This book provides a basic, initial resource, introducing science and engineering students to the field of optimization. It covers three main areas: mathematical programming, calculus of variations and optimal control, highlighting the ideas and concepts and offering insights into the importance of optimality conditions in each area.
Questo testo, che giunge ora alla quarta edizione, e stato concepito principalmente per le necessita delle Scuole di Ingegneria, dove la Meccanica Razionale ha il duplice ruolo di introdurre sia alla modellizzazione fisico-matematica rigorosa che a specifiche applicazioni sviluppate poi in altri insegnamenti. La trattazione che qui proponiamo vuole presentare i concetti fondamentali mantenendo sempre l'attenzione rivolta alle applicazioni, a volte comuni ad altre discipline, in vista di sinergie didattiche favorite dalla presenza di corsi integrati. Abbiamo cercato di dare al libro una impostazione il piu possibile coerente con questa finalita, soprattutto in alcune sezioni tradizionalmente caratterizzate da una trattazione piu astratta: dai vincoli al Principio dei lavori virtuali, dal Principio di d'Alembert alla Meccanica Analitica.Abbiamo comunque mantenuto la tradizionale e, a nostro parere, irrinunciabile struttura ipotetico-deduttiva nello svolgimento delle argomentazioni, che fa ancora della Meccanica Razionale un disciplina formalmente rigorosa. Sono percio presenti dimostrazioni anche complesse, sia pure sempre motivate alla luce del contesto applicativo nel quale si vanno a collocare.Questa edizione e frutto di un ampio lavoro di riorganizzazione e rielaborazione rispetto alla precedente e contiene, oltre a numerosi nuovi esempi, miglioramenti nella presentazione dei concetti principali e nello svolgimento delle dimostrazioni, per renderle didatticamente piu efficaci.
This book, intended as a practical working guide for calculus students, includes 450 exercises.
This book is an introduction to mathematical biology for students with no experience in biology, but who have some mathematical background.
This book is designed as an advanced undergraduate or a first-year graduate course for students from various disciplines like applied mathematics, physics, engineering.
This book addresses the relationship between algebraic formulas and geometric images. In spite of the simplicity and importance of this problem, it remains unsolved to this day although, as the book shows, many remarkable results have been discovered.
Groups are a means of classification, via the group action on a set, but also the object of a classification. Hoelder's program for attacking this problem in the case of finite groups is a sort of leitmotiv throughout the text. The last two chapters deal with the representation theory of finite group and the cohomology theory of groups;
This book deals with several topics in algebra useful for computer science applications and the symbolic treatment of algebraic problems, pointing out and discussing their algorithmic nature.
This short book, geared towards undergraduate students of computer science and mathematics, is specifically designed for a first course in mathematical logic.
The book represents a basic support for a master course in electromagnetism oriented to numerical simulation.
Then, after a self-contained presentation of degree theory for continuous self-maps of the circumference, we study the global theory of plane curves, introducing winding and rotation numbers, and proving the Jordan curve theorem for curves of class C2, and Hopf theorem on the rotation number of closed simple curves.
In this book we describe the magic world of mathematical models: starting from real-life problems, we formulate them in terms of equations, transform equations into algorithms and algorithms into programs to be executed on computers.A broad variety of examples and exercises illustrate that properly designed models can, e.g.: predict the way the number of dolphins in the Aeolian Sea will change as food availability and fishing activity vary; describe the blood flow in a capillary network; calculate the PageRank of websites.This book also includes a chapter with an elementary introduction to Octave, an open-source programming language widely used in the scientific community. Octave functions and scripts for dealing with the problems presented in the text can be downloaded from https://paola-gervasio.unibs.it/quarteroni-gervasioThis book is addressed to any student interested in learning how to construct and apply mathematical models.
This primer covers a remarkably wide range of topics in discrete calculus, from combinatorics to recurrence relations. With examples and exercises throughout, the text's clarity and rigor are informed by extensive teaching experience and academic discussion.
This book provides a basic introduction to reduced basis (RB) methods for problems involving the repeated solution of partial differential equations (PDEs) arising from engineering and applied sciences, such as PDEs depending on several parameters and PDE-constrained optimization.
The book collects over 120 exercises on different subjects of Mathematical Finance, including Option Pricing, Risk Theory, and Interest Rate Models.
The purpose of the volume is to provide a support textbook for a second lecture course on Mathematical Analysis. This new edition features additional material with the aim of matching the widest range of educational choices for a second course of Mathematical Analysis.
This textbook will present, in a rigorous way, the basic theory of the discrete-time and the continuous-time Markov chains, along with many examples and solved problems. This textbook is intended for a basic course on stochastic processes at an advanced undergraduate level and the background needed will be a first course in probability theory.
As a limit theory of quantum mechanics, classical dynamics comprises a large variety of phenomena, from computable (integrable) to chaotic (mixing) behavior.
Stats for social sciences is frequently the subject of textbooks, while maths for social sciences is often neglected: monographs on specific themes (like, for instance, social choice systems or game theory applications) are available, but they do not adequately cover the topic in general.
Questo testo e espressamente concepito per i corsi brevi del nuovo ordinamento delle Facolta di Ingegneria e di Scienze. Esso affronta tutti gli argomenti tipici della Matematica Numerica, spaziando dal problema di approssimare una funzione, al calcolo dei suoi zeri, delle sue derivate e del suo integrale definito fino alla risoluzione approssimata di equazioni differenziali ordinarie e di problemi ai limiti. Due capitoli sono inoltre dedicati alla risoluzione di sistemi lineari ed al calcolo degli autovalori di una matrice, mentre un capitolo iniziale conduce lo studente ad un rapido ripasso degli argomenti dell'Analisi Matematica di uso frequente nel volume e ad una introduzione al linguaggio Matlab. I vari argomenti sono volutamente affrontati a livello elementare ed i paragrafi che richiedono maggior impegno sono stati opportunamente contrassegnati. In questa quarta edizione il linguaggio Octave (di distribuzione gratuita) si affianca a MATLAB.
Accordingly, this textbook is not meant to cover the whole range of this high-performance technical programming environment, but to motivate first- and second-year undergraduate students in mathematics and computer science to learn Matlab by studying representative problems, developing algorithms and programming them in Matlab.
The second edition has been revised to correct minor errata, and features a number of carefully selected new exercises, together with more detailed explanations of some of the topics. A complete Solutions Manual, containing solutions to all the exercises published in the book, is available.
This is an introductory textbook on general and algebraic topology, aimed at anyone with a basic knowledge of calculus and linear algebra. complete metric spaces and function spaces; It is suitable for anyone needing a basic, comprehensive introduction to general and algebraic topology and its applications.
This textbook presents problems and exercises at various levels of difficulty in the following areas: Classical Methods in PDEs (diffusion, waves, transport, potential equations); Variational Formulation of Elliptic Problems; and Weak Formulation for Parabolic Problems and for the Wave Equation.
