What can’t be ignored
Alfio Quarteroni; Fausto Saleri
In this book we will systematically use elementary mathematical concepts which the reader should know already, yet he or she might not recall them immediately.
Pp. 1-38
Nonlinear equations
Alfio Quarteroni; Fausto Saleri
Computing the of a real function (equivalently, the of the equation () = 0) is a problem that we encounter quite often in scienti fic computing. In general, this task cannot be accomplished in a finite number of operations. For instance, we have already seen in Section 1.4.1 that when is a generic polynomial of degree greater than four, there do not exist explicit formulae for the zeros. The situation is even more difficult when is not a polynomial.
Pp. 39-69
Approximation of functions and data
Alfio Quarteroni; Fausto Saleri
Approximating a function consists of replacing it by another function of simpler form that may be used as its surrogate. This strategy is used frequently in numerical integration where, instead of computing ∫ (), one carries out the exact computation of ∫ (), being a function simple to integrate (e.g. a polynomial), as we will see in the next chapter. In other instances the function may be available only partially through its values at some selected points. In these cases we aim at constructing a continuous function that could represent the empirical law which is behind the finite set of data. We provide some examples which illustrate this kind of approach.
Pp. 71-99
Numerical differentiation and integration
Alfio Quarteroni; Fausto Saleri
In this chapter we propose methods for the numerical approximation of derivatives and integrals of functions. Concerning integration, quite often for a generic function it is not possible to find a primitive in an explicit form. Even when a primitive is known, its use might not be easy.
Pp. 101-122
Linear systems
Alfio Quarteroni; Fausto Saleri
In applied sciences, one is quite often led to face a linear system of the form
Pp. 123-166
Eigenvalues and eigenvectors
Alfio Quarteroni; Fausto Saleri
Given a square matrix A ∈ℂ, the eigenvalue problem consists in finding a scalar λ (real or complex) and a nonnull vector such that
Pp. 167-185
Ordinary differential equations
Alfio Quarteroni; Fausto Saleri
A differential equation is an equation involving one or more derivatives of an unknown function. If all derivatives are taken with respect to a single independent variable we call it an , whereas we have a when partial derivatives are present.
Pp. 187-236
Numerical methods for (initial-)boundary-value problems
Alfio Quarteroni; Fausto Saleri
Boundary-value problems are differential problems set in an interval (, ) of the real line or in an open multidimensional region Ω ⊂ ℝ ( = 2, 3) for which the value of the unknown solution (or its derivatives) is prescribed at the end-points and of the interval, or on the boundary ∂Ω of the multidimensional region.
Pp. 237-265
Solutions of the exercises
Alfio Quarteroni; Fausto Saleri
Solution 1.1 Only the numbers of the form ±0.1 · 2 with = 0,1 and e = ±2,±1,0 belong to the set F(2, 2,−2, 2). For a given exponent, we can represent in this set only the two numbers 0.10 and 0.11, and their opposites. Consequently, the number of elements belonging to F(2, 2,−2, 2) is 20. Finally, ∈ = ½.
