Applications of NSA to Mathematical Physics

  • Chapter
Nonstandard Analysis

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((ASIC,volume 493))

Abstract

I will here present three applications of nonstandard techniques to the analysis of models in mathematical physics. The first provides an answer to a longstanding (standard) question about the stability of a functional equation arising in kinetic theory. It has relevance for a wide range of problems in the theoretical and numerical studies of rarefied gases.
