Asymptotic Expansions of Integrals

by Norman Bleistein, Richard A Handelsman
Asymptotic Expansions of Integrals
Asymptotic Expansions of Integrals

Clear path into powerful asymptotic techniques

If you enjoy mathematics that turns intimidating integrals into something structured and usable, this is a deeply rewarding read. It has the feel of a serious classic, but it teaches with unusual clarity, building from approachable ideas into methods like stationary phase and steepest descents. Readers who like books that work both as a course text and a long-term reference will probably keep coming back to it.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Condition guide

Book Condition Guide

Books in Like New Condition

This book may contain very minor cosmetic defects, but it is in pristine condition. There should be no yellowing, no foxing, no water damage, and no annotations of any kind on the cover and the pages. For paperbacks, there should not be any crease marks on the spine. This book is good as new — lucky you!

*Books may be missing bundle media (e.g. CD, e-book code), if included.

Books in Very Good Condition

This book has been used, but it is still in a clean condition. There should be no foxing or annotations of any kind on the inner pages, but a sparse amount may be present on the cover, title pages, or outside edges of the book. There should be no water damage of any kind. For paperbacks, there may be light crease marks on the spine.

*Books may be missing bundle media (e.g. CD, e-book code), if included.

Books in Good Condition

We do our best to ensure the quality of our books, but there is no escaping the wear and tear that comes with time. Slight foxing and some annotations may be present on the pages and the cover. There should be no water damage of any kind. For paperbacks, there may be several crease marks on the spine.

*Books may be missing bundle media (e.g. CD, e-book code), if included.

Books in Well Read Condition

This is a well-read book, which means that the previous owner probably really enjoyed it! The cover and pages may include moderate foxing and annotations, but the text is not obscured and still readable. Moderate cosmetic defects and minor water damage may be present on the edges of the book. For paperbacks, there may be multiple crease marks on the spine.

*Books may be missing bundle media (e.g. CD, e-book code), if included.

Description

An accessible introduction to asymptotic analysis focusing on the asymptotic expansion of integrals. The text presents the principles and methods used in applied mathematics, with nine chapters that begin with elementary material and end with numerous problems and exercises. Prerequisites are basic calculus, differential equations, and complex variables. Topics include integration by parts, Watson’s lemma, Laplace’s method, stationary phase, and steepest descents, as well as the Mellin transform method and additional aspects of steepest descent. Each chapter is illustrated with diagrams and tables. The work has been used as a classroom text and is provided in an inexpensive paperback edition. It serves as a reference for both students and researchers working with asymptotics.
