摘要

I remember my first numerical experiments using computers and the shout of joy after lots of attempts: "it works". But disappointment came soon enough due to the inconsistency and lack of understanding of the numerical results. The first reaction was to believe that the computer code contains errors. But with time, coding errors disappear while numerical instabilities remain. Only theoretical conditions allow us to understand the mechanism of numerical errors. It was the book of Gastinel [5] that introduced me to the notion of condition. The terminology of condition number or conditioning is also used without distinction. Then, I understood that the computer was not the only one responsible for errors but the problem itself could contain the seeds of numerical disasters. The number of papers with condition number in the title is very huge and, it is very surprising that this book published in 2013 is the first book devoted entirely on this subject. It must be said that this book is a full success since it realizes a synthesis of ideas and works on the mathematical foundations on conditioning. First of all, I will say that I enjoyed the general spirit of the book explaining the points of view from which are discussed various aspects of condition. By the way, I will explain how Smale's 17th problem has stimulated research in this area and strengthened connections between algebraic geometry, integral geometry, probability and numerical analysis.
