    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Short description:

    The idea of extending the notion of degree to non-smooth functions came about as a result of developments in non-linear analysis. In this book Irene Fonseca and Wilfrid Gangbo consider several aspects of degree theory as applied to continuous finctions and in particular to Sobolev functions, an area in which their own recent work has won them recognition. Existing texts on degree theory approach the subject from an algebraic or topological viewpoint but in this account the emphasis is on analysis. The first chapters should be accessible to graduate students and the book as a whole provides a useful reference on recent developments in degree theory, bringing together many results that currently exist only in journals.

    Long description:

    In this book we study the degree theory and some of its applications in analysis. It focuses on the recent developments of this theory for Sobolev functions, which distinguishes this book from the currently available literature. We begin with a thorough study of topological degree for continuous functions. The contents of the book include: degree theory for continuous functions, the multiplication theorem, Hopf`s theorem, Brower`s fixed point theorem, odd mappings, Jordan`s separation theorem. Following a brief review of measure theory and Sobolev functions and study local invertibility of Sobolev functions. These results are put to use in the study variational principles in nonlinear elasticity. The Leray-Schauder degree in infinite dimensional spaces is exploited to obtain fixed point theorems. We end the book by illustrating several applications of the degree in the theories of ordinary differential equations and partial differential equations.

    The book brings together many results previously to be found only in journals.
