Binary Bell polynomials approach to the integrability of nonisospectral and variable-coefficient nonlinear equations

Recently, Lembert, Gilson et al proposed a lucid and systematic approach to obtain bilinear B\"{a}cklund transformations and Lax pairs for constant-coefficient soliton equations based on the use of binary Bell polynomials. In this paper, we would like to further develop this method with new applications. We extend this method to systematically investigate complete integrability of nonisospectral and variable-coefficient equations. In addiction, a method is described for deriving infinite conservation laws of nonlinear evolution equations based on the use of binary Bell polynomials. All conserved density and flux are given by explicit recursion formulas. By taking variable-coefficient KdV and KP equations as illustrative examples, their bilinear formulism, bilinear B\"{a}cklund transformations, Lax pairs, Darboux covariant Lax pairs and conservation laws are obtained in a quick and natural manner. In conclusion, though the coefficient functions have influences on a variable-coefficient nonlinear equation, under certain constrains the equation turn out to be also completely integrable, which leads us to a canonical interpretation of their $N$-soliton solutions in theory.Comment: 39 page

Algebro-geometric solutions for the two-component Hunter-Saxton hierarchy

This paper is dedicated to provide theta function representations of algebro-geometric solutions and related crucial quantities for the two-component Hunter-Saxton (HS2) hierarchy through studying an algebro-geometric initial value problem. Our main tools include the polynomial recursive formalism, the hyperelliptic curve with finite number of genus, the Baker-Akhiezer functions, the meromorphic function, the Dubrovin-type equations for auxiliary divisors, and the associated trace formulas. With the help of these tools, the explicit representations of the algebro-geometric solutions are obtained for the entire HS2 hierarchy.Comment: 46 pages. accepted for publication J Nonl Math Phys, 2014. arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with arXiv:1406.6153, arXiv:1207.0574, arXiv:1205.6062; and with arXiv:nlin/0105021 by other author

Initial-boundary value problem for integrable nonlinear evolution equations with 3×33\times 3 Lax pairs on the interval

We present an approach for analyzing initial-boundary value problems which is formulated on the finite interval ($0\le x\le L$, where $L$ is a positive constant) for integrable equations whose Lax pairs involve $3\times 3$ matrices. Boundary value problems for integrable nonlinear evolution PDEs can be analyzed by the unified method introduced by Fokas and developed by him and his collaborators. In this paper, we show that the solution can be expressed in terms of the solution of a $3\times 3$ Riemann-Hilbert problem. The relevant jump matrices are explicitly given in terms of the three matrix-value spectral functions $s(k)$,$S(k)$ and $S_L(k)$, which in turn are defined in terms of the initial values, boundary values at $x=0$ and boundary values at $x=L$, respectively. However, these spectral functions are not independent, they satisfy a global relation. Here, we show that the characterization of the unknown boundary values in terms of the given initial and boundary data is explicitly described for a nonlinear evolution PDE defined on the interval. Also, we show that in the limit when the length of the interval tends to infity, the relevant formulas reduce to the analogous formulas obtained for the case of boundary value problems formulated on the half-line.Comment: arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with arXiv:1304.4586; text overlap with arXiv:1108.2875 by other author

The Ostrovsky-Vakhnenko equation on the half-line: a Riemann-Hilbert approach

We analyze an initial-boundary value problem for the Ostrovsky-Vakhnenko equation on the half-line. This equation can be viewed as the short wave model for the Degasperis-Procesi (DP) equation. We show that the solution u(x,t) can be recovered from its initial and boundary values via the solution of a 3\times 3 vector Riemann-Hilbert problem formulated in the complex plane of a spectral parameter z.Comment: 25 pages. arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1204.5252, arXiv:1311.0495 by other author

Explicit quasi-periodic wave solutions and asymptotic analysis to the supersymmetric Ito's equation

Based on a Riemann theta function and the super-Hirota bilinear form, we propose a key formula for explicitly constructing quasi-periodic wave solutions of the supersymmetric Ito's equation in superspace $\mathbb{C}_{\Lambda}^{2,1}$. Once a nonlinear equation is written in bilinear forms, then the quasi-periodic wave solutions can be directly obtained from our formula. The relations between the periodic wave solutions and the well-known soliton solutions are rigorously established. It is shown that the quasi-periodic wave solutions tends to the soliton solutions under small amplitude limits

A Riemann theta function formula with its application to double periodic wave solutions of nonlinear equations

Based on a Riemann theta function and Hirota's bilinear form, a lucid and straightforward way is presented to explicitly construct double periodic wave solutions for both nonlinear differential and difference equations. Once such a equation is written in a bilinear form, its periodic wave solutions can be directly obtained by using an unified theta function formula. The relations between the periodic wave solutions and soliton solutions are rigorously established. The efficiency of our proposed method can be demonstrated on a class variety of nonlinear equations such as those considered in this paper, shall water wave equation, (2+1)-dimensional Bogoyavlenskii-Schiff equation and differential-difference KdV equation.Comment: 16 page

On Negative Order KdV Equations

In this paper, based on the regular KdV system, we study negative order KdV (NKdV) equations about their Hamiltonian structures, Lax pairs, infinitely many conservation laws, and explicit multi-soliton and multi-kink wave solutions thorough bilinear B\"{a}cklund transformations. The NKdV equations studied in our paper are differential and actually derived from the first member in the negative order KdV hierarchy. The NKdV equations are not only gauge-equivalent to the Camassa-Holm equation through some hodograph transformations, but also closely related to the Ermakov-Pinney systems, and the Kupershmidt deformation. The bi-Hamiltonian structures and a Darboux transformation of the NKdV equations are constructed with the aid of trace identity and their Lax pairs, respectively. The single and double kink wave and bell soliton solutions are given in an explicit formula through the Darboux transformation. The 1-kink wave solution is expressed in the form of $tanh$ while the 1-bell soliton is in the form of $sech$, and both forms are very standard. The collisions of 2-kink-wave and 2-bell-soliton solutions, are analyzed in details, and this singular interaction is a big difference from the regular KdV equation. Multi-dimensional binary Bell polynomials are employed to find bilinear formulation and B\"{a}cklund transformations, which produce $N$-soliton solutions. A direct and unifying scheme is proposed for explicitly building up quasi-periodic wave solutions of the NKdV equations. Furthermore, the relations between quasi-periodic wave solutions and soliton solutions are clearly described. Finally, we show the quasi-periodic wave solution convergent to the soliton solution under some limit conditions.Comment: 61 pages, 4 figure

Long-time asymptotic for the derivative nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation with decaying initial value

We present a new Riemann-Hilbert problem formalism for the initial value problem for the derivative nonlinear Schr\"odinger (DNLS) equation on the line. We show that the solution of this initial value problem can be obtained from the solution of some associated Riemann-Hilbert problem. This new Riemann-Hilbert problem for the DNLS equation will lead us to use nonlinear steepest-descent/stationary phase method or Deift-Zhou method to derive the long-time asymptotic for the DNLS equation on the line.Comment: 41 page

Reality problems for the Algebro-Geometric Solutions of Fokas-Lenell hierarchy

In a previous study, we obtained the algebro-geometric solutions and $n$-dark solitons of Forkas-Lenells (FL) hierarchy using algebro-geometric method. In this paper, we construct physically relevant classes of solutions for FL hierarchy by studying the reality conditions for $q=\pm \bar{r}$ based on the idea of Vinikov's homological basis.Comment: 27 page
