When the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute was started in the Fall of 1982, one of the programs was "non-linear partial differential equations". A seminar was organized whose audienc …

This book gives a treatment of exterior differential systems. It will in- clude both the general theory and various applications. An exterior differential system is a system of equations on a manifol …
