Equadiff International Conference On Differential Equations 4

Equadiff-91 stems from the series of conferences initiated by the late Professor Vogel. The first conference Equadiff-70 which was held in Marseille. Since then, similar conferences had been held in Brussels, Florence, Wurzburg as well as Xanthi. The purpose of the Equadiff series of conferences is to present the latest development in the field of differential equations, both ordinary and partial, including their numerical treatment and applications to the mathematics community. These conferences had attracted renowned mathematicians from all over the world to present their studies and findings. The latest conference under the series was Equadiff-91, held in Barcelona. It attracted some 30 renowned mathematicians. Researchers and graduate students of pure and applied mathematics will find this compilation of conference proceedings up-to-date, relevant and insightful.

In this volume, leading experts on differential equations address recent advances in the fields of ordinary differential equations and dynamical systems, partial differential equations and calculus of variations, and their related applications.

This comprehensive volume contains the state of the art on ODE's and PDE's of different nature, functional differential equations, delay equations, and others, mostly from the dynamical systems point of view.A broad range of topics are treated through contributions by leading experts of their fields, presenting the most recent developments. A large variety of techniques are being used, stressing geometric, topological, ergodic and numerical aspects.The scope of the book is wide, ranging from pure mathematics to various applied fields. Examples of the latter are provided by subjects from earth and life sciences, classical mechanics and quantum-mechanics, among others.The proceedings have been selected for coverage in:• Index to Scientific & Technical Proceedings® (ISTP® / ISI Proceedings)• Index to Scientific & Technical Proceedings (ISTP CDROM version / ISI Proceedings)• CC Proceedings — Engineering & Physical Sciences

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.

The volume contains carefully selected papers presented at the International Conference on Differential & Difference Equations and Applications held in Ponta Delgada – Azores, from July 4-8, 2011 in honor of Professor Ravi P. Agarwal. The objective of the gathering was to bring together researchers in the fields of differential & difference equations and to promote the exchange of ideas and research. The papers cover all areas of differential and difference equations with a special emphasis on applications.
