摘要

Two issues of Journal of Mathematical Sciences, N. Y. (176, No. 6 and 177, No. 1, August 2011) are dedicated to the 70th birthday of the outstanding Russian mathematician Professor V. V. Zhikov. More than 40 authors present their recent research results in various areas close to the scientific interests of V. V. Zhikov. Some of the authors were invited speakers at the International Conference on the occasion of Zhikov's 70th birthday "Multiscale Methods and Qualitative Properties for Differential Operators" held in Naples, Italy on May 6-7, 2011. Kind consultations of Professors Yu. Alkhutov, G. Panasenko, and A. Piatnitski were very helpful for gathering and preparing these issues.
