Topological Methods for Delay and Ordinary Differential Equations: With Applications to Continuum Mechanics
暫譯: 延遲與常微分方程的拓撲方法：及其在連續介質力學中的應用

This volume explores the application of topological techniques in the study of delay and ordinary differential equations with a particular focus on continuum mechanics. Chapters, written by internationally recognized researchers in the field, present results on problems of existence, multiplicity localization, bifurcation of solutions, and more. Topological methods are used throughout, including degree theory, fixed point index theory, and classical and recent fixed point theorems. A wide variety of applications to continuum mechanics are provided as well, such as chemostats, non-Newtonian fluid flow, and flows in phase space. Topological Methods for Delay and Ordinary Differential Equations will be a valuable resource for researchers interested in differential equations, functional analysis, topology, and the applied sciences.
