Mathematical Topics in Fluid Mechanics: Volume 2: Compressible Models

Fluid mechanics models consist of systems of nonlinear partial differential equations for which, despite a long history of important mathematical contributions, no complete mathematical understanding is available. The second volume of this book describes compressible fluid-mechanics models. The book contains entirely new material on a subject known to be rather difficult and important for applications (compressible flows). It is probably a unique effort on the mathematical problems associated with the compressible Navier-Stokes equations, written by one of the world's leading experts on nonlinear partial differential equations. Professor P.L. Lions won the Fields Medal in 1994.

The Master Equation and the Convergence Problem in Mean Field Games

This book describes the latest advances in the theory of mean field games, which are optimal control problems with a continuum of players, each of them interacting with the whole statistical distribution of a population. While it originated in economics, this theory now has applications in areas as diverse as mathematical finance, crowd phenomena, epidemiology, and cybersecurity. Because mean field games concern the interactions of infinitely many players in an optimal control framework, one expects them to appear as the limit for Nash equilibria of differential games with finitely many players as the number of players tends to infinity. This book rigorously establishes this convergence, whi...

  • Publisher: OUP Oxford

One of the most challenging topics in applied mathematics has been the development of the theory of nonlinear partial differential equations. Despite a long history of contributions, there exists no central core theory. This two volume work forms a unique and rigorous treatise on various mathematical aspects of fluid mechanics models.

Generalized Solutions of Hamilton-Jacobi Equations

This volume contains a complete and self-contained treatment of Hamilton-Jacobi equations. The author gives a new presentation of classical methods and of the relations between Hamilton-Jacobi equations and other fields. This complete treatment of both classical and recent aspects of the subject is presented in such a way that it requires only elementary notions of analysis and partial differential equations.

Mathematical Analysis and Numerical Methods for Science and Technology

These 6 volumes -- the result of a 10 year collaboration between the authors, both distinguished international figures -- compile the mathematical knowledge required by researchers in mechanics, physics, engineering, chemistry and other branches of application of mathematics for the theoretical and numerical resolution of physical models on computers. The advent of high-speed computers has made it possible to calculate values from models accurately and rapidly. Researchers and engineers thus have a crucial means of using numerical results to modify and adapt arguments and experiments along the way.

The Mathematical Theory of Thermodynamic Limits

The thermodynamic limit is a mathematical technique for modeling crystals or other macroscopic objects by considering them as infinite periodic arrays of molecules. The technique allows models in solid state physics to be derived directly from models in quantum chemistry. This book presents new results, many previously unpublished, for a large class of models and provides a survey of the mathematics of thermodynamic limit problems. The authors both work closely with Fields Medal-winner Pierre-Louis Lion, and the book will be a valuable tool for applied mathematicians and mathematical physicists studying nonlinear partial differential equations.

Parabolic Equations with Irregular Data and Related Issues

This book studies the existence and uniqueness of solutions to parabolic-type equations with irregular coefficients and/or initial conditions. It elaborates on the DiPerna-Lions theory of renormalized solutions to linear transport equations and related equations, and also examines the connection between the results on the partial differential equation and the well-posedness of the underlying stochastic/ordinary differential equation.

Paris-Princeton Lectures on Mathematical Finance 2010

The Paris-Princeton Lectures in Financial Mathematics, of which this is the fourth volume, publish cutting-edge research in self-contained, expository articles from outstanding specialists - established or on the rise! The aim is to produce a series of articles that can serve as an introductory reference source for research in the field. The articles are the result of frequent exchanges between the finance and financial mathematics groups in Paris and Princeton. The present volume sets standards with five articles by: 1. Areski Cousin, Monique Jeanblanc and Jean-Paul Laurent, 2. Stéphane Crépey, 3. Olivier Guéant, Jean-Michel Lasry and Pierre-Louis Lions, 4. David Hobson and 5. Peter Tankov.
