Description
This set of three volumes aims to describe the recent progress in nonlinear differential equations and nonlinear dynamical systems (both continuous and discrete). Written by experts, each chapter is self-contained and aims to clearly illustrate some of the mathematical theories of nonlinear systems. These volumes should be suitable for graduate and postgraduate students in mathematics, the natural sciences, and engineering sciences, as well as for researchers (both pure and applied) interested in nonlinear systems. The common theme throughout all the volumes is on solvable and integrable nonlinear systems of equations and methods/theories that can be applied to analyze those systems. Some applications are also discussed.
Features
Clearly illustrates the mathematical theories of nonlinear systems and their progress to both the non-expert and active researchers in this area.
Suitable for graduate students in mathematics, applied mathematics and some of the engineering sciences.
Written in a careful pedagogical manner by those experts who have been involved in the research themselves, with each contribution being reasonably self-contained.
