Advances in Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations and Related Areas A Volume in Honor of Professor Xiaqi Ding

This volume is a collection of research papers on nonlinear partial differential equations and related areas, representing many aspects of the most recent developments in these important areas. In particular, the following are included: nonlinear conservation laws, semilinear elliptic equations, nonlinear hyperbolic equations, nonlinear parabolic equations, singular limit problems, and analysis of exact and numerical solutions. Important areas such as numerical analysis, relaxation theory, multiphase theory, kinetic theory, combustion theory, dynamical systems, and quantum field theory are also covered.
