Introduction to the Geometrical Analysis of Vector Fields, An: With Applications to Maximum Principles and Lie Groups - Paperback

by Stefano Biagi (Author), Andrea Bonfiglioli (Author)

This book provides the reader with a gentle path through the multifaceted theory of vector fields, starting from the definitions and the basic properties of vector fields and flows, and ending with some of their countless applications, in the framework of what is nowadays called Geometrical Analysis. Once the background material is established, the applications mainly deal with the following meaningful settings:
