The study of dissipative solitons is not only increasing our understanding of nonlinear systems but may also help develop high-performance short-pulse lasers and devices for optical information ...

The presentation is clear and well structured, so that novices wishing to move into inverse scattering and solitons will find this book to be a useful introduction to these modern techniques." Walter ...

This book summarizes major advances in critical solitons in supersymmetric theories, and their implications for understanding basic dynamical regularities of non-supersymmetric theories. After an ...

It was observed that the breather solution looked a lot like a bound state of two kinks. That is, two kinks oscillating about one another. A bound state of two kinks ...
