  13. Does anyone know of a good reference work for problems involving
  14. functional minimization with non-linear constraints?  I have a
  15. function of many variables with a complicated  constraint condition
  16. between them which I need to solve both quickly and reliably.  I have
  17. looked through several articles in the Journal of Optimization Theory
  18. and Applications, but being a non-specialist in the area, the
  19. terminology and notation is highly confusing to me.  A decent review
  20. article or book would be a godsend.
  21.  
  22. Thanks in advance.
