'With its inviting embedded-first progression and its many examples and exercises, this book constitutes an excellent companion to the literature on Riemannian optimization - from the early developments in the late 20th century to topics that have gained prominence since the 2008 book 'Optimization Algorithms on Matrix Manifolds', and related software, such as Manopt/Pymanopt/Manopt.jl.' P.-A. Absil, University of Louvain 'This new book by Nicolas Boumal focuses on optimization on manifolds, which appears naturally in many areas of data science. It successfully covers all important and required concepts in differential geometry with an intuitive and pedagogical approach which is adapted to readers with no prior exposure. Algorithms and analysis are then presented with the perfect mix of significance and mathematical depth. This is a must-read for all graduate students and researchers in data science.' Francis Bach, INRIA

Author Information

Nicolas Boumal is Assistant Professor of Mathematics at the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) in Switzerland, and an Associate Editor of the journal Mathematical Programming. His current research focuses on optimization, statistical estimation and numerical analysis. Over the course of his career, Boumal has contributed to several modern theoretical advances in Riemannian optimization. He is a lead-developer of the award-winning toolbox Manopt, which facilitates experimentation with optimization on manifolds.
