They can be applied to the modeling and solving of a wide range of combinatorial applications such as planning, scheduling and resource sharing in a variety of practical domains such as transportation, production, supply-chains, network management and human resource management. In this book we study new techniques for solving constraint satisfaction problems, with a special focus on solution adaptation applied to agent reasoning. 158 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -In this book invariant probabilities for a large class of discrete-time homogeneous Markov processes known as Feller processes are discussed. These Feller processes appear in the study of iterated function systems with probabilities, convolution operators, certain time series, etc. Rather than dealing with the processes, the transition probabilities and the operators associated with these processes are studied.Main features:- an ergodic decomposition which is a 'reference system' for dealing with ergodic measures- 'formulas' for the supports of invariant probability measures, some of which can be used to obtain algorithms for the graphical display of these supports- helps to gain a better understanding of the structure of Markov-Feller operators, and, implicitly, of the discrete-time homogeneous Feller processes- special efforts to attract newcomers to the theory of Markov processes in general, and to the topics covered in particular- most of the results are new and deal with topics of intense research interest. 113 pp. Englisch.

The International Conference on Trends in Partial Di erential Equations of th Mathematical Physics was held on the occasion of his 70 birthday in Obidos (Portugal), from June 7 to 10, 2003. It was an organization of the Centro de Matem atica e Aplica c oes Fundamentais da Universidade Lisboa , in collaboration with the Centro de Matem atica da Universidade de Coimbra , the Centro de Matem atica Aplicada do IST/Universidade T ecnica de Lisboa , the Centro de Matem atica da Universidade da Beira Interior ,from Portugal,and with the L- oratory of Mathematical Physics of the St.Petersburg Department of the Steklov Institute of Mathematics from Russia. The conference consisted of thirty eight invited and contributed lectures and gathered,inthecharminganduniquemedievaltownofObidos,aboutsixtypart- ipants from fteen countries, namely USA, Switzerland, Spain, Russia, Portugal, Poland, Lithuania, Korea, Japan, Italy, Germany, France, Canada, Australia and Argentina.Severalcolleaguesgaveusahelpinghandintheorganizationofthec- ference. We are thankful to all of them, and in particular to Stanislav Antontsev, Anvarbek Meirmanov and Ad elia Sequeira, that integrated also the Organizing Committee.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Quadrature domains were singled out about 30 years ago by D. Aharonov and H.S. Shapiro in connection with an extremal problem in function theory. Since then, a series of coincidental discoveries put this class of planar domains at the center of crossroads of several quite independent mathematical theories, e.g., potential theory, Riemann surfaces, inverse problems, holomorphic partial differential equations, fluid mechanics, operator theory. The volume is devoted to recent advances in the theory of quadrature domains, illustrating well the multi-facet aspects of their nature. The book contains a large collection of open problems pertaining to the general theme of quadrature domains. 277 pp. Englisch.
