Description

This volume is representative of the lectures given at the International Conference on Differential Equations and Mathematical Physics, held at the University of Alabama at Birmingham on March 15-21 1990. It features plenary lectures on topics at the frontier of present day research, focusing on recent developments in the theory of ordinary and partial differential equations, both linear and non-linear, with particular reference to the problems of mathematical physics. Other topics include control theory, scattering theory, and microlocal analysis.

Table of Contents

• partial differential equations on thin domains
• solutions of porous medium type systems
• invariant manifolds for ordinary differential equations
• spectral and fractal geometry - from the Weyl-Berry conjecture for the vibrations of fractal drums to the Reimann zeta-function
• the (non) continuity of symmetric decreasing re-arrangement
• aspects of boundary control theory
• generic properties of nonlinear boundary value problems
• Wiener-Hopf factorization of the S matrix
• asymptotics for solution branches of semilinear elliptic problems at resonance
