Nonlinear Analysis and Optimization I

A Conference in Celebration of Alex Ioffe's 70th and Simeon Reich's 60th Birthdays, June 18-24, 2008, Haifa, Israel

By: Simeon Reich,Aleksandr Davidovich Ioffe

This volume is the first of two volumes representing leading themes of current research in nonlinear analysis and optimization. The articles are written by prominent researchers in these two areas and bring the readers, advanced graduate students and researchers alike, to the frontline of the vigorous research in these important fields of mathematics. This volume contains articles on nonlinear analysis. Topics covered include the convex feasibility problem, fixed point theory, mathematical biology, Mosco stability, nonexpansive mapping theory, nonlinear partial differential equations, optimal control, the proximal point algorithm and semigroup theory. The companion volume (Contemporary Mathematics, Volume 514) is devoted to optimization. This book is co-published with Bar-Ilan University (Ramat-Gan, Israel). Table of Contents: A. S. Ackleh, K. Deng, and Q. Huang -- Existence-uniqueness results and difference approximations for an amphibian juvenile-adult model; S. Aizicovici, N. S. Papageorgiou, and V. Staicu -- Three nontrivial solutions for $p$-Laplacian Neumann problems with a concave nonlinearity near the origin; V. Barbu -- Optimal stabilizable feedback controller for Navier-Stokes equations; H. H. Bauschke and X. Wang -- Firmly nonexpansive and Kirszbraun-Valentine extensions: A constructive approach via monotone operator theory; R. E. Bruck -- On the random product of orthogonal projections in Hilbert space II; D. Butnariu, E. Resmerita, and S. Sabach -- A Mosco stability theorem for the generalized proximal mapping; A. Cegielski -- Generalized relaxations of nonexpansive operators and convex feasibility problems; Y. Censor and A. Segal -- Sparse string-averaging and split common fixed points; T. Dominguez Benavides and S. Phothi -- Genericity of the fixed point property for reflexive spaces under renormings; K. Goebel and B. Sims -- Mean Lipschitzian mappings; T. Ibaraki and W. Takahashi -- Generalized nonexpansive mappings and a proximal-type algorithm in Banach spaces; W. Kaczor, T. Kuczumow, and N. Michalska -- The common fixed point set of commuting nonexpansive mapping in Cartesian products of weakly compact convex sets; L. Leu'tean -- Nonexpansive iterations in uniformly convex $W$-hyperbolic spaces; G. Lopez, V. Martin-Marquez, and H.-K. Xu -- Halpern's iteration for nonexpansive mappings; J. W.

Alexander Pushkin

Complete Prose Fiction

By: Aleksandr Sergeevich Pushkin,Paul Debreczeny,Walter W. Arndt

Alexander Pushkin (1799-1837) is best known for his great achievments in poetry, but the fixtion he wrote in the last decade of his life was to have a tremendous impact on the subsequent development of Russian prose, influencing such later writers as Gogol, Dostoevsky, and Tolstoy. This is a new translation of all his prose fiction, from his famous story "The Queen of Spades" down to unfinished stories and fragments that appear in English for the first time. Pushkin's non-fictional A History of Pugachev, also translated into English for the first time, is included because it furnished the historical background of his novel The Captain's Daughter. The translator has taken care to achieve a balance between faithfulness to the original and readability in English, and several Russian editions have been collated to establish an accurate text. The translations are annotated to place each work in its historical context, and to eluvidate passages not easily understandable to today's reader. Appendixes present a chapter that Pushkin deleted from The Captain's Daughter; fictional fragments; Pushkin's outlines of projected works; and the apocryphal novella The Lonely Cottage on Vasilev Island.

In the First Circle

The First Uncensored Edition

By: Aleksandr I. Solzhenitsyn

The thrilling Cold War masterwork by the Nobel Prize-winning author of The Gulag Archipelago, published in full for the first time. "Solzhenitsyn's best novel. . . . A great and important book, whose qualities are finally fully available to English-speaking readers.” —Washington Post Moscow, Christmas Eve, 1949.The Soviet secret police intercept a call made to the American embassy by a Russian diplomat who promises to deliver secrets about the nascent Soviet Atomic Bomb program. On that same day, a brilliant mathematician is locked away inside a Moscow prison that houses the country's brightest minds. He and his fellow prisoners are charged with using their abilities to sleuth out the caller's identity, and they must choose whether to aid Joseph Stalin's repressive state—or refuse and accept transfer to the Siberian Gulag camps . . . and almost certain death. First written between 1955 and 1958, In the First Circle is Solzhenitsyn's fiction masterpiece. In order to pass through Soviet censors, many essential scenes—including nine full chapters—were cut or altered before it was published in a hastily translated English edition in 1968. Now with the help of the author's most trusted translator, Harry T. Willetts, here for the first time is the complete, definitive English edition of Solzhenitsyn's powerful and magnificent classic.
