Illustrated by sampling numerical methods from mathematical
analysis, linear algebra, and differential equations, A Theoretical
Introduction to Numerical Analysis presents the general methodology
and principles of numerical analysis. The book emphasizes
fundamentals and links between sub-disciplines. It provides
coverage of topics such as Lebesgue constants, Chebyshev
polynomials, stability on initial boundary value problems,
interpolation in two variables, and splines.. Carefully structured
for learning at different levels of depth, this text is organized
so that chapters can be read independently, allowing instructors to
tailor the course to students' needs, with enough material for
three semester long courses.
