Description

The sixtieth birthday of the eminent mathematician, Jacques-Louis Lions, was celebrated in Paris with a gathering of his friends from the scientific community all over the world. Several hundred scientists met for a week at the Sorbonne and nineteen of the lectures they delivered have been collected in this unique volume, which is an investigation of the frontiers of mathematics.
