7. 5. Geometric Methods for some Nonlinear Wave Equations

   Author : Jonatan Lenells; Matematik (naturvetenskapliga fakulteten); []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Natural science; Geodesic flow; Nonlinear wave equations; Geometric methods; Naturvetenskap;

   Abstract : A number of results related to the geometric interpretation of some dispersive nonlinear wave equations are presented. It is first described how some well-known shallow water equations arise geometrically as Euler equations for the geodesic flow on the Virasoro group endowed with certain right-invariant metrics.
