Nonlinear Partial Differential Equation
In mathematics and physics, a nonlinear partial differential equation is a partial differential equation with nonlinear terms. They describe many different physical systems, ranging from gravitation to fluid dynamics, and have been used in mathematics to solve problems such as the Poincaré conjecture and the Calabi conjecture. They are difficult to study: almost no general techniques exist that work for all such equations, and usually each individual equation has to be studied as a separate problem. The distinction between a linear and a nonlinear partial differential equation is usually made in terms of the properties of the operator that defines the PDE itself. Methods for studying nonlinear partial differential equations Existence and uniqueness of solutions A fundamental question for any PDE is the existence and uniqueness of a solution for given boundary conditions. For nonlinear equations these questions are in general very hard: for example, the hardest part of Yau's sol ...

Camassa–Holm Equation
In fluid dynamics, the Camassa–Holm equation is the integrable, dimensionless and non-linear partial differential equation : u_t + 2\kappa u_x - u_ + 3 u u_x = 2 u_x u_ + u u_. \, The equation was introduced by Roberto Camassa and Darryl Holm as a bi-Hamiltonian model for waves in shallow water, and in this context the parameter ''κ'' is positive and the solitary wave solutions are smooth solitons. In the special case that ''κ'' is equal to zero, the Camassa–Holm equation has peakon solutions: solitons with a sharp peak, so with a discontinuity at the peak in the wave slope. Relation to waves in shallow water The Camassa–Holm equation can be written as the system of equations: : \begin u_t + u u_x + p_x &= 0, \\ p - p_ &= 2 \kappa u + u^2 + \frac \left( u_x \right)^2, \end with ''p'' the (dimensionless) pressure or surface elevation. This shows that the Camassa–Holm equation is a model for shallow water waves with non-hydrostatic pressure and a water la ...

Degasperis–Procesi Equation
In mathematical physics, the Degasperis–Procesi equation : \displaystyle u_t - u_ + 2\kappa u_x + 4u u_x = 3 u_x u_ + u u_ is one of only two Exactly solvable model, exactly solvable equations in the following family of third-Order (differential equation), order, non-linear, dispersive PDEs: :\displaystyle u_t - u_ + 2\kappa u_x + (b+1)u u_x = b u_x u_ + u u_, where \kappa and ''b'' are real parameters (''b''=3 for the Degasperis–Procesi equation). It was discovered by Degasperis and Procesi in a search for Integrable system, integrable equations similar in form to the Camassa–Holm equation, which is the other integrable equation in this family (corresponding to ''b''=2); that those two equations are the only integrable cases has been verified using a variety of different integrability tests. Although discovered solely because of its mathematical properties, the Degasperis–Procesi equation (with \kappa > 0) has later been found to play a similar role in water wave theory ...

Davey–Stewartson Equation
In fluid dynamics, the Davey–Stewartson equation (DSE) was introduced in a paper by to describe the evolution of a three-dimensional wave-packet on water of finite depth. It is a system of partial differential equations for a complex ( wave-amplitude) field u\, and a real ( mean-flow) field \phi\,: :i u_t + c_0 u_ + u_ = c_1 , u, ^2 u + c_2 u \phi_x,\, :\phi_ + c_3 \phi_ = ( , u, ^2 )_x.\, The DSE is an example of a soliton equation in 2+1 dimensions. The corresponding Lax representation for it is given in . In 1+1 dimensions the DSE reduces to the nonlinear Schrödinger equation :i u_t + u_ + 2k , u, ^2 u =0.\, Itself, the DSE is the particular reduction of the Zakharov–Schulman system. On the other hand, the equivalent counterpart of the DSE is the Ishimori equation. The DSE is the result of a multiple-scale analysis of modulated nonlinear surface gravity waves, propagating over a horizontal sea bed.

