Analysis Of Monge Ampere Equations

Download or read book The Monge—Ampère Equation written by Cristian E. Gutierrez and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2001-05-11 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Monge-Ampère equation has attracted considerable interest in recent years because of its important role in several areas of applied mathematics. Monge-Ampère type equations have applications in the areas of differential geometry, the calculus of variations, and several optimization problems, such as the Monge-Kantorovitch mass transfer problem. This book stresses the geometric aspects of this beautiful theory, using techniques from harmonic analysis – covering lemmas and set decompositions.
