Ebook: Concentration Compactness: Functional-Analytic Theory of Concentration Phenomena

Concentration compactness methods are applied to PDE's that lack compactness properties, typically due to the scaling invariance of the underlying problem. This monograph presents a systematic functional-analytic presentation of concentration mechanisms and is by far the most extensive and systematic collection of mathematical tools for analyzing the convergence of functional sequences via the mechanism of concentration.

• A comprehensive monograph on the state of the art of concentration compactness techniques
• Summary of the last ten years of research on the topic
• An authoritative overview of many deep results in modern functional analysis
