This text and reference provides an overview of the fundamental theories, numerical methods, and iterative processes encountered in difference calculus and explores classical problems such as orthogonal polynomials, the Euclidean algorithm, roots of polynomials, and well- conditioning, presenting practical applications in fields such as economics, chemistry, population dynamics, and queueing theory. Some important features of the book include development of the theory of different inequalities and the various comparison results, unified treatment of stability theory through Liapunov functions and the comparison method, and emphasis on the role of the theory of difference equations in numerical analysis. Lakshmikantham is professor and chair of the Department of Mathematical Science at the Florida Institute of Technology. Trigiante teaches mathematics in the Department of Energetics at the University of Florence, Italy. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
