Series In Real Analysis – serie

The Denjoy integral has not found many applications in analysis. Such applications as have been made are due mainly to authors of this book. The original papers are in difficult to obtain Soviet journals. This translation makes this important work available to wider audience and shows for the first time in English that the Denjoy integral has applications in both real and complex analysis. In addition, the longest chapter of the book is devoted to the theory of a two dimensional extension of the wide Denjoy integral. The book is a self contained treatment of the integral in one and two dimensions, together with details of most known applications of these integrals to analysis, both real and complex.

With an addendum by Wu Congxin (Harbin Institute of Technology)Linear Functional Analysis resulted from a series of lectures Orlicz gave in Beijing, China, 1958. The orignal edition was published in Chinese in 1963. It contains all the major theorems that would normally appear in a modern text, the results of special interest to the Polish school, and others which are not easily available elsewhere. Orlicz provided in this book some rare insight and motivation in the subject which was initiated by the Polish school. An addendum to some recent results in Orlicz spaces is included.

The contemporary approach of J Kurzweil and R Henstock to the Perron integral is applied to the theory of ordinary differential equations in this book. It focuses mainly on the problems of continuous dependence on parameters for ordinary differential equations. For this purpose, a generalized form of the integral based on integral sums is defined. The theory of generalized differential equations based on this integral is then used, for example, to cover differential equations with impulses or measure differential equations. Solutions of generalized differential equations are found to be functions of bounded variations.The book may be used for a special undergraduate course in mathematics or as a postgraduate text. As there are currently no other special research monographs or textbooks on this topic in English, this book is an invaluable reference text for those interested in this field.

This monograph aims to fill a void by making available a source book which first systematically describes all the available uniqueness and nonuniqueness criteria for ordinary differential equations, and compares and contrasts the merits of these criteria, and second, discusses open problems and offers some directions towards possible solutions.

Henstock-Kurzweil (HK) integration, which is based on integral sums, can be obtained by an inconspicuous change in the definition of Riemann integration. It is an extension of Lebesgue integration and there exists an HK-integrable function f such that its absolute value |f| is not HK-integrable. In this book HK integration is treated only on compact one-dimensional intervals.The set of convergent sequences of HK-integrable functions is singled out by an elementary convergence theorem. The concept of convergent sequences is transferred to the set P of primitives of HK-integrable functions; these convergent sequences of functions from P are called E-convergent. The main results: there exists a topology U on P such that (1) (P,U) is a topological vector space, (2) (P,U) is complete, and (3) every E-convergent sequence is convergent in (P,U). On the other hand, there is no topology U fulfilling (2), (3) and (P,U) being a locally convex space.

The main topics of this book are convergence and topologization. Integration on a compact interval on the real line is treated with Riemannian sums for various integration bases. General results are specified to a spectrum of integrations, including Lebesgue integration, the Denjoy integration in the restricted sense, the integrations introduced by Pfeffer and by Bongiorno, and many others. Morever, some relations between integration and differentiation are made clear.The book is self-contained. It is of interest to specialists in the field of real functions, and it can also be read by students, since only the basics of mathematical analysis and vector spaces are required.

This book presents a historical development of the integration theories of Riemann, Lebesgue, Henstock-Kurzweil, and McShane, showing how new theories of integration were developed to solve problems that earlier theories could not handle. It develops the basic properties of each integral in detail and provides comparisons of the different integrals. The chapters covering each integral are essentially independent and can be used separately in teaching a portion of an introductory course on real analysis. There is a sufficient supply of exercises to make the book useful as a textbook.

The relatively new concepts of the Henstock-Kurzweil and McShane integrals based on Riemann type sums are an interesting challenge in the study of integration of Banach space-valued functions. This timely book presents an overview of the concepts developed and results achieved during the past 15 years. The Henstock-Kurzweil and McShane integrals play the central role in the book. Various forms of the integration are introduced and compared from the viewpoint of their generality. Functional analysis is the main tool for presenting the theory of summation gauge integrals.

This book offers to the reader a self-contained treatment and systematic exposition of the real-valued theory of a nonabsolute integral on measure spaces. It is an introductory textbook to Henstock-Kurzweil type integrals defined on abstract spaces. It contains both classical and original results that are accessible to a large class of readers.It is widely acknowledged that the biggest difficulty in defining a Henstock-Kurzweil integral beyond Euclidean spaces is the definition of a set of measurable sets which will play the role of "intervals" in the abstract setting. In this book the author shows a creative and innovative way of defining "intervals" in measure spaces, and prove many interesting and important results including the well-known Radon-Nikodým theorem.

This book provides a systematic treatment of the Volterra integral equation by means of a modern integration theory which extends considerably the field of differential equations. It contains many new concepts and results in the framework of a unifying theory. In particular, this new approach is suitable in situations where fast oscillations occur.

The Henstock-Kurzweil integral, which is also known as the generalized Riemann integral, arose from a slight modification of the classical Riemann integral more than 50 years ago. This relatively new integral is known to be equivalent to the classical Perron integral; in particular, it includes the powerful Lebesgue integral. This book presents an introduction of the multiple Henstock-Kurzweil integral. Along with the classical results, this book contains some recent developments connected with measures, multiple integration by parts, and multiple Fourier series. The book can be understood with a prerequisite of advanced calculus.

The book uses classical problems to motivate a historical development of the integration theories of Riemann, Lebesgue, Henstock-Kurzweil and McShane, showing how new theories of integration were developed to solve problems that earlier integration theories could not handle. It develops the basic properties of each integral in detail and provides comparisons of the different integrals. The chapters covering each integral are essentially independent and could be used separately in teaching a portion of an introductory real analysis course. There is a sufficient supply of exercises to make this book useful as a textbook.

The book is primarily devoted to the Kurzweil-Stieltjes integral and its applications in functional analysis, theory of distributions, generalized elementary functions, as well as various kinds of generalized differential equations, including dynamic equations on time scales. It continues the research that was paved out by some of the previous volumes in the Series in Real Analysis. Moreover, it presents results in a thoroughly updated form and, simultaneously, it is written in a widely understandable way, so that it can be used as a textbook for advanced university or PhD courses covering the theory of integration or differential equations.

This is the first book that presents the theory of stochastic integral using the generalized Riemann approach. Readers who are familiar with undergraduate calculus and want to have an easy access to the theory of stochastic integral will find most of this book pleasantly readable, especially the first four chapters. The references to the theory of classical stochastic integral and stochastic processes are also included for the convenience of readers who are familiar with the measure theoretic approach.
