Mathematical Sciences: Regional Conference on Nonlinear Dispersive Wave Systems at Orlando, Florida on December 17-21, 1990

该项目是一个CBMS区域会议， 数学科学：非线性色散波 系统”。 本次会议将在大学举行。 佛罗里达中部，1990年12月。 这一领域最近受到以下发展的推动： 在许多科学和工程领域的实际需要，以及 新的思想不断涌现，给了它更大的推动力。 这些 包括富有成效的使用代数技术，扩展 本雅明的稳定性理论，更多地依赖于哈密尔顿 公式，使用计算技术作为一个 调查工具，和新的扰动理论， 可积系统 本杰明教授将提出一个统一的 数学处理领域的经典方面，如 以及关于流体动力稳定性和不稳定性的新结果。

This project is a CBMS Regional Conference in the Mathematical Sciences entitled "Non-linear Dispersive Wave Systems". This conference will be held at the University of Central Florida in December, 1990. This field has recently been spurred by developments of practical necessity in many areas of science and engineering, and new ideas have surfaced, giving it yet further impetus. These include fruitful use of algebraic techniques, the extension of Benjamin's stability theory, more reliance on Hamiltonian formulations, the use of computational techniques as an investigative tool, and the new perturbation theories for integrable systems. Professor Benjamin will present a unified mathematical treatment of the classical aspects of the field, as well as new results on hydrodynamic stability and instability.
