Summary: The project is a link between mathematical theory and its practical applications. Research is based on applied mathematics and professional computer programming. Efficiency of new algorithms and methods is tested, and software developed so as to be applied in problems of natural and engineering sciences. Project is concerned with numerical problems in wider area of numerical analysis, but is also familiar with results of numerical linear algebra. It is a part of modern computer science, and thus it makes way towards efficient solutions of more complicated problems of modern science. The important part of this project is to educate new researchers and proliferate their interest since there is a great deficiency of mathematicians in this field. An emphasis is given to interpretation of computational results through non-mathematical sciences.

Keywords: Approximation, Parallel algorithms, Stability, Complexity, Interpolation, Collocation, Spline, Chebyshev, Differential equations, Initial problems, Boundary value problems, Eigenvalues, Eigenfunctions.

Research goals: Construction and development of efficient numerical methods suitable for fast and stable computational algorithms to be implemented on digital computers in generation of accurate approximations. Application on numerical problems of exact fundamental and applied sciences. Results in form of modification of existing methods, and finding out new methods for approximation in order to achieve greater accuracy and uniformity of approximations, as well as theoretical analysis and error estimation.
