While not all-encompassing, these topics represent major approaches to the theory of partial differential equations and systems, and should be of significant interest to graduate students and researchers. Two appendices have been included to provide a good gauge of the prerequisites for this book and make it reasonably self-contained. A notable strength of the book is that it contains a large number of substantial examples. Exercises for the reader are also included. Therefore, this book is suitable as a textbook for graduate students who have already had an introductory course on PDE and some familiarity with functional analysis and nonlinear functional analysis, and as a reference for researchers. 0aDifferential equations. 0aFunctional analysis. 0aBiomathematics. 0aPopulation biology.14aDifferential Equations.24aFunctional Analysis.24aMathematical and Computational Biology.24aPopulation Dynamics.1 aPang, Peter Y.
