Description:
This monograph fits theclearlyneed for books with a rigorous treatment of theinverse problems for non-classical systems and that of initial-boundary-value problems for integrable nonlinear equations. The authorsdevelop a unified treatment of explicit and global solutions via the transfer matrix function in a form due to Lev A. Sakhnovich. The book primarily addresses specialists in the field. However, it is self-contained andstarts with preliminaries and examples, and hencealso serves as an introduction for advanced graduate students in the field
