This
London
Dynamical Systems Group Graduate School
will provide an introduction to travelling waves in nonlinear dissipative
and conservative systems. It is meant to be accessible to entry-level PhD
students and thus has no non-standard prerequisites. The primary goal of
the four lecture series is to give a broad overview of the main phenomena,
ideas and concepts in this area and to the techniques that are used to study them.
