SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Over the past 30 years, significant advances have been made in the field of integrable systems and their applications in statistical mechanics and mathematical physics, yet no book on the subject has been published since 1993. This monograph, the work of established authors in quantum mechanics, introduces the subject in a clear, logical way. The treatment first builds the background in classical physics and nonlinear systems, then moves to the quantum case before presenting the latest research and applications. The authors' clear approach and examples based on concrete physical models rather.
