Dual Hierarchies of a Multi-Component Camassa–Holm System

In this paper, we derive the bi-Hamiltonian structure of a multi-component Camassa–Holm system, which associates with the multi-component AKNS hierarchy and multi-component KN hierarchy via the tri-Hamiltonian duality method. Furthermore, the spectral problems of the dual hierarchies may be obtained.     

Geometric Integrability of the Camassa–Holm Equation

It is observed that the Camassa–Holm equation describes pseudo-spherical surfaces and that therefore, its integrability properties can be studied by geometrical means. An sl(2, R)-valued linear problem whose integrability condition is the Camassa–Holm equation is presented, a Miura transform and a modified Camassa–Holm equation are introduced, and conservation laws for the Camassa–Holm equation are then directly constructed. Finally, it is pointed out that this equation possesses a nonlocal symmetry, and its flow is explicitly computed.     

Multi-soliton solutions of a two-component Camassa–Holm system:Darboux transformation approach

We propose and develop another approach to constructing multi-soliton solutions of an integrable two-component Camassa–Holm(CH2)system.With the help of a reciprocal transformation and a gauge transformation,we relate the CH2 system to a negative flow of the Broer–Kaup or twoboson hierarchy.The solutions of this negative flow are given in terms of Wronskians via Darboux transformation.Then the multi-soliton solutions of the CH2 system are recovered in parametric form by inverting the reciprocal transformation and the gauge transformation.     

A Three-component Extension of the Camassa–Holm Hierarchy

We introduce a bi-Hamiltonian hierarchy on the loop-algebra of endowed with a suitable Poisson pair. It gives rise to the usual Camassa–Holm (CH) hierarchy by means of a bi-Hamiltonian reduction, and its first nontrivial flow provides a three-component extension of the CH equation.     

Integrable generalization of the associated Camassa–Holm equation

In this paper, we study an integrable generalization of the associated Camassa–Holm equation. The generalized system is shown to be integrable in the sense of Lax pair and the bilinear Bäcklund transformations are presented through the Bell polynomial technique. Meanwhile, its infinite conservation laws are constructed, and conserved densities and fluxes are given in explicit recursion formulas. Furthermore, a Darboux transformation for the system is derived with the help of the gauge transformation between two Lax pairs. As an application, soliton and periodic wave solutions are given through the Darboux transformation.     

Reciprocal Transformations of Two Camassa–Holm Type Equations

The relation between the Camassa–Holm equation and the Olver–Rosenau–Qiao equation is obtained,and we connect a new Camassa–Holm type equation proposed by Qiao etc. with the first negative flow of the Kd V hierarchy by a reciprocal transformation.     

Wave-Breaking and Peakons for a Modified Camassa–Holm Equation

In this paper, we investigate the formation of singularities and the existence of peaked traveling-wave solutions for a modified Camassa-Holm equation with cubic nonlinearity. The equation is known to be integrable, and is shown to admit a single peaked soliton and multi-peakon solutions, of a different character than those of the Camassa-Holm equation. Singularities of the solutions can occur only in the form of wave-breaking, and a new wave-breaking mechanism for solutions with certain initial profiles is described in detail.     

Estimates for the KdV-Limit of the Camassa–Holm Equation

In a number of scaling limits, we prove estimates relating the solutions of the Camassa–Holm equation to the solutions of the associated KdV equation. As a consequence, suitable solutions of the water wave problem and solutions of the Camassa–Holm equation stay close together for long times.     

Higher Dimensional Camassa–Holm Equations

Utilizing some conservation laws of the(1+1)-dimensional Camassa–Holm(CH) equation and/or its reciprocal forms, some(n+1)-dimensional CH equations for n ≥ 1 are constructed by a modified deformation algorithm.The Lax integrability can be proven by applying the same deformation algorithm to the Lax pair of the(1+1)-dimensional CH equation. A novel type of peakon solution is implicitly given and expressed by the Lambert W function.     

Multiply Kink and Anti-Kink Solutions for a Coupled Camassa–Holm Type Equation

This article amis at revealing dynamical behavior of a coupled Camassa–Holm type equation, which was proposed by Geng and Wang based on a 4×4 matrix spectral problem with two potentials. Its kink and anti-kink solutions are presented explicitly. In particular, some exact multi-kink and anti-kink wave solutions are discussed and under some conditions, the kink and anti-kinks look like hat-shape solitons. The dynamic characters of the obtained solutions are investigated by figures. The method used in this paper can be widely applied to looking for the multi-kinks for Camassa–Holm type equations possessing cubic nonlinearity.     

