Mean Curvature Flow and Isoperimetric Inequalities
Geometric flows have many applications in physics and geometry. The mean curvature flow occurs in the description of the interface evolution in certain physical models. This is related to the property that such a flow is the gradient flow of the area functional and therefore appears naturally in problems where a surface energy is minimized. The mean curvature flow also has many geometric applications, in analogy with the Ricci flow of metrics on abstract riemannian manifolds. One can use this flow as a tool to obtain classification results for surfaces satisfying certain curvature conditions, as well as to construct minimal surfaces. Geometric flows, obtained from solutions of geometric parabolic equations, can be considered as an alternative tool to prove isoperimetric inequalities. On the other hand, isoperimetric inequalities can help in treating several aspects of convergence of these flows. Isoperimetric inequalities have many applications in other fields of geometry, like hyperbolic manifolds.
Semiconcave Functions, Hamilton-Jacobi Equations, and Optimal Control
* A comprehensive and systematic exposition of the properties of semiconcave functions and their various applications, particularly to optimal control problems, by leading experts in the field * A central role in the present work is reserved for the study of singularities * Graduate students and researchers in optimal control, the calculus of variations, and PDEs will find this book useful as a reference work on modern dynamic programming for nonlinear control systems
Ricci Flow and Geometric Applications
Presenting some impressive recent achievements in differential geometry and topology, this volume focuses on results obtained using techniques based on Ricci flow. These ideas are at the core of the study of differentiable manifolds. Several very important open problems and conjectures come from this area and the techniques described herein are used to face and solve some of them. The book’s four chapters are based on lectures given by leading researchers in the field of geometric analysis and low-dimensional geometry/topology, respectively offering an introduction to: the differentiable sphere theorem (G. Besson), the geometrization of 3-manifolds (M. Boileau), the singularities of 3-dimensional Ricci flows (C. Sinestrari), and Kähler–Ricci flow (G. Tian). The lectures will be particularly valuable to young researchers interested in differential manifolds.
Tropical and Idempotent Mathematics and Applications
This volume contains the proceedings of the International Workshop on Tropical and Idempotent Mathematics, held at the Independent University of Moscow, Russia, from August 26-31, 2012. The main purpose of the conference was to bring together and unite researchers and specialists in various areas of tropical and idempotent mathematics and applications. This volume contains articles on algebraic foundations of tropical mathematics as well as articles on applications of tropical mathematics in various fields as diverse as economics, electroenergetic networks, chemical reactions, representation theory, and foundations of classical thermodynamics. This volume is intended for graduate students and researchers interested in tropical and idempotent mathematics or in their applications in other areas of mathematics and in technical sciences.
Nonlinear Oscillations of Hamiltonian PDEs
Many partial differential equations (PDEs) that arise in physics can be viewed as infinite-dimensional Hamiltonian systems. This monograph presents recent existence results of nonlinear oscillations of Hamiltonian PDEs, particularly of periodic solutions for completely resonant nonlinear wave equations. The text serves as an introduction to research in this fascinating and rapidly growing field. Graduate students and researchers interested in variational techniques and nonlinear analysis applied to Hamiltonian PDEs will find inspiration in the book.

Extrinsic Geometric Flows
Extrinsic geometric flows are characterized by a submanifold evolving in an ambient space with velocity determined by its extrinsic curvature. The goal of this book is to give an extensive introduction to a few of the most prominent extrinsic flows, namely, the curve shortening flow, the mean curvature flow, the Gauß curvature flow, the inverse-mean curvature flow, and fully nonlinear flows of mean curvature and inverse-mean curvature type. The authors highlight techniques and behaviors that frequently arise in the study of these (and other) flows. To illustrate the broad applicability of the techniques developed, they also consider general classes of fully nonlinear curvature flows. The bo...
Lectures on Differential Geometry
Differential geometry is a subject related to many fields in mathematics and the sciences. The authors of this book provide a vertically integrated introduction to differential geometry and geometric analysis. The material is presented in three distinct parts: an introduction to geometry via submanifolds of Euclidean space, a first course in Riemannian geometry, and a graduate special topics course in geometric analysis, and it contains more than enough content to serve as a good textbook for a course in any of these three topics. The reader will learn about the classical theory of submanifolds, smooth manifolds, Riemannian comparison geometry, bundles, connections, and curvature, the Chern?...
Equadiff 99 (In 2 Volumes) - Proceedings Of The International Conference On Differential Equations
This book is a compilation of high quality papers focussing on five major areas of active development in the wide field of differential equations: dynamical systems, infinite dimensions, global attractors and stability, computational aspects, and applications. It is a valuable reference for researchers in diverse disciplines, ranging from mathematics through physics, engineering, chemistry, nonlinear science to the life sciences.
Optimization Methods in Partial Differential Equations
The problems considered range from basic theoretical issues in the calculus of variations - such as infinite dimensional Hamilton Jacobi equations, saddle point principles, and issues of unique continuation - to ones focusing on application and computation, where theoretical tools are tuned to more specifically defined problems.
