A Super mKdV Equation: Bosonization,Painlevé Property and Exact Solutions

The symmetry of the fermionic field is obtained by means of the Lax pair of the mKdV equation. A new super mKdV equation is constructed by virtue of the symmetry of the fermionic form. The super mKdV system is changed to a system of coupled bosonic equations with the bosonization approach. The bosonized SmKdV(BSmKdV)equation admits Painlevé property by the standard singularity analysis. The traveling wave solutions of the BSmKdV system are presented by the mapping and deformation method. We also provide other ideas to construct new super integrable systems.     

Bilinearization of discrete soliton equations and singularity confinement

The singularity confinement method is applied to the systematic derivation of the bilinear equations for discrete soliton equations. Using the bilinear forms, the N-soliton and algebraic solutions of the discrete potential mKdV equation are constructed.     

Painlevé analysis and integrability aspects of some nonlinear partial differential equations

A brief review of the Painlevé singularity structure analysis of some autonomous and nonautonomous nonlinear partial differential equations is discussed. We point out how the Painlevé analysis of solutions of these equations systematically provides the integrability properties of the equation. The Lax pair, Bäcklund transformation and bilinear forms are constructed from the analysis.     

An integrable coupled Alice–Bob modified Korteweg de-Vries system: Lax pairs,Bäcklund transformations,residual symmetries and exact solutions

ABSTRACT

A coupled Alice–Bob modified Korteweg de-Vries (mKdV) system is established from the mKdV equation in this paper, which is nonlocal and suitable to model two-place entangled events. The Lax integrability of the coupled Alice–Bob mKdV system is proved by demonstrating three types of Lax pairs. By means of the truncated Painlevé expansion, auto-Bäcklund transformation of the coupled Alice–Bob mKdV system and Bäcklund transformation between the coupled Alice–Bob mKdV system and the Schwarzian mKdV equation are demonstrated. Nonlocal residual symmetries of the coupled Alice–Bob mKdV system are researched. To obtain localized Lie point symmetries of residual symmetries, the coupled Alice–Bob mKdV system is extended to a system consisting six equations. Calculation on the prolonged system shows that it is invariant under the scaling transformations, space-time translations, phase translations and Galilean translations. One-parameter group transformation and one-parameter subgroup invariant solutions are obtained. The consistent Riccati expansion (CRE) solvability of the coupled Alice–Bob mKdV system is proved and some interaction structures between soliton–cnoidal waves are obtained by CRE. Moreover, Jacobi periodic wave solutions, solitary wave solutions and singular solutions are obtained by elliptic function expansion and exponential function expansion.     

Coupled Modified Korteweg-de Vries Lattice in (2+1) Dimensions and Soliton Solutions

The coupled semi-discrete modified Korteweg-de Vries equation in (2 1)-dimensions is proposed. It is shown that it can be decomposed into two (1 1)-dimensional differential-difference equations belonging to mKdV lattice hierarchy by considering a discrete isospectral problem. A Darboux transformation is set up for the resulting (2 1)- dimensional lattice soliton equation with the help of gauge transformations of Lax pairs. As an illustration by example,the soliton solutions of the mKdV lattice equation in (2 1)-dimensions are explicitly given.     

Few-cycle solitons in supercontinuum generation dynamics

We review several propagation models that do not rely on the slowly-varying-envelope approximation (SVEA), and can thus be considered as fundamental models addressing the formation and propagation of few-cycle pulsed field structures and solitary waves arising in the course of intense ultrashort optical pulse evolution in nonlinear media and beyond octave-bandwidth optical spectrum broadening. These generic models are: the modified-Korteweg-de Vries (mKdV), the sine-Gordon (sG), and the mixed mKdV-sG equations. To include wave polarization dynamics, the vector extensions of both mKdV and sG equations are introduced. Multi-octave-spanning supercontinuum generation and few-cycle soliton structures are highlighted from numerical simulations.     

