Product Description: During the week of August 31 - September 4, 1998, a conference in honour of Vladimir Maz'ya was held in Rostock as a satellite meeting of the World Congress of Mathematicians. It was sponsored by the German Research Founda­ tion (Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft) and the Ministry of Education and Cul­ tural Affairs of the land Mecklenburg-Vorpommern...read more (view table of contents, read Amazon.com's description)

Product Description: This is the first volume of a collection of articles dedicated to V.G Maz'ya on the occasion of his 60th birthday. It contains surveys on his work in different fields of mathematics or on areas to which he made essential contributions...read more (view table of contents, read Amazon.com's description)

Product Description: The book is about differentiability of six operators on functions or pairs of functions: composition (f of g), integration (of f dg), multiplication and convolution of two functions, both varying, and the product integral and inverse operators for one function...read more (view table of contents, read Amazon.com's description)

Product Description: The first systematic, self-contained presentation of a theory of arbitrary order ODEs with unbounded operator coefficients in a Hilbert or Banach space. Developed over the last 10 years by the authors, it deals with conditions of solvability, classes of uniqueness, estimates for solutions and asymptotic representations of solutions at infinity...read more (view table of contents, read Amazon.com's description)

Product Description: This volume contains a collection of original papers in mathematical physics, spectral theory, and differential equations. The papers are dedicated to the outstanding mathematician, Professor M. Sh. Birman, on the occasion of his 70th birthday...read more

Product Description: If $G$ is a reductive algebraic group acting rationally on a smooth affine variety $X$, then it is generally believed that $D(X)^G$ has properties very similar to those of enveloping algebras of semisimple Lie algebras. In this book, the authors show that this is indeed the case when $G$ is a torus and $X=k^r\times (k^*)^s$...read more

Product Description: The Dirac operator has many useful applications in theoretical physics and mathematics. This book provides a clear, concise and self-contained introduction to the global theory of the Dirac operator and to the analysis of spectral asymptotics with local or nonlocal boundary conditions...read more (view table of contents, read Amazon.com's description)

Product Description: The vibration of a string with a (nondecreasing) mass distribution function m leads to a generalized differential equation of second order, introduced by Krein and by Feller. The author allows also nonmonotonic functions m and hence, gets into the theory of indefinite inner product spaces...read more (view table of contents, read Amazon.com's description)

Product Description: The distribution of the eigenvalues of differential operators has long fascinated mathematicians. Recent advances have shed new light on classical problems in this area, and this book presents a fresh approach, largely based on the results of the authors...read more (view table of contents, read Amazon.com's description)

This comprehensive and long-awaited volume provides an up-to-date account of those parts of the theory of bounded and closed linear operators in Banach and Hilbert spaces relevant to spectral problems involving differential equations. For the first time it brings together recent results in essential spectra, measures of non-compactness, entropy numbers, approximation numbers, eigenvalues, and the relationships among these concepts. The authors illustrate abstract theory with results for embedding maps between Sobolev spaces. Strong emphasis is placed on application to boundary-value problems for general second-order linear elliptic equations in an arbitrary domain in Rn. The book introduces some key eastern European work, never before available in English translation.
