Two hierarchies of integrable lattice equations associated with a discrete matrix spectral problem

Two hierarchies of nonlinear integrable positive and negative lattice models are derived from a discrete spectral problem. The two lattice hierarchies are proved to have discrete zero curvature representations associated with a discrete spectral problem, which also shows that the positive and negative hierarchies correspond to positive and negative power expansions of Lax operators with respect to the spectral parameter, respectively. Moreover, the integrable lattice models in the positive hierarchy are of polynomial type, and the integrable lattice models in the negative hierarchy are of rational type. Further, we construct infinite conservation laws of the positive hierarchy, then, the integrable coupling systems of the positive hierarchy are derived from enlarging Lax pair.     

Positive and Negative Hierarchies of Integrable Lattice Models Associated with a Hamiltonian Pair

A difference Hamiltonian operator involving two arbitrary constants is presented, and it is used to construct a pair of nondegenerate Hamiltonian operators. The resulting Hamiltonian pair yields two difference hereditary operators, and the associated positive and negative hierarchies of nonlinear integrable lattice models are derived through the bi-Hamiltonian formulation. Moreover, the two lattice hierarchies are proved to have discrete zero curvature representations associated with a discrete spectral problem, which also shows that the positive and negative hierarchies correspond to positive and negative power expansions of Lax operators with respect to the spectral parameter, respectively. The use of zero curvature equation leads us to conclude that all resulting integrable lattice models are local and that the integrable lattice models in the positive hierarchy are of polynomial type and the integrable lattice models in the negative hierarchy are of rational type.     

Dark Equations and Their Light Integrability

A relatively new approach to analyzing integrability, based upon differential-algebraic and symplectic techniques, is applied to some “dark equations ”of the type introduced by Boris Kupershmidt. These dark equations have unusual properties and are not particularly well-understood. In particular, dark three-component polynomial Burgers type systems are studied in detail. Their matrix Lax representations are constructed, and the related symmetry recursion operators and infinite hierarchies of integrable nonlinear dynamical systems along with their Lax representations are derived. New linear Lax spectral problems for dark integrable countable hierarchies of dynamical systems are proposed and some special cases are considered as a means of indicating that the approach presented is applicable to a far wider class of dark equations than analyzed here.     

Constraints and Soliton Solutions for KdV Hierarchy and AKNS Hierarchy

It is well-known that the finite-gap solutions of the KdV equationcan be generated by its recursion operator.We generalize the result to a special form of Lax pair,from which a method to constrain the integrable system to alower-dimensional or fewer variable integrable system is proposed.A direct result is that the n-soliton solutions of the KdV hierarchy can be completely depictedby a series of ordinary differential equations (ODEs), which may be gotten by a simple but unfamiliar Lax pair. Furthermore the AKNS hierarchy is constrained to a series of univariate integrable hierarchies. The key is a special form of Lax pair for the AKNS hierarchy. It is proved that under the constraints all equations of the AKNS hierarchy are linearizable.     

Two types of loop algebras and their expanding Lax integrable models

Though various integrable hierarchies of evolution equations were obtained by choosing proper U in zero-curvature equation U_t-V_x+[U,V]=0, but in this paper, a new integrable hierarchy possessing bi-Hamiltonian structure is worked out by selecting V with spectral potentials. Then its expanding Lax integrable model of the hierarchy possessing a simple Hamiltonian operator \widetilde{J} is presented by constructing a subalgebra \widetilde{G } of the loop algebra \widetilde A₂. As linear expansions of the above-mentioned integrable hierarchy and its expanding Lax integrable model with respect to their dimensional numbers, their (2+1)-dimensional forms are derived from a (2+1)-dimensional zero-curvature equation.     

On the integrable hierarchies associated with the N = 2 super Wn algebra

A new Lax operator is proposed from the viewpoint of constructing the integrable hierarchies related with the N = 2 super W_n algebra. It is shown that the Poisson algebra associated to the second Hamiltonian structure for the resulting hierarchy contains the N = 2 super Virasoro algebra as a proper subalgebra. The simplest cases are discussed in detail. In particular, it is proved that the supersymmetric two-boson hierarchy is one of the N = 2 supersymmetric KdV hierarchies. Also, a Lax operator is supplied for one of the N = 2 supersymmetric Boussinesq hierarchies.     

