This book is devoted to the multiplicative differential calculus. Its seven pedagogically organized chapters summarize the most recent contributions in this area, concluding with a section of practical problems to be assigned or for self-study. Two operations, differentiation and integration, are basic in calculus and analysis. In fact, they are the infinitesimal versions of the subtraction and addition operations on numbers, respectively. From 1967 till 1970, Michael Grossman and Robert Katz gave definitions of a new kind of derivative and integral, moving the roles of subtraction and addition to division and multiplication, and thus established a new calculus, called multiplicative calculus. It is also called an alternative or non-Newtonian calculus. Multiplicative calculus can especially be useful as a mathematical tool for economics, finance, biology, and engineering. Multiplicative Differential Calculus is written to be of interest to a wide audience of specialists such as mathematicians, physicists, engineers, and biologists. It is primarily a textbook at the senior undergraduate and beginning graduate level and may be used for a course on differential calculus. It is also for students studying engineering and science.

Multiplicative Differential Equations: Volume 2 is the second part of a comprehensive approach to the subject. It continues a series of books written by the authors on multiplicative, geometric approaches to key mathematical topics. This volume is devoted to the theory of multiplicative differential systems. The asymptotic behavior of the solutions of such systems is studied. Stability theory for multiplicative linear and nonlinear systems is introduced and boundary value problems for second order multiplicative linear and nonlinear equations are explored. The authors also present first order multiplicative partial differential equations. Each chapter ends with a section of practical problems. The book is accessible to graduate students and researchers in mathematics, physics, engineering and biology.

The book is a follow-up to the first book on the topic published here. The book can be used for teaching and research purposes. The book offers different techniques for investigations of Ordinary and Partial Differential Equations and should promote interest in functional analysis.

This is the second book in a two-volume set. Boundary value problems are of interest to mathematicians, engineers, scientists and the technique of investigating these problems for time scales is unique. The key topics here are BVDs, ordinary and partial differential equations, difference equations, and integral equations and so has broad appeal. The techniques presented here are applicable to these topics and the teaching and research. This book is a different take on the topic than the competitors, most offered at a higher level. This book will be accessible to advanced undergraduates, graduate students, and appeal to researchers as well.

Multiple Fixed-Point Theorems and Applications in the Theory of ODEs, FDEs and PDEs covers all the basics of the subject of fixed-point theory and its applications with a strong focus on examples, proofs and practical problems, thus making it ideal as course material but also as a reference for self-study. Many problems in science lead to nonlinear equations T x + F x = x posed in some closed convex subset of a Banach space. In particular, ordinary, fractional, partial differential equations and integral equations can be formulated like these abstract equations. It is desirable to develop fixed-point theorems for such equations. In this book, the authors investigate the existence of multiple fixed points for some operators that are of the form T + F, where T is an expansive operator and F is a k-set contraction. This book offers the reader an overview of recent developments of multiple fixed-point theorems and their applications. About the Authors Svetlin G.

Real quaternion analysis is a multi-faceted subject. Created to describe phenomena in special relativity, electrodynamics, spin etc., it has developed into a body of material that interacts with many branches of mathematics, such as complex analysis, harmonic analysis, differential geometry, and differential equations. It is also a ubiquitous factor in the description and elucidation of problems in mathematical physics. In the meantime real quaternion analysis has become a well established branch in mathematics and has been greatly successful in many different directions. This book is based on concrete examples and exercises rather than general theorems, thus making it suitable for an introductory one- or two-semester undergraduate course on some of the major aspects of real quaternion analysis in exercises. Alternatively, it may be used for beginning graduate level courses and as a reference work. With exercises at the end of each chapter and its straightforward writing style the book addresses readers who have no prior knowledge on this subject but have a basic background in graduate mathematics courses, such as real and complex analysis, ordinary differential equations, partial differential equations, and theory of distributions.

This book is intended for readers who have had a course in iso-differential calculus and it can be used for a senior undergraduate course. Chapter 1 deals with exact iso-differential equations, while first-order iso-differential equations are studied in Chapter 2 and Chapter 3. Chapter 4 discusses iso-integral inequalities. Many iso-differential equations cannot be solved as finite combinations of elementary functions. Therefore, it is important to know whether a given iso-differential equation has a solution and if it is unique. These aspects of the existence and uniqueness of the solutions for first-order initial value problems are considered in Chapter 5. Iso-differential inequalities are discussed in Chapter 6. Continuity and differentiability of solutions with respect to initial conditions are examined in Chapter 7. Chapter 8 extends existence-uniqueness results and continuous dependence on initial data for linear iso-differential systems. Basic properties of solutions of linear iso-differential systems are given in Chapter 9. Chapter 10 deals with the fundamental matrix solutions. In Chapter 11, necessary and sufficient conditions are provided so that a linear iso-differential system has only periodic solutions. The asymptotic behaviour of the solutions of linear systems is investigated in Chapter 12. Chapters 13 and 14 are devoted to some aspects of the stability of solutions of iso-differential systems. The last major topic covered in this book is that of boundary value problems involving second-order iso-differential equations. After linear boundary value problems are introduced in Chapter 15, Green's function and its construction is discussed in Chapter 16.

The 'genious idea' is the Santilli's generalisation of the basic unit of quantum mechanics into an integro-differential operator. This depends on local variables, and it is assumed to be the inverse of the isotopic element (the Santilli isounit). It was believed for centuries that the differential calculus is independent of the assumed basic unit, since the latter was traditionally given by the trivial number 1. Santilli has disproved this belief by showing that the differential calculus can be dependent on the assumed unit by formulating the isodifferential calculus with basic isodifferential. In this book, the authors introduce the main definitions and properties of isonumbers, isofunctions and isodifferentials. The book is provided with examples and exercises making it suitable for an introductory one- or two-semester undergraduate course on some of the major aspects of isodifferential calculus. Alternatively, it may be used for beginning graduate level course and as a reference work. With exercises at the end of each chapter and its straightforward writing style, the book addresses readers who have no prior knowledge on this subject but have a basic background in graduate mathematics courses, such as theory of functions and differential calculus.
