The volume contains the proceedings of the OTAMP 2006 (Operator Theory, Analysis and Mathematical Physics) conference held at Lund University in June 2006. The conference was devoted to the methods of analysis and operator theory in modern mathematical physics. The following special sessions were organized: Spectral analysis of Schrodinger operators; Jacobi and CMV matrices and orthogonal polynomials; Quasi-periodic and random Schrodinger operators; Quantum graphs.

This volume contains lectures delivered at the International Conference Operator Theory and its Applications in Mathematical Physics (OTAMP 2004), held at the Mathematical Research and Conference Center in Bedlewo near Poznan, Poland. The idea behind these lectures was to present interesting ramifications of operator methods in current research of mathematical physics.

Research articles and surveys from world-recognized mathematicians cover large areas in Analysis where the contributions of Prof. Maz'ya are fundamental, influential, and/or pioneering. Among more than 25 monographs and 450 research papers by V. Maz'ya, one can find deep results predetermining the further development of very diverse topics, which is reflected in the collected papers. Recent advantages in the theory of Sobolev spaces are presented. Hardy-Sobolev-Maz'ya inequalities, Maz'ya isocapacitary inequalities, isoperimetric inequalities, sharp constants, extension operators are...

The topics of this volume are diverse, but all of them are related to a huge area in analysis and applications where remarkably deep results and original approaches of Professor Maz'ya play a fundamental role. World-recognized experts present their new results covering, in particular, the following topics: Beurling's minimum principle, inverse hyperbolic problems, degenerate oblique derivative problems, the Lp-dissipativity connected with the Lp-contractivity of the generated semigroups, optimal control of a biharmonic obstacle problem sharp bilateral bounds of Green's function for the...

New results, presented from world-recognized experts, are close to scientific interests of Professor Maz'ya and use, directly or indirectly, the fundamental influential Maz'ya's works penetrating, in a sense, the theory of PDEs. In particular, the following topics are covered: semilinear elliptic equations with exponential monlinearity, stationary Navier-Stokes equations on Lipschitz domains in Riemannian manifolds, Stokes equations in a thin cylindrical elastic tube the Neumann problem for 4th order linear partial differential operators the Stokes system in convex polyhedra, periodic...

Professor Maz'ya - one of the main developers of the modern theory of Sobolev spaces - contributed to the theory in many various directions. The strong influence of his fundamental works is traced in recent results presented in this volume from world-recognized specialists. The topics cover various aspects of the theory of function spaces, including Orlicz-Sobolev spaces, weighted Sobolev spaces, Dirichlet spaces, Besov Spaces with negative exponents, fractional Sobolev spaces on half-spaces and sharp constants in the Hardy inequality, Maz'ya's capacitary analogue of the co-area inequality...

This volume contains the proceedings of the OTAMP 2008 (Operator Theory, Analysis and Mathematical Physics) conference held at the Mathematical Research and Conference Center in Bedlewo near Poznan. It is composed of original research articles describing important results presented at the conference, some with extended review sections, as well as presentations by young researchers. Special sessions were devoted to random and quasi-periodic differential operators, orthogonal polynomials, Jacobi and CMV matrices, and quantum graphs. This volume also reflects new trends in spectral theory,...
