Reviews

There is a bibliography of 112 items. This book is pedagogically written and is highly recommended for its detailed description of the resolvent method for soliton equations. Mathematical Reviews, 1993 The book of L A Dickey presents one more point of view on the mathematical theory of solitons or, in other words, on the theory of nonlinear partial differential equations ... The series of joint papers of I M Gelfand and L A Dickey in the middle of the seventies was an important step in the development of the mathematical theory of nonlinear integrable equations ... As a whole the book presents a very good exposition of the important part of the soliton theory. Mathematics Abstracts
