About this title

Synopsis

The title of the book is a perfect way to synthesize the point of view of V- cenzo Capasso (VK) about the role played by mathematics in nature and all human activities, as mentioned by Willi J¨ ager in the Introduction. As VK mentioned in one of his speeches, “it is important that our scienti?c c- munity appreciates the importance of theory and mathematics to face the enormouschallengeswhicharisefromtheemerging?eldsofBiologyandMe- cine, Industry and Economics to improve the quality of Life. ” His enthusiasm and new ideas have brought him in this challenging mission. By transferring methods and tools from one ?eld to another, by learning novel mathem- ical methods and ideas from the observation of real world phenomena and behavior, and by approaching real industrial problems, he has accepted to play a fundamental role in both the Italian and European community in the establishment and reinforcement of communication channels between Ac- emia (methods) and Industry (applications), being himself a driving force of the scienti?c and technological progress that we are observing in our daily life. This books collects the proceedings of the workshop Math Everywhere: Deterministic and Stochastic Modelling in Biomedicine, Economics and - dustry which took place in Milano, Italy in the period September 4–6, 2005, and was organized in honor of the 60th birthday of Vincenzo Capasso (VK).

From the Back Cover

These proceedings are reporting on the conference ''Math Everywhere", a successful event celebrating a leading scientist, promoting ideas he pursued and sharing the open atmosphere he is known for.  The areas of the contributions are the following 

- Deterministic and Stochastic Systems.

- Mathematical Problems in Biology, Medicine and Ecology.

- Mathematical Problems in Industry and Economics.
