Progress in Analysis : proceedings of the 8th Congress of the International Society for Analysis, its Applications, and Computation. Moscow, August 22–27, 2011. Vol. 2.

The 8th Congress of the International Society for Analysis, its Applications, and Computation (ISAAC) was organized by Peoples’ Friendship University of Russia, Division of Mathematics of the Russian Academy of Sciences, V. A. Steklov Institute of Mathematics of Russian Academy of Sciences and V. M. Lomonosov Moscow State University, and took place at Peoples’ Friendship University of Russia, Moscow, through 22-27 August 2011. The programme of the Congress included most of the topics of contemporary mathematical analysis, in particular, real, functional, complex analysis, operator theory, theory of ordinary differential equations, theory of partial differential equations, nonlinear analysis, optimization theory, variational analysis, approximation theory, applications of analysis (inverse problems, functional and difference equations, mathematics in medicine, stochastic analysis), teaching analysis at universities and schools, history of analysis. Vol. 2 contains papers by the participants of Session III (Partial differential equations), Session IV (Applied analysis), and of Session V (Nonlinear analysis, extremal problems, approximation theory, and applications). This volume would be of interest for mathematicians working in all main branches of contemporary mathematical analysis and its applications. Prepared by the Organizing Committee of the 8th Congress of the ISAAC.
