In many ways the last decade has witnessed a surge of interest in the interplay between theoretical physics and some traditional areas of pure mathematics.
This volume contains the proceedings of the Colloquium "e;Analysis, Manifolds and Physics"e; organized in honour of Yvonne Choquet-Bruhat by her friends, collaborators and former students, on June 3, 4 and 5, 1992 in Paris.
This is the first publication which follows an agreement by Kluwer Publishers with the Caribbean Mathematics Foundation (CMF), to publish the proceedings of its mathematical activities.
This volume contains the proceedings of the NATO Advanced Research Workshop on "e;Asymptotic-induced Numerical Methods for Partial Differ- ential Equations, Critical Parameters, and Domain Decomposition,"e; held at Beaune (France), May 25-28, 1992.
This volume provides a comprehensive review of the developments which have taken place during the last thirty years concerning the asymptotic properties of solutions of nonautonomous ordinary differential equations.
Integration in infinitely dimensional spaces (continual integration) is a powerful mathematical tool which is widely used in a number of fields of modern mathematics, such as analysis, the theory of differential and integral equations, probability theory and the theory of random processes.
This series presents some tools of applied mathematics in the areas of proba- bility theory, operator calculus, representation theory, and special functions used currently, and we expect more and more in the future, for solving problems in math- ematics, physics, and, now, computer science.
Integral representations of holomorphic functions play an important part in the classical theory of functions of one complex variable and in multidimensional com- plex analysis (in the later case, alongside with integration over the whole boundary aD of a domain D we frequently encounter integration over the Shilov boundary 5 = S(D)).
In the past few years there has been a fruitful exchange of expertise on the subject of partial differential equations (PDEs) between mathematicians from the People's Republic of China and the rest of the world.
The aim of this book is to develop a new approach which we called the hyper- geometric one to the theory of various integral transforms, convolutions, and their applications to solutions of integro-differential equations, operational calculus, and evaluation of integrals.
The numerous applications of optimal control theory have given an incentive to the development of approximate techniques aimed at the construction of control laws and the optimization of dynamical systems.
During the past two decades representations of noncompact Lie groups and Lie algebras have been studied extensively, and their application to other branches of mathematics and to physical sciences has increased enormously.
Two central problems in the pure theory of economic growth are analysed in this monograph: 1) the dynamic laws governing the economic growth processes, 2) the kinematic and geometric properties of the set of solutions to the dynamic systems.
These two volumes contain the proceedings of the Workshop on Transition, Turbulence and Combustion, sponsored by the Insti- tute for Computer Applications in Science and Engineering (ICASE) and the NASA Langley Research Center (LaRC), during June 7 to July 2, 1993.
These are the proceedings of the international conference on "e;Nonlinear numerical methods and Rational approximation II"e; organised by Annie Cuyt at the University of Antwerp (Belgium), 05-11 September 1993.
This book collects contributions to the conference"e; Dynamics, Bifurcation and Symmetry, new trends and new tools"e;, which was held at the Institut d'Etudes Sci- entifiques de Cargese (France), September 3-9, 1993.
The Boundary Element Method is a simple, efficient and cost effective computational technique which provides numerical solutions - for objects of any shap- for a wide range of scientific and engineering problems.
This work is a revised and enlarged edition of a book with the same title published in Romanian by the Publishing House of the Romanian Academy in 1989.
In the present book the reader will find a review of methods for constructing a certain class of asymptotic solutions, which we call self-stabilizing solutions.
"e;Models are often the only way of interpreting measurements to in- vestigate long-range transport, and this is the reason for the emphasis on them in many research programs"e;.
Harmonic Analysis in China is a collection of surveys and research papers written by distinguished Chinese mathematicians from within the People's Republic of China and expatriates.
Recent years have witnessed an increasingly close relationship growing between potential theory, probability and degenerate partial differential operators.
High Performance Computing in the Geosciences surveys the state of the art of programs presently being developed which require high performance computing for their implementation, provides a guide for decision making in regard to computing directions in future numerical models, and provides an overview of future developments in massively parallel processing and their implications for numerical modelling in the geosciences.
