Transformation properties of the integrable evolution equations

Group-theoretical properties of partial differential equations integrable by the inverse scattering transform method are discussed. It is shown that nonlinear transformations typical to integrable equations (symmetry groups, Bäcklund-transformations) and these equations themselves are contained in a certain universal nonlinear transformation group.     

Nonlinear Transformations and Integrable Evolution Equations

The transformation properties of the partial differential equations integrable by the inverse scattering transform method are considered. It is shown that the nonlinear transformations characteristic to the integrable equations (symmetry groups, Backlund-transformations) and integrable equations themselves are contained in certain universal nonlinear transformations group which is defined by linear spectral problem.     

Practical pulse synthesis via the discrete inverse scattering transform

This paper provides the practical details required to use the inverse scattering (IST) approach to design selective RF-pulses. As in the Shinnar-Le Roux (SLR) approach, we use a hard pulse approximation to actually design the pulse. Unlike SLR, the pulse is designed using the full inverse scattering data (the reflection coefficient and the bound states) rather than the flip angle profile. We explain how to approximate the reflection coefficient to obtain a pulse with a prescribed rephasing time. In contrast to the SLR approach, we retain direct control on the phase of the magnetization profile throughout the design process. We give explicit recursive algorithms for computing the hard pulse from the inverse scattering data. These algorithms are quite different from the SLR recursion, being essentially discretizations of the Marchenko equations. We call our approach the discrete inverse scattering transform or DIST. Overall, it is as fast as the SLR approach. When bound states are present, we use both the left and right Marchenko equations to improve the numerical stability of the algorithm. We compute a variety of examples and consider the effect of amplitude errors on the magnetization profile.     

Integrable lattice equations and their growth properties

In this Letter we investigate the integrability of two-dimensional partial difference equations using the newly developed techniques of study of the degree of the iterates. We show that while for generic, nonintegrable equations, the degree grows exponentially fast, for integrable lattice equations the degree growth is polynomial. The growth criterion is used in order to obtain the integrable deautonomisations of the equations examined. In the case of linearisable lattice equations we show that the degree growth is slower than in the case of equations integrable through inverse scattering transform techniques.

On relativistic-invariant formulation of the inverse scattering transform method

A manifestly relativistic-invariant formulation of the method of inverse scattering transform for relativistic-invariant equations is proposed. The sine-Gordon model and the massive Thirring model are considered.     

INVERSE SCATTER1 NG TRANSFORM AND REGULAR RIEMANN-HILBERT PROBLEM

It is shown that the inverse scattering transform method for solving the Lax pair of given nonlinear evolution equation can be reduced to a kind of Riemann-Hilbert (RH) problem of meromorphic functions with respect to the complex spectral parameter. The RH problem is generally regular no matter solitons are involved or not. The linear singular integral equation associated with the RH problem has been derived, which is essential1y equivalent to the Gel fand-Levitan-Marchenko equation.Furthermore, the regtllar RH problem satisfied by the Sacklund transformation from a fundamental solution set of the eigenvalue equations of Lax pair to a new set has Fen given as well. The RH problem reduced from the inverse scattering transform is in fact a special case of that satisfied by the Backlund transformation.     

Integrable equations and differential geometry

It is shown that the equations which are integrable by the inverse scattering transform method and this method itself admit a natural interpretation in terms of vector and principal zero-curvature fibre bundles with certain structure groups G.     

Cauchy problem on the plane for the dispersionless Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation

We construct the formal solution to the Cauchy problem for the dispersionless Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation as an application of the inverse scattering transform for the vector field corresponding to a Newtonian particle in a time-dependent potential. This is in full analogy with the Cauchy problem for the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation, associated with the inverse scattering transform of the time-dependent Schrödinger operator for a quantum particle in a time-dependent potential.     

Integrability of linear and nonlinear evolution equations and the associated nonlinear fourier transforms

The inverse spectral method is a nonlinear Fourier transform method for solving certain equations. Here, we emphasize that such transforms should be considered in their own right. We also elucidate further the connection between the Fourier transform and inverse spectral methods by establishing that linear equations can also be solved through the inverse spectral method.     

Inverse Scattering Transform and Solitons for Square Matrix Nonlinear Schrödinger Equations with Mixed Sign Reductions and Nonzero Boundary Conditions

The inverse scattering transform (IST) with nonzero boundary conditions at infinity is developed for a class of 2 × 2 matrix nonlinear Schrödinger-type systems whose reductions include two equations that model certain hyperfine spin F = 1 spinor Bose-Einstein condensates, and two novel equations that were recently shown to be integrable, and that have applications in nonlinear optics and four-component fermionic condensates. In our formulation, both the direct and the inverse problems are posed in terms of a suitable uniformization variable which allows us to develop the IST on the standard complex plane instead of a two-sheeted Riemann surface or the cut plane with discontinuities along the cuts. Analyticity, symmetries and asymptotics of the scattering eigenfunctions and scattering data are derived, and properties of the discrete spectrum are analyzed in detail. In addition, the general behavior of the soliton solutions for all four reductions is discussed, and some novel soliton solutions are presented.     

