SUMMARY

This book contains four excellent contributions on topics in dynamical systems by authors with an international reputation: "Hyperbolic and Exponential Dichotomy for Dynamical Systems", "Feedback Stabilizability of Time-periodic Parabolic Equations", "Homoclinic Bifurcations with Weakly Expanding Center Manifolds" and "Homoclinic Orbits in a Four-Dimensional Model of a Perturbed NLS Equation: A Geometric Singular Perturbation Study". All the authors give a careful and readable presentation of recent research results, addressed not only to specialists but also to a broader range of readers including graduate students
