Integrable discretization and numerical simulations of the generalized coupled integrable dispersionless equations

In this paper, we study the generalized coupled integrable dispersionless (GCID) equations and construct two integrable discrete analogues including a semi-discrete system and a full-discrete one. The results are based on the relations among the GCID equations, the sine-Gordon equation and the two-dimensional Toda lattice equation. We also present the N-soliton solutions to the semi-discrete and fully discrete systems in the form of Casorati determinant. In the continuous limit, we show that the fully discrete GCID equations converge to the semi-discrete GCID equations, then further to the continuous GCID equations. By using the integrable semi-discrete system, we design two numerical schemes to the GCID equations and carry out several numerical experiments with solitons and breather solutions.
