A Complex Higher-Dimensional Lie Algebra with Real and Imaginary Structure Constants as Well as Its Decomposition

A new Lie algebra G of the Lie algebra sl(2) is constructed with complex entries whose structure constants are real and imaginary numbers. A loop algebra ˜G corresponding to the Lie algebra G is constructed, for which it is devoted to generating a soliton hierarchy of evolution equations under the framework of generalized zero curvature equation which is derived from the compatibility of the isospectral problems expressed by Hirota operators. Finally, we decompose the Lie algebra G to obtain the subalgebras G₁ and G₂. Using the G₂ and its one type of loop algebra ˜G₂, a Liouville integrable soliton hierarchy is obtained, furthermore, we obtain its bi-Hamiltonian structure by employing the quadratic-form identity.     

Upper Triangular Matrix of Lie Algebra and a New Discrete Integrable Coupling System

The upper triangular matrix of Lie algebra is used to construct integrable couplings of discrete solition equations. Correspondingly, a feasible way to construct integrable couplings is presented. A nonlinear lattice soliton equation spectral problem is obtained and leads to a novel hierarchy of the nonlinear lattice equation hierarchy. It indicates that the study of integrable couplings using upper triangular matrix of Lie algebra is an important step towards constructing integrable systems.     

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.     

Higher-Dimensional Lie Algebra and New Integrable Coupling of Discrete KdV Equation

Based on semi-direct sums of Lie subalgebra \tilde{G}, a higher-dimensional 6 x 6 matrix Lie algebra sμ(6) is constructed. A hierarchy of integrable coupling KdV equation with three potentials is proposed, which is derivedfrom a new discrete six-by-six matrix spectral problem. 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.     

GROUP ANALYSIS AND HEIR-EQUATIONS OF A MATHEMATICAL MODEL FOR THIN LIQUID FILMS

Lie group analysis is applied to a mathematical model for thin liquid films, namely a nonlinear fourth order partial differential equation in two independent variables. A three-dimensional Lie symmetry algebra is found and reductions to fourth order ordinary differential equations are obtained by using its one-dimensional subalgebras. Two of these ordinary differential equations are studied by the reduction method and by the Jacobi last multiplier method, and found to be linearizable. Furthermore, the G-equation and η-equation, namely two of the heir-equations obtained by iterating the nonclassical symmetries method, are constructed and reductions to different ordinary differential equations are acquired by using two-dimensional and three-dimensional subalgebras, respectively.     

Formal Series Symmetries and Truncated Symmetries of a Bilinear Schrödinger Equation

For a type of nonlinear Schrodinger equations, we get a set of formal series symmetries. For a special integrable bilinear Schrodinger equation in (2 + 1)-dimensional spacetime, some truncated symmetries which constitute an infinite dimensional Lie algebra are obtained.     

Lie symmetry analysis for a generalized Conde-Gordoa-Pickering equation via equivalence transformations

In this paper, we consider a novel generalized Conde-Gordoa-Pickering equation with time-dependent coefficients by virtue of the Lie symmetry method. An equivalence group is constructed for the considered generalized nonlinear equation. A complete Lie group classification is performed with the aid of the equivalence group. A number of similarity reductions which reduce the generalized equation into ordinary differential equations are given, and several exact solutions are generated. Moreover, we discuss the integrable nature of the novel generalized equation, and particularly, determine cases of restricted coefficients under which the novel equation is Painlevé integrable.     

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.     

A subalgebra of loop algebra A2^～ and its applications

A subalgebra of loop algebra A2^～ and its expanding loop algebra G^- are constructed. It follows that both resulting integrable Hamiltonian hierarchies are obtained. As a reduction case of the first hierarchy, a generalized nonlinear coupled Schroedinger equation, the standard heat-conduction and a formalism of the well known Ablowitz, Kaup, Newell and Segur hierarchy are given, respectively. As a reduction case of the second hierarchy, the nonlinear Schroedinger and modified Korteweg de Vries hierarchy and a new integrable system are presented. Especially, a coupled generalized Burgers equation is generated.     

