This book provides a comprehensive exposition of a new way of counting (countable) infinite sets, in particular, numerosities that maintain the ancient Aristotle's principle: "The whole is larger than its parts." It also contains an original introduction to nonstandard analysis. The basic principles are presented in an elementary way by using the ordinary language of mathematics. This is to be contrasted with other introductions, where technical notions from logic are used which are not familiar to most mathematicians.
This book is the result of a scientific collaboration among different...

The book analyzes the existence of solitons, namely of finite energy solutions of field equations which exhibit stability properties. The book is divided in two parts. In the first part, the authors give an abstract definition of solitary wave and soliton and we develop an abstract existence theory for hylomorphic solitons, namely for those solitons which minimize the energy for a given charge. In the second part, the authors apply this theory to prove the existence of hylomorphic solitons for some classes of field equations (nonlinear Klein-Gordon-Maxwell equations, nonlinear...
