These are the proceedings of the international conference on "e;Nonlinear numerical methods and Rational approximation II"e; organised by Annie Cuyt at the University of Antwerp (Belgium), 05-11 September 1993.
This book collects contributions to the conference"e; Dynamics, Bifurcation and Symmetry, new trends and new tools"e;, which was held at the Institut d'Etudes Sci- entifiques de Cargese (France), September 3-9, 1993.
The aim of this volume is to reinforce the interaction between the three main branches (abstract, convex and computational) of the theory of polytopes.
The Boundary Element Method is a simple, efficient and cost effective computational technique which provides numerical solutions - for objects of any shap- for a wide range of scientific and engineering problems.
This work is a revised and enlarged edition of a book with the same title published in Romanian by the Publishing House of the Romanian Academy in 1989.
In the present book the reader will find a review of methods for constructing a certain class of asymptotic solutions, which we call self-stabilizing solutions.
The papers collected in this volume are contributions to the 33rd session of the Seminaire de Mathematiques Superieures (SMS) on "e;Topological Methods in Differential Equations and Inclusions"e;.
"e;Models are often the only way of interpreting measurements to in- vestigate long-range transport, and this is the reason for the emphasis on them in many research programs"e;.
Harmonic Analysis in China is a collection of surveys and research papers written by distinguished Chinese mathematicians from within the People's Republic of China and expatriates.
Recent years have witnessed an increasingly close relationship growing between potential theory, probability and degenerate partial differential operators.
High Performance Computing in the Geosciences surveys the state of the art of programs presently being developed which require high performance computing for their implementation, provides a guide for decision making in regard to computing directions in future numerical models, and provides an overview of future developments in massively parallel processing and their implications for numerical modelling in the geosciences.
This book contains the transcripts of the invited lectures presented at the NATO Advanced Study Institute on "e;Numerical Solution of Partial Differential Equations"e;.
This study could not have been written before Professor Karl Deutsch made his great contribution to political science in his book, The Nerves of Govern- ment.
This book contains the transcripts of the lectures presented at the NATO Advanced study Institute on "e;Computational Techniques in Quantum Chemistry and Molecular Physics"e;, held at Ramsau, Germany, 4th - 21st Sept.
Since the 'Introduction' to the main text gives an account of the way in which the problems treated in the following pages originated, this 'Preface' may be limited to an acknowledgement of the support the work has received.
This book is concerned with the methods of solving the nonlinear Boltz- mann equation and of investigating its possibilities for describing some aerodynamic and physical problems.
Non-linear stochastic systems are at the center of many engineering disciplines and progress in theoretical research had led to a better understanding of non-linear phenomena.
Practical Asymptotics is an effective tool for reducing the complexity of large-scale applied-mathematical models arising in engineering, physics, chemistry, and industry, without compromising their accuracy.
New and striking results obtained in recent years from an intensive study of asymptotic combinatorics have led to a new, higher level of understanding of related problems: the theory of integrable systems, the Riemann-Hilbert problem, asymptotic representation theory, spectra of random matrices, combinatorics of Young diagrams and permutations, and even some aspects of quantum field theory.
When we first heard in the spring of 2000 that the Seminaire de matMmatiques superieures (SMS) was interested in devoting its session of the summer of 200l-its 40th-to scientific computing the idea of taking on the organizational work seemed to us somewhat remote.
A new foundation of Topology, summarized under the name Convenient Topology, is considered such that several deficiencies of topological and uniform spaces are remedied.
