Description

In this book, Professor Oleinik highlights her work in the area of partial differential equations. The book is divided into two parts: the first is devoted to the study of the asymptotic behavior at infinity of solutions of a class of nonlinear second order elliptic equations in unbounded and, in particular, cylindrical domains. The second contains the most recent results of the author in the theory of homogenization of partial differential equations and is concerned with questions about partially perforated domains and of solutions with rapidly alternating types of boundary conditions. Many of the results here have not appeared in book form before, and it sheds new light on the subject, raising many new ideas and open problems.
