Prerequisites for using the text are calculus, linear al­ gebra, elements of functional analysis, and the fundamentals of differential equations. Students with some knowledge of the principles of numerical analysis and optimization will have an advantage, since the general schemes and concepts can be easily followed if particular methods, special cases, are already known. However, such knowledge is not essential in under­ standing the material of this book. A large number of problems in applied mathematics and also in en­ gineering are solved by finding the solutions of certain equations. For example, d)mamic systems are mathematically modeled by difference or differential equations, and their solutions usually represent the states of the systems. For the sake of simplicity, assume that a time-invariant system is driven by the equation x = f(x), where x is the state. Then the equilibrium states are determined by solving the equation f(x) = 0. Similar equations are used in the case of discrete systems. The urrknowns of engineering equations can be functions (difference, differential, and integral equations), vectors (systems of linear or nonlinear algebraic equations), or real or com­ plex numbers (single algebraic equations with single unknowns). Except in special cases, the most commonly used solution methods are iterative — when starting from one or several initial approximations a sequence is constructed that converges to a solution of the equation. Iteration methods are also applied for solving optimization problems. In such cases, the it­ eration sequences converge to an optimal solution of the problem at hand. Since all of these methods have the same recursive structure, they can be introduced and discussed in a general framework. In recent years, the study of general iteration schemes has included a substantial effort to identify properties of iteration schemes that will guar­ antee their convergence in some sense. A number of these results have used an abstract iteration scheme that consists of the recursive application of a point-to-set mapping. In this book, we are concerned with these types of results. Each chapter contains several new theoretical results and important applications in engineering, in dynamic economic systems, in input-output systems, in the solution of nonlhiear and linecu- differential equations, and in optimization problems. Chapter 1 gives an outline of general iteration schemes in which the convergence of such schemes is examined. We also show that oiu: condi­ tions are very general: most classical results can be obtained as special cases and, if the conditions are weakened slightly, then our results may not hold. In Chapter 2 the discrete time-scale Liapunov theory is extended to time dependent, higher order, nonlinear difference equations. In addition, the speed of convergence is estimated in most cases. The monotone conver­ gence to the solution is examined in Chapter 3 and comparison theorems are proven in Chapter 4. It is also shown that our results generalize well- known classical theorems such as the contraction mapping principle, the lemma of Kantorovich, the famous Gronwall lemma, and the well-known stability theorem of Uzawa. Chapter 5 examines conditions for the con­ vergence of special single-step methods such as Newton's method, mod­ ified Newton's method, and Newton-like methods generated by point-to- point mappings in a Banach space setting. The speed of convergence of such methods is examined using the theory of majorants and a method called "continuous induction", which builds on a special variant of Ban­ ach's closed graph theorem. Finally, Chapter 6 examines conditions for monotone convergence of special single-step methods such as Newton's method, Newton-like methods, and secant methods generated by point- to-point mappings in a partially ordered space setting. At the end of each chapter, case studies and numerical examples are presented from different fields of engineering and economy. Authors loannis K.
