Divided into two self-contained parts, this textbook is an introduction to modern real analysis. More than 350 exercises and 100 examples are integrated into the text to help clarify the theoretical considerations and the practical applications to differential geometry, Fourier series, differential equations, and other subjects. The first ......
In this textbook on calculus of one variable, applications to the natural sciences play a central role. Examples from biology, chemistry, and physics are discussed in detail without compromising the discussion of the mathematics essential to differential and integral calculus. Calculus for the Natural Sciences distinguishes itself from others on ......
In just over 100 pages, this book provides basic, essential knowledge of some of the tools of real analysis: the Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator, the Calderon-Zygmund theory, the Littlewood-Paley theory, interpolation of spaces and operators, and the basics of H1 and BMO spaces. This concise text offers brief proofs and exercises of various ......
Due to its ubiquity across a variety of fields in science and engineering, fractional calculus has gained momentum in industry and academia. While a number of books and papers introduce either fractional calculus or numerical approximations, no current literature provides a comprehensive collection of both topics. This monograph introduces ......

This book is the first to offer a systematic methodology for solving nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODEs) using power series, specifically those arising in mathematical physics. It provides tools to eliminate the tedious manipulation of infinite series, enabling recursive computation of all terms. The authors also present a structured ......
The shape of the Earth was a significant scientific question in the eighteenth century. When it was discovered that the Earth was flattened at the poles, scientists sought to understand the cause, leading to the study of the gravitational attraction of celestial spheroids. The solution drew upon Newton's law of universal gravitation, which used ......
Inverse scattering theory is a major theme in applied mathematics, with applications to such diverse areas as medical imaging, geophysical exploration, and nondestructive testing. The inverse scattering problem is both nonlinear and ill-posed, thus presenting challenges in the development of efficient inversion algorithms. A further complication ......
Fast solvers for elliptic PDEs form a pillar of scientific computing. They enable detailed and accurate simulations of electromagnetic fields, fluid flows, biochemical processes, and much more. This textbook provides an introduction to fast solvers from the point of view of integral equation formulations, which lead to unparalleled accuracy and ......
Addresses computational methods that have proven efficient for the solution of a large variety of nonlinear elliptic problems. These methods can be applied to many problems in science and engineering, but this book focuses on their application to problems in continuum mechanics and physics. This book differs from others on the topic by: ......
