Most-cited papers in Acta Numerica

The immersed boundary method

Charles S. Peskin · 1 Jan 2002

This paper is concerned with the mathematical structure of the immersed boundary (IB) method, which is intended for the computer simulation of fluid–structure interaction, especially in biological fluid dynamics. The IB formulation of such problems, derived here from the principle of least action, involves both Eulerian and Lagrangian variables, linked by the Dirac delta function.…

Numerical solution of saddle point problems

Michele Benzi, Gene H. Golub, Jörg Liesen · 19 Apr 2005

Large linear systems of saddle point type arise in a wide variety of applications throughout computational science and engineering. Due to their indefiniteness and often poor spectral properties, such linear systems represent a significant challenge for solver developers. In recent years there has been a surge of interest in saddle point problems, and numerous solution…

Inverse problems: A Bayesian perspective

Andrew M. Stuart · 1 May 2010

The subject of inverse problems in differential equations is of enormous practical importance, and has also generated substantial mathematical and computational innovation. Typically some form of regularization is required to ameliorate ill-posed behaviour. In this article we review the Bayesian approach to regularization, developing a function space viewpoint on the subject. This approach allows for…

Sequential Quadratic Programming

Paul T. Boggs, Jon W. Tolle · 1 Jan 1995

Since its popularization in the late 1970s, Sequential Quadratic Programming (SQP) has arguably become the most successful method for solving nonlinearly constrained optimization problems. As with most optimization methods, SQP is not a single algorithm, but rather a conceptual method from which numerous specific algorithms have evolved. Backed by a solid theoretical and computational foundation,…

Monte Carlo and quasi-Monte Carlo methods

Russel E. Caflisch · 1 Jan 1998

Monte Carlo is one of the most versatile and widely used numerical methods. Its convergence rate, O ( N −1/2 ), is independent of dimension, which shows Monte Carlo to be very robust but also slow. This article presents an introduction to Monte Carlo methods for integration problems, including convergence theory, sampling methods and variance…

Acta Numerica template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Acta Numerica format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Acta Numerica template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official Cambridge University Press format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Acta Numerica use?
Acta Numerica uses Numbered references, shown as numbered [1], [2] markers in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: [1] A. Smith, B. Jones, and C. Lee, A representative article title, Acta Numerica 12 (2023) 45–58.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to Acta Numerica?
No. DocuGuru generates the null LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a Cambridge University Press-ready Acta Numerica document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the Acta Numerica template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the Acta Numerica format with correct headings, figures, tables, and numbered citations.
Who publishes Acta Numerica?
Acta Numerica is a multidisciplinary journal published by Cambridge University Press. DocuGuru's Acta Numerica template matches Cambridge University Press's official submission format.
Can I export a submission-ready Acta Numerica PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official Acta Numerica template (the null class) that is ready to submit to Cambridge University Press, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the Acta Numerica template cost?
You can start writing in the Acta Numerica template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready Acta Numerica PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
