Subject: New Book, Introduction to Numerical Linear Algebra

Introduction to Numerical Linear Algebra
by Christoph Borgers

This textbook on numerical methods for linear algebra problems
presents detailed explanations that beginning students can read on
their own, allowing instructors to go beyond lecturing and making it
suitable for a 'flipped' classroom. The author covers several topics
not commonly addressed in related introductory books, including
diffusion, a toy model of computed tomography, global positioning
systems, the use of eigenvalues in analyzing stability of equilibria,
and multigrid methods. A detailed derivation and careful motivation of
the QR method for eigenvalues starting from power iteration is also
included, as is a discussion of the use of the SVD for grading.

Subject: New Book, Sparse Polynomial Approximation of High-Dimensional Functions

Sparse Polynomial Approximation of High-Dimensional Functions
by Ben Adcock, Simone Brugiapaglia, and Clayton G. Webster

For over seven decades there has been a focused research effort on
high- dimensional approximation -- that is, the development of methods
for approximating functions of many variables accurately and
efficiently from data. This book provides an in-depth treatment of
sparse polynomial approximation methods, which have emerged as useful
tools for various high-dimensional approximation tasks arising in a
range of applications in computational science and engineering. It is
the first comprehensive and unified treatment of polynomial
approximation techniques that can mitigate the curse of dimensionality
in high-dimensional approximation, including least squares and
compressed sensing. It develops main concepts in a mathematically
rigorous manner and contains many numerical examples, each accompanied
by downloadable code.

Data Assimilation (DA) is used to statistically blend observations and
numerical models.  It is an essential process in producing a skilful
weather forecast.  The Met Office is at the forefront of DA
applications in operational Numerical Weather Prediction.  Possibly
the greatest challenge for modern DA is to consider how the complex DA
algorithms could be run efficiently on future supercomputer
architectures.  Work in the DA team at the Met Office is highly
collaborative and the team has links to scientists and software
engineers in national and international organizations.

We are hiring scientists and software engineers for our DA team! Find
