Applications of Lie Algebras to Hyperbolic and Stochastic Differential Equations

The main part of the book is based on a one semester graduate course for students in mathematics. I have attempted to develop the theory of hyperbolic systems of differen­ tial equations in a systematic way, making as much use as possible ofgradient systems and their algebraic representation. Howeve...
