Advances in Numerical Analysis Volume II: Wavelets, Subdivision Algorithms, and Radial Basis Functions

This volume presents state-of-the-art surveys of some of the most active areas of numerical analysis research. In particular, it covers wavelets from the point of view of spline theory, subdivision algorithms in geometric design, and the theory of radial basis function approximation. The contributors are well-known experts, and the chapters are based on a graduate-level lecture series so they should be accessible to all those working in related fields.
