What Does NDLM Stand For?

NDLM stands for Nondiagonal Lagrange Multiplier

NDLM, or Nondiagonal Lagrange Multiplier, refers to a mathematical approach used in optimization problems, particularly in constrained optimization scenarios. Unlike traditional Lagrange multiplier methods that often assume diagonal structures for constraints, NDLM allows for the inclusion of non-diagonal elements, enabling the handling of more complex relationships between variables. This technique is particularly beneficial in fields such as engineering and economics, where interdependencies among constraints and variables must be effectively managed to arrive at optimal solutions.
