Cambridge University Press A Primer of Nonlinear Analysis 34 Cambridge Studies in Advanced Mathematics Series Number 34
Book SynopsisThis is an introduction to nonlinear functional analysis, in particular to those methods based on differential calculus in Banach spaces. It is in two parts; the first deals with the geometry of Banach spaces and includes a discussion of local and global inversion theorems for differentiable mappings. In the second part, the authors are more concerned with bifurcation theory, including the Hopf bifurcation. They include plenty of motivational and illustrative applications, which indeed provide much of the justification of nonlinear analysis. In particular, they discuss bifurcation problems arising from such areas as mechanics and fluid dynamics. The book is intended to accompany upper division courses for students of pure and applied mathematics and physics; exercises are consequently included.Trade Review'There's no more economical or lucid introduction to the subject than this great little book.' The Mathematical IntelligencerTable of ContentsPreface; Preliminaries and notation; 1. Differential calculus; 2. Local inversion theorems; 3. Global inversion theorems; 4. Semilinear Dirichlet problems; 5. Bifurcation results; 6. Bifurcation problems; 7. Bifurcation of periodic solutions; Further reading.

Cambridge University Press Symmetry Methods for Differential Equations A Beginners Guide 22 Cambridge Texts in Applied Mathematics Series Number 22
Book SynopsisSymmetry is the key to solving differential equations. There are many well-known techniques for obtaining exact solutions, but most of them are special cases of a few powerful symmetry methods. Furthermore, these methods can be applied to differential equations of an unfamiliar type; they do not rely on special 'tricks'. Instead, a given differential equation is forced to reveal its symmetries, which are then used to construct exact solutions. This book is a straightforward introduction to the subject, and is aimed at applied mathematicians, physicists, and engineers. The presentation is informal, using many worked examples to illustrate the main symmetry methods. It is written at a level suitable for postgraduates and advanced undergraduates, and is designed to enable the reader to master the main techniques quickly and easily. The book contains methods that have not previously appeared in a text. These include methods for obtaining discrete symmetries and integrating factors.Trade Review'Hydon's book stands out as perhaps the best introductory level text currently available … Hydon's book is extremely well-written, and a welcome addition to the literature on Lie's methods. The author has clearly devoted a lot of effort to pedagogical details, and the exposition is designed to effortlessly bring the beginning student up to speed in basic applications of the method.' Peter Olver, ZAMM'I really enjoyed reading this book and I am planning on using some parts for one of my next courses.' Monatshefte für Mathematik'… a nice introduction to symmetry methods for ordinary and partial differential equations written with passion by a specialist … after a few pages it becomes clear that the book is written in a lucid and precise manner.' Zentralblatt MATH'This new book by Peter Hydon … is eminently suitable for advanced undergraduates and beginning postgraduate students … Overall I thoroughly recommend this book and believe that it will be a useful textbook for introducing students to symmetry methods for differential equations.' Journal of Nonlinear Mathematical Physics'Throughout the text numerous examples are worked out in detail and the exercises have been well chosen. this is the most readable text on this material I have seen and I would recommend the book for self-study (as an introduction).' MathSciNet'It is very suitable for, and is specifically aimed at, postgraduate courses in the field. it is the more enjoyable for being written with infectious enthusiasm and there is a good selection of examples.'

Cambridge University Press Stochastic Flows and Stochastic Differential Equations 24 Cambridge Studies in Advanced Mathematics Series Number 24
Book SynopsisThe main purpose of this book is to give a systematic treatment of the theory of stochastic differential equations and stochastic flow of diffeomorphisms, and through the former to study the properties of stochastic flows. The classical theory was initiated by K. Ità and since then has been much developed. Professor Kunita's approach here is to regard the stochastic differential equation as a dynamical system driven by a random vector field, including thereby ItÃ's theory as a special case. The book can be used with advanced courses on probability theory or for self-study. The author begins with a discussion of Markov processes, martingales and Brownian motion, followed by a review of ItÃ's stochastic analysis. The next chapter deals with continuous semimartingales with spatial parameters, in order to study stochastic flow, and a generalisation of Ito's equation. Stochastic flows and their relation with this are generalised and considered in chapter 4. It is shown that solutions of a gTrade Review"The book could be used with advanced courses on probability theory or for self study." MTW, JASATable of Contents1.

Cambridge University Press A First Course in the Numerical Analysis of Differential Equations 44 Cambridge Texts in Applied Mathematics Series Number 44
Book SynopsisNumerical analysis presents different faces to the world. For mathematicians it is a bona fide mathematical theory with an applicable flavour. For scientists and engineers it is a practical, applied subject, part of the standard repertoire of modelling techniques. For computer scientists it is a theory on the interplay of computer architecture and algorithms for real-number calculations. The tension between these standpoints is the driving force of this book, which presents a rigorous account of the fundamentals of numerical analysis of both ordinary and partial differential equations. The exposition maintains a balance between theoretical, algorithmic and applied aspects. This second edition has been extensively updated, and includes new chapters on emerging subject areas: geometric numerical integration, spectral methods and conjugate gradients. Other topics covered include multistep and Runge-Kutta methods; finite difference and finite elements techniques for the Poisson equation; aTrade Review'A well written and exciting book … the exposition throughout is clear and very lively. The author's enthusiasm and wit are obvious on almost every page and I recommend the text very strongly indeed.'

Zentralblatt fur Mathematik'The overall structure and the clarity of the exposition make this book an excellent introductory textbook for mathematics students.
