International Conference: Nonlinear Waves--Theory and Applications

 MINISYMPOSIA
 

Nonlinear waves and integrability
Organizers:

B. Pelloni
: University of Reading UK

In this minisymposium, the focus will be the analysis of nonlinear PDEs describing wave phenomena that can be analysed by the inverse scattering and related transforms, in particular the extension due to Fokas. Recent results in the solution of boundary value problems and the extension to multidimension will be presented and discussed alongside recent results for KdV type models obtained by standard PDE techniques.
