A collocation method for approximating integrals of rapidly oscillatory functions is presented.
The method is efficient for integrals involving Bessel functions J v (rx) with large oscillation …

A general method for near-best approximations to functionals on $\mathbb {R}^ d $, using
scattered-data information is discussed. The method is actually the moving least-squares …

Smooth interpolation of unstructured surface data is usually achieved by joining local patches,
where each patch is an approximation (usually parametric) defined on a local reference …

Three of the recidivism measures rearrest, reconviction, resentence to prison are based
exclusively on official criminal records kept in State and FBI criminal history repositories. One …

A 4-point interpolatory subdivision scheme with a tension parameter is analysed. It is shown
that for a certain range of the tension parameter the resulting curve is C 1 . The role of the …

This book is an introduction to the modern theory of Markov chains, whose goal is to determine
the rate of convergence to the stationary distribution, as a function of state space size and …

Development of sustainable energy systems based on renewable biomass feedstocks is now
a global effort. Lignocellulosic biomass contains polymers of cellulose, hemicellulose, and …

Hydrogen may be produced by a number of processes, including electrolysis of water,
thermocatalytic reformation of hydrogen-rich organic compounds, and biological processes. …

A systematic search is made for all renormalizable theories of heavy vector bosons. It is argued
that in any renormalizable Lagrangian theory high-energy unitarity bounds should not be …

The yeast cell wall is a highly dynamic structure that is responsible for protecting the cell
from rapid changes in external osmotic potential. The wall is also critical for cell expansion …
