Cover of Nonlocal and Nonlinear Diffusions and Interactions: New Methods and Directions
Presenting a selection of topics in the area of nonlocal and nonlinear diffusions, this book places a particular emphasis on new emerging subjects such as nonlocal operators in stationary and evolutionary problems and their applications, swarming models and applications to biology and mathematical physics, and nonlocal variational problems. The authors are some of the most well-known mathematicians in this innovative field, which is presently undergoing rapid development. The intended audience includes experts in elliptic and parabolic equations who are interested in extending their expertise to the nonlinear setting, as well as Ph.D. or postdoctoral students who want to enter into the most promising research topics in the field.

Cover of Partial Differential Equations and Geometric Measure Theory

This book collects together lectures by some of the leaders in the field of partial differential equations and geometric measure theory.  It features a wide variety of research topics in which a crucial role is played by the interaction of fine analytic techniques and deep geometric observations, combining the intuitive and geometric aspects of mathematics with analytical ideas and variational methods.  The problems addressed are challenging and complex, and often require the use of several refined techniques to overcome the major difficulties encountered.  The lectures, given during the course "Partial Differential Equations and Geometric Measure Theory'' in Cetraro, June 2–7, 2014, should help to encourage further research in the area.  The enthusiasm of the speakers and the participants of this CIME course is reflected in the text.
