Foreword
These are the proceedings of the first Latin American School of Differential Equations (ELAED 1 for short) held at the University of Sao Paulo during the period from June 29 to July 17, 1981. The School has been started as a consequence of a joint project of Brazilian and Mexican mathematicians, but hopefully it will evolve towards a larger program in Latin America with the active participation of other countries. This first meeting received financial support from the Conselho Nacional do Desenvolvimento Cientifico e Tecnologico (CNPq, Brazil), Consejo Nacional de Ciencia y Tecnologia (CONACYT, Mexico), Sociedade Brasileira de Matematica,
de Amparo a Pesquisa do Estado de
Sao Paulo (FAPESP, Brazil), Universidade de Sao Paulo, Instituto Politecnico Nacional de Mexico, Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico. There were 6 courses, which were delivered by Alfonso Castro B. (Reduction Methods via Minimax), Djairo G. de Figueiredo (Positive Solutions of Semilinear Elliptic Problems), Jorge Ize (Introduction to Bifurcation Theory). Onesimo Hernandez (Introduction to Stochastic Differential Equations), Pedro Nowosad (Quanta and Geometry) and Paul Rabinowitz (The Mountain Pass Theorem: Theme and Variations), 15 invited lectures and a number of research announcements. The number of participants exceeded 80. The organizational committee was composed by Chaim Samuel Honig (USP, Brazil), Djairo Guedes de Figueiredo (UnB, Brazil) and Samuel Gitler (lPN, Mexico).
