This talk concerns the basic facts of convex optimization and variational inequalities. We will discuss about subgradients and provide important examples. Further we will discuss some important algorithms for non-smooth convex optimization like the projected subgradient method. We will also discuss some important algorithms for solving finite dimensional varitaional inequality problems.
