Rezensionen

"Kythe explores fundamental solutions of both linear and nonlinear differential operators from mathematical physics, elasticity, fluid dynamics, piezoelectrics, and cosmology. The book begins with a historical development of the subject.... Three appendices provide background on Fourier and Laplace transforms, details about several computer programs that can be used in conjunction with the book, and a listing of 76 differential operators. Extensive bibliography." -Choice