Calabi Conjecture
In the mathematical field of differential geometry, the Calabi conjecture was a conjecture about the existence of certain kinds of Riemannian metrics on certain complex manifolds, made by . It was proved by , who received the Fields Medal and Oswald Veblen Prize in Geometry, Oswald Veblen Prize in part for his proof. His work, principally an analysis of an elliptic partial differential equation known as the Monge–Ampère equation, complex Monge–Ampère equation, was an influential early result in the field of geometric analysis. More precisely, Calabi's conjecture asserts the resolution of the prescribed Ricci curvature problem within the setting of Kähler metrics on closed manifold, closed complex manifolds. According to Chern–Weil theory, the Ricci form of any such metric is a differential form, closed differential 2-form which represents the first Chern class. Calabi conjectured that for any such differential form , there is exactly one Kähler metric in each Kähler geome ...

Combustion
Combustion, or burning, is a high-temperature exothermic redox chemical reaction between a fuel (the reductant) and an oxidant, usually atmospheric oxygen, that produces oxidized, often gaseous products, in a mixture termed as smoke. Combustion does not always result in fire, because a flame is only visible when substances undergoing combustion vaporize, but when it does, a flame is a characteristic indicator of the reaction. While the activation energy must be overcome to initiate combustion (e.g., using a lit match to light a fire), the heat from a flame may provide enough energy to make the reaction self-sustaining. Combustion is often a complicated sequence of elementary radical reactions. Solid fuels, such as wood and coal, first undergo endothermic pyrolysis to produce gaseous fuels whose combustion then supplies the heat required to produce more of them. Combustion is often hot enough that incandescent light in the form of either glowing or a flame is prod ...

Clarke's Equation
In combustion, Clarke's equation is a third-order nonlinear partial differential equation, first derived by John Frederick Clarke in 1978.Clarke, J. F. (1982). "Non-steady Gas Dynamic Effects in the Induction Domain Behind a Strong Shock Wave", College of Aeronautics report. 8229, Cranfield Inst. of Tech. https://repository.tudelft.nl/view/aereports/uuid%3A9c064b5f-97b4-4527-a97e-a805d5e1abd7 The equation describes the thermal explosion process, including both effects of constant-volume and constant-pressure processes, as well as the effects of adiabatic and isothermal sound speeds. The equation reads as :(\theta_t-\gamma e^)_=(\theta_t-e^\theta)_ where \theta is the non-dimensional temperature perturbation and \gamma is the specific heat ratio. The term \theta_t-e^\theta describes the explosion at constant pressure and the term \theta_t-\gamma e^\theta describes the explosion at constant volume. Similarly, the term (\ )_-(\ )_ describes the wave propagation at adiabatic sound sp ...

Differential Geometry
Differential geometry is a mathematical discipline that studies the geometry of smooth shapes and smooth spaces, otherwise known as smooth manifolds. It uses the techniques of differential calculus, integral calculus, linear algebra and multilinear algebra. The field has its origins in the study of spherical geometry as far back as antiquity. It also relates to astronomy, the geodesy of the Earth, and later the study of hyperbolic geometry by Lobachevsky. The simplest examples of smooth spaces are the plane and space curves and surfaces in the three-dimensional Euclidean space, and the study of these shapes formed the basis for development of modern differential geometry during the 18th and 19th centuries. Since the late 19th century, differential geometry has grown into a field concerned more generally with geometric structures on differentiable manifolds. A geometric structure is one which defines some notion of size, distance, shape, volume, or other rigidifying st ...

Clairaut Equation
In mathematical analysis, Clairaut's equation (or the Clairaut equation) is a differential equation of the form :y(x)=x\frac+f\left(\frac\right) where ''f'' is continuously differentiable. It is a particular case of the Lagrange differential equation. It is named after the French mathematician Alexis Clairaut, who introduced it in 1734. Definition To solve Clairaut's equation, one differentiates with respect to ''x'', yielding :\frac=\frac+x\frac+f'\left(\frac\right)\frac, so :\left +f'\left(\frac\right)\rightfrac = 0. Hence, either :\frac = 0 or :x+f'\left(\frac\right) = 0. In the former case, ''C'' = ''dy''/''dx'' for some constant ''C''. Substituting this into the Clairaut's equation, one obtains the family of straight line functions given by :y(x)=Cx+f(C),\, the so-called ''general solution'' of Clairaut's equation. The latter case, :x+f'\left(\frac\right) = 0, defines only one solution ''y''(''x''), the so-called '' singular solution'', whose graph is the en ...
