Theory of Degrees With Applications to Bifurcations and Differential Equations (Canadian Mathematical Society Series of Monographs and Advanced Texts)

By Jianhong Wu and Wieslaw Krawcewicz

This book provides an introduction to degree theory and its applications to nonlinear differential equations. It uses an applications-oriented to address functional analysis, general topology and differential equations and offers a unified treatment of the classical Brouwer degree, the recently developed S?1-degree and the Dold-Ulrich degree for equivalent mappings and bifurcation problems. It integrates two seemingly disparate concepts, beginning with review material before shifting to classical theory and advanced application techniques.
