This book develops the theory of global attractors for a class of parabolic PDEs that includes reaction-diffusion equations and the Navier-Stokes equations, two examples that are treated in detail. A lengthy chapter on Sobolev spaces provides the framework that allows a rigorous treatment of existence and uniqueness of solutions for both linear time-independent problems (Poisson's equation) and the nonlinear evolution equations which generate the infinite-dimensional dynamical systemss of the title. Attention then switches to the global attractor, a finite-dimensional subset of the infinite-dimensional phase space which determines the asymptotic dynamics. In particular, the concluding chapters investigate in what sense the dynamics restricted to the attractor are themselves "finite-dimensional." The book is intended as a didactic text for first year graduates, and assumes only a basic knowledge of Banach and Hilbert spaces, and a working understanding of the Lebesgue integral.

This book treats the theory of global attractors, a recent development in the theory of partial differential equations, in a way that also includes much of the traditional elements of the subject. As such it gives a quick but directed introduction to some fundamental concepts, and by the end proceeds to current research problems. Since the subject is relatively new, this is the first book to attempt to treat these various topics in a unified and didactic way. It is intended to be suitable for first year graduate students.
"The book is written clearly and concisely. It is well structured, and the material is presented in a rigorous, coherent fashion...[it] constitutes an excellent resource for researchers and advanced graduate students in applied mathematics, dynamical systems, nonlinear dynamics, and computational mechanics. Its acquisition by libraries is strongly recommended." Applied Mechanics Reviews
