    Questo breve libro propone con uno spirito via via d¿immagine storiografica e di dettaglio matematico, la nascita e l¿evoluzione del concetto di curvatura: le sue origini ancestrali nella meccanica, nell¿astronomia, nella geodesia, e infine, chiaramente nella geometria. Gli aspetti tecnici, a volte estremamente semplici, altre volte complessi, sono sempre accompagnati da spiegazioni che si sperano esaurienti.È ben noto che su entrambi i versanti culturali proposti nel libro, molto si è scritto e ad altissimo livello; qui, c¿è un tentativo di sintesi, della storiografia e della matematica sul tema della curvatura. Il racconto del filo che intercorre tra Huygens, Gauss, Riemann, Christoffel, Ricci Curbastro, Levi-Civita e infine Einstein, è stato sicuramente già ben proposto sul versante puramente storico o in quello prettamente matematico: è una speranza che la narrazione qui presentata, con questi punti di vista intrecciati, sia infine soddisfacente. Il tentativo andava fatto. L¿augurio forte è che gli argomenti narrati risultino coinvolgenti per il lettore, spingendolo ad esplorare autonomamente altri aspetti magari nascosti nelle pieghe della nozione di curvatura e del mondo che ci vive attorno. Il volume muove inizialmente dal racconto di qualche frammento di cosmologia antica e medioevale. Tutto ciò è solo apparentemente estraneo al corpo vivo della materia: ritroveremo per esempio che la concezione cosmologica di Dante, riassunta qui matematicamente, propose un universo come un¿ipersfera 3-dimensionale che, quasi incidentalmente, risulterà proprio il modello cosmologico offerto da Einstein nel 1917 per il suo universo chiuso e statico. Ed è proprio la curvatura che domina quella scena, oggetto matematico protagonista della teoria della relatività generale einsteniana. I personaggi prima elencati vengono comunque narrati anche nelle loro salienti vicende umane, a volte altamente drammatiche, come accadde per esempio per Riemann e TullioLevi-Civita. In un certo senso, la storia della curvatura accompagna la storia dell¿umanità.Benché inizialmente sia stato generato da un disegno didattico, il volume è indirizzato ad un pubblico non necessariamente studentesco, con una cultura scientifica di base.

    This book serves as a concise textbook for students in an advanced undergraduate or first-year graduate course in various disciplines such as applied mathematics, control, and engineering, who want to understand the modern standard of numerical methods of ordinary and delay differential equations. Experts in the same fields can also learn about the recent developments in numerical analysis of such differential systems. Ordinary differential equations (ODEs) provide a strong mathematical tool to express a wide variety of phenomena in science and engineering. Along with its own significance, one of the powerful directions toward which ODEs extend is to incorporate an unknown function with delayed argument. This is called delay differential equations (DDEs), which often appear in mathematical modelling of biology, demography, epidemiology, and control theory. In some cases, the solution of a differential equation can be obtained by algebraic combinations of known mathematical functions. In many practical cases, however, such a solution is quite difficult or unavailable, and numerical approximations are called for. Modern development of computers accelerates the situation and, moreover, launches more possibilities of numerical means. Henceforth, the knowledge and expertise of the numerical solution of differential equations becomes a requirement in broad areas of science and engineering.One might think that a well-organized software package such as MATLAB serves much the same solution. In a sense, this is true; but it must be kept in mind that blind employment of software packages misleads the user. The gist of numerical solution of differential equations still must be learned. The present book is intended to provide the essence of numerical solutions of ordinary differential equations as well as of delay differential equations. Particularly, the authors noted that there are still few concise textbooks of delay differential equations, and then they set about filling the gap through descriptions as transparent as possible. Major algorithms of numerical solution are clearly described in this book. The stability of solutions of ODEs and DDEs is crucial as well. The book introduces the asymptotic stability of analytical and numerical solutions and provides a practical way to analyze their stability by employing a theory of complex functions.

    This book aims at introducing students into the modern analytical foundations to treat problems and situations in the Calculus of Variations solidly and rigorously. Since no background is taken for granted or assumed, as the textbook pretends to be self-contained, areas like basic Functional Analysis and Sobolev spaces are studied to the point that chapters devoted to these topics can be utilized by themselves as an introduction to these important parts of Analysis. The material in this regard has been selected to serve the needs of classical variational problems, leaving broader treatments for more advanced and specialized courses in those areas. It should not be forgotten that problems in the Calculus of Variations historically played a crucial role in pushing Functional Analysis as a discipline on its own right. The style is intentionally didactic. After a first general chapter to place optimization problems in infinite-dimensional spaces in perspective, the first part of the book focuses on the initial important concepts in Functional Analysis and introduces Sobolev spaces in dimension one as a preliminary, simpler case (much in the same way as in the successful book of H. Brezis). Once the analytical framework is covered, one-dimensional variational problems are examined in detail including numerous examples and exercises. The second part dwells, again as a first-round, on another important chapter of Functional Analysis that students should be exposed to, and that eventually will find some applications in subsequent chapters. The first chapter of this part examines continuous operators and the important principles associated with mappings between functional spaces; and another one focuses on compact operators and their fundamental and remarkable properties for Analysis. Finally, the third part advances to multi-dimensional Sobolev spaces and the corresponding problems in the Calculus of Variations. In this setting, problems become much more involved and, for this same reason, much more interesting and appealing. In particular, the final chapter dives into a number of advanced topics, some of which reflect a personal taste. Other possibilities stressing other kinds of problems are possible. In summary, the text pretends to help students with their first exposure to the modern calculus of variations and the analytical foundation associated with it. In particular, it covers an extended introduction to basic functional analysis and to Sobolev spaces. The tone of the text and the set of proposed exercises will facilitate progressive understanding until the need for further challenges beyond the topics addressed here will push students to more advanced horizons.
