Summary
This text is concerned with the quantitative aspects of the theory of nonlinear diffusion equations; equations which can be seen as nonlinear variations of the classical heat equation. They appear as mathematical models in different branches of Physics, Chemistry, Biology, and Engineering, and are also relevant in differential geometry and relativistic physics. Much of the modern theory of such equations is based on estimates and functionalanalysis.Concentrating on a class of equations with…

Critics Review
`This book is intended to introduce graduate students to the methods and results of nonlinear diffusion equations of porous medium type, as practised today. The present text, remarkable for generality and depth, is also notable for its author’s concern, throughout, to keep the important issues about varieties clearly in the foreground … [the book] succeeds admirably, in the reviewer’s opinion, in introducing its difficult subject at a level appropriatefor preparing future workers in the field.‘Vicentiu Radulescu, Mathematical Reviews Issue 2007k
