,

and a variety of other applied and theoretical subjects related to continuous optimization.
