Theoretical numerical analysis: a functional analysis framework

This textbook prepares graduate students for research in numerical analysis/computational mathematics by giving to them a mathematical framework embedded in functional analysis and focused on numerical analysis. This helps the student to move rapidly into a research program. The text covers basic results of functional analysis, approximation theory, Fourier analysis and wavelets, iteration methods for nonlinear equations, finite difference methods, Sobolev spacesand weak formulations of boundary value problems, finite element methods, elliptic variational inequalities and their numerical solution, numerical methodsfor solving integral equations of the second kind, and boundary integral equations for planar regions. The presentation of each topic is meant to be an introduction with certain degree of depth. Comprehensive references on a particular topic are listed at the end of each chapter for further reading and study. Covers basic results of functional analysis and also some additional topics which are needed in theoretical numerical analysis Exercises at the end of most sections are included (419) Short discussion of the literature, including recommendations for additional reading is provided at the end of each chapter INDICE: Linear Spaces.- Linear Operators on Normed Spaces.- Approximation Theory.- Fourier Analysis and Wavelets.- Nonlinear Equations and Their Solution by Iteration.- Finite Difference Method.- Sobolev Spaces.- Weak Formulationsof Elliptic Boundary Value Problems.- The Galerkin Method and Its Variants.- Finite Element Analysis.- Elliptic Variational Inequalities and Their Numerical Approximations.- Numerical Solution of Fredholm Integral Equations of the Second Kind.- Boundary Integral Equations.- Multivariable Polynomial Approximations.- References.- Index.
