Abstract

We present a way of solving the problem of minimizing the root of quadratic functional subject to an affine constraint. We give an explicit formula for computing the solutions of such a problem. This is of interest for solving significant problems of financial economics as well as some classes of feasibility and optimization problems which frequently occur in tomography and other fields.
