The formation and evolution of complex dynamical structures is one
of the most exciting areas of nonlinear physics. Such pattern
formation problems are common in practically all systems involving
a large number of interacting components. Here, the basic problem
is to understand how competing physical forces can shape stable
geometries and to explain why nature prefers just these. Motivation
for the intensive study of pattern formation phenomena during the
past few years derives from an increasing appreciation of the
remarkable diversity of behaviour encountered in nonlinear systems
and of universal features shared by entire classes of nonlinear
processes. As physics copes with ever more ambi tious problems in
pattern formation, summarizing our present state of knowledge
becomes a pressing issue. This volume presents an overview of
selected topics in this field of current interest. It deals with
theoretical models of pattern formation and with simulations that
bridge the gap between theory and experiment. The book is a product
of the International Symposium on the Physics of Structure
Formation, held from October 27 through November 2, 1986, at the
Institute for Information Sciences of the University of Tiibingen.
The symposium brought together a group of distinguished scientists
from various disciplines to exchange ideas about recent advances in
pattern formation in the physical sciences, and also to introduce
young scientists to the fi"
