Numerical mathematics proposes, develops, analyzes and applies methods from scientific computing to several fields including analysis, linear algebra, geometry, approximation theory, functional equations, optimization and differential equations.
This book provides the mathematical foundations of numerical methods and demonstrate their performance on examples, exercises and real-life applications. This is done using the MATLAB software environment, which allows an easy implementation and testing of the algorithms for any specific class of problems.
The book is addressed to students in Engineering, Mathematics, Physics and Computer Sciences. The attention to applications and software development makes it valuable also for users in a wide variety of professional fields.
In this second edition, the readability of pictures, tables and program headings has been improved. Several changes in the chapters on iterative methods and on polynomial approximation have also been added.
“It is a joy to read the book, it is carefully written and well printed.” (Werner H.Schmidt, zbMATH 0957.65001, 2021)
From the reviews of the first edition:
SIAM REVIEW
"I found many of the examples to be quite interesting. I find no fault with any of the theoretical portions of the text. The authors are quite thorough in their discussion of the theory underlying each of the topics…This text uses MATLAB for programming the numerical codes. This is a very good choice…It contains a lot of interesting and useful information for experienced users of numerical methods…"
