For a linear ordinary differential equation the Lie algebra of its infinitesimal Lie symmetries is compared with its differential Galois group. For this purpose an algebraic formul...
Abstract. Solutions of the optimal control and H-control problems for nonlinear affine systems can be found by solving Hamilton-Jacobi equations. However, these first order nonline...
We consider finite element operators defined on "rough" functions in a bounded polyhedron in RN . Insisting on preserving positivity in the approximations, we discover a...
We explain how one can dispense with the numerical computation of approximations to the transcendental integral functions involved when computing class numbers of quadratic number ...
ABSTRACT. The aim of this paper is to provide a convergence analysis for a preconditioned subspace iteration, which is designated to determine a modest number of the smallest eigen...
We consider a family of tensor product finite element methods for hyperbolic equations in RN , N 2, which are explicit and generate a continuous approximate solution. The base cas...
Directional Newton methods for functions f of n variables are shown to converge, under standard assumptions, to a solution of f(x) = 0. The rate of convergence is quadratic, for ne...
This paper presents the limit laws of discrepancies defined via exponential sums, and algorithms (with error bounds) to approximate the corresponding distribution functions. The re...
This paper proposes a new Newton-like method which defines new iterates using a linear system with the same coefficient matrix in each iterate, while the correction is performed on...
