At the summer school in Pisa in September 1996, Luigi Ambrosio and Norman Dancer each gave a course on the geometric problem of evolution of a surface by mean curvature, and degree theory with applications to PDEs respectively. This self-contained presentation accessible to PhD students bridged the gap between standard courses and advanced research on these topics. The resulting book is divided accordingly into 2 parts, and neatly illustrates the 2-way interaction of problems and methods. Each of the courses is augmented and complemented by additional short chapters by other authors describing current research problems and results.

Reviews for Calculus of Variations and Partial Differential Equations: Topics on Geometrical Evolution Problems and Degree Theory

""Fazit: Dies ist kein typischer Proccedingsband, sondern stellt - insbesondere wegen der Lecture Notes von Dancer und vor allem wegen der von Ambrosio - ... eine wichtige Bereicherung der anspruchsvollen Forschungsliteratur auf den Gebieten Variationsrechnung und partielle Differentialgleichungen dar. Es ist erfreulich, dass hier allerneueste Forschungsergebnisse so schnell Eingang - abgesehen von Zeitschriften - in die Literatur gefunden haben. Fur Interessierte eine lohnenswerte Anschaffung!""
