Description for Numerical Polynomial Algebra
Paperback.
In many important areas of scientific computing, polynomials in one or more variables are employed in the mathematical modeling of real-life phenomena; yet most of classical computer algebra assumes exact rational data. This book is the first comprehensive treatment of numerical polynomial algebra, an emerging area that falls between classical numerical analysis and classical computer algebra, and which has received surprisingly little attention so far. The author introduces a conceptual framework that permits the meaningful solution of various algebraic problems with multivariate polynomial equations whose coefficients have some indeterminacy; for this purpose, he combines approaches of both numerical linear algebra ...

Reviews for Numerical Polynomial Algebra
'This first book on the numerical analysis of polynomial systems is a stepping stone at the interface of symbolic computation and numerical computation.' Bernard Sturmfels, University of Berkeley 'I am not familiar with any books that do such a careful job of combining numerical analysis with the algebra of polynomial equations. Dr Stetter's book is unique in this regard.' David ... Read more
