Topological Methods for Delay and Ordinary Differential Equations, Gebunden

Klappentext

This volume explores the application of topological techniques in the study of delay and ordinary differential equations with a particular focus on continuum mechanics. Chapters, written by internationally recognized researchers in the field, present results on problems of existence, multiplicity localization, bifurcation of solutions, and more. Topological methods are used throughout, including degree theory, fixed point index theory, and classical and recent fixed point theorems. A wide variety of applications to continuum mechanics are provided as well, such as chemostats, non-Newtonian fluid flow, and flows in phase space. Topological Methods for Delay and Ordinary Differential Equations will be a valuable resource for researchers interested in differential equations, functional analysis, topology, and the applied sciences.
