Abstract:

In the talk, we will study Hamiltonian perturbations of hyperbolic systems of partial differential equations (PDEs) with one spatial variable. The deformation theory of integrable PDEs will be discussed. We also consider the behaviour of solutions to such systems at the point of "phase transition" from regular to oscillatory regime.
