Burton Wendroff (born March 10, 1930) is an American applied mathematician known for his contributions to the development of numerical methods for the solution of hyperbolic partial differential equations. The Lax–Wendroff method for the solution of hyperbolic PDE is named for Wendroff (as well as for Peter Lax). Wendroff is an adjunct professor at the Department of Mathematics and Statistics, University of New Mexico. He is also a retired fellow and associate at the Los Alamos National Laboratory.

  • Burton Wendroff (born March 10, 1930) is an American applied mathematician known for his contributions to the development of numerical methods for the solution of hyperbolic partial differential equations. The Lax–Wendroff method for the solution of hyperbolic PDE is named for Wendroff (as well as for Peter Lax). Wendroff is an adjunct professor at the Department of Mathematics and Statistics, University of New Mexico. He is also a retired fellow and associate at the Los Alamos National Laboratory. Wendroff is a primary author of the chess program Lachex. Together with co-author Tony Warnock, Lachex competed at two World Computer Chess Championships at Cologne (1986) and Madrid (1992). (en)
  • Burton Wendroff (* 10. März 1930 in New York City) ist ein amerikanischer Mathematiker, der sich mit partiellen Differentialgleichungen, numerischer Analysis und angewandter Mathematik befasst. Wendroff studierte an der New York University mit dem Bachelor-Abschluss in Physik und Mathematik 1951 und am Massachusetts Institute of Technology mit dem Master-Abschluss in Mathematik 1952. Danach war er am Los Alamos National Laboratory, wo er den Rest seiner Karriere blieb. 1958 wurde er bei Peter Lax an der New York University promoviert (Finite Difference Approximations to Solutions of Partial Differential Equations). Von 1966 bis 1974 war er Professor an der University of Denver. Neben seiner Mitgliedschaft am LANL war er Adjunct Professor an der University of New Mexico. Die Lax-Wendroff-Methode zur Lösung hyperbolischer partieller Differentialgleichungen mit der Finite-Differenzen-Methode ist nach ihm und Lax benannt. Nach beiden ist der Satz von Lax-Wendroff benannt. Er ist Fellow der SIAM. Mit Tony Warnock schrieb er das Schach-Computerprogramm Lachex, das bei den Weltmeisterschaften im Computerschach in Köln 1986 und Madrid 1992 antrat. (de)
  • Burton Wendroff (Nova Iorque, 10 de março de 1930) é um matemático estadunidense, que trabalha com equações diferenciais parciais, análise numérica e matemática aplicada. Wendroff obteve o bacharelado em física e matemática na Universidade de Nova Iorque em 1951 e um mestrado em matemática no Instituto de Tecnologia de Massachusetts em 1952. Trabalhou depois no Laboratório Nacional de Los Alamos, onde permaneceu durante o resto de sua carreira. Obteve um doutorado em 1958 na Universidade de Nova Iorque, orientado por Peter Lax, com a tese Finite Difference Approximations to Solutions of Partial Differential Equations. De 1966 a 1974 foi professor na Universidade de Denver. O método de Lax-Wendroff para a solução de equações diferenciais parciais hiperbólicas com o método das diferenças finitas é denominado em seu nome e de Lax. (pt)
