Convergence of One-Parameter Operator Semigroups: In Models of Mathematical Biology and Elsewhere: New Mathematical Monographs, cartea 30

Autor Adam Bobrowski
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 13 iul 2016
This book presents a detailed and contemporary account of the classical theory of convergence of semigroups and its more recent development treating the case where the limit semigroup, in contrast to the approximating semigroups, acts merely on a subspace of the original Banach space (this is the case, for example, with singular perturbations). The author demonstrates the far-reaching applications of this theory using real examples from various branches of pure and applied mathematics, with a particular emphasis on mathematical biology. The book may serve as a useful reference, containing a significant number of new results ranging from the analysis of fish populations to signaling pathways in living cells. It comprises many short chapters, which allows readers to pick and choose those topics most relevant to them, and it contains 160 end-of-chapter exercises so that readers can test their understanding of the material as they go along.

Recenzii

'This book is excellent in many respects. It is beautifully written, it contains many new and clever arguments, and it is a long, connected story told by a masterful storyteller. … Operator semigroup theory continues to grow and thrive and new and unexpected applications continue to lead to new theory. There is a large textbook/monograph literature including the early book by Hille and by Hille and Phillips, and later books by, alphabetically, Cialdea and Maz'ya, Davies, Dunford and Schwartz, Engel and Nagel, Fattorini, Goldstein, Kato, Krein, Lax, Nagel et al., Pazy, and Yosida. Bobrowski's book stands with these as books which contain information about theory and applications which could not be found elsewhere at the time of publication. Bobrowski's superb exposition and his wide scope and new applications will keep the semigroup community busy. We can all be grateful.' Jerome A. Goldstein, Semigroup Forum
