Discrete equation on a square lattice with a nonstandard structure of generalized symmetries

We clarify the integrability nature of a recently found discrete equation on the square lattice with a nonstandard symmetry structure. We find its L-A pair and show that it is also nonstandard. For this discrete equation, we construct the hierarchies of both generalized symmetries and conservation laws. This equation yields two integrable systems of hyperbolic type. The hierarchies of generalized symmetries and conservation laws are also nonstandard compared with known equations in this class.     

Applications of a few Lie algebras

Two isomorphic groups R ² andM are firstly constructed. Then we extend them into the differential manifold R ²ⁿ and n products of the group M for which four kinds of Lie algebras are obtained. By using these Lie algebras and the Tu scheme, integrable hierarchies of evolution equations along with multi-component potential functions can be generated, whose Hamiltonian structures can be worked out by the variational identity. As application illustrations, two integrable Hamiltonian hierarchies with 4 component potential functions are obtained, respectively, some new reduced equations are followed to present. Specially remark that the integrable hierarchies obtained by taking use of the approach presented in the paper are not integrable couplings. Finally, we generalize an equation obtained in the paper to introduce a general nonlinear integrable equation with variable coefficients whose bilinear form, B¨acklund transformation, Lax pair and infinite conserved laws are worked out, respectively, by taking use of the Bell polynomials.     

Five constructions of integrable dynamical systems connected with the Korteweg-de Vries equation

Two countable sets of integrable dynamical systems which turn into the Korteweg-de Vries equation in a continous limit are constructed. The integrability of the dynamics of the scattering matrix entries for these systems is proved and an integrable reduction in the finitedimensional case is pointed out. A construction of the integrable dynamical systems connected with the simple Lie algebras and generalizing the discrete kdV equation is presented. Two general constructions of differential and integro-differential equations (with respect to time t) possessing a countable set of first integrals are found. These equations admit the Lax representation in some infinite-dimensional subalgebras of the Lie algebra of integral operators on an arbitrary manifold M ⁿ with measure . A construction of matrix equations having a set of attractors in the space of all matrix entries is given.     

Some Geometric Aspects of Integrability of Differential Equations in Two Independent Variables

The relation between scalar evolution equations which are the integrability condition of sl(2,R)-valued linear problems with parameter (kinematic integrability) and those which possess recursion operators (formal integrability) is studied: using that kinematically integrable equations describe one-parameter families of pseudo-spherical surfaces and vice versa, it is shown that every second order formally integrable evolution equation is kinematically integrable, and that this result cannot be extended as proven to the third-order case.Conservation laws of kinematically integrable equations obtained from their underlying pseudo-spherical structure are compared with the ones one finds from the Riccati equation version of their associated linear problems. Symmetries (generalized/nonlocal) for these equations are also studied, by considering infinitesimal deformations of the associated pseudo-spherical surfaces.Finally, conservation laws for equations describing pseudo-spherical surfaces immersed in a flat three-space are found, and the class of equations describing Calapso–Guichard surfaces is introduced.     

A sufficient condition for a rational differential operator to generate an integrable system

For a rational differential operator \({L=AB^{-1}}\), the Lenard–Magri scheme of integrability is a sequence of functions \({F_n, n \geq 0}\), such that (1) \({B(F_{n+1})=A(F_n)}\) for all \({n \geq 0}\) and (2) the functions \({B(F_n)}\) pairwise commute. We show that, assuming that property (1) holds and that the set of differential orders of \({B(F_n)}\) is unbounded, property (2) holds if and only if L belongs to a class of rational operators that we call integrable. If we assume moreover that the rational operator L is weakly non-local and preserves a certain splitting of the algebra of functions into even and odd parts, we show that one can always find such a sequence (F _n ) starting from any function in Ker B. This result gives some insight in the mechanism of recursion operators, which encode the hierarchies of the corresponding integrable equations.     

Poisson brackets of mappings obtained as (<Emphasis Type="Italic">q</Emphasis>,−<Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>) reductions of lattice equations

In this paper, we present Poisson brackets of certain classes of mappings obtained as general periodic reductions of integrable lattice equations. The Poisson brackets are derived from a Lagrangian, using the so-called Ostrogradsky transformation. The (q,?p) reductions are (p + q)-dimensional maps and explicit Poisson brackets for such reductions of the discrete KdV equation, the discrete Lotka–Volterra equation, and the discrete Liouville equation are included. Lax representations of these equations can be used to construct sufficiently many integrals for the reductions. As examples we show that the (3,?2) reductions of the integrable partial difference equations are Liouville integrable in their own right.     

