Description

Book Synopsis
This expansive volume describes the history of numerical methods proposed to solve linear algebra problems,, from antiquity to the present day. The authors focus on methods for solving linear systems of equations and eigenvalue problems and describe the interplay between numerical methods and the computing tools available at the time. The second part of the book consists of 78 biographies of the main important contributors to the field.

A Journey through the History of Numerical Linear Algebra will be of special interest to applied mathematicians, especially researchers in numerical linear algebra, and to applied mathematiciansas well as to and historians of mathematics as well.
