Motivated by both theoretical interests and industry problems in wireless communication, we address resource allocation problems such as Shannon rate maximization, with a focus on resolving the notorious difficulties due to nonconvexity using new tools in nonnegative matrix theory, nonlinear Perron-Frobenius theory and optimization theory. We conclude the talk by highlighting new theoretical ideas extracted in these works and their impact on industry trends.
