    Generalized hydrodynamic reductions of the kinetic equation for a soliton gas

    Get PDF
    We derive generalized multiflow hydrodynamic reductions of the nonlocal kinetic equation for a soliton gas and investigate their structure. These reductions not only provide further insight into the properties of the new kinetic equation but also could prove to be representatives of a novel class of integrable systems of hydrodynamic type beyond the conventional semi-Hamiltonian framework

    Non polynomial conservation law densities generated by the symmetry operators in some hydrodynamical models

    Full text link
    New extra series of conserved densities for the polytropic gas model and nonlinear elasticity equation are obtained without any references to the recursion operator or to the Lax operator formalism. Our method based on the utilization of the symmetry operators and allows us to obtain the densities of arbitrary homogenuity dimensions. The nonpolynomial densities with logarithmics behaviour are presented as an example. The special attention is paid for the singular case (γ=1)(\gamma=1) for which we found new non homogenious solutions expressed in terms of the elementary functions.Comment: 11 pages, 1 figur

    Multi-Lagrangians for Integrable Systems

    We propose a general scheme to construct multiple Lagrangians for completely integrable non-linear evolution equations that admit multi- Hamiltonian structure. The recursion operator plays a fundamental role in this construction. We use a conserved quantity higher/lower than the Hamiltonian in the potential part of the new Lagrangian and determine the corresponding kinetic terms by generating the appropriate momentum map. This leads to some remarkable new developments. We show that nonlinear evolutionary systems that admit NN-fold first order local Hamiltonian structure can be cast into variational form with 2N−12N-1 Lagrangians which will be local functionals of Clebsch potentials. This number increases to 3N−23N-2 when the Miura transformation is invertible. Furthermore we construct a new Lagrangian for polytropic gas dynamics in 1+11+1 dimensions which is a {\it local} functional of the physical field variables, namely density and velocity, thus dispensing with the necessity of introducing Clebsch potentials entirely. This is a consequence of bi-Hamiltonian structure with a compatible pair of first and third order Hamiltonian operators derived from Sheftel's recursion operator.Comment: typos corrected and a reference adde
