| description | In Interval Analysis addition of intervals is the usual Minkowski addition of sets. The fact that the additive inverse generally does not exist has been a major obstacle in applications, e.g. constructing narrow enclosures of a solution, and possibly one of the most important mathematical challenges associated with the development of the theory of spaces of intervals. The work on this issue during the last 50-60 years lead to new operations for intervals, extended concepts of interval, setting the interval theory within the realm of algebraic structures more general than group and linear space. This theoretical development was paralleled by development of interval computer arithmetic. Svetoslav Markov was strongly involved in this major development in modern mathematics and he in fact introduced many of the main concepts and theories associated with it. |
