The author focuses on specific aspects of integrability that are often encountered in a variety of problems in applied mathematics, physics and engineering. The following general cases of integrability are examined: (a) path-independence of line integrals of vector fields on the plane and in space; (b) integration of a system of ordinary differential equations by using first integrals; and (c) integrable systems of partial differential equations. Special topics include the integration of analytic functions and some elements from the geometric theory of differential systems. Certain more advanced subjects, such as Lax pairs and Bäcklund transformations, are also discussed. The book is written at an intermediate level for educational purposes. The presentation is as simple as the topics allow, often sacrificing mathematical rigor in favor of pedagogical efficiency. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Physics,$x2191-5423 606 $aPhysics 606 $aMathematical physics 606 $aDifferential equations 606 $aPartial differential equations 606 $aMathematical Methods in Physics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19013 606 $aMathematical Physics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M35000 606 $aOrdinary Differential Equations$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M12147 606 $aPartial Differential Equations$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M12155 615 0$aPhysics. 615 0$aMathematical physics. 615 0$aDifferential equations. 615 0$aPartial differential equations. 615 14$aMathematical Methods in Physics. 615 24$aMathematical Physics. 615 24$aOrdinary Differential Equations. 615 24$aPartial Differential Equations. 676 $a515.45 700 $aPapachristou$b Costas J$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0843154 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910736995903321 996 $aAspects of Integrability of Differential Systems and Fields$92530731 997 $aUNINA
