Description:... This volume looks at the Gross-Pitaevskii equation, an example of a defocusing nonlinear Schrodinger equation, which is a model for phenomena such as the Bose-Einstein condensation of ultra cold atomic gases, the superfluidity of Helium II, and the 'dark solitons' of nonlinear optics.