Quasigraded lie algebras,Kostant-Adler scheme,and integrable hierarchies

Using special anisotropic quasigraded Lie algebras, we obtain a number of new hierarchies of integrable nonlinear equations in partial derivatives admitting zero-curvature representations. Among them are an anisotropic deformation of the Heisenberg magnet hierarchy, a matrix and vector generalization of the Landau—Lifshitz hierarchies, new types of matrix and vector anisotropic chiral-field hierarchies, and other types of anisotropic hierarchies.Translated from Teoreticheskaya i Matematicheskaya Fizika, Vol. 142, No. 2, pp. 329–345, February, 2005.     

Nonintegrability of a Fifth-Order Equation with Integrable Two-Body Dynamics

We consider a fifth-order partial differential equation (PDE) that is a generalization of the integrable Camassa–Holm equation. This fifth-order PDE has exact solutions in terms of an arbitrary number of superposed pulsons with a geodesic Hamiltonian dynamics that is known to be integrable in the two-body case N==2. Numerical simulations show that the pulsons are stable, dominate the initial value problem, and scatter elastically. These characteristics are reminiscent of solitons in integrable systems. But after demonstrating the nonexistence of a suitable Lagrangian or bi-Hamiltonian structure and obtaining negative results from Painlevé analysis and the Wahlquist–Estabrook method, we assert that this fifth-order PDE is not integrable.     

Variational derivation of two-component Camassa–Holm shallow water system

By a variational approach in the Lagrangian formalism, we derive the nonlinear integrable two-component Camassa–Holm system (1). We show that the two-component Camassa–Holm system (1) with the plus sign arises as an approximation to the Euler equations of hydrodynamics for propagation of irrotational shallow water waves over a flat bed. The Lagrangian used in the variational derivation is not a metric.     

Transformations between Nonlocal and Local Integrable Equations

Recently, a number of nonlocal integrable equations, such as the ‐symmetric nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation and ‐symmetric Davey–Stewartson equations, were proposed and studied. Here, we show that many of such nonlocal integrable equations can be converted to local integrable equations through simple variable transformations. Examples include these nonlocal NLS and Davey–Stewartson equations, a nonlocal derivative NLS equation, the reverse space‐time complex‐modified Korteweg–de Vries (CMKdV) equation, and many others. These transformations not only establish immediately the integrability of these nonlocal equations, but also allow us to construct their Lax pairs and analytical solutions from those of the local equations. These transformations can also be used to derive new nonlocal integrable equations. As applications of these transformations, we use them to derive rogue wave solutions for the partially ‐symmetric Davey–Stewartson equations and the nonlocal derivative NLS equation. In addition, we use them to derive multisoliton and quasi‐periodic solutions in the reverse space‐time CMKdV equation. Furthermore, we use them to construct many new nonlocal integrable equations such as nonlocal short pulse equations, nonlocal nonlinear diffusion equations, and nonlocal Sasa–Satsuma equations.     

Classification of discrete systems on a square lattice

We consider the classification up to a M?bius transformation of real linearizable and integrable partial difference equations with dispersion defined on a square lattice by the multiscale reduction around their harmonic solution. We show that the A₁, A₂, and A₃ linearizability and integrability conditions constrain the number of parameters in the equation, but these conditions are insufficient for a complete characterization of the subclass of multilinear equations on a square lattice.     

Discrete nonlinear hyperbolic equations. Classification of integrable cases

We consider discrete nonlinear hyperbolic equations on quad-graphs, in particular on ?². The fields are associated with the vertices and an equation of the form Q(x ₁, x ₂, x ₃, x ₄) = 0 relates four vertices of one cell. The integrability of equations is understood as 3D-consistency, which means that it is possible to impose equations of the same type on all faces of a three-dimensional cube so that the resulting system will be consistent. This allows one to extend these equations also to the multidimensional lattices ? ^N . We classify integrable equations with complex fields x and polynomials Q multiaffine in all variables. Our method is based on the analysis of singular solutions.     