Three New (2+1)-dimensional Integrable Systems and Some Related Darboux Transformations

We introduce two operator commutators by using different-degree loop algebras of the Lie algebra A₁, then under the framework of zero curvature equations we generate two (2+1)-dimensional integrable hierarchies, in-cluding the (2+1)-dimensional shallow water wave (SWW) hierarchy and the (2+1)-dimensional Kaup-Newell (KN) hierarchy. Through reduction of the (2+1)-dimensional hierarchies, we get a (2+1)-dimensional SWW equation and a (2+1)-dimensional KN equation. Furthermore, we obtain two Darboux transformations of the (2+1)-dimensional SWW equation. Similarly, the Darboux transformations of the (2+1)-dimensional KN equation could be deduced. Finally, with the help of the spatial spectral matrix of SWW hierarchy, we generate a (2+1) heat equation and a (2+1) nonlinear generalized SWW system containing inverse operators with respect to the variables x and y by using a reduction spectral problem from the self-dual Yang-Mills equations.     

Lie Symmetries,Infinite-Dimensional Lie Algebras and Similarity Reductions of Certain (2+1)-Dimensional Nonlinear Evolution Equations

Abstract

The Lie point symmetries associated with a number of (2 + 1)-dimensional generalizations of soliton equations are investigated. These include the Niznik – Novikov – Veselov equation and the breaking soliton equation, which are symmetric and asymmetric generalizations respectively of the KDV equation, the (2+1)-dimensional generalization of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation by Fokas as well as the (2+1)-dimensional generalized sine-Gordon equation of Konopelchenko and Rogers. We show that in all these cases the Lie symmetry algebra is infinite-dimensional; however, in the case of the breaking soliton equation they do not possess a centerless Virasorotype subalgebra as in the case of other typical integrable (2+1)-dimensional evolution equations. We work out the similarity variables and special similarity reductions and investigate them.     

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 generalscheme 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.

The generalized nonlinear Schrödinger hierarchy, its integrable coupling system and their bi-Hamiltonian structure

Based on a subalgebra G of Lie algebra A₂, a new Lie algebra G^∗ is constructed. By making use of the Tu scheme, the generalized nonlinear Schrödinger hierarchy and its integrable coupling are both obtained with the help of their corresponding special loop algebras. At last, by means of the quadratic-form identity, their bi-Hamiltonian structures of the generalized nonlinear Schrödinger hierarchy and its integrable coupling system are worked out respectively. The approach presented in this Letter can be used in other integrable hierarchies.     

Lie Symmetries,Kac-Moody-Virasoro Algebras and Integrability of Certain (2+1)-Dimensional Nonlinear Evolution Equations

Abstract

In this paper we study Lie symmetries, Kac-Moody-Virasoro algebras, similarity reductions and particular solutions of two different recently introduced (2+1)-dimensional nonlinear evolution equations, namely (i) (2+1)-dimensional breaking soliton equation and (ii) (2+1)-dimensional nonlinear Schrüdinger type equation introduced by Zakharov and studied later by Strachan. Interestingly our studies show that not all integrable higher dimensional systems admit Kac-Moody-Virasoro type sub-algebras. Particularly the two integrable systems mentioned above do not admit Virasoro type subalgebras, eventhough the other integrable higher dimensional systems do admit such algebras which we have also reviewed in the Appendix. Further, we bring out physically interesting solutions for special choices of the symmetry parameters in both the systems.     

Hamiltonian and Super-Hamiltonian Extensions Related to Broer-Kaup-Kupershmidt System

Based on the Lie algebra A ₁, the integrable Broer-Kaup-Kupershmidt (BKK) system is revisited. The bi-Hamiltonian structure is constructed by the trace identity. Two extensions of the Lie algebra A ₁ are considered, i.e., the non-semi-simple Lie algebra of 4×4 matrix and the super-Lie algebra of 3×3 matrix, from which two hierarchies of soliton equations related to BKK system are given. With the aid of the generalized trace identity and the super-trace identity, the Hamiltonian and super-Hamiltonian structures of the resulting systems are constructed.
