Abstract

Abstract This is a review of the main results in computational mathematics that were obtained by the eminent Russian mathematician Alexander Andreevich Samarskii (February 19, 1919 – February 11, 2008). His outstanding research output addresses all the main questions that arise in the construction and justification of algorithms for the numerical solution of problems from mathematical physics. The remarkable works of A.A. Samarskii include statements of the main principles re- quired in the construction of difference schemes, rigorous mathematical proofs of the stability and convergence of these schemes, and also investigations of their algorith- mic implementation. A.A. Samarskii and his collaborators constructed and applied in practical calculations a large number of algorithms for solving various problems from mathematical physics, including thermal physics, gas dynamics, magnetic gas dynam- ics, plasma physics, ecology and other important models from the natural sciences.
