Description for Interpolation and Approximation by Polynomials (CMS Books in Mathematics)
Hardcover. Aimed at advanced undergraduate students and graduate students, this book is intended for a course in numerical analysis and approximation theory. It covers topics such as multivariate interpolation, Peano kernel theory, and the applications of q-integers to approximation theory. Series: CMS Books in Mathematics. Num Pages: 332 pages, 10 black & white tables, biography. BIC Classification: PBF; PBH. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 241 x 164 x 25. Weight in Grams: 636.
In addition to coverage of univariate interpolation and approximation, the text includes material on multivariate interpolation and multivariate numerical integration, a generalization of the Bernstein polynomials that has not previously appeared in book form, and a greater coverage of Peano kernel theory than is found in most textbooks. There are many worked examples and each section ends with a number of carefully selected problems that extend the student's understanding of the text. The author is well known for his clarity of writing and his many contributions as a researcher in approximation theory.