Minimum energy pulse synthesis via the inverse scattering transform

This paper considers a variety of problems in the design of selective RF-pulses. We apply a formula of Zakharov and Manakov to directly relate the energy of an RF-envelope to the magnetization profile and certain auxiliary parameters used in the inverse scattering transform (IST) approach to RF-pulse synthesis. This allows a determination of the minimum possible energy for a given magnetization profile. We give an algorithm to construct both the minimum energy RF-envelope as well as any other envelope that produces a given magnetization profile. This includes an algorithm for solving the Gel'fand-Levitan-Marchenko equations with bound states. The SLR method is analyzed in terms of traditional scattering data, and shown to be a special (singular) case of the IST approach. RF-envelopes are computed for a variety of examples.     

核磁自旋回波串的液体分量分解快速反演法(英文)

该文叙述核磁自旋回波串的液体分量分解快速反演法.此方法假定液体,无论是在散装形式或饱和多孔介质中,可以用一个或一组核磁弛豫线形来表征.对一维核磁共振的拉普拉斯反演,它可以是预先确定的一个或一组T2或T1分布.对二维核磁共振的拉普拉斯反演,它可以是一个或一组预先确定的( D, T2)或( T1, T2)二维分布.对三维核磁共振的拉普拉斯反演,它可以是一个或一组预先设定的( D, T1, T2)三维分布.这些预先确定的线形,可以是高斯、B样条或预先由实验或经验确定的任何线形.这种方法可以显着降低核磁共振数据反演的计算时间,特别是从石油核磁共振测井采集的多维数据反演,它不需牺牲反演所得的分布的平滑性和准确性.这种方法的另一个新应用是作为一种约束求解方法来过滤相邻深度所采集的数据噪音.核磁共振测井的噪音信号,往往造成在相邻深度的同一岩性岩层有不同的T2分布.在此情况下, T2分布就不能用来识别岩性.通过非一般的矩阵操作,作者成功实现了对相邻深度的回波串实施约束求解方法,从而使得T2分布成为一种可靠的岩性识别指标.     

On the stability of nonlinear waves in integrable models

A new method of stability investigation is presented for solutions of nonlinear equations integrable with the help of the inverse scattering transform (IST). The stability problem for periodic nonlinear waves in weakly dispersive media is solved with respect to transverse perturbations. It is shown that for positive dispersion media one-dimensional waves are unstable, and for negative dispersion such waves are stable.     

A derivation of the Lorenz equations for some unstable dispersive physical systems

The amplitude equations which are valid in the neighbourhood of the bifurcation point of a class of dispersively unstable physical systems when small dissipation is included are shown to be transformable to the Lorenz equations. There is a strong connection with systems which yield equations solvable by the inverse scattering transform when damping is excluded and spatial variation included. Two examples are given in very brief detail: (1) a two-layer model for baroclinic instability, (2) the laser equations giving rise to the SIT equations.     

Algebraic Bethe ansatz for integrable Kondo impurities in the one-dimensional supersymmetric t-J model

An integrable Kondo problem in the one-dimensional supersymmetric t-J model is studied by means of the boundary supersymmetric quantum inverse scattering method. the boundary K matrices depending on the local moments of the impurities are presented as a nontrivial realization of the graded reflection equation algebras in a two-dimensional impurity Hilbert space. Further, the model is solved by using the algebraic Bethe ansatz method and the Bethe ansatz equations are obtained.     

Integrable models for the dynamics of a longitudinal-transverse acoustic wave in a crystal with paramagnetic impurities

We theoretically study the evolution of longitudinal-transverse acoustic pulses propagating parallel to an external magnetic field in a system of resonant paramagnetic impurities with an effective spin S=1/2. For equal group velocities of the longitudinal and transverse waves, the pulse dynamics is shown to be described by evolution equations. In limiting cases, these equations reduce to equations integrable in terms of the inverse scattering transform method (ISTM). For the most general integrable system of equations that describes the dynamics of acoustic pulses outside the scope of the slow-envelope approximation, we derive the corresponding ISTM equations. These equations are used to find a soliton solution and a self-similar solution. The latter describes the leading edge of the packet of acoustic pulses generated when the initial unstable state of a spin system decays. Analysis of our solutions and models indicates that the presence of a longitudinal acoustic wave leads not only to a change in the amplitude and phase of the transverse wave but also to a qualitatively new dynamics of sound in such a medium.     

Inverse Scattering Transform in Squared Spectral Parameter for DNLS Equation under Vanishing Boundary Conditions

After a transformation, the inverse scattering transform for the derivative nonlinear Schr6dinger （DNLS） equation is developed in terms of squared spectral parameter. Following this approach, we obtain the orthogonality and completeness relations of free Jost solutions, which is impossibly constructed with usual spectral parameter in the previous works. With the help these relations, the Zakharov-Shabat equations as well as Marchenko equations of IST are derived in the standard way.
