Descrizione del libro

Describes numerical continuation methods that have provided important contributions toward the numerical solution of nonlinear systems of equations for many years. These methods may be used not only to compute solutions, which might otherwise be hard to obtain, but also to gain insight into qualitative properties of the solutions.
