      This massive paper reviews a vast literature about the Stefan problem, including various generalizations of physical relevance like phase change with supercooling, the effects of surface tension on crystallization and the theory of nucleation. The Stefan problem is illustrated in great detail, comparing strong and weak versions in various forms. Besides kinetic undercooling, phase relaxation, crystallization under surface tension and phase transition of two-component systems, other extensions are considered, like e.g. the hyperbolic Stefan problem and the vectorial Stefan problem in ferromagnetism. A large section is devoted to discussing nucleation and its relation to mean curvature flows of various types and to undercooling/superheating hysteresis cycles. Historical notes provide a valuable guide through the long list of references (241 items).
