Positive and Negative Hierarchies of Integrable Lattice Models Associated with a Hamiltonian Pair

A difference Hamiltonian operator involving two arbitrary constants is presented, and it is used to construct a pair of nondegenerate Hamiltonian operators. The resulting Hamiltonian pair yields two difference hereditary operators, and the associated positive and negative hierarchies of nonlinear integrable lattice models are derived through the bi-Hamiltonian formulation. Moreover, the two lattice hierarchies are proved to have discrete zero curvature representations associated with a discrete spectral problem, which also shows that the positive and negative hierarchies correspond to positive and negative power expansions of Lax operators with respect to the spectral parameter, respectively. The use of zero curvature equation leads us to conclude that all resulting integrable lattice models are local and that the integrable lattice models in the positive hierarchy are of polynomial type and the integrable lattice models in the negative hierarchy are of rational type.

Integrable Hierarchy Covering the Lattice Burgers Equation in Fluid Mechanics: N-fold Darboux Transformation and Conservation Laws

Burgers-type equations can describe some phenomena in fluids, plasmas, gas dynamics, traffic, etc. In this paper, an integrable hierarchy covering the lattice Burgers equation is derived from a discrete spectral problem. N-fold Darboux transformation (DT) and conservation laws for the lattice Burgers equation are constructed based on its Lax pair. N-soliton solutions in the form of Vandermonde-like determinant are derived via the resulting DT with symbolic computation, structures of which are shown graphically. Coexistence of the elastic-inelastic interaction among the three solitons is firstly reported for the lattice Burgers equation, even if the similar phenomenon for certern continuous systems is known. Results in this paper might be helpful for understanding some ecological problems describing the evolution of competing species and the propagation of nonlinear waves in fluids.
