About the Book
The Simplex Method for Linear Programming by F. A. Ficken provides a concise yet comprehensive guide to understanding the simplex method, a widely used approach for solving optimization problems in linear programming. Designed with undergraduate students in mind, this book offers a clear, accessible treatment of the subject without requiring a deep background in linear algebra.
The text begins by introducing foundational concepts such as allocation problems, matrix notation for dual problems, feasibility, and duality theorems. The following chapters delve into topics like convex sets, boundedness, optimal points, and the intricacies of the simplex method and its corresponding tableaux. By breaking down complex theories and presenting them in digestible sections, Ficken offers a systematic way of understanding the simplex method and its practical applications.
In addition, two helpful appendices provide supplementary material, further enriching the reader’s understanding of the concepts explored throughout the book. Whether you are new to linear programming or looking to strengthen your grasp of optimization techniques, this work serves as an excellent, student-friendly resource.
