摘要
This article serves as an introduction to the special edition of Solitons and Symmetries in the Journal of Engineering Mathematics. Solitons, by their mathematical nature, are deeply connected to underlying symmetries of nonlinear equations. Described in this introduction is an historical and applications overview, with special emphasis directed at the technologically interesting field of soliton communications in fibre optics. A brief discussion of the papers contained in this special edition is included.
