<DIV>Aะย Nobel Prize-winning astrophysicist investigates two areas. The first concerns problems in which the time of relaxation of a stellar system is central. The second examines problems centering around Liouville's theorem and the solutions of the equation of continuity.</DIV>
<p>Recent advances in our understanding of instabilities in galactic type systems have led to an unravelling of some of the mysteries of what determines the form galaxies take. This book focuses on the mathematical development of the subject, assuming no prior knowledge of it, with a strong emphasis
