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.

Interactions Between Solitons and Cnoidal Periodic Waves of the (2+1)-Dimensional Konopelchenko-Dubrovsky Equation

The (2+1)-dimensional Konopelchenko-Dubrovsky equation is an important prototypic model in nonlinear physics, which can be applied to many fields. Various nonlinear excitations of the (2+1)-dimensional Konopelchenko-Dubrovsky equation have been found by many methods. However, it is very difficult to find interaction solutions among different types of nonlinear excitations. In this paper, with the help of the Riccati equation, the (2+1)-dimensional Konopelchenko-Dubrovsky equation is solved by the consistent Riccati expansion (CRE). Furthermore, we obtain the soliton-cnoidal wave interaction solution of the (2+1)-dimensional Konopelchenko-Dubrovsky equation.

By means of the generalized direct method, a relationship is constructed between the new solutions and the old ones of the (3+1)-dimensional breaking soliton equation. Based on the relationship, a new solution is obtained by using a given solution of the equation. The symmetry is also obtained for the (3+1)-dimensional breaking soliton equation. By using the equivalent vector of the symmetry, we construct a seven-dimensional symmetry algebra and get the optimal system of group-invariant solutions. To every case of the optimal system, the (3+1)-dimensional breaking soliton equation is reduced and some solutions to the reduced equations are obtained. Furthermore, some new explicit solutions are found for the (3+1)-dimensional breaking soliton equation.     

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.

Then using the associated vector fields of the obtained symmetry, we give the one-, two-, and three-parameter optimal systems of group-invariant solutions. Based on the optimal system, we derive the reductions and some new solutions of the (3+1)-dimensional Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation.
