About this ebook

This volume covers some of the most seminal research in the areas of mathematical analysis and numerical computation for nonlinear phenomena. Collected from the international conference held in honor of Professor Yoshikazu Giga’s 60th birthday, the featured research papers and survey articles discuss partial differential equations related to fluid mechanics, electromagnetism, surface diffusion, and evolving interfaces. Specific focus is placed on topics such as the solvability of the Navier-Stokes equations and the regularity, stability, and symmetry of their solutions, analysis of a living fluid, stochastic effects and numerics for Maxwell’s equations, nonlinear heat equations in critical spaces, viscosity solutions describing various kinds of interfaces, numerics for evolving interfaces, and a hyperbolic obstacle problem. Also included in this volume are an introduction of Yoshikazu Giga’s extensive academic career and a long list of his published work. Students and researchers in mathematical analysis and computation will find interest in this volume on theoretical study for nonlinear phenomena.


About the author

Shuichi Jimbo is a Professor of Applied Mathematics in the Department of Mathematics of Hokkaido University. The main subjects of his research are spectral analysis, domain deformation, singular perturbation, and the Ginzburg-Landau equation.
Yasunori Maekawa is an Associate Professor of the Mathematical Institute of Tohoku University. His research is focused on partial differential equations and their relation to fluid dynamics, such as the Navier-Stokes equations and the vorticity equations, and particularly in various coherent structures appearing in high Reynolds number flows. His most recent research is on the formation of fine vortex tubes in turbulent flows and the production/dissipation of vorticity fields around the boundary of fluid domains.
