Trends in Approximation Theory (Innovations in Applied Mathematics)

These volumes contain carefully edited selections of papers that were presented at the Symposium on Trends in Approximation Theory, held in May 2000, and at the Oslo Conference on Mathematical Methods for Curves and Surfaces, held in July 2000. Both contain several invited surveys written by leading experts in the field, along with contributed research papers on the most current developments in approximation theory and in the theory and application of curves and surfaces. These books will be of great interest to mathematicians, engineers, and computer scientists.
