This volume contains a selection of contributions by prominent mathematicians from the many interesting presentations delivered at the Conference of Mathematics and Mathematical Physics that was held in Fez, Morocco during the period of 28?30 October, 2008. Readers will find that this volume merges different approaches in nonlinear analysis, and covers, in a broad and balanced fashion, both the theoretical and the numerical aspects of the subject. Graduate students, researchers and professionals with interest in the subject will find it useful while keeping abreast with the latest advancements in this field.
This book forms a valuable guide to the direction in which current numerical analysis research is heading. It will be of particular interest to graduate students and researchers concerned with the theoretical and practical issues associated with scientific computation. The main topics include ordinary and partial differential equations, fluid flow, optimization, linear algebra, and approximation theory. Two recurring themes are the need for adaptive and structure preserving numerical methods. The work presented here has a list of direct applications that include colliding black holes, molecular dynamics, blow-up problems, and card shuffling.
These conference proceedings include papers by a number of experts with a common interest in differential equations and their application in physical and biological systems. Topics covered include direct and inverse electromagnetic scattering techniques, spatial epidemic models, wound healing, chemotaxis and reaction-diffusion equations, dynamics and stability of thin liquid films, and a contemporary formulation of symmetric linear differential equations.
The general theories contained in the text will give rise to new ideas and methods for the natural inversion formulas for general linear mappings in the framework of Hilbert spaces containing the natural solutions for Fredholm integral equations of the first kind.
This is a graduate-level introduction to the key ideas and theoretical foundation of the vibrant field of optimal mass transport in the Euclidean setting. Taking a pedagogical approach, it introduces concepts gradually and in an accessible way, while also remaining technically and conceptually complete.
An important class of integral expansions generated by Sturm-Liouville theory involving spherical harmonics is commonly known as Mehler-Fock integral transforms. In this book, a number of integral expansions of such type have been established rigorously. As applications, integral expansions of some simple function are also obtained.
Elliptic Boundary Value Problems With Indefinite Weights presents a unified approach to the methodologies dealing with eigenvalue problems involving indefinite weights. The principal eigenvalue for such problems is characterized for various boundary conditions. Such characterizations are used, in particular, to formulate criteria for the persistence and extinctions of populations, and applications of the formulations obtained can be quite extensive.
One-dimensional variational problems have been somewhat neglected in the literature on calculus of variations, as authors usually treat minimal problems for multiple integrals which lead to partial differential equations and are considerably more difficult to handle. One-dimensional problems are connected with ordinary differential equations, and hence need many fewer technical prerequisites, but they exhibit the same kind of phenomena and surprises as variational problems for multiple integrals. This book provides an modern introduction to this subject, placing special emphasis on direct methods. It combines the efforts of a distinguished team of authors who are all renowned mathematicians ...
