Preface
The area of differential equations has played a central role in the development of
mathematics and its applications for nearly four centuries, yet it still displays an
unabated vitality. The field involves vigorous cross-disciplinary interactions, and
research papers appear in a variety of mathematics and science journals. Such
breadth and fertility create difficulties for those who wish to keep abreast of
recent developments. Consequently, it is beneficial to have occasions which bring
together experts i
