of nonlocal functionals and 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. for functional differential equations differential equation

Mathematical statement that contains one or more derivatives. It states a relationship involving the rates of change of continuously changing quantities modeled by functions. .

After exploring initial value problems for functional differential equations, this monograph studies symmetrical and asymmetrical variational problems for nonlocal functionals, which are integrals with the integrand in·te·grand
n.
A function to be integrated.

[From Latin integrandus, gerundive of integr depending on the unknown function at different values of the argument. Later chapters develop approximate methods of solving boundary value problems for functional differential equations and direct methods of solving variational problems for nonlocal functionals. The work was funded by the Russian Foundation of Basic Research and St. Petersburg State University.
