Sobolev Spaces

From the reviews of the second edition: The present augmented and revised edition has five new chapters, new historical comments, and a significantly extended list of references. It is well written and clearly comes up to the authors aim of creating a broader and modern view of the area. It can be warmly recommended to anybody working in the field of partial differential equations. (G. Teschl, Monatshefte fr Mathematik, Vol. 166 (1), April, 2012) This is a revised and enlarged edition of a book first published in English in 1985. The book is largely an account of the authors own work on the subject. Mazyas massive book will continue to be a fundamental reference for those who work in the field. (Fernando Q. Gouva, The Mathematical Association of America, June, 2011) This new edition of the book is enhanced by many recent results and it includes new applications to linear and nonlinear partial differential equations. This comprehensive volume is very well written and well structured. It will certainly serve as a valuable reference work for graduate students and researchers working in related fields.

In July 2009 the Senior Whitehead Prize of the London Mathematical Society was awarded to Professor Mazya. He has also received the Celcius Gold Medal from the Swedish Royal Society in Uppsala (2004), the Verdaguer Prize from the Academie de France (2003), and the Humboldt Research Prize (1999) in Germany. In 2002 he was elected to the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences and in 2001 he became Corresponding Fellow of the Scottish National Academy. He was an invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians (2002) and on the occasion of his 70th birthday (2008) two international conferences in Rome and Stockholm were organized. In 2009 five volumes dedicated to him were published in USA, Italy and Germany.
