Nonlinear Coherent Structures: Proceedings of the 6th Interdisciplinary Workshop on Nonlinear Coherent Structures in Physics, Mechanics, and Biological Systems Held at Montpellier, France, June 21–23, 1989

Barthes, Mariette; Leon, Jerome

This book is devoted to the applications of the mathematical theory of solitons to physics, statistical mechanics, and molecular biology. It contains contributions on the signature and spectrum of solitons, nonlinear excitations in prebiological systems, experimental and theoretical studies on chains of hydrogen-bonded molecules, nonlinear phenomena in solid-state physics, including charge density waves, nonlinear wave propagation, defects, gap solitons, and Josephson junctions. The content is interdisciplinary in nature and displays the new trends in nonlinear physics.