Toda lattice realization of integrable hierarchies

We present a new realization of scalar integrable hierarchies in terms of the Toda lattice hierarchy. In other words, we show on a large number of examples that an integrable hierarchy, defined by a pseudo-differential Lax operator, can be embedded in the Toda lattice hierarchy. Such a realization in terms the Toda lattice hierarchy seems to be as general as the Drinfeld-Sokolov realization.     

Virasoro symmetry of constrained KP hierarchies

The conventional formulation of additional nonisospectral sysmmetries for the full Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (KP) integrable hierarchy is not compatible with the reduction to the important class of constrained KP (cKP) integrable models. This paper solves explicitly the problem of compatibility of the Virasoro part of additional symmetries with the underlying constraints of cKP hierarchies. Our construction involves an appropriate modification of the standard additional-symmetry flows by adding a set of “ghost symmetry” flows. We also discuss the special case of cKP — truncated KP hierarchies, obtained as Darboux-Bäcklund orbits of initial purely differential Lax operators. Our construction establishes the condition for commutativity of the additional-symmetry flows with the discrete Darboux-Bäcklund transformations of cKP hierarchies leading to a new derivation of the string-equation constraint in matrix models.     

A new “dual” symmetry structure of the KP hierarchy

A new infinite set of commuting additional (“ghost”) symmetries is proposed for the KP-type integrable hierarchy. These symmetries allow for a Lax representation in which they are realized as standard isospectral flows. This gives rise to a new double-KP hierarchy embedding “ghost” and original KP-type Lax hierarchies connected to each other via a “duality” mapping exchanging the isospectral and “ghost” “times”. A new representation of the 2D Toda lattice hierarchy as a special Darboux-Bäcklund orbit of the double-KP hierarchy is found and parametrized entirely in terms of (adjoint) eigenfunctions of the original KP subsystem.     

Classical Affine {\mathcal{W}}-Algebras for {\mathfrak{gl}_N} and Associated Integrable Hamiltonian Hierarchies

We apply the new method for constructing integrable Hamiltonian hierarchies of Lax type equations developed in our previous paper to show that all \({\mathcal{W}}\)-algebras \({\mathcal{W}(\mathfrak{gl}N, f)}\) carry such a hierarchy. As an application, we show that all vector constrained KP hierarchies and their matrix generalizations are obtained from these hierarchies by Dirac reduction, which provides the former with a bi-Poisson structure.     

Hierarchies of multi-component mKP equations and theirs integrable couplings

First, a new multi-component modified Kadomtsev-Petviashvill (mKP) spectral problem is constructed by k-constraint imposed on a general pseudo-differential operator. Then, two hierarchies of multi-component mKP equations are derived, including positive non-isospectral mKP hierarchy and negative non-isospectral mKP hierarchy. Moreover, new integrable couplings of the resulting mKP soliton hierarchies are constructed by enlarging the associated matrix spectral problem.     

Two hierarchies of multi-component Kaup-Newell equations and theirs integrable couplings

Two hierarchies of multi-component Kaup-Newell equations are derived from an arbitrary order matrix spectral problem, including positive non-isospectral Kaup-Newell hierarchy and negative non-isospectral Kaup-Newell hierarchy. Moreover, new integrable couplings of the resulting Kaup-Newell soliton hierarchies are constructed by enlarging the associated matrix spectral problem.     

Symmetries and conservation laws of lattice Boussinesq equations

Sequences of canonical conservation laws and generalized symmetries for the lattice Boussinesq and the lattice modified Boussinesq systems are successively derived. The interpretation of these symmetries as differential-difference equations leads to corresponding hierarchies of such equations for which conservation laws and Lax pairs are constructed. Finally, using the continuous symmetry reduction approach, an integrable, multidimensionally consistent system of partial differential equations is derived in relation with the lattice modified Boussinesq system.     

