Description
"Provides a great deal of material that is completely new to the field of flow invariance, offering fresh insights for experienced mathematicians and rigorous training for students new to the specialty. Four useful appendices supply the methods used throughout the book, making it a totally self-referential and self-contained unit. Features many results that are exclusive to the authors."
Reviews / Votes
"By the way of considered problems and the originality of some approaches, this book is an important reference in pure and applied mathematics, more precisely in nonlinear analysis, optimization, optimal control, ordinary differential equations, partial differential equations, and critical point theory."---Zentralblatt fur Mathematik, 2000