A Discrete Lax-Integrable Coupled System Related to Coupled KdV and Coupled mKdV Equations

A modified Korteweg-de Vries （mKdV） lattice is found to be also a discrete Korteweg-de Vries （KdV） equation. A discrete coupled system is derived from the single lattice equation and its Lax pair is proposed. The coupled system is shown to be related to the coupled KdV and coupled mKdV systems which are widely used in physics.     

A Bäcklund Transformation of the Restricted mKdV Flow with a Rosochatius Deformation

A Bäcklund transformation of the restricted mKdV flow with a Rosochatius deformation is constructed. Its Lax representation and thus N invariants in involution are presented. Such Bäcklund transformation is a Rosochatius deformation of that of the restricted mKdV flow.     

Discretizing families of linearizable equations

We investigate generalizations of the discrete Riccati equation as a linearizable system, to multicomponent linearizable systems. These are discretizations of nonlinear ordinary differential equations with superposition formulas. We present discrete matrix Riccati equations, projective, conformal, orthogonal and symplectic Riccati equations. Also obtained are discrete equations, based on complex orthogonal and symplectic groups, that in the continuous limit involve fourth order polynomial nonlinearities. All these equations satisfy the criterion of singularity confinement.     

Painlevé Integrability of Nonlinear Schrödinger Equations with bothSpace- and Time-Dependent Coefficients

We investigate the Painlevé integrability of nonautonomous nonlinearSchrödinger (NLS) equations with both space- and time-dependent dispersion, nonlinearity, and external potentials. The Painlevé analysis is carried out without using the Kruskal's simplification, which results in more generalized form of inhomogeneous equations. The obtained equations are shown to be reducible to the standard NLS equation by using a point transformation. We also construct the corresponding Lax pair and carry out its Kundu-type reduction to the standard Lax pair. Special cases of equations from choosing limited form of coefficients coincide with the equations from the previous Painlevé analyses and/or become unknown new equations.     

Orthogonal polynomial approach to discrete Lax pairs for initial boundary-value problems of the QD algorithm

Using orthogonal polynomial theory, we construct the Lax pair for the quotient-difference algorithm in the natural Rutishauser variables. We start by considering the family of orthogonal polynomials corresponding to a given linear form. Shifts on the linear form give rise to adjacent families. A compatible set of linear problems is made up from two relations connecting adjacent and original polynomials. Lax pairs for several initial boundary-value problems are derived and we recover the discrete-time Toda chain equations of Hirota and of Suris. This approach allows us to derive a Bäcklund transform that relates these two different discrete-time Toda systems. We also show that they yield the same bilinear equation up to a gauge transformation. The singularity confinement property is discussed as well.     

Hamiltonian System of New Nonlinear Lattice Equations

A 3-dimensional Lie algebra sμ（3） is obtained with the help of the known Lie algebra. Based on the sμ（3）, a new discrete 3 × 3 matrix spectral problem with three potentials is constructed. In virtue of discrete zero curvature equations, a new matrix Lax representation for the hierarchy of the discrete lattice soliton equations is acquired. It is shown that the hierarchy possesses a Hamiltonian operator and a hereditary recursion operator, which implies that there exist infinitely many common commuting symmetries and infinitely many common commuting conserved functionals.     

The integrability of an extended fifth-order KdV equation with Riccati-type pseudopotential

The extended fifth-order KdV equation in fluids is investigated in this paper. Based on the concept of pseudopotential, a direct and unifying Riccati-type pseudopotential approach is employed to achieve Lax pair and singularity manifold equation of this equation. Moreover, this equation is classified into three categories: extended Caudrey–Dodd–Gibbon–Sawada–Kotera (CDGSK) equation, extended Lax equation and extended Kaup–Kuperschmidt (KK) equation. The corresponding singularity manifold equations and auto-Bäcklund transformations of these three equations are also obtained. Furthermore, the infinitely many conservation laws of the extended Lax equation are found using its Lax pair. All conserved densities and fluxes are given with explicit recursion formulas.     

