Solitons in Field Theory and Nonlinear Analysis (Springer Monographs in Mathematics)

There are two approaches in the study of differential equations of field theory. The first, finding closed-form solutions, works only for a narrow category of problems. This book focuses on the second, which is to investigate solutions using tools from modern nonlinear analysis. Written by a well known active researcher, this book is useful to both mathematicians and theoretical physicists, especially those interested in nonlinear analysis.
