Lie Algebras and Integrable Systems

A 3? 3 matrix Lie algebra is first introduced, its subalgebras and the generated Lie algebras are obtained, respectively. Applications of a few Lie subalgebras give rise to two integrable nonlinear hierarchies of evolution equations from their reductions we obtain the nonlinear Schrödinger equations, the mKdV equations, the Broer-Kaup (BK) equation and its generalized equation, etc. The linear and nonlinear integrable couplings of one integrable hierarchy presented in the paper are worked out by casting a 3? 3 Lie subalgebra into a 2? 2 matrix Lie algebra. Finally, we discuss the elliptic variable solutions of a generalized BK equation.     

Two new discrete integrable systems

Lie Algebras Associated with Group U（n）

Starting from the subgroups of the group U（n）, the corresponding Lie algebras of the Lie algebra Al are presented, from which two well-known simple equivalent matrix Lie algebras are given. It follows that a few expanding Lie algebras are obtained by enlarging matrices. Some of them can be devoted to producing double integrable couplings of the soliton hierarchies of nonlinear evolution equations. Others can be used to generate integrable couplings involving more potential functions. The above Lie algebras are classified into two types. Only one type can generate the integrable couplings, whose Hamiltonian structure could be obtained by use of the quadratic-form identity. In addition, one condition on searching for integrable couplings is improved such that more useful Lie algebras are enlightened to engender. Then two explicit examples are shown to illustrate the applications of the Lie algebras. Finally, with the help of closed cycling operation relations, another way of producing higher-dimensional Lie algebras is given.     

Generalized Multi-component TC Hierarchy and Its Multi-component Integrable Coupling System

A new 3M-dimensional Lie algebra X is constructed firstly. Then, the corresponding loop algebra X is produced, whose commutation operation defined by us is as simple and straightforward as that in the loop algebra A1. It follows that a general scheme for generating multi-component integrable hierarchy is proposed. By taking advantage of X, a new isospectral problem is established, and then well-known multi-component TC hierarchy is obtained. Finally, an expanding loop algebra FM of the loop algebra X is presented. Based on the FM, the multi-component integrable coupling system of the generalized multi-component TC hierarchy has been worked out. The method in this paper can be applied to other nonlinear evolution equations hierarchies. It is easy to find that we can construct any finite-dimensional Lie algebra by this approach.

Some Evolution Hierarchies Derived from Self-dual Yang-Mills Equations

We develop in this paper a new method to construct two explicit Lie algebras E and F. By using a loop algebra \bar{E} of the Lie algebra E and the reduced self-dual Yang-Mills equations, we obtain an expanding integrable model of the Giachetti-Johnson (GJ) hierarchy whose Hamiltonian structure can
also be derived by using the trace identity. This provides a much simplier construction method in comparing with the tedious variational identity approach. Furthermore, the nonlinear integrable coupling of the GJ hierarchy is readily obtained by introducing the Lie algebra g_N. As an application, we apply the loop algebra \tilde{E} of the Lie algebra E to obtain a kind of expanding integrable model of the Kaup-Newell (KN) hierarchy which, consisting of two arbitrary parametersα andβ, can be reduced to two nonlinear evolution equations. In addition, we use a loop algebra \tilde{F} of the Lie algebra F to obtain an
expanding integrable model of the BT hierarchy whose Hamiltonian structure is the same as using the trace identity. Finally, we deduce five integrable systems in R³ based on the self-dual Yang-Mills equations, which include Poisson structures, irregular lines, and the reduced equations.

It is shown that the resulting lattice soliton hierarchy possesses Hamiltonian structures and infinitely many common commuting symmetries as well infinitely many conserved functions. The Liouville integrability of the resulting system is then demonstrated.

Moreover, the Hamiltonian forms is deduced for lattice equation in the resulting hierarchy by means of the discrete variational identity --- a generalized trace identity. A strong symmetry operator of the resulting hierarchy is given. Finally, we provethat the hierarchy of the resulting Hamiltonian equations is Liouville integrable discrete Hamiltonian systems.
