This two volume work presents research workers and graduate students in numerical analysis with a state-of-the-art survey of some of the most active areas of numerical analysis. The work arises from a Summer School covering recent trends in the subject. The chapters are written by the main lecturers at the School each of whom are internationally renowned experts in their respective fields. This extensive coverage of the major areas of research will be invaluable for both theoreticians and practitioners. This volume covers research in the numerical analysis of nonlinear phenomena: evolution equations, free boundary problems, spectral methods, and numerical methods for dynamical systems, nonlinear stability, and differential equations on manifolds.
