Evolution Equations, Semigroups and Functional Analysis, Softcover reprint of the original 1st ed. 2002 In Memory of Brunello Terreni Progress in Nonlinear Differential Equations and Their Applications Series, Vol. 50

The present volume is dedicated to the memory of Brunello Terreni. His mathematical interests are refelcted in 20 expository articles written by distinguished mathematicians. The unifying theme of the articles is evolution equations and functional analysis, which is presented in various and diverse forms: parabolic equations, semigroups, stochastic evolution, optimal control, existence, uniqueness and regularity of solutions, inverse problems as well as applications.
