This book provides a concise introduction to one-parameter semigroups of linear operators on Banach spaces, covering essential theories and theorems. It aims to equip students and researchers with foundational knowledge for applications in various mathematical fields, while streamlining complex concepts for easier understanding.
The book delves into the linguistic intricacies of naming in Tolkien's works, moving beyond the typical focus on prominent characters and locations. It emphasizes a comprehensive examination of both personal and place names, challenging the common practice of limiting detailed analysis to Elvish names. This exploration reveals the depth and significance of Tolkien's naming conventions, highlighting their impact on the overall narrative and world-building in his literary universe.
This book explores the theory of strongly continuous one-parameter semigroups of linear operators. A special feature of the text is an unusually wide range of applications such as to ordinary and partial differential operators, to delay and Volterra equations, and to control theory. Also, the book places an emphasis on philosophical motivation and the historical background.
