Paperback. This first introductory text to discrete integrable systems introduces key notions of integrability from the vantage point of discrete systems, also making connections with the continuous theory where relevant. While treating the material at an elementary level, the book also highlights many recent developments. Topics include: Darboux and Baecklund transformations; difference equations and special functions; multidimensional consistency of integrable lattice equations; associated linear problems (Lax pairs); connections with Pade approximants and convergence algorithms; singularities and geometry; Hirota's bilinear formalism for lattices; intriguing properties of discrete Painleve equations; and the novel theory of Lagrangian multiforms. The book builds the material in an organic way, emphasizing interconnections between the various approaches, while the exposition is mostly done through explicit computations on key examples. Written by respected experts in the field, the numerous exercises and the thorough list of references will benefit upper-level undergraduate, and beginning graduate students as well as researchers from other disciplines. The first introductory text on a topic of interdisciplinary science that has undergone major development in recent years. Written by respected experts in the field and including numerous exercises and notes on further reading, this book will benefit upper-level and beginning graduate students as well as researchers from other disciplines. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.…

About the Author
N. Joshi is Professor of Applied Mathematics at the University of Sydney. She is best known for her work on the Painlevé equations and works at the leading edge of international efforts to analyse discrete and continuous integrable systems in the geometric setting of their initial-value spaces, constructed by resolving singularities in complex projective space. She was elected as a Fellow of the Australian Academy of Science in 2008, holds a Georgina Sweet Australian Laureate Fellowship and was awarded the special Hardy Fellowship of the London Mathematical Society in 2015.
F. W. Nijhoff is Professor of Mathematical Physics in the School of Mathematics at the University of Leeds. His research focuses on nonlinear difference and differential equations, symmetries and integrability of discrete systems, variational calculus, quantum integrable systems and linear and nonlinear special functions. He was the principal organizer of the 2009 six-month programme on Discrete Integrable Systems at the Isaac Newton Institute, and was awarded a Royal Society Leverhulme Trust Senior Research Fellow in 2011.
