About the Authors
  • Bose–Einstein condensation is a phase transition in which a fraction of particles of a boson gas condenses into the same quantum state known as the Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC). This book, a broad study of nonlinear excitations in self-defocusing nonlinear media, presents a wide array of findings in the realm of BECs and on the nonlinear Schrödinger-type models that arise therein. It summarizes state-of-the-art knowledge on the defocusing nonlinear Schrödinger-type models in a single volume and contains a wealth of resources, including over 800 references to relevant articles and monographs and a meticulous index for ease of navigation. This book is intended for atomic and condensed-matter physicists, nonlinear scientists, and applied mathematicians. It will be equally valuable to beginners and experienced researchers in these fields.
