Sommario/riassunto

The Canadian Annual Review of Politics and Public Affairs is an acclaimed series that offers informed commentary on important national events and considers their significance in local and international contexts. This latest instalment covers a year of dramatic activity in provincial politics.In 2007 the economy continued on its remarkable run of growth, allowing the new Conservative government to continue its predecessor’s tradition of presenting a balanced budget while further reducing Canadians’ taxes and increasing government spending. With the opposition Liberals not looking to engineer a quick election, federal politics was both cautious and static. In the provinces,



however, the Liberals won electoral victories in Quebec and Ontario, while the NDP won a third consecutive election in Manitoba. The Canadian dollar rose past parity with the American for the first time in almost 31 years, and the country celebrated the 25th anniversary of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

Frontmatter -- Contents -- Foreword -- Chapter 1 Preliminary -- Chapter 2 Asymptotic Behavior of Solutions for the One-Dimensional Infrarelativistic Model of a Compressible Viscous Gas with Radiation -- Chapter 3 Global Existence and Regularity of a One-Dimensional Liquid Crystal System -- Chapter 4 Large-Time Behavior of Solutions to a One-Dimensional Liquid Crystal System -- Bibliography -- Index

Sommario/riassunto

This book presents recent results on nonlinear evolutionary fluid equations, in particular the global well-posedness and asymptotic behavior of solutions to 1D radiative fluid equations, as well as liquid crystal equations. Most of the material in this book was prepared by the author over the past few years.This book has two main features. Firstly, there are more known results on higher dimensional radiative fluid systems but only on the local existence and explosion of solutions; while the existing findings on the one-dimensional case present some shortcomings, this book introduces corrections and improvements of



these shortcomings. Secondly, the current findings on the high-dimensional compressible liquid crystal fluid equations are few and include only globally existing solutions but not the asymptotic behavior of the solutions; the author developed not only the global existence and regularity of the solutions, but also the asymptotic behavior of the solutions for the one-dimensional case in the chapter 3 of this book. Therefore, this work provides the reader with complete elements related to the one-dimensional compressible liquid crystal fluid system.
