    Constrained optimization troubles

    I'm trying to find the regular parallelepiped with sides parallel to the coordinate axis inscribed in the ellipsoid x[2]/a[2] + y[2]/b[2] + z[2]/c[2] = 1 that has the largest volume. I've been trying the Lagrangian method: minimize f = (x)(y)(z), subject to the constraint (x[2]/a[2] + y[2]/b[2]...
