This book highlights the latest developments in the geometry of measurable sets, presenting them in simple, straightforward terms. It addresses nonlocal notions of perimeter and curvature and studies in detail the minimal surfaces associated with them. These notions of nonlocal perimeter and curvature are defined on the basis of a non-singular kernel. Further, when the kernel is appropriately rescaled, they converge toward the classical perimeter and curvature as the rescaling parameter tends to zero. In this way, the usual notions can be recovered by using the nonlocal ones. In addition, nonlocal heat content is studied and an asymptotic expansion is obtained. Given its scope, the book is intended for undergraduate and graduate students, as well as senior researchers interested in analysis and/or geometry.

This book discusses theoretical and applied aspects of Sturm-Liouville theory and its generalization. It introduces and classifies generalized Sturm-Liouville problems in three different spaces: continuous, discrete, and q-discrete spaces, focusing on special functions that are solutions of a regular or singular Sturm-Liouville problem. Further, it describes the conditions under which the usual Sturm-Liouville problems with symmetric solutions can be extended to a larger class, particularly highlighting the solutions of generalized problems that result in new orthogonal sequences of continuous or discrete functions.Sturm-Liouville theory is central to problems in many areas, such as engineering, mathematics, physics, and biology. This accessibly written book on the topic is a valuable resource for a broad interdisciplinary readership, from novices to experts.

This book presents a concise introduction to a unified Hilbert space approach to the mathematical modelling of physical phenomena which has been developed over recent years by Picard and his co-workers. The main focus is on time-dependent partial differential equations with a particular structure in the Hilbert space setting that ensures well-posedness and causality, two essential properties of any reasonable model in mathematical physics or engineering.However, the application of the theory to other types of equations is also demonstrated. By means of illustrative examples, from the straightforward to the more complex, the authors show that many of the classical models in mathematical physics as well as more recent models of novel materials and interactions are covered, or can be restructured to be covered, by this unified Hilbert space approach.The reader should require only a basic foundation in the theory of Hilbert spaces and operators therein. For convenience, however, some of the more technical background requirements are covered in detail in two appendices The theory is kept as elementary as possible, making the material suitable for a senior undergraduate or master’s level course. In addition, researchers in a variety of fields whose work involves partial differential equations and applied operator theory will also greatly benefit from this approach to structuring their mathematical models in order that the general theory can be applied to ensure the essential properties of well-posedness and causality.

This book presents the evolution of uniform approximations of continuous functions. Starting from the simple case of a real continuous function defined on a closed real interval, i.e., the Weierstrass approximation theorems, it proceeds up to the abstract case of approximation theorems in a locally convex lattice of (M) type. The most important generalizations of Weierstrass’ theorems obtained by Korovkin, Bohman, Stone, Bishop, and Von Neumann are also included.In turn, the book presents the approximation of continuous functions defined on a locally compact space (the functions from a weighted space) and that of continuous differentiable functions defined on ¡n. In closing, it highlights selected approximation theorems in locally convex lattices of (M) type.The book is intended for advanced and graduate students of mathematics, and can also serve as a resource for researchers in the field of the theory of functions.

In this book the authors use a technique based on recurrence relations to study the convergence of the Newton method under mild differentiability conditions on the first derivative of the operator involved. The authors’ technique relies on the construction of a scalar sequence, not majorizing, that satisfies a system of recurrence relations, and guarantees the convergence of the method. The application is user-friendly and has certain advantages over Kantorovich’s majorant principle. First, it allows generalizations to be made of the results obtained under conditions of Newton-Kantorovich type and, second, it improves the results obtained through majorizing sequences. In addition, the authors extend the application of Newton’s method in Banach spaces from the modification of the domain of starting points. As a result, the scope of Kantorovich’s theory for Newton’s method is substantially broadened. Moreover, this technique can be applied to any iterative method. This book is chiefly intended for researchers and (postgraduate) students working on nonlinear equations, as well as scientists in general with an interest in numerical analysis.

This book demonstrates the influence of geometry on the qualitative behaviour of solutions of quasilinear PDEs on Riemannian manifolds. Motivated by examples arising, among others, from the theory of submanifolds, the authors study classes of coercive elliptic differential inequalities on domains of a manifold M with very general nonlinearities depending on the variable x, on the solution u and on its gradient. The book highlights the mean curvature operator and its variants, and investigates the validity of strong maximum principles, compact support principles and Liouville type theorems. In particular, it identifies sharp thresholds involving curvatures or volume growth of geodesic balls in M to guarantee the above properties under appropriate Keller-Osserman type conditions, which are investigated in detail throughout the book, and discusses the geometric reasons behind the existence of such thresholds. Further, the book also provides a unified review of recent results in the literature, and creates a bridge with geometry by studying the validity of weak and strong maximum principles at infinity, in the spirit of Omori-Yau’s Hessian and Laplacian principles and subsequent improvements.

This research monograph develops the theory of relative nonhomogeneous Koszul duality. Koszul duality is a fundamental phenomenon in homological algebra and related areas of mathematics, such as algebraic topology, algebraic geometry, and representation theory. Koszul duality is a popular subject of contemporary research. This book, written by one of the world's leading experts in the area, includes the homogeneous and nonhomogeneous quadratic duality theory over a nonsemisimple, noncommutative base ring, the Poincare–Birkhoff–Witt theorem generalized to this context, and triangulated equivalences between suitable exotic derived categories of modules, curved DG comodules, and curved DG contramodules. The thematic example, meaning the classical duality between the ring of differential operators and the de Rham DG algebra of differential forms, involves some of the most important objects of study in the contemporary algebraic and differential geometry. For the first timein the history of Koszul duality the derived D-\Omega duality is included into a general framework. Examples highly relevant for algebraic and differential geometry are discussed in detail.

