Cord-slope form of Taylor's expansion in univariate global optimization

TL;DR: In this paper, Taylor's formula is used to bound the slope of the cord of a univariate function at a given point, which leads in turn to bounding the values of the function itself.

Global Minimization of Univariate Functions by Sequential Polynomial Approximation

TL;DR: A new ordered sequential algorithm in which step-sizes are such that the function can be approximated locally by a polynomial with a precision of e.g. cm2, which explores efficiently the vicinity of the optimum, while other sequential algorithms do not.

Modified Piyavskii's Global One-Dimensional Optimization of a Differentiable Function

TL;DR: In this article, a modified Piyavskii's algorithm (nC) was proposed to maximize a univariate differentiable function by iteratively constructing an upper bound of a piece-wise concave function of f and evaluating f at a point where Φ reaches its maximum.
