That's interesting. Are there any books in particular you can recommend?
- vmilner 6y agoI was recommended J.D. Murray "Asymptotic Analysis" when I was having trouble understanding a particular technique (method of steepest descents), and it definitely had clearer explanations than other texts. https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-1-4612-1122-8 https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-1-4612-1122-8
- jeffreyrogers 6y agoThanks, this looks a little more accessible than other texts, I'll try to find a copy of it.
- BeetleB 6y agoI haven't read any, but some the professor recommended: Asymptotic Methods in Analysis by de Bruijn Concrete Mathematics by Knuth, et al. He said the latter is a bit elementary, and the former is fairly advanced. Searching for '"asymptotic methods" course' on Google will hopefully get you some free lecture notes.
- jeffreyrogers 6y agoThanks! I actually own Concrete Mathematics, but have not worked through it yet. I'll check out the other book too.