A Few Expanding Integrable Models,Hamiltonian Structures and Constrained Flows

Two kinds of higher-dimensional Lie algebras and their loop algebras are introduced, for which a few expanding integrable models including the coupling integrable couplings of the Broer-Kaup (BK) hierarchy and the dispersive long wave (DLW) hierarchy as well as the TB hierarchy are obtained. From the reductions of the coupling integrable couplings, the corresponding coupled integrable couplings of the BK equation, the DLW equation, and the TB equation are obtained, respectively. Especially, thecoupling integrable coupling of the TB equation reduces to a few integrable couplings of the well-known mKdV equation. The Hamiltonian structures of the coupling integrable couplings of the three kinds of soliton hierarchies are worked out, respectively, by employing the variational identity. Finally, we decompose the BK hierarchy of evolution equations into x-constrained flows and t_n-constrained flows whose adjoint representations and the Lax pairs are given.     

RECURSION OPERATORS FOR KP,mKP AND HARRY DYM HIERARCHIES

In this paper, we give a unified construction of the recursion operators from the Lax representation for three integrable hierarchies: Kadomtsev–Petviashvili (KP), modified Kadomtsev–Petviashvili (mKP) and Harry Dym under n-reduction. This shows a new inherent relationship between them. To illustrate our construction, the recursion operator are calculated explicitly for 2-reduction and 3-reduction.     

A New Scheme of Integrability for (bi)Hamiltonian PDE

We develop a new method for constructing integrable Hamiltonian hierarchies of Lax type equations, which combines the fractional powers technique of Gelfand and Dickey, and the classical Hamiltonian reduction technique of Drinfeld and Sokolov. The method is based on the notion of an Adler type matrix pseudodifferential operator and the notion of a generalized quasideterminant. We also introduce the notion of a dispersionless Adler type series, which is applied to the study of dispersionless Hamiltonian equations. Non-commutative Hamiltonian equations are discussed in this framework as well.     

The Finite-Dimensional Moser Type Reduction of Modified Boussinesq and Super-Korteweg-de Vries Hamiltonian Systems via the Gradient-Holonomic Algorithm and Dual Moment Maps. Part I

Abstract

The Moser type reductions of modified Boussinessq and super-Korteweg-de Vries equations upon the finite-dimensional invariant subspaces of solutions are considered. For the Hamiltonian and Liouville integrable finite-dimensional dynamical systems concerned with the invariant subspaces, the Lax representations via the dual moment maps into some deformed loop algebras and the finite hierarchies of conservation laws are obtained. A supergeneralization of the Neumann dynamical system is presented.     

Towards Lax Formulation of Integrable Hierarchies of Topological Type

To each partition function of cohomological field theory one can associate an Hamiltonian integrable hierarchy of topological type. The Givental group acts on such partition functions and consequently on the associated integrable hierarchies. We consider the Hirota and Lax formulations of the deformation of the hierarchy of N copies of KdV obtained by an infinitesimal action of the Givental group. By first deforming the Hirota quadratic equations and then applying a fundamental lemma to express it in terms of pseudo-differential operators, we show that such deformed hierarchy admits an explicit Lax formulation. We then compare the deformed Hamiltonians obtained from the Lax equations with the analogous formulas obtained in Buryak et al. (J Differ Geom 92:153–185, 2012), Buryak et al. (J Geom Phys 62:1639–1651, 2012) to find that they agree. We finally comment on the possibility of extending the Hirota and Lax formulation on the whole orbit of the Givental group action.     

Bargmann Symmetry Constraint for a Family of Liouville Integrable Differential-Difference Equations

A family of integrable differential-difference equations is derived from a new matrix spectral problem. The Hamiltonian forms of obtained differential-difference equations are constructed. The Liouville integrability for the obtained integrable family is proved. Then, Bargmann symmetry constraint of the obtained integrable family is presented by binary nonliearization method of Lax pairs and adjoint Lax pairs. Under this Bargmann symmetry constraints, an integrable symplectic map and a sequences of completely integrable finite-dimensional Hamiltonian systems in Liouville sense are worked out, and every integrable differential-difference equations in the obtained family is factored by the integrable symplectic map and a completely integrable finite-dimensional Hamiltonian system.

A new integrable symplectic map is given by binary Bargmann constraint of the resulting hierarchy. Finally, an infinite set of conservation laws is given for the resulting hierarchy.
