Handbook of Differential Equations: Ordinary Differential Equations
Handbook of Differential Equations: Ordinary Differential Equations Series

This handbook is the second volume in a series devoted to self contained and up-to-date surveys in the theory of ordinary differential equations, writtenby leading researchers in the area. All contributors have made an additional effort to achieve readability for mathematicians and scientists from other related fields, in order to make the chapters of the volume accessible to a wide audience.

1. Optimal Control of Ordinary Differential Equations, (V. Barbu, C. Lefter).

2. Hamiltonian Systems: Periodic and Homoclinic Solutions by Variational Methods, (T. Bartsch, A. Szulkin) .

3. Differential Equations on Closed Sets (O. Carja, I.I. Vrabie) .

4. Monotone Dynamical Systems (M.W. Hirsch, H. Smith) .

5. Planar Periodic Systems of Population Dynamics (J. Lopez-Gomez) .

6. Nonlocal Initial and Boundary Value Problems: a survey (S.K. Ntouyas).

Mathematicians, researchers, (post-) graduate students

. Six chapters covering a variety of problems in ordinary differential equations. . Both, pure mathematical research and real word applications are reflected. Written by leading researchers in the area.
