Dieses handliche Lehrbuch stellt akzentuiert diejenigen Inhalte aus Analysis und Linearer Algebra sowie grundlegende mathematische Fähigkeiten und Fertigkeiten dar, die für ein Studium der Mathematik bereits in den ersten beiden Semestern unverzichtbar und für andere Mathematik-nahe Studiengänge in Umfang und Tiefe dennoch vertretbar und realistisch zu bewältigen sind.Dafür werden einige Themen, die in herkömmlichen, separaten Lehrveranstaltungszyklen zu Analysis und Linearer Algeb...

This monograph deals with theoretical aspects and numerical simulations of the interaction of electromagnetic fields with nonlinear materials. It focuses in particular on media with nonlinear polarization properties. It addresses the direct problem of nonlinear Electrodynamics, that is to understand the nonlinear behavior in the induced polarization and to analyze or even to control its impact on the propagation of electromagnetic fields in the matter.The book gives a comprehensive...

This graduate-level text provides an application oriented introduction to the numerical methods for elliptic and parabolic partial differential equations. It covers finite difference, finite element, and finite volume methods, interweaving theory and applications throughout. The book examines modern topics such as adaptive methods, multilevel methods, and methods for convection-dominated problems and includes detailed illustrations and extensive exercises. For students with mathematics maj...
