Multidimensional minimizing splines : theory and applications

This book is of interest to mathematicians, geologists, engineers and, in general, researchers and post graduate students involved in spline function theory, surface fitting problems or variational methods. From reviews: The book is well organized, and the English is very good. I recommend the book to researchers in approximation theory, and to anyone interested in bivariate data fitting." (L.L. Schumaker, Mathematical Reviews, 2005). Audience: This book would be of interest to mathematicians, geologists, engineers and, in general, researchers and post graduate students involved in spline function theory, surface fitting problems or variational methods "This book is meant for mathematicians, geologists, engineers and, in general, researchers and postgraduate students involved in spline function theory, surface fitting problems or variational methods."--BOOK JACKET.
