The subject of nonlinear partial differential equations is
experiencing a period of intense activity in the study of systems
underlying basic theories in geometry, topology and physics. These
mathematical models share the property of being derived from
variational principles. Understanding the structure of critical
configurations and the dynamics of the corresponding evolution
problems is of fundamental importance for the development of the
physical theories and their applications. This volume contains
survey lectures in four different areas, delivered by leading
resarchers at the 1995 Barrett Lectures held at The University of
Tennessee: nonlinear hyperbolic systems arising in field theory and
relativity (S. Klainerman); harmonic maps from Minkowski spacetime
(M. Struwe); dynamics of vortices in the Ginzburg-Landau model of
superconductivity (F.-H. Lin); the Seiberg-Witten equations and
their application to problems in four-dimensional topology (R.
Fintushel). Most of this material has not previously been available
in survey form. These lectures provide an up-to-date overview and
an introduction to the research literature in each of these areas,
which should prove useful to researchers and graduate students in
mathematical physics, partial differential equations, differential
geometry and topology.
