Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations: Asymptotic Behavior of Solutions and Self-Similar Solutions
Description
This work will serve as an excellent first course in modern analysis. The main focus is on showing how self-similar solutions are useful in studying the behavior of solutions of nonlinear partial differential equations, especially those of parabolic type. This textbook will be an excellent resource for self-study or classroom use.Product Details

Reviews
From the reviews:
"This book studies the asymptotic behavior of solutions to some nonlinear evolution problems by using rescaling ... methods with self-similar solutions ... . not only are there exercises but also answers to these exercises. In any case this book is a very welcome and useful addition to the literature." (Jesús Hernández, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2011 f)
"The book presents typical methods ... for the examination of the behavior of solutions of nonlinear partial differential equations of diffusion type. ... The aim of the authors was to teach the readers to deal with such tools during the study of PDEs and to give them a strong motivation for their study. ... The book is written in a very pedagogical way. Each chapter contains plenty of exercises whose detailed solutions can be found at the end of the book."
