►Ablowitz is an applied mathematician who is interested in solutions of nonlinear wave equations.
Certain nonlinear equations are special; e.
…ODEs with the Painlevé property contain the well-known Painlevé equations which are special second order scalar equations; their solutions are often called Painlevé transcendents.
Some of the relationships between IST and Painlevé equations are discussed in two books: Solitons and the Inverse Scattering Transform and Solitons, Nonlinear Evolution Equations and Inverse Scattering.
Widespread interest in Painlevé equations re-emerged in the 1970s and thereafter partially due to the connection with IST and integrable systems.
