About this book :-
This book focuses on methods for solving large systems of linear equations where most elements are zero. These "sparse" systems are common in fields like engineering, physics, and computer science. The book introduces techniques for breaking down these systems into simpler parts, making them easier to solve. It covers both exact and approximate methods, helping readers understand how to efficiently handle large, sparse problems. This monograph is aimed at students of applied mathematics and scientific computing, as well as computational scientists and software developers interested in understanding the theory and algorithms needed to tackle sparse systems.
