One-Parameter Semigroups for Linear Evolution Equations

Graduate Texts in Mathematics #194

by Klaus-Jochen Engel, Rainer Nagel, S. Brendle (Contributor)

This book explores the theory of strongly continuous one-parameter semigroups of linear operators. A special feature of the text is an unusually wide range of applications such as to ordinary and partial differential operators, to delay and Volterra equations, and to control theory. Also, the book places an emphasis on philosophical motivation and the historical background.
