Dynamical Problems in Soliton Systems

This volume contains most of the papers presented in the oral session of the 7th Kyoto Summer Institute (KSI) . on Dynamical Problems in Soliton Systems, held in Kyoto from August 27 to 31, 1984. Furthermore, it contains contributions of R.K. Bullough, H.H. Chen, A.S. Davydov, and N. Sanchez, who unfortunately could not attend. Thirty-six papers were presented in the oral session and 17 papers in the poster session. The meeting brought together 109 physicists and mathematicians, of which 22 were from abroad (see group photograph). The KSI is an international meeting organized by the Research Institute for Fundamental Physics (RIFP), Kyoto University to discuss various cur re nt problems of f...

Inverse Methods in Action

This volume contains the Proceedings of a meeting held at Montpellier from November 27th to December 1st 1989 and entitled "Inverse Problems Multicen tennials Meeting". It was held in honor of two major centennials: the foundation of Montpellier University in 1289 and the French Revolution of 1789. The meet ing was one of a series of annual meetings on interdisciplinary aspects of inverse problems organized in Montpellier since 1972 and known as "RCP 264". The meeting was sponsored by the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (con tract GR 264) and by the Direction des Recherches et Etudes Techniques (contract 88 CO 283). The Proceedings are presented by chapters on different topics, ...

The Riemann-Hilbert Problem

The Riemann-Hilbert problem (Hilbert's 21st problem) belongs to the theory of linear systems of ordinary differential equations in the complex domain. The problem concerns the existence of a Fuchsian system with prescribed singularities and monodromy. Hilbert was convinced that such a system always exists. However, this turned out to be a rare case of a wrong forecast made by him. In 1989 the second author (A. B.) discovered a counterexample, thus obtaining a negative solution to Hilbert's 21st problem in its original form.

Algebraic Aspects of Integrable Systems

A collection of articles in memory of Irene Dorfman and her research in mathematical physics. Among the topics covered are: the Hamiltonian and bi-Hamiltonian nature of continuous and discrete integrable equations; the t-function construction; the r-matrix formulation of integrable systems; pseudo-differential operators and modular forms; master symmetries and the Bocher theorem; asymptotic integrability; the integrability of the equations of associativity; invariance under Laplace-darboux transformations; trace formulae of the Dirac and Schrodinger periodic operators; and certain canonical 1-forms.

Integrable And Superintegrable Systems

Some of the most active practitioners in the field of integrable systems have been asked to describe what they think of as the problems and results which seem to be most interesting and important now and are likely to influence future directions. The papers in this collection, representing their authors' responses, offer a broad panorama of the subject as it enters the 1990's.

Solitons in Physics, Mathematics, and Nonlinear Optics

This IMA Volume in Mathematics and its Applications SOLITONS IN PHYSICS, MATHEMATICS, AND NONLINEAR OPTICS is based on the proceedings of two workshops which were an integral part of the 1988-89 IMA program on NONLINEAR WAVES. The workshops focussed on the main parts of the theory of solitons and on the applications of solitons in physics, biology and engineering, with a special concentration on nonlinear optics. We thank the Coordinating Committee: James Glimm, Daniel Joseph, Barbara Keyfitz, An Majda, Alan Newell, Peter Olver, David Sattinger and David Schaeffer for drew planning and implementing the stimulating year-long program. We especially thank the Workshop Organizers for Solitons in...

Mathematics and the 21st Century

The Conference on "Mathematics and the 21st Century" was held in Cairo, Egypt during the period 15-20 January 2000. The conference's sessions consisted of plenary lectures and topical sessions. Some of the plenary lectures covered general fields such as: rewriting the history of mathematics; education of mathematics; relation between mathematics and sciences; and mathematical aspects of transportation.
