Nonlinear And Modern Mathematical Physics Proceedings Of The First International Workshop

The volume is very beneficial to both starting and experienced researchers working in the field of integrable nonlinear equations, soliton theory, and nonlinear waves. It will be an excellent reference book for graduate students majoring in mathematical physics and engineering sciences. This volume covers a broad range of current interesting topics in nonlinear and modern mathematical physics, and reviews recent developments in integrable systems, soliton theory and nonlinear dynamics. The book is suitable for both starting and experienced researchers working in nonlinear sciences, and it is a good reference for students of mathematical, physical and engineering sciences.

The COPROMAPH Conference series has now evolved into a significant international arena where fundamental concepts in mathematical and theoretical physics and their applications can be conceived, developed and disseminated. The contributions in this volume address a variety of contemporary problems in mathematical and theoretical physics.

The topics discussed include recent developments in operator theory and orthogonal polynomials, coherent states and wavelet analysis, geometric methods in theoretical physics and quantum field theory, and the application of these methods of mathematical physics to problems in atomic and molecular physics as well as the world of the elementary particles and their fundamental interactions. This volume should be of interest to anyone working in a field using the mathematical methods of any of these general topics.

On the occasion of the 150th anniversary of Sophus Lie, an International Work shop "Modern Group Analysis: advanced analytical and computational methods in mathematical physics" has been organized in Acireale (Catania, Sicily, October 27 31, 1992). The Workshop was aimed to enlighten the present state ofthis rapidly expanding branch of applied mathematics. Main topics of the Conference were: • classical Lie groups applied for constructing invariant solutions and conservation laws; • conditional (partial) symmetries; • Backlund transformations; • approximate symmetries; • group analysis of finite-difference equations; • problems of group classification; • software packages in group analysis. The success of the Workshop was due to the participation of many experts in Group Analysis from different countries. This book consists of selected papers presented at the Workshop. We would like to thank the Scientific Committee for the generous support of recommending invited lectures and selecting the papers for this volume, as well as the members of the Organizing Committee for their help. The Workshop was made possible by the financial support of several sponsors that are listed below. It is also a pleasure to thank our colleague Enrico Gregorio for his invaluable help of this volume.