The aim of our book is the investigation of the behavior of strong and weak solutions to the regular oblique derivative problems for second order elliptic equations, linear and quasi-linear, in the neighborhood of the boundary singularities. The main goal is to establish the precise exponent of the solution decrease rate and under the best possible conditions. The question on the behavior of solutions of elliptic boundary value problems near boundary singularities is of great importance for its many applications, e.g., in hydrodynamics, aerodynamics, fracture mechanics, in the geodesy etc. Only few works are devoted to the regular oblique derivative problems for second order elliptic equations in non-smooth domains. All results are given with complete proofs. The monograph will be of interest to graduate students and specialists in elliptic boundary value problems and their applications.

This monograph provides a comprehensive study of a typical and novel function space, known as the $\mathcal{N}_p$ spaces. These spaces are Banach and Hilbert spaces of analytic functions on the open unit disk and open unit ball, and the authors also explore composition operators and weighted composition operators on these spaces. The book covers a significant portion of the recent research on these spaces, making it an invaluable resource for those delving into this rapidly developing area. The authors introduce various weighted spaces, including the classical Hardy space $H^2$, Bergman space $B^2$, and Dirichlet space $\mathcal{D}$. By offering generalized definitions for these spaces, readers are equipped to explore further classes of Banach spaces such as Bloch spaces $\mathcal{B}^p$ and Bergman-type spaces $A^p$. Additionally, the authors extend their analysis beyond the open unit disk $\mathbb{D}$ and open unit ball $\mathbb{B}$ by presenting families of entire functions in the complex plane $\mathbb{C}$ and in higher dimensions. The Theory of $\mathcal{N}_p$ Spaces is an ideal resource for researchers and PhD students studying spaces of analytic functions and operators within these spaces.

The book gives the basic results of the theory of the spaces Apω of functions holomorphic in the unit disc, halfplane and in the finite complex plane, which depend on functional weights ω permitting any rate of growth of a function near the boundary of the domain. This continues and essentially improves M.M. Djrbashian's theory of spaces Apα (1945) of functions holomorphic in the unit disc, the English translation of the detailed and complemented version of which (1948) is given in Addendum to the book. Besides, the book gives the ω-extensions of M. M. Djrbashian's two factorization theories of functions meromorphic in the unit disc of 1945-1948 and 1966-1975 to classes of functions delta-subharmonic in the unit disc and in the half-plane.The book can be useful for a wide range of readers. It can be a good handbook for Master, PhD students and Postdoctoral Researchers for enlarging their knowledge and analytical methods, as well as a useful resource for scientists who want to extend their investigation fields.

This monograph deals with the Hadamard products of algebraic varieties. A typical subject of study in Algebraic Geometry are varieties constructed from other geometrical objects. The most well-known example is constituted by the secant varieties, which are obtained through the construction of the join of two algebraic varieties, which, in turn, is based on the operation of summing two vectors. However, other constructions are possible through a change of the basic operation. One remarkable case is based on the Hadamard product of two vectors. While secant varieties of algebraic varieties have been studied extensively and systematically, the same is not yet true for the Hadamard products of algebraic varieties. This monograph aims to bridge this gap in the literature.The topic is presented in a self-contained manner, and it is accessible to all readers with sound knowledge of Commutative Algebra and Algebraic Geometry. Both experienced researchers and students can profit from this monograph, which will guide them through the subject. The foundational aspects of the Hadamard products of algebraic varieties are covered and some connections both within and outside Algebraic Geometry are presented. The theoretical and algorithmic aspects of the subject are considered to demonstrate the effectiveness of the results presented. Thus, this monograph will also be useful to researchers in other fields, such as Algebraic Statistics, since it provides several algebraic and geometric results on such products.

This monograph proposes a unified theory of the calculus of fractional and standard derivatives by means of an abstract operator-theoretic approach. By highlighting the axiomatic properties shared by standard derivatives, Riemann-Liouville and Caputo derivatives, the author introduces two new classes of objects. The first class concerns differential triplets and differential quadruplets; the second concerns boundary restriction operators. Instances of boundary restriction operators can be generalized fractional differential operators supplemented with homogeneous boundary conditions. The analysis of these operators comprises:The computation of adjoint operators;The definition of abstract boundary values;The solvability of equations supplemented with inhomogeneous abstract linear boundary conditions;The analysis of fractional inhomogeneous Dirichlet Problems.As a result of this approach, two striking consequences are highlighted: Riemann-Liouville and Caputo operators appear to differ only by their boundary conditions; and the boundary values of functions in the domain of fractional operators are closely related to their kernel.Unified Theory for Fractional and Entire Differential Operators will appeal to researchers in analysis and those who work with fractional derivatives. It is mostly self-contained, covering the necessary background in functional analysis and fractional calculus.

This monograph introduces a new mathematical model in population dynamics that describes two species sharing the same environmental resources in a situation of open hostility. Its main feature is the expansion of the family of Lotka-Volterra systems by introducing a new term that defines aggression. Because the model is flexible, it can be applied to various scenarios in the context of human populations, such as strategy games, competition in the marketplace, and civil wars.Drawing from a variety of methodologies within dynamical systems, ODEs, and mathematical biology, the authors' approach focuses on the dynamical properties of the system. This is accomplished by detecting and describing all possible equilibria, and analyzing the strategies that may lead to the victory of the aggressive population. Techniques typical of two-dimensional dynamical systems are used, such as asymptotic behaviors regulated by the Poincaré–Bendixson Theorem.A New Lotka-Volterra Model of Competition With Strategic Aggression will appeal to researchers and students studying population dynamics and dynamical systems, particularly those interested in the cross section between mathematics and ecology.
