Differential equations with soliton behaviour

Various non-linear wave equations are found to possess solitons - stable solitary waves which only undergo a change of position on collision with each other. It is shown in chapter 1, how the various soliton properties of the sine-Gordon equation, u(_xy) = F(u) sin u, May be derived from its Backlun...
