Author Description

"This book is the first comprehensive treatment of the emerging area of numerical polynomial algebra, an area that falls between classical numerical analysis and classical computer algebra." "Graduate students or academic and industrial research scientists in numerical analysis and computer algebra can use Numerical Polynomial Algebra as a textbook or reference. The book is clearly written, and standard numerical linear algebra notation is used consistently throughout. Principles and their application are explained through numerical examples and exercises avoiding excessive technical detail. Numerous open-ended problems invite further investigation and research."--Jacket.
