Convex optimization of optimization problem is convex. "Standard form" is the usual and perhaps most intuitive form of describing a convex minimization problem. It consists of the following three parts: A convex minimization problem in standard form is thus written as In reality, this form of problem is exactly equivalent to a problem constrained by only equalities. You can rephrase the problem without equality constraints by replacing each equality constraint formula_52 with a pair of inequality constraints formula_64 and formula_65, and the previous analysis holds. This fact is why formula_53 being both convex and concave, i.e. both formula_53 and formula_68 are convex,
Lens (optics) object off the optical axis of the lens is imaged, where rays pass through the lens at an angle to the axis θ. Rays that pass through the centre of a lens of focal length "f" are focused at a point with distance from the axis. Rays passing through the outer margins of the lens are focused at different points, either further from the axis (positive coma) or closer to the axis (negative coma). In general, a bundle of parallel rays passing through the lens at a fixed distance from the centre of the lens are focused to a ring-shaped
