Bücher der Reihe Series in Contemporary Applied Mathematics

Composed of two parts: Mathematical and Numerical Analysis for Strongly Nonlinear Plasma Models and Exact Controllability and Observability for Quasilinear Hyperbolic Systems and Applications, this title presents the progress and results obtained in the domains related to both subjects.

This book is a collection of lecture notes for the LIASFMA Shanghai Summer School on "One-dimensional Hyperbolic Conservation Laws and Their Applications" which was held during August 16 to August 27, 2015 at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Shanghai, China. This summer school is one of the activities promoted by Sino-French International Associate Laboratory in Applied Mathematics (LIASFMA in short). LIASFMA was established jointly by eight institutions in China and France in 2014, which is aimed at providing a platform for some of the leading French and Chinese mathematicians to conduct in-depth researches, extensive exchanges, and student training in the field of applied mathematics. This summer school has the privilege of being the first summer school of the newly established LIASFMA, which makes it significant.

Offers a comprehensive overview of both the fundamentals of wavelet analysis and related tools, and of the most active developments towards applications. This title includes the developments in several active areas of research where wavelet ideas, or more generally multiresolution ideas have proved particularly effective.

Matrix functions and matrix equations are widely used in science, engineering and social sciences due to the succinct and insightful way in which they allow problems to be formulated and solutions to be expressed.
