Overview
- Surveys both analytical and numerical aspects of hyperbolic balance laws (including the recent theory of viscosity solutions for systems)
- Numerous derivations of both well-balanced and asymptotic-preserving schemes emphasizing relations between each other Includes original material about K-multibranch solutions for linear geometric optics or order-preserving strings
- Several chapters about numerical approximation of chemotaxis or semiconductor kinetic models which display constant macroscopic fluxes at stationary state ("qualitatively correct" approximations)
- Presents well-balanced techniques for linearized Boltzmann and Fokker-Planck kinetic equations
- Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras

Reviews
From the reviews:
“The overall goal of the book is therefore to explain how to derive accurate numerical approximations of solutions to balance laws. … Each chapter includes comments and historical notes, as well as a list of references. … should be of interest to researchers willing to learn well-balanced techniques.” (Jean-François Coulombel, Mathematical Reviews, January, 2014)
“This book under review gives a systematized and impressive account of the research of the author … written in a well understandable English with some Romanic flavour and featured by a large amount of physical details in this mathematical text, and of pictures showing computing results, often in colours. … a book interesting for mathematical researchers in partial differential equations and for physicist, bringing a wealth of fresh ideas and methods much improving the time splitting approach.” (Gisbert Stoyan, zbMATH, Vol. 1272, 2013)Authors and Affiliations
