Course Objectives This graduate level course is designed to give math students the expertise necessary to understand, construct and use computational methods for the numerical solution of certain problems such as root finding, interpolation, approximation and integration. The emphasis is on numerical methods for solving nonlinear equations and systems, interpolation and approximation, numerical differentiation and integration as well as the error analysis and the criteria for choosing the best algorithm for the problem under consideration.
Course Learning Outcomes The students who succeeded in this course;
  • Understand the theoretical and practical aspects of the construction and implementation of the numerical methods
  • Establish the advantages, disadvantages and limitations of the numerical methods and select the algorithms that converge to solutions in the most effective way
  • Construct and apply iterative methods for the approximate solution of nonlinear equations and systems.
  • Choose a numerical integration or differentiation method suitable for the problem under consideration and write an interpolation polynomial whenever necessary.
  • Analyze the error and establish the conditions for convergence related to these methods
  • Implement the methods and/or algorithms as computer code and use them to solve applied problems
  • Discuss the numerical methods and/or algorithms with respect to stability, applicability, reliability, conditioning, accuracy, computational complexity and efficiency
Course Content Iterative methods for nonlinear equations and nonlinear systems, interpolation and approximation: polynomial trigonometric, spline interpolation; least squares and minimax approximations; numerical differentiation and integration: Newton-Cotes, Gauss, Romberg methods, extrapolation, error analysis.
