Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations [PDF]
, 2012 In this chapter we consider geometric partial differential equations, which appear for two-dimensional surfaces in their state of equilibrium. Here we give the differential-geometric foundations in Section 1 and determine in Section 2 the Euler equations of 2-dimensional, parametric functionals. In Section 3 we present the theory of characteristics for

Generalized Eigenproblem And Nonlinear Elliptic Equations With Nonlinear Boundary Conditions [PDF]
, 2012 We are concerned with the solvability of nonlinear second-order elliptic partial differential equations with nonlinear boundary conditions. We study the generalized Steklov-Robin eigenproblem (with possibly singular weights) in which the spectral ...

On a complex differential Riccati equation [PDF]
, 2007 We consider a nonlinear partial differential equation for complex-valued functions which is related to the two-dimensional stationary Schrodinger equation and enjoys many properties similar to those of the ordinary differential Riccati equation as, e.g.,

Oscillatory processes in the theory of particulate formation in supersaturated chemical solutions [PDF]
, 1975 We study a nonlinear problem which occurs in the theory of particulate formation in supersaturated chemical solutions. Mathematically, the problem involves the bifurcation of time-periodic solutions in an initial-boundary value problem involving a ...

B\"acklund transformations for nonlinear evolution equations: Hilbert space approach [PDF]
, 1992 A new method of determining B\"acklund transformations for nonlinear partial differential equations of the evolution type is introduced. Using the Hilbert space approach the problem of finding B\"acklund transformations is brought down to the solution of