The Qiao--Liu Equation with Self-Consistent Sources and Its Solutions

The Qiao--Liu equation with self-consistent sources (QLESCS) and its Lax representation are derived. A reciprocal transformation for the QLESCS is given. By making use of the reciprocal transformation and the solutions of the mKdV equation with self-consistent sources (mKdVSCS), the solutions of the QLESCS are presented.     

Integrable boundary conditions and modified Lax equations

We consider integrable boundary conditions for both discrete and continuum classical integrable models. Local integrals of motion generated by the corresponding “transfer” matrices give rise to time evolution equations for the initial Lax operator. We systematically identify the modified Lax pairs for both discrete and continuum boundary integrable models, depending on the classical r-matrix and the boundary matrix.     

The space of initial conditions and the property of an almost good reduction in discrete Painlevé II equations over finite fields

We investigate the discrete Painlevé equations (dP_II and qP_II) over finite fields. We first show that they are well defined by extending the domain according to the theory of the space of initial conditions. Then we treat them over local fields and observe that they have a property that is similar to the good reduction of dynamical systems over finite fields. We can use this property, which can be interpreted as an arithmetic analogue of singularity confinement, to avoid the indeterminacy of the equations over finite fields and to obtain special solutions from those defined originally over fields of characteristic zero.     

A (2+1)-dimensional KdV equation and mKdV equation: Symmetries,group invariant solutions and conservation laws

In this paper, we analyse the (2+1)-dimensional KdV and mKdV equations. Firtly, on the basis of the extended Lax pair, we derive these equations. Thereafter, the symmetry generators are determined followed by the application of the mCK method. Finally, conservation laws (including higher order) are studied.     

Algebro-Geometric Solutions with Characteristics of a Nonlinear Partial Differential Equation with Three-Potential Functions

With the help of a simple Lie algebra, an isospectral Lax pair, whose feature presents decomposition of element (1, 2) into a linear combination in the temporal Lax matrix, is introduced for which a new integrable hierarchy of evolution equations is obtained, whose Hamiltonian structure is also derived from the trace identity in which contains a constant γ to be determined. In the paper, we obtain a general formula for computing the constant γ. The reduced equations of the obtained hierarchy are the generalized nonlinear heat equation containing three-potential functions, the mKdV equation and a generalized linear KdV equation. The algebro-geometric solutions (also called finite band solutions) of the generalized nonlinear heat equation are obtained by the use of theory on algebraic curves. Finally, two kinds of gauge transformations of the spatial isospectral problem are produced.     

Discrete Lagrangian Reduction,Discrete Euler–Poincaré Equations,and Semidirect Products

A discrete version of Lagrangian reduction is developed within the context of discrete time Lagrangian systems on G × G, where G is a Lie group. We consider the case when the Lagrange function is invariant with respect to the action of an isotropy subgroup of a fixed element in the representation space of G. Within this context, the reduction of the discrete Euler–Lagrange equations is shown to lead to the so-called discrete Euler–Poincaré equations. A constrained variational principle is derived. The Legendre transformation of the discrete Euler–Poincaré equations leads to discrete Hamiltonian (Lie–Poisson) systems on a dual space to a semiproduct Lie algebra.     

Applications of Nambu Mechanics to Systems of Hydrodynamical Type II

Abstract

In this paper we further investigate some applications of Nambu mechanics in hydrodynamical systems. Using the Euler equations for a rotating rigid body Névir and Blender [J. Phys. A 26 (1993), L1189–L1193] had demonstrated the connection between Nambu mechanics and noncanonical Hamiltonian mechanics. Nambu mechanics is extended to incompressible ideal hydrodynamical fields using energy and helicity in three dimensional (enstrophy in two dimensional). In this paper we discuss the Lax representation of systems of Névir-Blender type. We also formulate the three dimensional Euler equations of incompressible fluid in terms of Nambu-Poisson geometry. We discuss their Lax representation. We also briefly discuss the Lax representation of ideal incompressible magnetohydrodynamics equations.
