A real jewel of book!
This is an important contribution to the history of mathematics. It makes several corrections and additions to scant amount of biographical information of the mathematician Janos Bolyai available in the English language. However its greatest contribution is to provide new insight into Bolyai's later years which were previously believed to be largely unproductive in terms of mathematics. Kiss has found that Bolyai remained an active researcher until the end of his life, and made original contributions to number theory, algebraic equations, and other subjects, many of which were years ahead of his time (much like Bolyai's work in geometry). In an historical sense I rank this book with Bertand Rusell's tome about Leibniz's philosophy, much of which remained unpublished in Leibniz's lifetime and was only discovered in his voluminous notes after his death. ...

Product Description
The Colloquium on Differential Equations and Applications (Budapest, August 21-24, 1991) was organized by the János Bolyai Mathematical Society, the Loránd Eötvös University and the Budapest University of Technology. It was sponsored by the National Committee for Technological Development.

The emphasis was on partial differential equations and their applications. Topics treated in the talks and in this volume range from non-linear elliptic problems to reaction-diffusion systems, from retarded functional differential equations to different problems of bifurcation theory. There were several talks about applications, for instance in beam theory, in biology, in heat transfer problems etc. ... Read more
