Summary:
The well-known contributors to this volume focus on the mathematical theory of phase transitions in solids and fluids, including recent advances in the theory of systems of nonlinear partial differential equations and in the calculus of variations. Related problems in mechanics, mathematical physics, and optimization are also explored. The book offers a thorough and inclusive summary of developments--and new problems--in this rapidly expanding field.
