Backlund and Darboux Transformations - Rogers, C. (University of New South Wales, Sydney) a Schief, W. K. (University of New South Wales, Sydney)

This book explores the profound connections between a ubiquitous class of physically important waves known as solitons and the theory of transformations of a privileged class of surfaces. Punctuated with exercises, it is suitable for use in higher undergraduate or graduate level courses directed at applied mathematicians or mathematical physics.
