Multisummability is a method which, for certain formal power series with radius of convergence equal to zero, produces an analytic function having the formal series as its asymptotic expansion. This book presents the theory of multisummabi- lity, and as an application, contains a proof of the fact that all formal power series solutions of non-linear meromorphic ODE are multisummable. It will be of use to graduate students and researchers in mathematics and theoretical physics, and especially to those who encounter formal power series to (physical) equations with rapidly, but regularly, growing coefficients.

These proceedings provide methods, techniques, different mathematical tools and recent results in the study of formal and analytic solutions to Diff. (differential, partial differential, difference, q-difference, q-difference-differential.... ) Equations. They consist of selected contributions from the conference "Formal and Analytic Solutions of Diff. Equations", held at Alcalá de Henares, Spain during September 4-8, 2017. Their topics include summability and asymptotic study of both ordinary and partial differential equations. The volume is divided into four parts. The first paper is a survey of the elements of nonlinear analysis. It describes the algorithms to obtain asymptotic expansion of solutions of nonlinear algebraic, ordinary differential, partial differential equations, and of systems of such equations. Five works on formal and analytic solutions of PDEs are followed by five papers on the study of solutions of ODEs. The proceedings conclude with five works on related topics, generalizations and applications. All contributions have been peer reviewed by anonymous referees chosen among the experts on the subject. The volume will be of interest to graduate students and researchers in theoretical and applied mathematics, physics and engineering seeking an overview of the recent trends in the theory of formal and analytic solutions of functional (differential, partial differential, difference, q-difference, q-difference-differential) equations in the complex domain.

This expanded version of the 1997 European Mathematical Society Lectures given by the author in Helsinki, begins with a self-contained introduction to nonstandard analysis (NSA) and the construction of Loeb Measures, which are rich measures discovered in 1975 by Peter Loeb, using techniques from NSA. Subsequent chapters sketch a range of recent applications of Loeb measures due to the author and his collaborators, in such diverse fields as (stochastic) fluid mechanics, stochastic calculus of variations ("Malliavin" calculus) and the mathematical finance theory. The exposition is designed for a general audience, and no previous knowledge of either NSA or the various fields of applications is assumed.

This book is essentially a set of lecture notes from a graduate seminar given at Cornell in Spring 1994. It treats basic mathematical theory for superconvergence in the context of second order elliptic problems. It is aimed at graduate students and researchers. The necessary technical tools are developed in the text although sometimes long proofs are merely referenced. The book gives a rather complete overview of the field of superconvergence (in time-independent problems). It is the first text with such a scope. It includes a very complete and up-to-date list of references.

With a balanced combination of longer survey articles and shorter, peer-reviewed research-level presentations on the topic of differential and difference equations on the complex domain, this edited volume presents an up-to-date overview of areas such as WKB analysis, summability, resurgence, formal solutions, integrability, and several algebraic aspects of differential and difference equations.

This volume contains a re-edition of Max Koecher's famous Minnesota Notes. The main objects are homogeneous, but not necessarily convex, cones. They are described in terms of Jordan algebras. The central point is a correspondence between semisimple real Jordan algebras and so-called omega-domains. This leads to a construction of half-spaces which give an essential part of all bounded symmetric domains. The theory is presented in a concise manner, with only elementary prerequisites. The editors have added notes on each chapter containing an account of the relevant developments of the theory since these notes were first written.
