This volume brings together ideas from several areas of mathematics that have traditionally been rather disparate. The conference at The Fields Institute which gave rise to these proceedings was intended to encourage such connections. One of the key interactions occurs between dynamical systems and algorithms, one example being the by now classic observation that the QR algorithm for diagonalizing matrices may be viewed as the time-1 map of the Toda lattice flow.Another link occurs with interior point methods for linear programming, where certain smooth flows associated with such programming p

"Is there a sharp dividing line separating Europe into East" and "West"? This volume brings together prominent scholars from the United States, France, Poland, and Russia to examine the evolution of the conception of Europe over the two centuries since the French Revolution. Inspired by the ideas of Martin Malia, Evtuhov and Kotkin take a flexible view of the "cultural gradient" of ideas throughout Europe, examining the emergence, interaction, and reception of ideas in different places. The essays address three dimensions of the "cultural gradient:" the history of ideas, regimes, and political

The conjugate gradient method is a powerful tool for the iterative solution of self-adjoint operator equations in Hilbert space.This volume summarizes and extends the developments of the past decade concerning the applicability of the conjugate gradient method (and some of its variants) to ill posed problems and their regularization. Such problems occur in applications from almost all natural and technical sciences, including astronomical and geophysical imaging, signal analysis, computerized tomography, inverse heat transfer problems, and many moreThis Research Note presents a unifying analys

This volume considers aspects of the theory of polymers applied in optics. The main factors affecting the light loss in polymeric wave beam guides (PG) are discussed, and the mechanism of light loss in PG is analyzed. Polymers applied in fibre optics are classified with reference to methods of fabrication and purification of the materials. Technological aspects of material fabrication are considered, together with kinetic aspects of polymerization. Updated information on polymerization kinetics of MMA and styrene, and copolymerization of these monomers with each other is reported. Other topics

"No present book comes near this one in the range and depth of treatment of these two extremely important methodsthe Lanczos algorithm and the method of conjugate gradients." Chris Paige, School of Computer Science, McGill University. The Lanczos and conjugate gradient (CG) algorithms are fascinating numerical algorithms. This book presents the most comprehensive discussion to date of the use of these methods for computing eigenvalues and solving linear systems in both exact and floating point arithmetic. The author synthesizes the research done over the past 30 years, describing and
