Mathematical problems concerning time evolution of solutions related to nonlinear systems modelling dynamics of continuous media are of great interest both in wave propagation and in stability problems. During the last few decades many striking developments have taken place, especially in connection with the effects of nonlinearity of the equations describing physical situations. The articles in this book have been written by reputable specialists in the field and represent a valuable contribution to its advancement. The topics are: discontinuity and shock waves; linear and nonlinear stability in fluid dynamics; kinetic theories and comparison with continuum models; propagation and non-equilibrium thermodynamics; exact solutions via group methods; numerical applications.

“Takes a novel angle on Cosimo [de Medici]’s rise to power by telling the story of his mistress, the Circassian slave Maddalena . . . an incomparable cast.” —Historical Novel Society Ever-loyal Maddalena, a diminutive, dark-skinned, blue-eyed slave, has borne Cosimo de Medici a son and seen him rise to a position in the Church. Now, late in life, she finds herself committed to a convent, as part of a scheme to prevent Cosimo’s sons from sending the Medici bank into ruin by hiding a fortune in gold for Cosimo’s grandson, Lorenzo, to inherit. But as the months go by, and the gold does not appear, her faith in Cosimo begins to wane and with it, her confidence in her own worth. Has s...
