Complex Interval Arithmetic and Its Applications

Download or read book Complex Interval Arithmetic and Its Applications written by Miodrag Petković and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 1998 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this book is to present formulas and methods developed using complex interval arithmetic. While most of numerical methods described in the literature deal with real intervals and real vectors, there is no systematic study of methods in complex interval arithmetic. The book fills this gap. Several main subjects are considered: outer estimates for the range of complex functions, especially complex centered forms, the best approximations of elementary complex functions by disks, iterative methods for the inclusion by polynomial zeros including their implementation on parallel computers, the analysis of numerical stability of iterative methods by using complex interval arithmetic and numerical computation of curvilinear integrals with error bounds. Mainly new methods are presented developed over the last years, including a lot of very recent results by the authors some of which have not been published before.
