GENERAL NOTES
Text of Note
"This book will be useful for students and specialists of partial differential equations and the mathematical sciences because it clarifies crucial points of Kreiss' symmetrizer technique. The Kreiss technique was developed by H.O. Kreiss for initial boundary value problems for linear hyperbolic systems. This technique is important because it involves equations that are used in many of the applied sciences. The research presented in this book takes unique approaches to exploring the Kreiss technique that will add insight and new perspectives to linear hyperbolic problems"--Publ. web site
