Sommario/riassunto

This volume is a collection of articles discussing the most recent advances on various topics in partial differential equations. Many important issues regarding evolution problems, their asymptotic behavior and their qualitative properties are addressed. The quality and completeness of the articles will make this book a source of inspiration and references in the future. Contents: Steady Free Convection in a Bounded and Saturated Porous Medium (S Akesbi et al.); Quasilinear Parabolic Functional Evolution Equations (H Amann); A Linear Parabolic Problem with Non-Dissipative Dynamical Boundary Conditions (C Bandle & W Reichel); Remarks on Some Class of Nonlocal Elliptic Problems (M Chipot); On Some Definitions and Properties of Generalized Convex Sets Arising in the Calculus of Variations (B Dacorogna et al.); Note on the Asymptotic Behavior of Solutions to an Anisotropic Crystalline Curvature Flow (C Hirota et al.); A Reaction-Diffusion Approximation to a Cross-Diffusion System (M Iida et al.); Bifurcation Diagrams to an Elliptic Equation Involving the Critical Sobolev Exponent with the Robin Condition (Y Kabeya); Ginzburg-Landau Functional in a Thin Loop and Local Minimizers (S Kosugi & Y Morita); Singular Limit for Some Reaction Diffusion System (K Nakashima); Rayleigh-Benard Convection in a Rectangular Domain (T Ogawa & T Okuda); Some Convergence Results for Elliptic Problems with Periodic Data (Y Xie); On Global Unbounded Solutions for a Semilinear Parabolic Equation (E Yanagida). Key Features An accessible presentation of the latest, cutting-edge topics in partial differential equations Written by leading scholars in related fields Readership: Graduate students and researchers in partial differential equations and nonlinear science.
