The Courant-Friedrichs-Lewy (CFL) Condition

Thisvolume comprises a carefully selectedcollection ofarticlesemerging from and pertinent to the 2010 CFL-80 conference in Rio de Janeiro,celebrating the80th anniversary of the Courant-Friedrichs-Lewy (CFL) condition. A major result in the field of numerical analysis, the CFL condition has influenced the research of many important mathematicians over the past eight decades, and this work is meant to take stock of its most important and current applications.The CourantFriedrichsLewy (CFL) Condition: 80 Years After its Discovery will be of interest to practicing mathematicians, engineers, physicists, and graduate students who work with numerical methods.
