Solitons are waves that retain their form through obstacle and distance. Solitons can be found in hydrodynamics, nonlinear optics, plasma physics, and biology.
The current research into solitons and their use in fiber optic communications is very important to the future of communications. Since the advent of computer n
Solitons--waves that do not disperse as they travel through a medium--are the most recent and perhaps the most remarkable development in the revolution in telec
Since the 3rd edition appeared, a fast evolution of the field has occurred. The fourth edition of this classic work provides an up-to-date account of the nonlin
Authored by internationally recognized experts on optical solitons, this book addresses the forefront of technology in the important field of optical communicat
