First edition of volume one of the selected papers of the legendary mathematician Peter Lax. Octavo, original cloth. Presentation copy, inscribed by the author on the title page, "For John Roger with best regards Peter D. Lax." In near fine condition. Edited by Peter Sarnak and Andrew Majda. Rare and desirable signed and inscribed. Peter Lax has made important contributions to integrable systems, fluid dynamics and shock waves, solitonic physics, hyperbolic conservation laws, and mathematical and scientific computing, among other fields. Lax is listed as an ISI highly cited researcher. According to Gyà rgy Marx he was one of The Martians. In a 1958 paper Lax stated a conjecture about matrix representations for third order hyperbolic polynomials which remained unproven for over four decades. Interest in the "Lax conjecture" grew as mathematicians working in several different areas recognized the importance of its implications in their field, until it was finally proven to be true in 2003. Lax won a Lester R. Ford Award in 1966 and again in 1973. He was awarded the National Medal of Science in 1986, the Wolf Prize in 1987, the Abel Prize in 2005 and the Lomonosov Gold Medal in 2013.