An Isospectral Problem for Global Conservative Multi-Peakon Solutions of the Camassa–Holm Equation

We introduce a generalized isospectral problem for global conservative multi-peakon solutions of the Camassa–Holm equation. Utilizing the solution of the indefinite moment problem given by M. G. Krein and H. Langer, we show that the conservative Camassa–Holm equation is integrable by the inverse spectral transform in the multi-peakon case.     

On the development of a high-order compact scheme for exhibiting the switching and dissipative solution natures in the Camassa–Holm equation

In this paper a two-step iterative solution algorithm for solving the Camassa–Holm equation, which involves only the first-order derivative term, is presented. In each set of the u − P and u − m differential equations, one is governed by the inviscid nonlinear convection–reaction equation for the time-evolving fluid velocity component along the horizontal direction. The other equation is known as the inhomogeneous Helmholtz equation. The resulting reduction of differential order facilitates us to develop the flux discretization scheme in a stencil with comparatively fewer points. For accurately predicting the unidirectional propagation of the shallow water wave, the modified equation analysis for eliminating several leading discretization error terms and the Fourier analysis for minimizing a particular type of wave-like error are employed. In this study, the fifth-order spatially accurate combined compact upwind scheme is developed in a three-point stencil for approximating the first-order derivative term. For the purpose of retaining a long-term accurate Hamiltonian and multi-symplectic geometric structures in Camassa–Holm equation, the time integrator (or time-stepping scheme) chosen in this study should conserve symplecticity. Another main emphasis of conducting the present calculation of Camassa–Holm equation is to shed light on the conservation of Hamiltonians up to the time before wave breaking. We also intended to elucidate the switching scenario by virtue of the peakon–peakon interaction problem and the dissipative scenario after the time of head-on collision in the peakon–antipeakon interaction problem.     

A Semiclassical Theory of a Dissipative Henon—Heiles System

A semiclassical theory of a dissipative Henon—Heiles system is proposed. Based on -scaling of an equation for the evolution of the Wigner quasiprobability distribution function in the presence of dissipation and thermal diffusion, we derive a semiclassical equation for quantum fluctuations, governed by the dissipation and the curvature of the classical potential. We show how the initial quantum noise gets amplified by classical chaotic diffusion, which is expressible in terms of a correlation of stochastic fluctuations of the curvature of the potential due to classical chaos, and ultimately settles down to equilibrium under the influence of dissipation. We also establish that there exists a critical limit to the expansion of phase space. The limit is set by chaotic diffusion and dissipation. Our semiclassical analysis is corroborated by numerical simulation of a quantum operator master equation.     

Stability of Motion of a Nonholonomic System

Perturbation differential equations of motion of a general nonholonomic system subjected to the ideal nonholonomic constraints of Chetaev＇s type are established, and the equation of variation of energy is deduced by using the perturbation equations of the system. A criterion of the stability is obtained and an example is given to illustrate the application of the result.     

Three New Integrable Hierarchies of Equations

A general Lie algebra Vs and the corresponding loop algebra Vx are constructed, from which the linear isospectral Lax pairs are established, whose compatibility presents the zero curvature equation. As its application, a new Lax integrable hierarchy containing two parameters is worked out. It is not Liouville-integrable, however, its two reduced systems are Liouville-integrable, whose Hamiltonian structures are derived by making use of the quadratic-form identity and the γ formula （i.e. the computational formula on the constant γ appeared in the trace identity and the quadratic-form identity）.     

Mesoscopic Transport Characteristics of a Normal—Metal—Superconducting—Grain—Superconductor System

We investigate transport properties of a normal-metal-superconducting-grain-superconductor system by the use of the equivalent single-particle multi-channel networks, taking into account the multi-level structure, the Coulomb interaction, and the pair potential on the grain. The dependence of the current on the gate voltage show oscillating behaviour with a period related to 2e of the charge on the grain, reflecting the charge transfer in units of Cooper pairs. The conductance can be enhanced when the pairing parameter is near the Coulomb energy e^2/2C, due to the resonance of the Andreev reflection through the grain. The magnitude of the Andreev reflection as a function of the bias voltage exhibits complicated structures, reflecting the multiple levels, the spin orientations, and the interaction energy on the grain.
