Bauer maximum principle
text:
Bauer's maximum principle is the following theorem in mathematical optimization: It is attributed to the German mathematician Heinz Bauer. Bauer's maximum principle immediately implies the analogue minimum principle: Since a linear function is simultaneously convex and concave, it satisfies both principles, i.e., it attains both its maximum and its minimum at extreme points. Bauer's maximization principle has applications in various fields, for example, differential equations and economics.
