Book Description
The theory of soliton equations and integrable systems has developed rapidly during the last 20 years with numerous applications in mechanics and physics. For a long time books in this field have not been written but the flood of papers was overwhelming: many hundreds, maybe thousands of them. All this followed one single work by Gardner, Greene, Kruskal, and Miura about the Korteweg-de Vries equation (KdV) which, had seemed to be merely an unassuming equation of mathematical physics describing waves in shallow water.

Soliton Equations And Hamiltonian Systems (Second Edition)
Author: Leonid A Dickey
Publisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 9814487422
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 421
Book Description
The theory of soliton equations and integrable systems has developed rapidly during the last 30 years with numerous applications in mechanics and physics. For a long time, books in this field have not been written but the flood of papers was overwhelming: many hundreds, maybe thousands of them. All this output followed one single work by Gardner, Green, Kruskal, and Mizura on the Korteweg-de Vries equation (KdV), which had seemed to be merely an unassuming equation of mathematical physics describing waves in shallow water.Besides its obvious practical use, this theory is attractive also because it satisfies the aesthetic need in a beautiful formula which is so inherent to mathematics.The second edition is up-to-date and differs from the first one considerably. One third of the book (five chapters) is completely new and the rest is refreshed and edited.

Hamiltonian Methods in the Theory of Solitons
Author: Ludwig Faddeev
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3540699694
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 602
Book Description
The main characteristic of this classic exposition of the inverse scattering method and its applications to soliton theory is its consistent Hamiltonian approach to the theory. The nonlinear Schrödinger equation is considered as a main example, forming the first part of the book. The second part examines such fundamental models as the sine-Gordon equation and the Heisenberg equation, the classification of integrable models and methods for constructing their solutions.

Soliton Equations and their Algebro-Geometric Solutions: Volume 1, (1+1)-Dimensional Continuous Models
Author: Fritz Gesztesy
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9781139439411
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 522
Book Description
The focus of this book is on algebro-geometric solutions of completely integrable nonlinear partial differential equations in (1+1)-dimensions, also known as soliton equations. Explicitly treated integrable models include the KdV, AKNS, sine-Gordon, and Camassa-Holm hierarchies as well as the classical massive Thirring system. An extensive treatment of the class of algebro-geometric solutions in the stationary as well as time-dependent contexts is provided. The formalism presented includes trace formulas, Dubrovin-type initial value problems, Baker-Akhiezer functions, and theta function representations of all relevant quantities involved. The book uses techniques from the theory of differential equations, spectral analysis, and elements of algebraic geometry (most notably, the theory of compact Riemann surfaces). The presentation is rigorous, detailed, and self-contained, with ample background material provided in various appendices. Detailed notes for each chapter together with an exhaustive bibliography enhance the presentation offered in the main text.

Book Description
The notion of solitons arose with the study of partial differential equations at the end of the 19th century. In more recent times their study has involved ideas from other areas of mathematics such as algebraic gometry, topology, and in particular infinite dimensional Lie algebras, and it this approach that is the main theme of this book.This book will be of great interest to all whose research interests involves the mathematics of solitons.
