Beskrivning

Solitons were discovered by John Scott Russel in 1834, and have interested scientists and mathematicians ever since. Topics covered include mathematical and numerical aspects of solitons, as well as applications of solitons to nuclear and particle physics, cosmology, and condensed-matter physics.
