Progress in Partial Differential Equations


Book Description

The numerous applications of partial differential equations to problems in physics, mechanics, and engineering keep the subject an extremely active and vital area of research. With the number of researchers working in the field, advances-large and small-come frequently. Therefore, it is essential that mathematicians working in partial differential equations and applied mathematics keep abreast of new developments. Progress in Partial Differential Equations, presents some of the latest research in this important field. Both volumes contain the lectures and papers of top international researchers contributed at the Third European Conference on Elliptic and Parabolic Problems. In addition to the general theory of elliptic and parabolic problems, the topics covered at the conference include: applications free boundary problems fluid mechanics general evolution problems ocalculus of variations homogenization modeling numerical analysis The research notes in these volumes offer a valuable update on the state-of-the-art in this important field of mathematics.




Singular Solutions of Nonlinear Elliptic and Parabolic Equations


Book Description

This monograph looks at several trends in the investigation of singular solutions of nonlinear elliptic and parabolic equations. It discusses results on the existence and properties of weak and entropy solutions for elliptic second-order equations and some classes of fourth-order equations with L1-data and questions on the removability of singularities of solutions to elliptic and parabolic second-order equations in divergence form. It looks at localized and nonlocalized singularly peaking boundary regimes for different classes of quasilinear parabolic second- and high-order equations in divergence form. The book will be useful for researchers and post-graduate students that specialize in the field of the theory of partial differential equations and nonlinear analysis. Contents: Foreword Part I: Nonlinear elliptic equations with L^1-data Nonlinear elliptic equations of the second order with L^1-data Nonlinear equations of the fourth order with strengthened coercivity and L^1-data Part II: Removability of singularities of the solutions of quasilinear elliptic and parabolic equations of the second order Removability of singularities of the solutions of quasilinear elliptic equations Removability of singularities of the solutions of quasilinear parabolic equations Quasilinear elliptic equations with coefficients from the Kato class Part III: Boundary regimes with peaking for quasilinear parabolic equations Energy methods for the investigation of localized regimes with peaking for parabolic second-order equations Method of functional inequalities in peaking regimes for parabolic equations of higher orders Nonlocalized regimes with singular peaking Appendix: Formulations and proofs of the auxiliary results Bibliography




Regularity Estimates for Nonlinear Elliptic and Parabolic Problems


Book Description

The issue of regularity has played a central role in the theory of Partial Differential Equations almost since its inception, and despite the tremendous advances made it still remains a very fruitful research field. In particular considerable strides have been made in regularity estimates for degenerate and singular elliptic and parabolic equations over the last several years, and in many unexpected and challenging directions. Because of all these recent results, it seemed high time to create an overview that would highlight emerging trends and issues in this fascinating research topic in a proper and effective way. The course aimed to show the deep connections between these topics and to open new research directions through the contributions of leading experts in all of these fields.
