Description for Advances in the Theory of Shock Waves
Hardback. Provides a comprehensive treatment of central themes in the modern mathematical theory of shock waves. This work covers: the uniqueness of weak solutions to hyperbolic systems of conservation laws in one space variable (Tai-Ping Liu); the multidimensional stability problem for shock fronts (Guy M,tivier); and, more. Editor(s): Freistuhler, Heinrich; Szepessy, Anders. Series: Progress in Nonlinear Differential Equations and Their Applications. Num Pages: 528 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PBW. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 30. Weight in Grams: 923.
In the field known as "the mathematical theory of shock waves," very exciting and unexpected developments have occurred in the last few years. Joel Smoller and Blake Temple have established classes of shock wave solutions to the Einstein Euler equations of general relativity; indeed, the mathematical and physical con sequences of these examples constitute a whole new area of research. The stability theory of "viscous" shock waves has received a new, geometric perspective due to the work of Kevin Zumbrun and collaborators, which offers a spectral approach to systems. Due to the intersection of point and essential spectrum, such an ... Read more
