Integrable extensions of N = 2 supersymmetric KdV hierarchy associated with the nonuniqueness of the roots of the Lax operator

We present new supersymmetric integrable extensions of the a = 4, N = 2 KdV hierarchy. The root of the supersymmetric Lax operator of the KdV equation is generalized, by including additional fields. This generalized root generates a new hierarchy of integrable equations, for which we investigate the Hamiltonian structure. In a special case our system describes the interaction of the KdV equation with the two MKdV equations.     

Lie superalgebraic approach to super Toda lattice and generalized super KdV equations

We propose a super Lax type equation based on a certain class of Lie superalgebra as a supersymmetric extension of generalized (modified) KdV hierarchy. We are able to construct an infinite set of conservation laws and the consistent time evolution generators for generalized modified super KdV equations. Thefirst few of the conserved currents, the (modified) super KdV equation and the super Miura transformation are worked out explicitly in the case of twisted affine Lie superalgebraOSp(2/2)⁽²⁾.Partially supported by the Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research from the Ministry of Education, Science and Culture (#01540246 and #01790203).RIFP will be known as Yukawa Institute for Theoretical Physics from June 8, 1990     

Recursion Operators of Two Supersymmetric Equations

From Lax representations, recursion operators for the supersymmetric KdV and the supersymmetric Kaup-Kupershimdt (SKK) equations are proposed explicitly. Under some special conditions, the recursion operator of the supersymmetricSawada-Kotera equation can be recovered by the one of the SKK equation.     

A fully supersymmetric AKNS theory

We construct a fully supersymmetric biHamiltonian theory in four superfields, admitting zero curvature and Lax formulation. This theory is an extension of the classical AKNS, which can be recovered as a reduction. Other supersymmetric theories are obtained as reductions of the susy AKNS, namely a nonlinear Schrödinger, a modified KdV and the Manin-Radul KdV. The susy nonlinear Schrödinger hierarchy is related to the one of Roelofs and Kersten; we determine its biHamiltonian and Lax formulation. Finally, we show that the susy KdV's mentioned before are related through a susy Miura map.     

A Note on the Third Family of N=2 Supersymmetric KdV Hierarchies

Abstract

We propose a hamiltonian formulation of the N = 2 supersymmetric KP type hierarchy recently studied by Krivonos and Sorin. We obtain a quadratic hamiltonian structure which allows for several reductions of the KP type hierarchy. In particular, the third family of N = 2 KdV hierarchies is recovered. We also give an easy construction of Wronskian solutions of the KP and KdV type equations.     

The bi-Hamiltonian structure of fully supersymmetric Korteweg-de Vries systems

The bi-Hamiltonian structure of integrable supersymmetric extensions of the Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation related to theN=1 and theN=2 superconformal algebras is found. It turns out that some of these extensions admit inverse Hamiltonian formulations in terms of presymplectic operators rather than in terms of Poisson tensors. For one extension related to theN=2 case additional symmtries are found with bosonic parts that cannot be reduced to symmetries of the classical KdV. They can be explained by a factorization of the corresponding Lax operator. All the bi-Hamiltonian formulations are derived in a systematic way from the Lax operators.     

ClassicalN=1W-superalgebras from Hamiltonian reduction

A combinatorial proof is presented of the fact that the space of supersymmetric Lax operators admits a Poisson structure analogous to the second Gel'fand-Dickey bracket of the generalized KdV hierarchies. This allows us to prove that the space of Lax operators of odd order has a symplectic submanifold-defined by (anty)symmetric operators-which inherits a Poisson structure defining classicalW-superalgebras extending theN=1 supervirasoro algebra. This construction thus yields an infinite series of extended superconformal algebras.Address after October 1991: Physikalisches Institut der Universität Bonn, FRG     

On the integrable hierarchies associated with the N = 2 super Wn algebra

A new Lax operator is proposed from the viewpoint of constructing the integrable hierarchies related with the N = 2 super W_n algebra. It is shown that the Poisson algebra associated to the second Hamiltonian structure for the resulting hierarchy contains the N = 2 super Virasoro algebra as a proper subalgebra. The simplest cases are discussed in detail. In particular, it is proved that the supersymmetric two-boson hierarchy is one of the N = 2 supersymmetric KdV hierarchies. Also, a Lax operator is supplied for one of the N = 2 supersymmetric Boussinesq hierarchies.     

Painlevé analysis,conservation laws,and symmetry of perturbed nonlinear equations

We consider the Lie-Backlund symmetries and conservation laws of a perturbed KdV equation and NLS equation. The arbitrary coefficients of the perturbing terms can be related to the condition of existence of nontrivial LB symmetry generator. When the perturbed KdV equation is subjected to Painlevé analysisa la Weiss, it is found that the resonance position changes compared to the unperturbed one. We prove the compatibility of the overdetermined set of equations obtained at the different stages of recursion relations, at least for one branch. All other branches are also indicated and difficulties associated them are discussed considering the perturbation parameter to be small. We determine the Lax pair for the aforesaid branch through the use of Schwarzian derivative. For the perturbed NLS equation we determine the conservation laws following the approach of Chen and Liu. From the recurrence of these conservation laws a Lax pair is constructed. But the Painlevé analysis does not produce a positive answer for the perturbed NLS equation. So here we have two contrasting examples of perturbed nonlinear equations: one passes the Painlevé test and its Lax pair can be found from the analysis itself, but the other equation does not meet the criterion of the Painlevé test, though its Lax pair is found in another way.     

