Approximations for the Inverse Scattering Transform

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Springer Series in Synergetics ((SSSYN,volume 30))

Abstract

What I would like to present here is a discussion of some of the various techniques and approximations which have been found to be useful in the IST (inverse scattering transform) [1]. Although the IST is an exact method, its complexity does require that one be able to make use of some approximations. And while I shall be discussing approximations, let me note that I also shall be emphasizing the methods and not the mathematical details.
