Description for Solving Transcendental Equations: The Chebyshev Polynomial Proxy and Other Numerical Rootfinders, Perturbation Series, and Oracles
Paperback. A guide to numerical methods for finding roots of single or coupled algebraic equations. Num Pages: 480 pages. BIC Classification: PBK. Category: (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 255 x 177 x 20. Weight in Grams: 864.
Transcendental equations arise in every branch of science and engineering. While some of these equations are easy to solve, many are not. When confronted with such an equation, this book serves as an indispensable resource. The author's goal is to teach the art of finding the root of a single algebraic equation or a pair of such equations. This book is the first to describe the Chebyshev-proxy rootfinder, the most reliable way to find all zeros of a smooth function on an interval, and the spectrally enhanced Weyl bisection/marching triangles method for bivariate rootfinding. Unlike other books on numerical rootfinding, ... Read more
