Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book challenges conventions of hyperbolic conservation laws with a focus on systems of two partial differential equations. It explores key concepts such as the characteristic curves and shock waves found within these nonlinear equations. The author presents the theory, developed by Glimm and Lax, with a careful balance of mathematical detail and intuitive understanding. The book offers a detailed analysis of interactions between characteristics and shock waves using the newly established Glimm scheme. Through this scheme, the author proves that solutions with arbitrarily small initial data exist, disproving the previously held belief that only large data values could yield meaningful solutions. The ideas and insights presented in this book have significantly contributed to our understanding of nonlinear conservation laws This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
