Ebook: Methods of nonlinear analysis: applications to differential equations

In this book, the basic methods of nonlinear analysis are emphasized and illustrated in simple examples. Every considered method is motivated, explained in a general form but in the simplest possible abstract framework, and its applications are shown, particularly to boundary value problems for elementary ordinary or partial differential equations. The text is organized in two levels - a self-contained basic and, organized in appendices, an advanced level for the more experienced reader.
