Title: Some PDE results of Aubry-Mather type

Abstract: We will survey results for a class of PDE's of the form
-Δ u + Fu(x,u)=0
for x in Rn and F in C2(Tn+1). Studies initiated by Moser and furthered by Bangert and others show (PDE) has a rich family of single and multi-transition solutions that we will describe.
