The Maximum Principle (Progress in Nonlinear Differential Equations and Their Applications, #73) (Progress in Nonlinear Differential Equations and Their Appli)

by Patrizia Pucci and J. B. Serrin

Maximum principles are bedrock results in the theory of second order elliptic equations. This principle, simple enough in essence, lends itself to a quite remarkable number of subtle uses when combined appropriately with other notions. Intended for a wide audience, the book provides a clear and comprehensive explanation of the various maximum principles available in elliptic theory, from their beginning for linear equations to recent work on nonlinear and singular equations.