The method of generalized Cole-Hopf substitutions and new examples of linearizable nonlinear evolution equations

We propose a new approach for constructing nonlinear evolution equations in matrix form that are integrable via substitutions similar to the Cole-Hopf substitution linearizing the Burgers equation. We use this new approach to find new integrable nonlinear evolution equations and their hierarchies. __________ Translated from Teoreticheskaya i Matematicheskaya Fizika, Vol. 158, No. 1, pp. 58–71, January, 2009     

Construction of a hierarchy of negative‐order integrable Burgers equations of higher orders

In this work, we employ the recursion operator, the Burgers equation and its inverse operator, for constructing a hierarchy of negative‐order integrable Burgers equations of higher orders. The complete integrability of each established equation emerges by virtue of the correlation between integrability and recursion operators. We use the simplified Hirota's method to obtain multiple kink solutions for some of the derived equations, and in particular, for the generalized negative‐order Burgers equation.     

The general scheme for higher-order decompositions of zero-curvature equations associated with 337-1337-1337-1(2)

Within the framework of zero-curvature representation theory, the decompositions of each equation in a hierarchy of zero-curvature equations associated with loop algebra by means of higher-order constraints on potential are given a unified treatment, and the general scheme and uniform formulas for the decompositions are proposed. This provides a method of separation of variables to solve a hierarchy of (1+1)-dimensional integrable systems. To illustrate the general scheme, new higher-order decompositions of two hierarchies of zero-curvature equations are presented.This project is supported by the National Basic Research Project Nonlinear Science.     

On the criteria for integrability of the Liénard equation

The Liénard equation is of a high importance from both mathematical and physical points of view. However a question about integrability of this equation has not been completely answered yet. Here we provide a new criterion for integrability of the Liénard equation using an approach based on nonlocal transformations. We also obtain some of the previously known criteria for integrability of the Liénard equation as a straightforward consequence of our approach’s application. We illustrate our results by several new examples of integrable Liénard equations.     

The generalized Kupershmidt deformation for constructing new discrete integrable systems

It is known that the KdV6 equation can be represented as the Kupershmidt deformation of the KdV equation. We propose a generalized Kupershmidt deformation for constructing new discrete integrable systems starting from the bi-Hamiltonian structure of a discrete integrable system. We consider the Toda, Kac-van Moerbeke, and Ablowitz-Ladik hierarchies and obtain Lax representations for these new deformed systems. The generalized Kupershmidt deformation provides a new way to construct discrete integrable systems.     

Integrable symplectic maps associated with discrete Korteweg‐de Vries‐type equations

In this paper, we present novel integrable symplectic maps, associated with ordinary difference equations, and show how they determine, in a remarkably diverse manner, the integrability, including Lax pairs and the explicit solutions, for integrable partial difference equations which are the discrete counterparts of integrable partial differential equations of Korteweg‐de Vries‐type (KdV‐type). As a consequence it is demonstrated that several distinct Hamiltonian systems lead to one and the same difference equation by means of the Liouville integrability framework. Thus, these integrable symplectic maps may provide an efficient tool for characterizing, and determining the integrability of, partial difference equations.     

On the regularity of positive solutions of a class of Choquard type equations

This paper is concerned with positive solutions of a class of Choquard type equations. Such equations are equivalent to integral systems involving the Bessel potential and the Riesz potential. By using two regularity lifting lemmas introduced by Chen and Li [2], we study the regularity for integrable solutions u. We first use the Hardy–Littlewood–Sobolev inequality to obtain an integrability result. Then, it is improved to ${u \in L^s(R^n)}$ for all ${s \in [1, \infty]}$ by an iteration. Next, we use the properties of the contraction map and the shrinking map to prove that u is Lipschitz continuous. Finally, we establish the smoothness of u by a bootstrap argument. Our technique can also be used to handle other integral systems involving the Riesz potential or the Bessel potential, such as the Hartree type equations.     

Integrability Properties of A Supersymmetric Coupled Dispersionless Integrable System

We study the integrability aspects of an N=1 supersymmetric coupled dispersionless (SUSY-CD) integrable system in detail. We present a superfield Lax representation of the SUSY-CD system by writing its (3×3)-matrix superfield Lax pair and show that the zero-curvature condition corresponds to the SUSY-CD system. From the fermionic superfield Lax representation, we obtain a set of coupled superfield Riccati equations that we further use to obtain an infinite set of superfield conserved currents. We investigate the Darboux transformation of the SUSY-CD system and use it to obtain multisoliton solutions of the system.
