Algebraic aspects of integrability for polynomial differential systems

In this article we summarize the results on algebraic aspects of integrability for polynomial differential systems and its application, which include the Darboux, elementary and Liouvelle integrability. Darboux theory of integrability was found by Darboux in 1878, and it becomes extremely useful in study of the center focus problem, of bifurcation, of limit cycle problem and of global dynamics. The importance of Darboux theory of integrability is also presented by the Singer's theorem for planar polynomial differential system. That is, if a polynomial system is Liouville integrable, then it is Darboux integrable, i.e. the system has a Darboux first integral or a Darboux integrating factor.     

Algebraic integrability for the Schrödinger equation and finite reflection groups

Algebraic integrability of ann-dimensional Schrödinger equation means that it has more thann independent quantum integrals. Forn=1, the problem of describing such equations arose in the theory of finite-gap potentials. The present paper gives a construction which associates finite reflection groups (in particular, Weyl groups of simple Lie algebras) with algebraically integrable multidimensional Schrödinger equations. These equations correspond to special values of the parameters in the generalization of the Calogero—Sutherland system proposed by Olshanetsky and Perelomov. The analytic properties of a joint eigenfunction of the corresponding commutative rings of differential operators are described. Explicit expressions are obtained for the solution of the quantum Calogero—Sutherland problem for a special value of the coupling constant.In memory of M. K. PolivanovMoscow State University.

Differential-geometric approach to the integrability of hydrodynamic chains: the Haantjes tensor

The integrability of an m-component system of hydrodynamic type, u _t = V(u)u _x , by the generalized hodograph method requires the diagonalizability of the m ×  m matrix V(u). This condition is known to be equivalent to the vanishing of the corresponding Haantjes tensor. We generalize this approach to hydrodynamic chains—infinite-component systems of hydrodynamic type for which the ∞ ×  ∞ matrix V(u) is ‘sufficiently sparse’. For such systems the Haantjes tensor is well-defined, and the calculation of its components involves finite summations only. We illustrate our approach by classifying broad classes of conservative and Hamiltonian hydrodynamic chains with the zero Haantjes tensor. We prove that the vanishing of the Haantjes tensor is a necessary condition for a hydrodynamic chain to possess an infinity of semi-Hamiltonian hydrodynamic reductions, thus providing an easy-to-verify necessary condition for the integrability.     

The Euler-Jacobi-Lie integrability theorem

This paper addresses a class of problems associated with the conditions for exact integrability of systems of ordinary differential equations expressed in terms of the properties of tensor invariants. The general theorem of integrability of the system of n differential equations is proved, which admits n ? 2 independent symmetry fields and an invariant volume n-form (integral invariant). General results are applied to the study of steady motions of a continuum with infinite conductivity.     

The integrability of conjugate functions

For any functionf of L(0, 2), we prove that there is a function L(0, 2) such that ¦(x)¦ = ¦f(x)¦ almost everywhere and L(0, 2), where is the conjugate of.Translated from Matematicheskie Zametki, Vol. 4, No. 4, pp. 461–465, October, 1968.     

Trajectories of lattice particles using the new approach to no integrability

We study two systems which lead to a lattice when an integration path is specified in “aesthetic field theory”. One of these cases involves nonsoliton type particles (magnitudes of maxima and minima oscillate in time). The other system is made up of soliton type particles. The two systems are intrinsically three-dimensional. We speak of the third dimension as “time”. In one of our solutions, the particles move on straight line trajectories, insofar as our numerical work indicates. In the other solution, the soliton type particles undergo what appears to be simple harmonic motion in both the x- and y-directions (loop motion). We then study these two systems using the new approach to integrability which involves a superposition principle and is characterized by a unique change function at each point. We still find multi maxima and minima. The systems are not as symmetric as the lattice. The soliton characteristic is preserved by the new method. We investigated the motion of lattice particles. We found evidence of maxima (minima) regions coalescing so that the location of the maxima (minima) became difficult to follow. The concept of location of particles may not even have a well-defined meaning here. We find examples of soliton particles appearing and disappearing. We conclude that the manner of integration in a no integrability theory can transform a system with well-defined trajectories into a system where particles can no longer be followed in time.     

The integrability of some Hamiltonian systems

In the article a new method of constructing full integrable systems of the type of rigid body motion equations in an ideal fluid is described.     

Algebraic optimization: The Fermat-Weber location problem

The Fermat-Weber location problem is to find a point in ⁿ that minimizes the sum of the (weighted) Euclidean distances fromm given points in ⁿ . In this work we discuss some relevant complexity and algorithmic issues. First, using Tarski's theory on solvability over real closed fields we argue that there is an infinite scheme to solve the problem, where the rate of convergence is equal to the rate of the best method to locate a real algebraic root of a one-dimensional polynomial. Secondly, we exhibit an explicit solution to the strong separation problem associated with the Fermat-Weber model. This separation result shows that an-approximation solution can be constructed in polynomial time using the standard Ellipsoid Method.     

