Boundary Value Problems for Elliptic Systems

Klappentext This book examines the theory of boundary value problems for elliptic systems of partial differential equations. Zusammenfassung This book examines the theory of boundary value problems for elliptic systems of partial differential equations. The aim is to 'algebraize' the index theory by means of pseudo-differential operators and new methods in the spectral theory of matrix polynomials. Inhaltsverzeichnis Part I.
