Overview

This work is a practical guide to solitons. These waves of large amplitude propagate over long distances without dispersing and therefore show perhaps one of the most striking aspects of nonlinearity. The author addresses students and practitioners, approaching the subject from the standpoint of applications in optics, hydrodynamics, and electrical and chemical engineering. The book also encourages the readers to perform their own experiments. This edition includes material on nonlinear transmission lines, various forms of modulation instabilities, and quantum optical solutions.
