Ebook: Nonlinear Semigroups, Partial Differential Equations and Attractors: Proceedings of a Symposium held in Washington, D.C., August 5–8, 1985

The original idea of the organizers of the Washington Symposium was to span a fairly narrow range of topics on some recent techniques developed for the investigation of nonlinear partial differential equations and discuss these in a forum of experts. It soon became clear, however, that the dynamical systems approach interfaced significantly with many important branches of applied mathematics. As a consequence, the scope of this resulting proceedings volume is an enlarged one with coverage of a wider range of research topics.
