Abstract
In one-dimensional mathematical physics we know three successful lines of development: the Bethe — Hulthen theory of quantum magnetics, the Onsager — Baxter theory of planar models in statistical mechanics and the Gardner — Greene — Kruskal — Miura — Zakharov — Shabat inverse scattering method in classical field theory. Recently it has been realized that after quantization of the latter method, a unified approach to all three of these lines emerges. This new method — the quantum inverse method or quantum scattering transformation (QST) — is now three years old and continues to develop rapidly in several centers (Leningrad Steklov Institute, Fermilab, Batavia, Freiburg University, etc.). There exist several surveys of the basic ideas of QST1), 2), 3), 4). In this text I shall mention some very recent developments made in the Leningrad group. Needless to say, their authors helped me in compiling this review.
