NONLINEAR EVOLUTION EQUATIONS AND DYNAMICAL SYSTEMS
Proceedings of the ICM2002 Satellite Conference
Yellow Mountains, China 15 - 18 August 2002

edited by Cheng Yi, Hu Sen, Li Yishen (University of Science & Technology of China) & Peng Chiakuei (Chinese Academy of Sciences)

This book contains the papers presented at the ICM2002 Satellite Conference on Nonlinear Evolution Equations and Dynamical Systems. About 50 mathematicians and scientists attended the meeting — including E Witten (IAS), C Nappi (Princeton), K Khanin (Cambridge), D Phong (Columbia), d'Hoker (UCLA) and Peng Chiakuei (CAS). The book covers several fields, such as nonlinear evolution equations and integrable systems, infinite-dimensional algebra, conformal field theory and geometry.

The proceedings have been selected for coverage in:

  • Index to Scientific & Technical Proceedings (ISTP CDROM version / ISI Proceedings)


Contents:

  • Global Bifurcation from the Eigenvalues of Some Semi-Linear Biharmonic Equations (Z-C Chen & K Zhao)
