Wiley 2012; US$ 94.95A simplified, yet rigorous treatment of scattering theory methods and their applications Dispersion Decay and Scattering Theory provides thorough, easy-to-understand guidance on the application of scattering theory methods to modern problems in mathematics, quantum physics, and mathematical physics. Introducing spectral methods with applications... more...
Waves and Oscillations
Oxford University Press, USA 2010; US$ 74.99Waves and oscillations permeate virtually every field of current physics research, are central to chemistry, and are essential to much of engineering. Furthermore, the concepts and mathematical techniques used for serious study of waves and oscillations form the foundation for quantum mechanics. Once they have mastered these ideas in a classical context,... more...
Quasilinear Hyperbolic Systems, Compressible Flows, and Waves
CRC Press 2010; US$ 104.95Filled with practical examples, this book presents a self-contained discussion of quasilinear hyperbolic equations and systems with applications. It emphasizes nonlinear theory and introduces some of the most active research in the field. The author elucidates all necessary mathematical concepts in the first three chapters, including an introduction... more...
The Versatile Soliton
Springer 2010; US$ 59.95If you have not already heard about solitons, you will sooner or later encounter them. The soliton, a solitary wave impulse preserving its shape and strikingly similar to a particle, is one of the most fascinating and beautiful phenomena in the physics of nonlinear waves. In this engaging book, the concept of the soliton is traced from the beginning... more...
Solitons, Instantons, and Twistors
OUP Oxford 2009; US$ 64.99Most nonlinear differential equations arising in natural sciences admit chaotic behaviour and cannot be solved analytically. Integrable systems lie on the other extreme. They possess regular, stable, and well behaved solutions known as solitons and instantons. These solutions play important roles in pure and applied mathematics as well as in theoretical... more...
Supersymmetric Solitons
Cambridge University Press 2009; US$ 109.00Summarizes major advances in critical solitons in supersymmetric theories and their implications, for researchers. more...
Solitary Waves in Fluids
WIT Press 2007; US$ 140.00After the initial observation by John Scott Russell of a solitary wave in a canal, his insightful laboratory experiments and the subsequent theoretical work of Boussinesq, Rayleigh and Korteweg and de Vries, interest in solitary waves in fluids lapsed until the mid 1960's with the seminal paper of Zabusky and Kruskal describing the discovery of... more...
Introduction to non-Kerr Law Optical Solitons
Taylor & Francis 2007; US$ 107.95This book is the first dedicated to optical soliton propagation in media with non-Kerr law nonlinearities. After establishing a foundation in optical communication and the nonlinear Schrödinger equation, the authors examine various properties of non-Kerr law solitons in detail. They construct soliton dynamics, evaluate the integral of motion, and develop... more...
Kinks and Domain Walls
Cambridge University Press 2006; US$ 42.00The book examines classical solitons, and their principal classical and quantum properties. It includes several state-of-the-art results and each chapter contains questions and research problems. This book will be of great interest to graduate students and academic researchers in theoretical physics, particle physics, cosmology and condensed matter... more...
