Density waves in the nature of those proposed by B. Lindblad are described by detailed mathematical analysis of collective modes in a disk-like stellar system. The treatment is centered around a hypothesis of quasi-stationary spiral structure. We examine (a) the mechanism for the maintenance of this spiral pattern, and (b) its consequences on the observable features of the galaxy.

This review describes work on the evolution of a stellar system during the phase which starts at the end of core collapse. It begins with an account of the models of Hénon, Goodman, and Inagaki and Lynden-Bell, as well as evaporative models, and modifications to these models which are needed in the core. Next, these models are related to more detailed numerical calculations of gaseous models, Fokker-Planck models, N-body calculations, etc., and some problems for further work in these directions are outlined. The review concludes with a discussion of the relation between theoretical models and observations of the surface density profiles and statistics of actual globular clusters.
