This volume contains the contributions of participants of the conference "Optimal Control of Partial Differential Equations" held at the Wasserschloss Klaffenbach near Chemnitz (Saxony, Germany) from April 20 to 25, 1998. The conference was organized by the editors of this volume. Along with the dramatic increase in computer power, the application of PDE-based control theory and the corresponding numerical algorithms to industrial problems has become more and more important in recent years. This development is reflected by the fact that researchers focus their interest on challenging problems

This is the first of two volumes containing peer-reviewed research and survey papers based on invited talks at the International Conference on Modern Analysis and Applications. The conference, which was dedicated to the 100th anniversary of the birth of Mark Krein, one of the greatest mathematicians of the 20th century, was held in Odessa, Ukraine, on April 9-14, 2007. The papers describe the contemporary development of subjects influenced by Krein, such as the theory of operators in Hilbert and Krein spaces, differential operators, applications of functional analysis in function theory, theor

This book surveys results on the physical and mathematical modeling as well as the numerical simulation of hemodynamical flows, i.e., of fluid and structural mechanical processes occurring in the human blood circuit. The topics treated are continuum mechanical description, choice of suitable liquid and wall models, mathematical analysis of coupled models, numerical methods for flow simulation, parameter identification and model calibration, fluid-solid interaction, mathematical analysis of piping systems, particle transport in channels and pipes, artificial boundary conditions, and many more.

Abelian varieties and their moduli are a topic of increasing importance in today`s mathematics, applications ranging from algebraic geometry and number theory to mathematical physics. This collection of 17 refereed articles originates from the third "Texel Conference" held in 1999. Leading experts discuss and study the structure of the moduli spaces of abelian varieties and related spaces, giving an excellent view of the state of the art in this field.

The intention of the book is to highlight the problematic aspects of turbulence. The contributions treat a variety of mathematical, physical and engineering subjects related to turbulence. The topics include mathematical issues, control and related problems, observational aspects, two- and quasi-two-dimensional flows, basic aspects of turbulence modeling, statistical issues and passive scalars. The main questions addressed are the controllability of turbulent flows, possible qualitative differences between pure two-dimensional and real quasi-two-dimensional turbulent flows, common features
