This area has experienced substantial progress in very recent years thanks to the introduction of new techniques, in particular the front tracking algorithm and the semigroup approach. These techniques provide a solution to the long standing open problems of uniqueness and stability of entropy weak solutions. This monograph is the first to present a comprehensive account of these new, fundamental advances, mainly obtained by the author together with several collaborators. It also includes a detailed analysis of the stability and convergence of the front tracking algorithm. The book is addressed to graduate students as well as researchers. Both the elementary and the more advanced material are carefully explained, helping the reader's visual intuition with over 70 figures. A set of problems, with varying difficulty, is given at the end of each chapter. These exercises are designed to verify and expand a student's understanding of the concepts and techniques previously discussed. For researchers, this book will provide an indispensable reference for the state of the art, in the field of hyperbolic systems of conservation laws. The last chapter contains a large, up to date list of references, preceded by extensive bibliographical notes.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 242mmItem Length: 160mmItem Width: 18mmItem Weight: 505gAuthor: Alberto BressanGenre: Science Nature & MathBook Series: Oxford Lecture Series in Mathematics and Its ApplicationsType: Mathematical AnalysisRelease Year: 2000 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
