Infos

The area of nonstrictly hyperbolic conservation laws is emerging as an important field, not only because it developed from applications of current interest, such as reservoir simulation, visco-elasticity, and multiphase flow, but also because the subject raises interesting mathematical questions of well-posedness, the structure of solutions, and admissibility criteria for weak solutions. The papers in this collection are based on talks presented at an AMS Special Session, held in Anaheim, California, in January 1985. Requiring some background in conservation laws, this collection will be of interest to research mathematicians working in the field of nonstrictly hyperbolic partial differential equations, as well as students who are learning the area and are looking for new applications and challenging problems in this field. The collection provides an overview of the field, examples of applications, descriptions of available techniques, and a bibliography of the literature.
