Extrapolation and Rational Approximation
Author: Claude Brezinski
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030584186
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 410
Book Description
This book paints a fresco of the field of extrapolation and rational approximation over the last several centuries to the present through the works of their primary contributors. It can serve as an introduction to the topics covered, including extrapolation methods, Padé approximation, orthogonal polynomials, continued fractions, Lanczos-type methods etc.; it also provides in depth discussion of the many links between these subjects. A highlight of this book is the presentation of the human side of the fields discussed via personal testimonies from contemporary researchers, their anecdotes, and their exclusive remembrances of some of the “actors.” This book shows how research in this domain started and evolved. Biographies of other scholars encountered have also been included. An important branch of mathematics is described in its historical context, opening the way to new developments. After a mathematical introduction, the book contains a precise description of the mathematical landscape of these fields spanning from the 19th century to the first part of the 20th. After an analysis of the works produced after that period (in particular those of Richardson, Aitken, Shanks, Wynn, and others), the most recent developments and applications are reviewed.

Extrapolation Methods
Author: C. Brezinski
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 0080506224
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 475
Book Description
This volume is a self-contained, exhaustive exposition of the extrapolation methods theory, and of the various algorithms and procedures for accelerating the convergence of scalar and vector sequences. Many subroutines (written in FORTRAN 77) with instructions for their use are provided on a floppy disk in order to demonstrate to those working with sequences the advantages of the use of extrapolation methods. Many numerical examples showing the effectiveness of the procedures and a consequent chapter on applications are also provided – including some never before published results and applications. Although intended for researchers in the field, and for those using extrapolation methods for solving particular problems, this volume also provides a valuable resource for graduate courses on the subject.

Richardson Extrapolation
Author: Zahari Zlatev
Publisher: Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG
ISBN: 3110533006
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 310
Book Description
Scientists and engineers are mainly using Richardson extrapolation as a computational tool for increasing the accuracy of various numerical algorithms for the treatment of systems of ordinary and partial differential equations and for improving the computational efficiency of the solution process by the automatic variation of the time-stepsizes. A third issue, the stability of the computations, is very often the most important one and, therefore, it is the major topic studied in all chapters of this book. Clear explanations and many examples make this text an easy-to-follow handbook for applied mathematicians, physicists and engineers working with scientific models based on differential equations. Contents The basic properties of Richardson extrapolation Richardson extrapolation for explicit Runge-Kutta methods Linear multistep and predictor-corrector methods Richardson extrapolation for some implicit methods Richardson extrapolation for splitting techniques Richardson extrapolation for advection problems Richardson extrapolation for some other problems General conclusions
