The book is devoted to the foundations of the theory of boundary-value problems for various classes of systems of differential-operator equations whose linear part is represented by Fredholm operators of the general form. A common point of view on numerous classes of problems that were traditionally studied independently of each other enables us to study, in a natural way, the theory of these problems, to supplement and improve the existing results, and in certain cases, study some of these problems for the first time. With the help of the technique of generalized inverse operators, the Vishik– Lyusternik method, and iterative methods, we perform a detailed investigation of the problems of existence, bifurcations, and branching of the solutions of linear and nonlinear boundary-value problems for various classes of differential-operator systems and propose new procedures for their construction. For more than 11 years that have passed since the appearance of the first edition of the monograph, numerous new publications of the authors in this direction have appeared. In this connection, it became necessary to make some additions and corrections to the previous extensively cited edition, which is still of signifi cant interest for the researchers. For researchers, teachers, post-graduate students, and students of physical and mathematical departments of universities. Contents: Preliminary Information Generalized Inverse Operators in Banach Spaces Pseudoinverse Operators in Hilbert Spaces Boundary-Value Problems for Operator Equations Boundary-Value Problems for Systems of Ordinary Differential Equations Impulsive Boundary-Value Problems for Systems of Ordinary Differential Equations Solutions of Differential and Difference Systems Bounded on the Entire Real Axis

This second edition accounts for many major developments in generalized inverses while maintaining the informal and leisurely style of the 1974 first edition. Added material includes a chapter on applications, new exercises, and an appendix on the work of E.H. Moore.

The authors of this monograph suggest some methods for the construction of the generalized inverse (or pseudo-inverse) operators for the original linear Fredholm operators in Banach (or Hilbert) spaces for boundary-value problems regarded as operator systems in abstract spaces. They also study basic properties of the generalized Green's operator.

Provides comprehensive coverage of the mathematical theory of generalized inverses and a wide range of important and practical applications.

This book begins with the fundamentals of the generalized inverses, then moves to more advanced topics. It presents a theoretical study of the generalization of Cramer's rule, determinant representations of the generalized inverses, reverse order law of the generalized inverses of a matrix product, structures of the generalized inverses of structured matrices, parallel computation of the generalized inverses, perturbation analysis of the generalized inverses, an algorithmic study of the computational methods for the full-rank factorization of a generalized inverse, generalized singular value decomposition, imbedding method, finite method, generalized inverses of polynomial matrices, and generalized inverses of linear operators. This book is intended for researchers, postdocs, and graduate students in the area of the generalized inverses with an undergraduate-level understanding of linear algebra.
