Free Boundary Problems: Theory and Applications
1st Edition
By Ioannis Athanasopoulos, Jose Francisco Rodrigues, George Makrakis
June 25, 1999
Free boundary problems arise in an enormous number of situations in nature and technology. They hold a strategic position in pure and applied sciences and thus have been the focus of considerable research over the last three decades. Free Boundary Problems: Theory and Applications presents the work...
Nonlinear Differential Equations
1st Edition
By Pavel Drabek, Pavel Krejci, Peter Takac
May 20, 1999
Working with mathematical models today requires in-depth knowledge of recent methods developed for solving nonlinear differential equations. Keeping abreast of these developments is the goal of the regular meetings of nonlinear analysts held in the Czech Republic, the most recent of which formed ...
Covers and Envelopes in the Category of Complexes of Modules
1st Edition
By J.R. Garcia Rozas
May 11, 1999
Over the last few years, the study of complexes has become increasingly important. To date, however, most of the research is scattered throughout the literature or available only as lecture notes. Covers and Envelopes in the Category of Complexes of Modules collects these scattered notes and ...
Nonlinear Theory of Generalized Functions
1st Edition
Edited
By Michael Oberguggenberger, Michael Grosser, Michael Kunzinger, Gunther Hormann
March 16, 1999
Questions regarding the interplay of nonlinearity and the creation and propagation of singularities arise in a variety of fields-including nonlinear partial differential equations, noise-driven stochastic partial differential equations, general relativity, and geometry with singularities. A ...
