Whether a wave that travels while holding its shape stays intact without breaking down, studied through nonlinear partial differential equations.

AboutAbout the lab
Checking with equations whether a wave holds its shape
Prof. Maeda studies nonlinear partial differential equations.
A central theme is whether a wave that travels while keeping its shape (a soliton) remains intact after being perturbed (asymptotic stability).
The work deals with equations such as the nonlinear Schrödinger equation and the Klein-Gordon equation.
Key terms
- Nonlinear partial differential equation
- Among equations relating a function of several variables to its rates of change, one for which the superposition of solutions does not hold
- Soliton
- A wave that keeps traveling without losing its shape
- Asymptotic stability
- The property that, even when slightly perturbed, a system approaches its original state as time passes
ResearchResearch themes
The professor specializes in nonlinear partial differential equations.
