The ADI Model Problem presents the theoretical foundations of Alternating Direction Implicit (ADI) iteration for systems with both real and complex spectra and extends early work for real spectra into the complex plane with methods for computing optimum iteration parameters for both one and two variable problems. This book provides application of theory to the solution of boundary value problems and description of stable similarity reduction of a full matrix to low-band upper Hessenberg form, with application to computation of eigenvalues and solution of Lyapunov and Sylvester...

This three-part volume explores theory for construction of rational interpolation functions for continuous patchwork approximation. Authored bythe namesake of the Wachspress Coordinates, the bookdevelops construction of basis functions for a broad class of elements which have widespread graphics and finite element application. Part one is the 1975 book A Rational Finite Element Basis (with minor updates and corrections) written by Dr. Wachspress.Part two describes theoretical advances since 1975 and includes analysis of elements not considered previously.Part three consists of annotated...
