Computational Methods for Electromagnetic Phenomena

'This is a truly unique book that covers a variety of computational methods for several important physical (electromagnetics) problems in a rigorous manner with a great depth. It will benefit not only computational mathematicians, but also physicists and electrical engineers interested in numerical analysis of electrostatic, electrodynamic, and electron transport problems. The breadth (both in terms of physics and numerical analysis) and depth are very impressive. I like, in particular, the way the book is organized: a physical problem is described clearly first and then followed by the presentation of relevant state-of-the-art computational methods.' Jian-Ming Jin, Y. T. Lo Chair Professor in Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign
'This book is a great and unique contribution to computational modeling of electromagnetic problems across many fields, covering in depth all interesting multiscale phenomena, from electrostatics in biomolecules, to EM scattering, to electron transport in plasmas, and quantum electron transport in semiconductors. It includes both atomistic descriptions and continuum based formulations with emphasis on long-range interactions and high-order algorithms, respectively. The book is divided into three main parts and includes both established but also new algorithms on every topic addressed, e.g. fast multipole expansions, boundary integral equations, high-order finite elements, discontinuous Galerkin and WENO methods. Both the organization of the material and the exposition of physical and algorithmic concepts are superb and make the book accessible to researchers and students in every discipline.' George Karniadakis, Professor of Applied Mathematics, Brown University
'This is an excellent book for one who wants to study and understand the relationship between mathematical methods and the many different physical problems they can model and solve.' Weng Cho Chew, Y. T. Lo Chair Professor in Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign
'A well-written book which will be of use to a broad range of students and researchers in applied mathematics, applied physics and engineering. It provides a clear presentation of many topics in computational electromagnetics and illustrates their importance in a distinctive and diverse set of applications.' Leslie Greengard, Courant Institute, New York University
