Dynamic Equations on Time Scales: An Introduction with Applications (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780817642259)

An introduction to measure chain (time scale) theory with emphasis on its usefulness in allowing for the simultaneous development of differential equations and difference equations. Motivating the subject is the notion that dynamic equations on measure chains can build bridges between continuous and discrete mathematics. The study of measure chain theory has also led to applications in the study of insect population models, neural networks, heat transfer, epidemic models. This book may stimulate the development of new kinds of equations with potentially new applications. Includes examples, exercises, solutions.
