Inhaltsangabe

Geometric integrators are time-stepping methods, designed to exactly satisfy properties inherent in a system of differential equations. Beginning from basic principles of geometric integration and a discussion of the advantageous properties of such schemes, the book introduces a variety of methods and applications. Includes examples and exercises.

Über diesen Titel

Críticas

'... this new book on geometric integration of Hamiltonian systems is a valuable addition to the subject that may be very useful not only as a textbook for courses in computational dynamics but also for researchers in the design of effective integrators in molecular dynamics and other areas of applied mathematics because it includes most of the recent research in the subject.' Zentralblatt MATH

'I highly recommend it for a graduate course on multivariate approximation theory, computer-aided geometric design, and meshless methods for partial differential equations.' Numerical Algorithms
