Download or read book Nonlinear Evolution Equations And Dynamical Systems - Proceedings Of The Workshop (Needs '91) written by M Boiti and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1992-08-26 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Workshop NEEDS '91 brought together, from all over the world, scientists engaged in research on nonlinear systems, either their underlying mathematical properties or their physical applications. Accordingly, many talks were devoted to present methods of solution (like spectral transform) and to the investigation of structural (geometrical and/or algebraic) properties of (continuous and discrete) nonlinear evolution equations. Peculiar nonlinear systems, such as cellular automata, were also discussed. Applications to various fields of physics, namely, quantum field theory, fluid dynamics, general relativity and plasma physics were considered.
