Solitons have been of considerable interest to mathematicians since their discovery by Kruskal and Zabusky. This book brings together several aspects of soliton theory currently only available in research papers. Emphasis is given to the multi-dimensional problems arising and includes inverse scattering in multi-dimensions, integrable nonlinear evolution equations in multi-dimensions and the method. Thus, this book will be a valuable addition to the growing literature in the area and essential reading for all researchers in the field of soliton theory.

Reviews
'It is valuable in bridging the diverse approaches to the subject by analysts and algebraic geometeers ... Their book is a well-ordered treasure-house of ancient and modern work ... essential for all specialists on integrable systems and for all major mathematical libraries.' LSM
