Synopsis

The distribution of the eigenvalues of differential operators has long fascinated mathematicians. Recent advances have shed new light on classical problems in this area, and this book presents a fresh approach, largely based on the results of the authors. The emphasis here is on a topic of central importance in analysis, namely the relationship between i) function spaces on Euclidean n-space and on domains; ii) entropy numbers in quasi-Banach spaces; and iii) the distribution of the eigenvalues of degenerate elliptic (pseudo) differential operators. The treatment is largely self-contained and accessible to nonspecialists.

About this title

From the Back Cover

The distribution of the eigenvalues of differential operators has long fascinated mathematicians. Recent advances have shed new light upon classical problems in this area, and this book presents a fresh approach, largely based upon the results of the authors. The emphasis here is on a topic of central importance in analysis, namely the relationship between (i) function spaces on Euclidean n-space and on domains, (ii) entropy numbers in quasi-Banach spaces, and (iii) the distribution of the eigenvalues of degenerate elliptic (pseudo)differential operators. The treatment is largely self-contained and accessible to non-specialists. Both experts and newcomers alike will welcome this unique exposition.
