From Combinatorics to Dynamical Systems: Journees De Calcul Formel, Strasbourg, March 22-23, 2002 (IRMA Lectures in Mathematics & Theoretical Physics) - Tapa blanda

This book contains nine refereed research papers in various areas, from combinatorics to dynamical systems, with computer algebra as an underlying and unifying theme. Topics covered are irregular connections, summability of solutions and rank reduction of differential systems, asymptotic behaviour of divergent series, integrability of Hamiltonian systems, multiple zeta values, quasi polynomial formalism, Pade approximants related to analytic integrability, hybrid systems. The volume as a whole gives a presentation of productive interactions between ideas stemming from computer algebra and questions arising in dynamical systems or combinatorics. As such, it should be useful for both mathematicians and theoretical physicists who are interested in effective computation.
