Abstract
We present the inverse scattering method which provides a means of solution of the initial-value problem for a broad class of nonlinear evolution equations. Special cases include the sine-Gordon equation, the sinh-Gordon equation, the Benney-Newell equation, the Korteweg-de Vries equation, the modified Korteweg-de Vries equation, and generalizations.
