The motion of water is governed by a set of mathematical equations which are extremely complicated and intractable. This is not surprising when one considers the highly diverse and intricate physical phenomena which may be exhibited by a given body of water. Recent mathematical advances have enabled researchers to make major progress in this field, reflected in the topics featured in this volume. Cutting-edge techniques and tools from mathematical analysis have generated strong rigorous results concerning the qualitative and quantitative physical properties of solutions of the governing equations. Furthermore, accurate numerical computations of fully-nonlinear steady and unsteady water waves in two and three dimensions have contributed to the discovery of new types of waves. Model equations have been derived in the long-wave and modulational regime using Hamiltonian formulations and solved numerically.This book brings together interdisciplinary researchers working in the field of nonlinear water waves, whose contributions range from survey articles to new research results which address a variety of aspects in nonlinear water waves. It is motivated by a workshop which was organised at the Erwin Schrödinger International Institute for Mathematics and Physics in Vienna, November 27-December 7, 2017. The key aim of the workshop was to describe, and foster, new approaches to research in this field. This is reflected in the contents of this book, which is aimed to stimulate both experienced researchers and students alike.

This book presents selected lectures from the Wisła 22 Winter School and Workshop organized by the Baltic Institute of Mathematics that illustrate the power of geometric methods in understanding complex physical systems. Chapters progress from foundational mathematical structures to concrete applications in fluid dynamics and mechanical systems, highlighting the profound connection between differential geometry and physical phenomena.The first chapter investigates differentiable structures on a non-Hausdorff line with two origins, setting the stage for the applications that follow. The next chapter transitions to fluid mechanics through a study of generalized geometry in two-dimensional incompressible fluid flows, establishing the mathematical framework needed for analyzing fluid systems through geometric lenses. Building on these foundations, the third chapter expands the perspective with a comprehensive treatment of nonlinear differential equations in fluid mechanics, utilizing concepts from contact and symplectic geometry to illuminate singular properties of fluid dynamics solutions. Finally, the fourth chapter demonstrates how geometric methods extend beyond fluid mechanics to mechanical systems with nonholonomic constraints, revealing how geometric formulations can address challenging phenomena like discontinuities, collisions, and the counterintuitive stabilization of inverted pendulums.Geometric Methods in Physical Systems is ideal for graduate students and researchers working in these areas. A basic understanding of differential geometry and mathematical analysis is assumed.

One of the most important questions concerning the foundations of physics, especially since the discovery of relativity and quantum theory, is the nature and role of time. In this book we bring together researchers from different areas of physics, mathematics, computer science and philosophy to discuss the role time plays in physics. There have been few books on this topic to date, and two of the key aims of the workshop and this book are to encourage more researchers to explore this area, and to pique students’ interest in the different roles time plays in physics.
