ISBN: 0738201294 ISBN-13: 9780738201290 Publisher: CRC Press OUR PRICE: $133.00 Product Type: Hardcover - Other Formats Published: February 2000 Annotation: A textbook for a one-year course for beginning graduate students in applied mathematics, science, and engineering who have studied linear algebra, ordinary and partial differential equations, and complex variables at an undergraduate level. Keener (mathematics, U. of Utah) emphasizes a working, systematic understanding of classical techniques in a modern context, and shows how the spectral theory of operators and asymptotic analysis are useful for solving a wide range of problems. He mentions no date for the first edition, but in the second updates exercises for current software and revises parts of most chapters. |

| Publisher Description: Principles of Applied Mathematics provides a comprehensive look at how classical methods are used in many fields and contexts. Updated to reflect developments of the last twenty years, it shows how two areas of classical applied mathematics?spectral theory of operators and asymptotic analysis?are useful for solving a wide range of applied science problems. Topics such as asymptotic expansions, inverse scattering theory, and perturbation methods are combined in a unified way with classical theory of linear operators. Several new topics, including wavelength analysis, multigrid methods, and homogenization theory, are blended into this mix to amplify this theme.This book is ideal as a survey course for graduate students in applied mathematics and theoretically oriented engineering and science students. This most recent edition, for the first time, now includes extensive corrections collated and collected by the author. |
