Weakly Nonlocal Solitary Waves and Beyond-All-Orders Asymptotics (eBook, PDF)

Generalized Solitons and Hyperasymptotic Perturbation Theory

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This is the first thorough examination of weakly nonlocal solitary waves, which are just as important in applications as their classical counterparts. The book describes a class of waves that radiate away from the core of the disturbance but are nevertheless very long-lived nonlinear disturbances.
