Recent Progress in Differential and Difference Equations (2014)

This Thematic series originates from two international conferences. The first, the Conference on Differential and Difference Equations and Applications, was held in June 2014 in Jasna, Slovak Republic and was organised by the Department of Mathematics, University of Žilina. The second is the 6th Podlasie Conference on Mathematics, which was held in July 2014 in Bialystok, Poland and was organised by the Polish Mathematical Society. The series focuses on the latest achievements in functional differential and difference equations, publishing contributions presented at the conferences as well as other high quality papers that outline the recent progress in functional differential and difference equations.
