Synopsis

This volume is a collection of manscripts mainly originating from talks and lectures given at the Workshop on Recent Trends in Complex Methods for Par­ tial Differential Equations held from July 6 to 10, 1998 at the Middle East Technical University in Ankara, Turkey, sponsored by The Scientific and Tech­ nical Research Council of Turkey and the Middle East Technical University. This workshop is a continuation oftwo workshops from 1988 and 1993 at the In­ ternational Centre for Theoretical Physics in Trieste, Italy entitled Functional analytic Methods in Complex Analysis and Applications to Partial Differential Equations. Since classical complex analysis of one and several variables has a long tra­ dition it is of high level. But most of its basic problems are solved nowadays so that within the last few decades it has lost more and more attention. The area of complex and functional analytic methods in partial differential equations, however, is still a growing and flourishing field, in particular as these methods are not only applied. Whithin the framework of holomorphic functions but are also combined with properties of generalized analytic functions. This can be seen by the many books which recently were published in this field and also by the proceedings in this ISAAC series and the ISAAC congresses and workshops.

About this title

Synopsis

This book contains review chapters as well as state-of-the-art research chapters on topics ranging from complex elliptic first-order systems and second-order systems with regular or singular coefficients to overdetermined systems in several complex variables and partial differential equations in Clifford analysis. Different boundary value problems are studied. Applications to crack problems in elasticity theory to cusped bars, plates, and shells are given. Wavelet transformations are constructed in Banach spaces and used to identify complex analysis from the viewpoint of geometry. Fixed-point problems, even in abstract Banach spaces, are investigated with respect to an optimal domain of existence for the solution. It is suitable for researchers working in the field as well as scientists interested in the applications.
