Abstract

We consider multidimensional optimization problems, which are formulated and solved in terms of tropical mathematics. The problems are to minimize (maximize) a linear or nonlinear function defined on vectors over an idempotent semifield, and may have constraints in the form of linear equations and inequalities. The aim of the paper is twofold: first to give a broad overview of known tropical optimization problems and solution methods, including recent results; and second, to derive a direct, complete solution to a new constrained optimization problem as an illustration of the algebraic approach recently proposed to solve tropical optimization problems with nonlinear objective functions.
