Solitons in two-dimensional shallow water /

"Web-like waves, often observed on the surface of shallow water, are examples of nonlinear waves. They are generated by nonlinear interactions among several obliquely propagating solitary waves, also known as solitons. In this book, modern mathematical tools--algebraic geometry, algebraic combi...
