This second edition of the popular "A Multigrid Tutorial" preserves the introductory spirit of the first edition, while roughly doubling the amount of material covered. The topics of the first edition have been enhanced with additional discussion, new numerical experiments, and improved figures. New topics in the second edition include nonlinear ......
This book aims at developing a thorough understanding of the most general theory for interior-point methods, a class of algorithms for convex optimization problems. The study of these algorithms has dominated the continuous optimization literature for nearly 15 years. In that time, the theory has matured tremendously, but much of the literature is ......
Based on first principle quantum mechanics, electronic structure theory is widely used in physics, chemistry, materials science, and related fields and has recently received increasing research attention in applied and computational mathematics. This book provides a self-contained, mathematically oriented introduction to the subject and its ......
This expansive volume describes the history of numerical methods proposed to solve linear algebra problems,, from antiquity to the present day. The authors focus on methods for solving linear systems of equations and eigenvalue problems and describe the interplay between numerical methods and the computing tools available at the time. The second ......
Written in a simple style that requires no advanced mathematical or statistical background, A First Course in Order Statistics introduces the general theory of order statistics and their applications. The book covers topics such as distribution theory for order statistics from continuous and discrete populations, moment relations, bounds and ......
