Description for Semiclassical Soliton Ensembles for the Focusing Nonlinear Schrödinger Equation (AM-154)
Paperback. Represents the asymptotic analysis, via completely integrable techniques, of the initial value problem for the focusing nonlinear Schrodinger equation in the semiclassical asymptotic regime. This book exploits complete integrability to establish pointwise asymptotics for this problem's solution in the semiclassical regime. Series: Annals of Mathematics Studies. Num Pages: 312 pages, 50 line illus. BIC Classification: PBK; PHQ. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 229 x 152 x 18. Weight in Grams: 457.
This book represents the first asymptotic analysis, via completely integrable techniques, of the initial value problem for the focusing nonlinear Schrodinger equation in the semiclassical asymptotic regime. This problem is a key model in nonlinear optical physics and has increasingly important applications in the telecommunications industry. The authors exploit complete integrability to establish pointwise asymptotics for this problem's solution in the semiclassical regime and explicit integration for the underlying nonlinear, elliptic, partial differential equations suspected of governing the semiclassical behavior. In doing so they also aim to explain the observed gradient catastrophe for the underlying nonlinear elliptic partial differential equations, ... Read more

Reviews for Semiclassical Soliton Ensembles for the Focusing Nonlinear Schrödinger Equation (AM-154)
"Overall, this ... book [gives] a deep insight into the application of inverse scattering to equation... Most of the current books on solution theory tend to focus mainly on inverse scattering for the KdV equation, so a book that concentrates solely on the NLS equation is refreshing."
