Many numerical problems with input $x$ and output $y$ can be formulated as a system of equations $F(x, y) = 0$ where the goal is to solve for $y$. The condition number measures the change of $y$ for small perturbations to $x$. From this…

Let $X$ be a class of extended numerical functions on a domain $D$ of $d$-dimensional Euclidean space $\mathbb R^d$, $H\subset X$. Given $u,M\in X$, we write $u\prec_H M$ if there is a function $h\in H$ such that $u+h\leq M$ on $D$. We…
