    Permutability of Backlund Transformations for N=2 Supersymmetric Sine-Gordon

    Full text link
    The permutability of two Backlund transformations is employed to construct a non linear superposition formula and to generate a class of solutions for the N=2 super sine-Gordon model.Comment: two references adde

    On a negative flow of the AKNS hierarchy and its relation to a two-component Camassa-Holm equation

    Get PDF
    Different gauge copies of the Ablowitz-Kaup-Newell-Segur (AKNS) model labeled by an angle θ\theta are constructed and then reduced to the two-component Camassa--Holm model. Only three different independent classes of reductions are encountered corresponding to the angle θ\theta being 0, π/2\pi/2 or taking any value in the interval 0<θ<π/20<\theta<\pi/2. This construction induces B\"{a}cklund transformations between solutions of the two-component Camassa--Holm model associated with different classes of reduction.Comment: This is a contribution to the Proc. of the O'Raifeartaigh Symposium on Non-Perturbative and Symmetry Methods in Field Theory (June 2006, Budapest, Hungary), published in SIGMA (Symmetry, Integrability and Geometry: Methods and Applications) at http://www.emis.de/journals/SIGMA

    Darboux-Backlund Derivation of Rational Solutions of the Painleve IV Equation

    Full text link
    Rational solutions of the Painleve IV equation are constructed in the setting of pseudo-differential Lax formalism describing AKNS hierarchy subject to the additional non-isospectral Virasoro symmetry constraint. Convenient Wronskian representations for rational solutions are obtained by successive actions of the Darboux-Backlund transformations.Comment: 21 page

    Affine Lie Algebraic Origin of Constrained KP Hierarchies

    Full text link
    We present an affine sl(n+1)sl (n+1) algebraic construction of the basic constrained KP hierarchy. This hierarchy is analyzed using two approaches, namely linear matrix eigenvalue problem on hermitian symmetric space and constrained KP Lax formulation and we show that these approaches are equivalent. The model is recognized to be the generalized non-linear Schr\"{o}dinger (\GNLS) hierarchy and it is used as a building block for a new class of constrained KP hierarchies. These constrained KP hierarchies are connected via similarity-B\"{a}cklund transformations and interpolate between \GNLS and multi-boson KP-Toda hierarchies. Our construction uncovers origin of the Toda lattice structure behind the latter hierarchy.Comment: 25 pgs, LaTeX, IFT-P/029/94 and UICHEP-TH/93-1

    Integrable Origins of Higher Order Painleve Equations

    Full text link
    Higher order Painleve equations invariant under extended affine Weyl groups An(1)A^{(1)}_n are obtained through self-similarity limit of a class of pseudo-differential Lax hierarchies with symmetry inherited from the underlying generalized Volterra lattice structure.Comment: 18 pages Late

    The Conserved Charges and Integrability of the Conformal Affine Toda Models

    Full text link
    We construct infinite sets of local conserved charges for the conformal affine Toda model. The technique involves the abelianization of the two-dimensional gauge potentials satisfying the zero-curvature form of the equations of motion. We find two infinite sets of chiral charges and apart from two lowest spin charges all the remaining ones do not possess chiral densities. Charges of different chiralities Poisson commute among themselves. We discuss the algebraic properties of these charges and use the fundamental Poisson bracket relation to show that the charges conserved in time are in involution. Connections to other Toda models are established by taking particular limits.Comment: 18 pages, LaTeX, (one appendix and one reference added, small changes in introduction and conclusions, eqs.(5.14) and (5.19) improved, final version to appear in Int.
