The problem of evaluating integrals is well known to every student who has had a year of calculus. It was an especially important subject in 19th century analysis and it has now been revived with the appearance of symbolic languages. In this book, the authors use the problem of exact evaluation of definite integrals as a starting point for exploring many areas of mathematics. The questions discussed in this book, first published in 2004, are as old as calculus itself. In presenting the combination of methods required for the evaluation of most integrals, the authors take the most interesting, rather than the shortest, path to the results. Along the way, they illuminate connections with many subjects, including analysis, number theory, algebra and combinatorics. This will be a guided tour of exciting discovery for undergraduates and their teachers in mathematics, computer science, physics, and engineering.

Ce Petit traité d’intégration développe une approche originale de l’intégrale. Cette approche, que l’on pourrait qualifier de globale, est due aux deux mathématiciens Jaroslaw Kurzweil et Ralph Henstock. L’enseignement de l’intégration se fait d’ordinaire en deux temps. On débute en proposant des approximations de l’aire située sous le graphe de la fonction sous la forme de sommes de Riemann, ce qui est bien adapté au calcul différentiel et intégral portant sur des fonctions régulières. On présente ensuite l’intégrale de Lebesgue en lien avec la théorie de la mesure. L’approche de Kurzweil et Henstock est proche de celle de Riemann, à cela près que le pas des subdivisions de l’intervalle pour le calcul de l’aire peut ne pas être constant. L’intérêt de cette méthode est de contenir la théorie de Lebesgue et d’être optimale pour le calcul différentiel. Ce livre concerne au premier chef les étudiants de mathématiques de tous les cycles (licence, master, préparation aux concours de l’enseignement…). Il intéressera également les enseignants de mathématiques ou de physique et, plus généralement, les ingénieurs et scientifiques qui font usage de la théorie de l’intégration.

Numerical methods that preserve properties of Hamiltonian systems, reversible systems, differential equations on manifolds and problems with highly oscillatory solutions are the subject of this book. A complete self-contained theory of symplectic and symmetric methods, which include Runge-Kutta, composition, splitting, multistep and various specially designed integrators, is presented and their construction and practical merits are discussed. The long-time behaviour of the numerical solutions is studied using a backward error analysis (modified equations) combined with KAM theory. The book is illustrated by many figures, it treats applications from physics and astronomy and contains many numerical experiments and comparisons of different approaches. The second edition is substantially revised and enlarged, with many improvements in the presentation and additions concerning in particular non-canonical Hamiltonian systems, highly oscillatory mechanical systems, and the dynamics of multistep methods.
