Ebook: Geometric analysis and nonlinear PDEs

This reference features papers from the Special Session of the American Mathematical Society Meeting held in 1990 at the University of North Texas, Denton - discussing and developing research on boundary value problems for nonlinear partial differential equations and related problems.;Written by more than 15 authorities in the field, Geometric Analysis and Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations: presents methods and results of the convex bodies and geometric inequalities theory and its applications to differential equations, geometry, and mathematical physics; details recent studies on Monge-Ampere equations, emphasizing geometric inequalities governing a priori estimates of solutions and existence theorems of the Dirichlet problem for convex generalized solutions and showing the proofs of all theorems; examines the generalization of the isoperimetric inequality for two-dimensional general convex surfaces whose integral Gaussian curvature is less than 2 pi; and contains open problems on the theory of surfaces with constant mean curvature.;Geometric Analysis and Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations is for mathematical analysts, geometers, pure and applied mathematicians, physicists, engineers, computer scientists, and upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in these disciplines.
