Introduction to Functional Differential Equations

Front Cover
Springer-Verlag, 1993 - Mathematics - 447 pages
Builds on an earlier work by J. Hale, Theory of Functional Differential Equations, 1977. Approximately one-third of the material is left intact. A completely new presentation of linear systems for retarded and neutral functional differential equations is given. The theory of dissipative systems and global attractors is completely redone as well as the invariant manifold theory near equilibrium points and periodic orbits. A more complete theory of neutral equations is presented, and a new guide to active topics of research is added. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
