A unified approach to boundary value problems.9780898716511 A unified approach to boundary value problems In mathematics, in the field of differential equations, a boundary value problem is a differential equation together with a set of additional restraints, called the boundary conditions. . Fokas, Athanassios S. SIAM 2008 336 pages $75.00 Paperback CBMS-NSF regional conference series in applied mathematics; 78 QA379 Fokas (nonlinear A system in which the output is not a uniform relationship to the input. nonlinear - (Scientific computation) A property of a system whose output is not proportional to its input. mathematical sciences, U. of Cambridge) introduced a new method for analyzing initial-boundary value problems for integrable nonlinear evolution partial differential equations partial differential equation In mathematics, an equation that contains partial derivatives, expressing a process of change that depends on more than one independent variable. in 1997. Since then, he has discovered that the method also yields novel integral representations for linear evolution equations, and here describes how it does that, and also how, for nonlinear varieties, representations can be formulated for·mu·late tr.v. for·mu·lat·ed, for·mu·lat·ing, for·mu·lates 1. a. To state as or reduce to a formula. b. To express in systematic terms or concepts. c. in the complex k-plane. The treatment is suitable for a graduate or advanced undergraduate course.
