About this Book

This volume contains papers written by participants at the Conference on Functional Differential and Difference Equations held at the Instituto Superior Tecnico in Lisbon, Portugal. The conference brought together mathematicians working in a wide range of topics, including qualitative properties of solutions, bifurcation and stability theory, oscillatory behavior, control theory and feedback systems, biological models, state-dependent delay equations, Lyapunov methods, etc. The articles are written by leading experts in the field. A comprehensive overview is given of these active areas of current research. The book will be of interest to both theoretical and applied mathematical scientists.
