Download or read book A Concise Introduction to Linear Algebra written by Géza Schay and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-03-30 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Building on the author's previous edition on the subject (Introduction to Linear Algebra, Jones & Bartlett, 1996), this book offers a refreshingly concise text suitable for a standard course in linear algebra, presenting a carefully selected array of essential topics that can be thoroughly covered in a single semester. Although the exposition generally falls in line with the material recommended by the Linear Algebra Curriculum Study Group, it notably deviates in providing an early emphasis on the geometric foundations of linear algebra. This gives students a more intuitive understanding of the subject and enables an easier grasp of more abstract concepts covered later in the course. The focus throughout is rooted in the mathematical fundamentals, but the text also investigates a number of interesting applications, including a section on computer graphics, a chapter on numerical methods, and many exercises and examples using MATLAB. Meanwhile, many visuals and problems (a complete solutions manual is available to instructors) are included to enhance and reinforce understanding throughout the book. Brief yet precise and rigorous, this work is an ideal choice for a one-semester course in linear algebra targeted primarily at math or physics majors. It is a valuable tool for any professor who teaches the subject.
Download or read book Wavelets written by Amir-Homayoon Najmi and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2012-04-15 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduced nearly three decades ago as a variable resolution alternative to the Fourier transform, a wavelet is a short oscillatory waveform for analysis of transients. The discrete wavelet transform has remarkable multi-resolution and energy-compaction properties. Amir-Homayoon Najmi’s introduction to wavelet theory explains this mathematical concept clearly and succinctly. Wavelets are used in processing digital signals and imagery from myriad sources. They form the backbone of the JPEG2000 compression standard, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation uses biorthogonal wavelets to compress and store its vast database of fingerprints. Najmi provides the mathematics that demonstrate how wavelets work, describes how to construct them, and discusses their importance as a tool to investigate and process signals and imagery. He reviews key concepts such as frames, localizing transforms, orthogonal and biorthogonal bases, and multi-resolution. His examples include the Haar, the Shannon, and the Daubechies families of orthogonal and biorthogonal wavelets. Our capacity and need for collecting and transmitting digital data is increasing at an astonishing rate. So too is the importance of wavelets to anyone working with and analyzing digital data. Najmi’s primer will be an indispensable resource for those in computer science, the physical sciences, applied mathematics, and engineering who wish to obtain an in-depth understanding and working knowledge of this fascinating and evolving field.

Download or read book Algebra 1 Workbook for Dummies written by Richard S Hammond and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-04-06 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After becoming a math teacher and math author, I notice that most students lack the basic skills in Math. This reason leads students to face many difficulties in learning Math not only in high school but also university. To help students in mastering their basic Math skills, we have worked through a workbook series called Algebra 1 Workbook for Dummies Series. This book series is designed to help students master their basics skill in Algebra 1. Algebra 1 Workbook for Dummies: Quadratic Equations serves as a concise guide in quadratic equations. This book is written in detail about quadratic equations. We begin the first chapter of this book with the definition of quadratic equations. In this part, we want to make sure that the readers comprehend well about the definition before going deep into how to solve quadratic equations. In the second chapter of this book, we listed many possible ways on how to solve a quadratic equation such as Factoring Method Completing Square Method Using Discriminant to Solve a Quadratic Equation Solve a Quadratic Equation in Case a+b+c=0 or a+c=b Moreover, to dive into the higher level of Math, we also include the most famous theorem that is related to the sum and the product of the roots of equations. This theorem is known as Vieta's theorem. We decide to include this part in the third chapter of this book to help readers get more interests in quadratic equations. The last chapter of this book is about the application of quadratic equations like how to solve a system of equations or a biquadratic equation by using a quadratic equation. We hope this book serves as the best resource in learning Algebra 1, especially, quadratic equations. Richard S.Hammond

Download or read book Concise Guide to Numerical Algorithmics written by John Lawrence Nazareth and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-01-02 with total page 79 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Numerical Algorithmic Science and Engineering (NAS&E), or more compactly, Numerical Algorithmics, is the theoretical and empirical study and the practical implementation and application of algorithms for solving finite-dimensional problems of a numeric nature. The variables of such problems are either discrete-valued, or continuous over the reals, or, and as is often the case, a combination of the two, and they may or may not have an underlying network/graph structure. This re-emerging discipline of numerical algorithmics within computer science is the counterpart of the now well-established discipline of numerical analysis within mathematics, where the latter’s emphasis is on infinite-dimensional, continuous numerical problems and their finite-dimensional, continuous approximates. A discussion of the underlying rationale for numerical algorithmics, its foundational models of computation, its organizational details, and its role, in conjunction with numerical analysis, in support of the modern modus operandi of scientific computing, or computational science & engineering, is the primary focus of this short monograph. It comprises six chapters, each with its own bibliography. Chapters 2, 3 and 6 present the book’s primary content. Chapters 1, 4, and 5 are briefer, and they provide contextual material for the three primary chapters and smooth the transition between them. Mathematical formalism has been kept to a minimum, and, whenever possible, visual and verbal forms of presentation are employed and the discussion enlivened through the use of motivating quotations and illustrative examples. The reader is expected to have a working knowledge of the basics of computer science, an exposure to basic linear algebra and calculus (and perhaps some real analysis), and an understanding of elementary mathematical concepts such as convexity of sets and functions, networks and graphs, and so on. Although this book is not suitable for use as the principal textbook for a course on numerical algorithmics (NAS&E), it will be of value as a supplementary reference for a variety of courses. It can also serve as the primary text for a research seminar. And it can be recommended for self-study of the foundations and organization of NAS&E to graduate and advanced undergraduate students with sufficient mathematical maturity and a background in computing. When departments of computer science were first created within universities worldwide during the middle of the twentieth century, numerical analysis was an important part of the curriculum. Its role within the discipline of computer science has greatly diminished over time, if not vanished altogether, and specialists in that area are now to be found mainly within other fields, in particular, mathematics and the physical sciences. A central concern of this monograph is the regrettable, downward trajectory of numerical analysis within computer science and how it can be arrested and suitably reconstituted. Resorting to a biblical metaphor, numerical algorithmics (NAS&E) as envisioned herein is neither old wine in new bottles, nor new wine in old bottles, but rather this re-emerging discipline is a decantation of an age-old vintage that can hopefully find its proper place within the larger arena of computer science, and at what appears now to be an opportune time.
