Hans Lewy Selecta: Volume 2 (2002)

The work of Hans Lewy (1904--1988) has touched nearly every significant area of functional analysis and has had a profound influence in the direction of applied mathematics and partial differential equations from the late 1920s. Famous for his originality and ingenuity, Lewy illustrated and revealed fundamental principles on the theory of partial differential equations, in particular, on elliptic equations and free boundary problems. The papers presented in this two-volume set represent a selection of his best work and are augmented by commentary from his students, colleagues, and family.
