By: Evans, Lawrence C, 1949-.
Material type: TextTextSeries: Graduate studies in mathematics: v. 19.Publisher: Hyderabad, Telangana. Universities (Press) India Private Limited. c2016Edition: 2nd ed. indian edition.Description: xxi, 749 p. : ill. ; 27 cm.Content type: text Media type: unmediated Carrier type: volumeISBN: 978170414979 (pbk.); 0821849743 (pbk.).Subject(s): Differential equations, PartialDDC classification: 515.353
Contents:
PART I. REPRESENTATION FORMULAS FOR SOLUTIONS: Four important linear PDE -- Nonlinear first-order PDE -- Other ways to represent solutions -- PART II. THEORY FOR LINEAR PARTIAL DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS: Sobolev spaces -- Second-order elliptic equations -- Linear evolution equations -- PART III. THEORY FOR NONLINEAR PARTIAL DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS: The calculus of variations -- Nonvariational techniques -- Hamilton-Jacobi equations -- Systems of conservation laws -- Nonlinear wave equations.
Summary: "This is the second edition of the now definitive text on partial differential equations (PDE). It offers a comprehensive survey of modern techniques in the theoretical study of PDE with particular emphasis on nonlinear equations. Its wide scope and clear exposition make it a great text for a graduate course in PDE. For this edition, the author has made numerous changes, including: a new chapter on nonlinear wave equations, more than 80 new exercises, several new sections, and a significantly expanded bibliography."--Publisher's description.
