    Algorithmic Integrability Tests for Nonlinear Differential and Lattice Equations

    Full text link
    Three symbolic algorithms for testing the integrability of polynomial systems of partial differential and differential-difference equations are presented. The first algorithm is the well-known Painlev\'e test, which is applicable to polynomial systems of ordinary and partial differential equations. The second and third algorithms allow one to explicitly compute polynomial conserved densities and higher-order symmetries of nonlinear evolution and lattice equations. The first algorithm is implemented in the symbolic syntax of both Macsyma and Mathematica. The second and third algorithms are available in Mathematica. The codes can be used for computer-aided integrability testing of nonlinear differential and lattice equations as they occur in various branches of the sciences and engineering. Applied to systems with parameters, the codes can determine the conditions on the parameters so that the systems pass the Painlev\'e test, or admit a sequence of conserved densities or higher-order symmetries.Comment: Submitted to: Computer Physics Communications, Latex, uses the style files elsart.sty and elsart12.st

    Mathematical structures of integrable systems, its deepening and expansion. September 9-11, 2019. edited by Takao Suzuki. The papers presented in this volume of RIMS Kôkyûroku Bessatsu are in final form and refereed.Okounkov's generating function of the double Hurwitz numbers of the Riemann sphere is a hypergeometric tau function of the 2D Toda hierarchy in the sense of Orlov and Scherbin. This tau function turns into a tau function of the lattice KP hierarchy by specializing one of the two sets of time variables to constants. When these constants are particular values, the specialized tau functions become solutions of various reductions of the lattice KP hierarchy, such as the lattice Gelfand-Dickey hierarchy, the Bogoyavlensky-Itoh-Narita lattice and the Ablowitz-Ladik hierarchy. These reductions contain previously unknown integrable hierarchies as well

    Order out of Randomness : Self-Organization Processes in Astrophysics

    Full text link
    Self-organization is a property of dissipative nonlinear processes that are governed by an internal driver and a positive feedback mechanism, which creates regular geometric and/or temporal patterns and decreases the entropy, in contrast to random processes. Here we investigate for the first time a comprehensive number of 16 self-organization processes that operate in planetary physics, solar physics, stellar physics, galactic physics, and cosmology. Self-organizing systems create spontaneous {\sl order out of chaos}, during the evolution from an initially disordered system to an ordered stationary system, via quasi-periodic limit-cycle dynamics, harmonic mechanical resonances, or gyromagnetic resonances. The internal driver can be gravity, rotation, thermal pressure, or acceleration of nonthermal particles, while the positive feedback mechanism is often an instability, such as the magneto-rotational instability, the Rayleigh-B\'enard convection instability, turbulence, vortex attraction, magnetic reconnection, plasma condensation, or loss-cone instability. Physical models of astrophysical self-organization processes involve hydrodynamic, MHD, and N-body formulations of Lotka-Volterra equation systems.Comment: 61 pages, 38 Figure

    Discrete time Bogoyavlensky lattices

    Full text link
    Discretizations of the Bogoyavlensky lattices are introduced, belonging to the same hierarchies as the continuous--time systems. The construction exemplifies the general scheme for integrable discretization of systems on Lie algebras with rr--matrix Poisson brackets. An initial value problem for the difference equations is solved in terms of a factorization problem in a group. Interpolating Hamiltonian flow is found.Comment: 22 pages, LaTeX, revised version (the third lattice discretized now!

    Darboux transformations and Recursion operators for differential--difference equations

    Get PDF
    In this paper we review two concepts directly related to the Lax representations: Darboux transformations and Recursion operators for integrable systems. We then present an extensive list of integrable differential-difference equations together with their Hamiltonian structures, recursion operators, nontrivial generalised symmetries and Darboux-Lax representations. The new results include multi-Hamiltonian structures and recursion operators for integrable Volterra type equations, integrable discretisation of derivative nonlinear Schroedinger equations such as the Kaup-Newell lattice, the Chen-Lee-Liulattice and the Ablowitz-Ramani-Segur (Gerdjikov-Ivanov) lattice. We also compute the weakly nonlocal inverse recursion operators
