The Nonlinear Schrödinger Equation : Self-Focusing and Wave Collapse (Applied Mathematical Sciences Vol.139) (1999. XVI, 350 p. w. 9 figs. 24,5 cm)

Filling the gap between the mathematical literature and applications to domains, this title addresses the problem of wave collapse by several methods ranging from rigorous mathematical analysis to formal aymptotic expansions and numerical simulations.