The local integrability condition for wavelet frames

In this article we study finitely generated wavelet systems with arbitrary dilation sets. In 2002 Hernández et al. gave a characterization of when such a system forms a Parseval frame, assuming that a certain hypothesis known as the local integrability condition (LIC) holds. We show that, under some mild regularity assumption on the wavelets, the LIC is solely a density condition on the dilation sets. Using this new interpretation of the LIC, we further discuss when the characterization result holds.     

Singular complete integrability

We show that a holomorphic vector field in a neighbourhood of its singular point 0∈C ⁿ is analytically normalizable if it has a sufficiently large number of commuting holomorphic vector fields, a sufficiently large number of formal first integrals and that a diophantine small divisors condition related to the linear parts of its centralizer is satisfied.     

Categorical Abstract Algebraic Logic: Partially Ordered Algebraic Systems

An extension of parts of the theory of partially ordered varieties and quasivarieties, as presented by Pałasińska and Pigozzi in the framework of abstract algebraic logic, is developed in the more abstract framework of categorical abstract algebraic logic. Algebraic systems, as introduced in previous work by the author, play in this more abstract framework the role that universal algebras play in the more traditional treatment. The aim here is to build the generalized framework and to formulate and prove abstract versions of the ordered homomorphism theorems in this framework. To Don Pigozzi and Kate Pałasińska.     

Asymptotically regular problems I: Higher integrability

We consider weak solutions u of non-linear systems of partial differential equations. Assuming that the system exhibits a certain kind of elliptic behavior near infinity we prove higher integrability results for the gradient Du. In particular, we establish Hölder continuity of u in low dimensions. Moreover, we obtain analogous results for vectorial minimizers of multi-dimensional variational integrals. Finally, we discuss an extension to minimizing sequences and applications to generalized minimizers.     

Algebraic approach to q,t-characters

Frenkel and Reshetikhin (in: Recent Developments in Quantum Affine Algebras and Related Topics, Contemporary Mathematics, Vol. 248, 1999, pp. 163-205) introduced q-characters to study finite dimensional representations of the quantum affine algebra . In the simply laced case Nakajima (in: Physics and Combinatorics, Proceedings of the Nagoya 2000 International Workshop, World Scientific, Singapore, 2001, pp. 181-212; Preprint arXiv:math.QA/0105173) defined deformations of q-characters called q,t-characters. The definition is combinatorial but the proof of the existence uses the geometric theory of quiver varieties which holds only in the simply laced case. In this article we propose an algebraic general (non-necessarily simply laced) new approach to q,t-characters motivated by the deformed screening operators (Internat. Math. Res. Not. 2003 (8) (2003) 451). The t-deformations are naturally deduced from the structure of : the parameter t is analog to the central charge . The q,t-characters lead to the construction of a quantization of the Grothendieck ring and to general analogues of Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials in the same spirit as Nakajima did for the simply laced case.     

Contact complete integrability

Complete integrability in a symplectic setting means the existence of a Lagrangian foliation leaf-wise preserved by the dynamics. In the paper we describe complete integrability in a contact set-up as a more subtle structure: a flag of two foliations, Legendrian and co-Legendrian, and a holonomy-invariant transverse measure of the former in the latter. This turns out to be equivalent to the existence of a canonical ? ? ? ^n?1 structure on the leaves of the co-Legendrian foliation. Further, the above structure implies the existence of n commuting contact fields preserving a special contact 1-form, thus providing the geometric framework and establishing equivalence with previously known definitions of contact integrability. We also show that contact completely integrable systems are solvable in quadratures. We present an example of contact complete integrability: the billiard system inside an ellipsoid in pseudo-Euclidean space, restricted to the space of oriented null geodesics. We describe a surprising acceleration mechanism for closed light-like billiard trajectories.     

Universal integrability objects

We discuss the main points of the quantum group approach in the theory of quantum integrable systems and illustrate them for the case of the quantum group U_q(L(sl ₂ )). We give a complete set of the functional relations correcting inexactitudes in the previous considerations. We especially attend to the interrelation of the representations used to construct the universal transfer operators and Q-operators.     

Higher integrability results

It is proved that if the function f verifies a reverse integral inequality, then the nonincreasing rearrangement of f verifies the same inequality.As an application, a short proof of higher integrability results from reverse integral inequalities is given, by reduction to the one dimensional case.
