Analysis on Function Spaces of Musielak-Orlicz Type cover

This book offers a comprehensive overview of Musielak-Orlicz spaces, emphasizing their applications and foundational theories, particularly in variable exponent contexts.

The study of Musielak-Orlicz spaces has gained significant attention, particularly due to their applications in electrorheological hydrodynamics. This interest has brought the variable exponent Lebesgue spaces to the forefront of mathematical analysis. In the book Analysis on Function Spaces of Musielak-Orlicz Type, readers will discover a comprehensive survey that delves into the theory behind these function spaces, providing a solid foundation for understanding their complexities.

Analysis on Function Spaces of Musielak-Orlicz Type serves as an accessible introduction to the fundamental concepts of Musielak–Orlicz spaces. It guides readers through the essential theoretical aspects and presents associated function spaces, effectively bridging the gap to current research developments in the field. The book emphasizes how classical analysis results can be adapted to fit the framework of variable exponent function spaces, showcasing the relevance of these spaces in modern mathematical discourse.

Moreover, the text highlights that many pivotal results in variable exponent Lebesgue spaces are intrinsically linked to the structure of the Musielak-Orlicz function. This realization paves the way for a unified theory that encompasses both traditional Lebesgue spaces and their variable exponent counterparts. With numerous applications, open problems, and a focus on clarity, this book is a valuable resource for both seasoned researchers and graduate students venturing into this fascinating area of mathematics.

"The family of Musielak-Orlicz (M-O) spaces mentioned in the title includes not only those of classical Lebesgue and Orlicz type, but also the spaces with variable exponent that have attracted such a great deal of interest in recent years. After a preparatory chapter in which basic facts are established, a detailed study is made of M-O spaces, following which Sobolev spaces based on them are examined. Finally, there is a chapter giving applications, dealing in particular
with the variable exponent p Laplacian.

A particular virtue of the book is that the unified approach adopted to deal with very general circumstances is accomplished by keeping the technicalities firmly subordinate to the main ideas. It is a welcome addition to the number of books dealing with related topics and should be of definite interest to many."
