Abstract
This paper investigates an unconstrained form of classical Weber problem. The main idea is to reformulate Weber problem as an unconstrained minimum norm problem. A result based on the representation of the objective function as a Lipschitzian function, which is necessarily a convex function, is proposed. The existence of global solution to such
problem is proven using coercivity assumptions. African Journal of Educational Studies in Mathematics and Sciences Vol. 5 2007: pp. 29-34
