Boundary value problems for differential and functional differential equations

Subject/research area

Linear elliptic and parabolic functional-differential equations with transformations of spatial variables in the regions of Euclidean space and their one-dimensional analogues.

Goals and tasks

Study of solvability, spectral properties and smoothness of generalized solutions and other qualitative properties of solutions of boundary value problems for elliptic functional-differential equations. Construction of the index theory. The study of solvability and smoothness of solutions of mixed problems for parabolic functional-differential equations.
