Continuation techniques and bifurcation problems / edited by Hans D. Mittelmann, Dirk Roose.

The analysis of parameter-dependent nonlinear has received much attention in recent years. Numerical continuation techniques allow the efficient computation of solution branches in a one-parameter problem. In many cases continuation procedures are used as part of a more complete analysis of a nonlin...
