When soliton theory, based on water waves, plasmas, fiber optics
etc., was developing in the 1960-1970 era it seemed that perhaps
KdV (and a few other equations) were really rather special in the
set of all interesting partial differential equations. As it turns
out, although integrable systems are still special, the
mathematical interaction of integrable systems theory with
virtually all branches of mathematics (and with many currently
developing areas of theoretical physics) illustrates the importance
of this area. This book concentrates on developing the theme of the
tau function. KdV and KP equations are treated extensively, with
material on NLS and AKNS systems, and in following the tau function
theme one is led to conformal field theory, strings, and other
topics in physics. The extensive list of references contains about
1000 entries.
