Publisher's Synopsis
This volume arises from the tenth Dundee Conference on Ordinary and Partial Differential Equations, held at the University of Dundee in July 1988. It contains papers by a number of experts. Special emphasis is given to nonlinear differential equations which assist in the understanding of nonlinear wave propagation, continuum mechanics and biology. The topics covered include, reaction-diffusion equations, dynamical systems, waves in excitable media, bifurcation including pattern formation and non-linear boundary value problems, limit cycles in polynomial systems and Hilbert's 16-th, eigenvalue problems, the Weyl conjecture and fractal domains, Wiener-Hopf methods in scattering theory and problems in elasticity.;It is aimed at graduate students and research workers in the theory of ordinary and partial differential equations, non-linear analysis, applied mathematics and mathematical biology.
