Standing and traveling waves for nonlinear wave equations

Journal Article · · Transp. Theory Stat. Phys.; (United States)

The aim of this talk will be to present results, many of them obtained jointly with A. Floer, on the existence and stability of standing and traveling wave solutions for nonlinear equations of Schroedinger and Klein-Gordon type. Exphasis will be placed on situations other than the flat, spatially homogeneous ones which have usually been studied in the past; in particular, equations with a potential or with spherical geometry will be considered. The relation between the hamiltonian structures for waves and particles will be discussed.
