Description

The present book carefully studies the blow-up phenomenon of solutions to partial differential equations, including many equations of mathematical physics. The included material is based on lectures read by the authors at the Lomonosov Moscow State University, and the book is addressed to a wide range of researchers and graduate students working in nonlinear partial differential equations, nonlinear functional analysis, and mathematical physics.
