E-Book Overview
Mathematica, Maple, and similar software packages provide programs that carry out sophisticated mathematical operations. Applying the ideas introduced in Computer Algebra and Symbolic Computation: Elementary Algorithms, this book explores the application of algorithms to such methods as automatic simplification, polynomial decomposition, and polynomial factorization.
It is well-suited for self-study and can be used as the basis for a graduate course.
E-Book Content
Cohen Computer Algebra and Symbolic Computation Mathematical Methods Mathematica™, Maple™, and similar software packages provide programs that carry out sophisticated mathematical operations. In this book the author explores the mathematical methods that form the basis for such programs, in particular the application of algorithms to methods such as automatic simplification, polynomial decomposition, and polynomial factorization. Computer Algebra and Symbolic Computation: Mathematical Methods goes beyond the basics of computer algebra—presented in Computer Algebra and Symbolic Computation: Elementary Algorithms—to explore complexity analysis of algorithms and recent developments in the field. This text: For the student, Mathematical Methods is an essential companion to Elementary Algorithms, illustrating applications of basic ideas. For the professional, Mathematical Methods is a look at new applications of familiar concepts.
