概要 |
This text is for graduate students and researchers who have had at least a standard graduate course in ordinary differential equations (ODEs). Some sections of the book contain more advanced material,...particularly nonlinear functional analysis and some topics in the calculus of variations. Readers with only a graduate course in ODEs will find this material challenging. The book presents classic proofs and modern methods for the analysis of boundary value problems for ODEs. In many cases, several approaches are given for solving the same problem. Emphasis is on mathematical techniques, rather than results or applications, although applied problems illustrate the techniques. Chapter exercises and proofs are included. The final chapter presents three unsolved problems. Information on the authors is not given. Annotation ©2012 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com) 続きを見る