Odd Hamiltonian structure for supersymmetric Sawada-Kotera equation

We study the supersymmetric N=1 hierarchy connected with the Lax operator of the supersymmetric Sawada-Kotera equation. This operator produces the physical equations as well as the exotic equations with odd time. The odd Bi-Hamiltonian structure for the N=1 supersymmetric Sawada-Kotera equation is defined. The product of the symplectic and implectic Hamiltonian operator gives us the recursion operator. In that way we prove the integrability of the supersymmetric Sawada-Kotera equation in the sense that it has the Bi-Hamiltonian structure. The so-called “quadratic” Hamiltonian operator of even order generates the exotic equations while the “cubic” odd Hamiltonian operator generates the physical equations.     

A construction of the jet of the resolvent

We consider an equation for the diagonal of the resolvent of matrix differential operators which appears associated to a general Riccati equation. We show that the power series solutions of these equations determines the jet of the resolvent used by Gel'fand and Dikii in the theory of Lax equations. The variational derivatives of such solutions are also calculated.     

The integrability of nonisospectral and variable-coefficient KdV equation with binary Bell polynomials

Binary Bell polynomials are extended to systematically construct bilinear formalism, bilinear Bäcklund transformations, Lax pairs and infinite conservation laws of the nonisospectral and variable-coefficient KdV equation in a quick and natural way. Moreover, the infinite conservation laws are local and obtained through directly decoupling binary Bell polynomials.     

Multiple complex soliton solutions for the integrable KdV,fifth-order Lax,modified KdV,Burgers, and Sharma–Tasso–Olver equations

We show that completely integrable equations give multiple complex soliton solutions in addition to multiple real real soliton solutions. We exhibit complex categories of the simplified Hirota’s method to confirm these new findings. To demonstrate the power of the new complex forms, we test it on integrable KdV, fifth-order Lax, modified KdV, fifth-order modified KdV, Burgers, and Sharma–Tasso–Olver equations.     

Prolongation structure of the variable coefficient KdV equation

The prolongation structure methodologies of Wahlquist--Estabrook [Wahlquist H D and Estabrook F B 1975 J. Math. Phys. 16 1] for nonlinear differential equations are applied to a variable-coefficient KdV equation. Based on the obtained prolongation structure, a Lie algebra with five parameters is constructed. Under certain conditions, a Lie algebra representation and three kinds of Lax pairs for the variable- coefficient KdV equation are derived.     

On Integrability of a (2+1)-Dimensional Perturbed KdV Equation

Abstract

A (2+1)-dimensional perturbed KdV equation, recently introduced by W.X. Ma and B. Fuchssteiner, is proven to pass the Painlevé; test for integrability well, and its 4×4 Lax pair with two spectral parameters is found. The results show that the Painlevé; classification of coupled KdV equations by A. Karasu should be revised.     

On the biHamiltonian structure of the supersymmetric KdV hierarchies. A Lie superalgebraic approach

We give a Lie superalgebraic interpretation of the biHamiltonian structure of known supersymmetric KdV equations. We show that the loop algebra of a Lie superalgebra carries a natural Poisson pencil, and we subsequently deduce the biHamiltonian structure of the supersymmetric KdV hierarchies by applying to loop superalgebras an appropriate reduction technique. This construction can be regarded as a superextension of the Drinfeld-Sokolov method for building a KdV-type hierarchy from a simple Lie algebra.     

Constraints and Soliton Solutions for KdV Hierarchy and AKNS Hierarchy

It is well-known that the finite-gap solutions of the KdV equationcan be generated by its recursion operator.We generalize the result to a special form of Lax pair,from which a method to constrain the integrable system to alower-dimensional or fewer variable integrable system is proposed.A direct result is that the n-soliton solutions of the KdV hierarchy can be completely depictedby a series of ordinary differential equations (ODEs), which may be gotten by a simple but unfamiliar Lax pair. Furthermore the AKNS hierarchy is constrained to a series of univariate integrable hierarchies. The key is a special form of Lax pair for the AKNS hierarchy. It is proved that under the constraints all equations of the AKNS hierarchy are linearizable.     

Two new supersymmetric equations of Harry Dym type and their supersymmetric reciprocal transformations

A new N=1$N=1$ supersymmetric Harry Dym equation is constructed by applying supersymmetric reciprocal transformation to a trivial supersymmetric Harry Dym equation, and its recursion operator and Lax formulation are also obtained. Within the framework of symmetry approach, a class of 3rd order supersymmetric equations of Harry Dym type are considered. In addition to five known integrable equations, a new supersymmetric equation, admitting 5th order generalized symmetry, is shown to be linearizable through supersymmetric reciprocal transformation. Furthermore, its Lax representation and recursion operator are given so that the integrability of this new equation is confirmed.     

An efficient method for computing genus expansions and counting numbers in the Hermitian matrix model

We present a method to compute the genus expansion of the free energy of Hermitian matrix models from the large N expansion of the recurrence coefficients of the associated family of orthogonal polynomials. The method is based on the Bleher–Its deformation of the model, on its associated integral representation of the free energy, and on a method for solving the string equation which uses the resolvent of the Lax operator of the underlying Toda hierarchy. As a byproduct we obtain an efficient algorithm to compute generating functions for the enumeration of labeled k-maps which does not require the explicit expressions of the coefficients of the topological expansion. Finally we discuss the regularization of singular one-cut models within this approach.
