Nonlinear Elliptic and Parabolic Problems: Regular and Irregular Solutions of Stationary and Evolution Problems (De Gruyter Series in Nonlinear Analysis & Applications)

This monograph presents results on the existence, nonexistence, and qualitative properties of solutions for different classes of nonlinear stationary and evolution equations and inequalities. The authors deal with global, singular, very singular, weak, entropy, and other types of solutions of the considered problems. The book is targeted to researchers and post-graduate students that specialize in the field of the theory of nonlinear PDE’s.

1. Doctor of Science in Physics and Mathematics, Professor Andrej A. Kon’kov works at Lomonosov Moscow State University.

He also carried out research on the stabilization of solutions of nonlinear evolution problems. Professor Andrej A. Kon’kov took part in three international INTAS research projects. He has repeatedly spoken at international mathematical conferences. His papers were published in the well-known mathematical journals such as Nonlinear Analysis, Journal of Mathematical Analysis, Advanced Nonlinear Studies, Nonlinearity, Annali di Matematica Pura ed Applicata.

2. Doctor of Science in Physics and Mathematics, Professor Alexander A. Kovalevsky works at Krasovskii Institute of Mathematics and Mechanics of the Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences and holds the position of Leading Researcher in the Department of Equations of Mathematical Physics. He is also a professor in the Department of Mathematical Analysis of the Ural Federal University. His research interests focus on the homogenization theory for nonlinear partial differential equations and variational inequalities, the study of Г-convergence of integral functionals and G-convergence of nonlinear differential operators with variable domain of definition, and the investigation of the existence and properties of solutions for different classes of nonlinear elliptic equations and variational inequalities with L-data. Professor Alexander A. Kovalevsky took part in three international INTAS research projects. He also participated in the International Congress of Mathematicians (Zurich, Switzerland, 1994), the Second European Congress of Mathematics (Budapest, Hungary, 1996), and in numerous international mathematical conferences in Russia, France, and Italy. In recent years, he has published in well-known journals such as NonlinearAnalysis, Annali di Matematica Pura ed Applicata, Nonlinear Differential Equations and Applications, Results in Mathematics, and Ricerche di Matematica.
