Nonlinear Elliptic and Parabolic Problems : A Special Tribute to the Work of Herbert Amann
The present volume is dedicated to celebrate the work of the renowned mathematician Herbert Amann, who had a significant and decisive influence in shaping Nonlinear Analysis. Most articles published in this book, which consists of 32 articles in total, written by highly distinguished researchers, are in one way or another related to the scientific works of Herbert Amann. The contributions cover a wide range of nonlinear elliptic and parabolic equations with applications to natural sciences and engineering. Special topics are fluid dynamics, reaction-diffusion systems, bifurcation theory, maximal regularity, evolution equations, and the theory of function spaces.
Elliptic and Parabolic Problems : A Special Tribute to the Work of Haim Brezis
This volume contains contributions by former students and collaborators of Haim Brezis given in honor of his 60th anniversary at a conference in Gaeta. H. Brezis has made significant contributions in the fields of partial differential equations and functional analysis. He is an inspiring teacher and counselor of many mathematicians in the front ranks. The collection of papers presented here grew out from his deep insight of analysis. In addition it reflects Brezis's elegant way of creative thinking
Design of adaptive finite Element software : The finite element toolbox ALBERTA
During the last years, scientific computing has become an important research branch located between applied mathematics and applied sciences and engineering. Highly efficient numerical methods are based on adaptive methods, higher order discretizations, fast linear and non-linear iterative solvers, multi-level algorithms, etc. Such methods are integrated in the adaptive finite element software ALBERTA. It is a toolbox for the fast and flexible implementation of efficient software for real life applications, based on modern algorithms. ALBERTA also serves as an environment for improving existent, or developing new numerical methods in an interplay with mathematical analysis and it allows the direct integration of such new or improved methods in existing simulation software.
