Tom Lyche Author & Editor

Both authors have a long experience, at university and engineering school, in teaching numerical methods and numerical analysis. The authors started research collaboration a few years ago. They realized that they had complementary approaches to mathematical research and teaching. They think that combining these approaches gives an interesting perspective for an original book.
