Description
Book SynopsisThis textbook introduces the well-posedness theory for initial-value problems of nonlinear, dispersive partial differential equations, with special focus on two key models, the Korteweg–de Vries equation and the nonlinear Schrödinger equation.
Trade Review“This is the second edition of a self-contained graduate level introduction to the results and methods in the well-posedness theory for initial-value problems of nonlinear dispersive equations with special focus on the nonlinear Schrödinger and Korteweg de Vries equations. … I strongly welcome this updated version and I can only recommend it warmly to anybody (both students and teachers) interested in this central area of analysis.” (G. Teschl, Monatshefte für Mathematik, Vol. 180, 2016)
