lead the reader to a theoretical understanding of the subject without neglecting its practical aspects. The outcome is a textbook that is mathematically honest and rigorous and provides its target audience with a wide range of skills in both ordinary and partial differential equations." --Book Jacket.
This book familiarizes the mathematical community with an analytic tool that is capable of so many applications and presents a list of open problems which might be amenable to analysis with order stars.
/homepage/sac/cam/na2000/index.html7-Volume Set now available at special set price ! This volume contains contributions in the area of differential equations and integral equations. Many numerical methods have arisen in response to the need to solve "real-life" problems in applied mathematics, in particular problems that do not have a closed-form solution. Contributions on both initial-value problems and boundary-value problems in ordinary differential equations appear in this volume. Numerical methods for initial-value problems in ordinary differential equations fall naturally into two classes: those which use one starting value at each step (one-step methods) and those which are based on s...
The 13 lectures are intended to be accessible to new graduate students of mathematics, sacrificing some detail in order to offer an accessible introduction to the fundamentals of stability that can provide a foundation for further study. Presenters from the US and Britain cover preserving qualitative stability features and structural stability, and investigating physical stability and model stability.

The volume is dedicated to Stephen Smale on the occasion of his 80th birthday.Besides his startling 1960 result of the proof of the Poincar ́e conjecture for all dimensionsgreater than or equal to five, Smale’s ground breaking contributions invarious fields in Mathematics have marked the second part of the 20th century andbeyond. Stephen Smale has done pioneering work in differential topology, globalanalysis, dynamical systems, nonlinear functional analysis, numerical analysis, theoryof computation and machine learning as well as applications in the physical andbiological sciences and economics. In sum, Stephen Smale has manifestly brokenthe barriers among the different fields of mathematics and dispelled some remainingprejudices. He is indeed a universal mathematician. Smale has been honoredwith several prizes and honorary degrees including, among others, the Fields Medal(1966), The Veblen Prize (1966), the National Medal of Science (1996) and theWolfPrize (2006/2007).
This book explores the use of the concept of biorthogonality and discusses the various recurrence relations for the generalizations of the method of moments, the method of Lanczos, and the biconjugate gradient method. It is helpful for researchers in numerical analysis and approximation theory.
This volume contains selected papers of the proceedings of the first Hellenic Conference on Mathematics and Informatics (HERMIS '92). The main theme for HERMIS '92 Conference was Computer Mathematics, with special emphasis on Computational Mathematics, Operational Research and Statistics, and Mathematics in Economic Science. The presented papers of the HERMIS Conference have been classified into the following technical sessions: Numerical solution of Differential Equations, Parallel Processing and Parallel Algorithms, Optimization and Approximation, Algorithms in Operational Research and Control Theory, Statistical Methods and Analysis, Mathematics in Economic Science, Artificial Intelligence and Data Bases Technology.In addition, a number of selected research articles published recently in the Hellenic Mathematical Society Bulletin in the form of special issues on Computer Mathematics (Volumes 31 and 32) are also included.
The Workshop on Group Theory and Numerical Analysis brought together scientists working in several different but related areas. The unifying theme was the application of group theory and geometrical methods to the solution of differential and difference equations. The emphasis was on the combination of analytical and numerical methods and also the use of symbolic computation. This meeting was organized under the auspices of the Centre de Recherches Mathematiques, Universite de Montreal (Canada). This volume has the character of a monograph and should represent a useful reference book for scientists working in this highly topical field.
This book deals with numerical methods that preserve properties of Hamiltonian systems, reversible systems, differential equations on manifolds and problems with highly oscillatory solutions. A complete self-contained theory of symplectic and symmetric methods, which include Runge-Kutta, composition, splitting, multistep and various specially designed integrators, is presented and their construction and practical merits are discussed. The long-time behaviour of the numerical solutions is studied using a backward error analysis (modified equations) combined with KAM theory. The book is illustrated by numerous figures, treats applications from physics and astronomy, and contains many numerical experiments and comparisons of different approaches.
This volume contains papers from the 7th International Conference on Difference Equations held at Hunan University (Changsa, China), a satellite conference of ICM2002 Beijing. The volume captures the spirit of the meeting and includes peer-reviewed survey papers, research papers, and open problems and conjectures. Articles cover stability, oscillation, chaos, symmetries, boundary value problems and bifurcations for discrete dynamical systems, difference-differential equations, and discretization of continuous systems. The book presents state-of-the-art research in these important areas. It is suitable for graduate students and researchers in difference equations and related topics.
