Quantized W-algebra of sl(2,1) and quantum parafermions of U_q(sl(2))

In this paper, we establish the connection between the quantized W-algebra of ${\frak sl}(2,1)$ and quantum parafermions of $U_q(\hat {\frak sl}(2))$ that a shifted product of the two quantum parafermions of $U_q(\hat {\frak sl}(2))$ generates the quantized W-algebra of ${\frak sl}(2,1)$

Gauge transformation and reciprocal link for (2+1)-dimensional integrable field systems

Appropriate restrictions of Lax operators which allows to construction of (2+1)-dimensional integrable field systems, coming from centrally extended algebra of pseudo-differential operators, are reviewed. The gauge transformation and the reciprocal link between three classes of Lax hierarchies are established.Comment: to appear in J. Nonl. Math. Phys., 12 page

Generalized St\"ackel Transform and Reciprocal Transformations for Finite-Dimensional Integrable Systems

We present a multiparameter generalization of the St\"ackel transform (the latter is also known as the coupling-constant metamorphosis) and show that under certain conditions this generalized St\"ackel transform preserves the Liouville integrability, noncommutative integrability and superintegrability. The corresponding transformation for the equations of motion proves to be nothing but a reciprocal transformation of a special form, and we investigate the properties of this reciprocal transformation. Finally, we show that the Hamiltonians of the systems possessing separation curves of apparently very different form can be related through a suitably chosen generalized St\"ackel transform.Comment: 21 pages, LaTeX 2e, no figures; major revision; Propositions 2 and 7 and several new references adde

On a class of dynamical systems both quasi-bi-Hamiltonian and bi-Hamiltonian

It is shown that a class of dynamical systems (encompassing the one recently considered by F. Calogero [J. Math. Phys. 37 (1996) 1735]) is both quasi-bi-Hamiltonian and bi-Hamiltonian. The first formulation entails the separability of these systems; the second one is obtained trough a non canonical map whose form is directly suggested by the associated Nijenhuis tensor.Comment: 11 pages, AMS-LaTex 1.

From St\"{a}ckel systems to integrable hierarchies of PDE's: Benenti class of separation relations

We propose a general scheme of constructing of soliton hierarchies from finite dimensional St\"{a}ckel systems and related separation relations. In particular, we concentrate on the simplest class of separation relations, called Benenti class, i.e. certain St\"{a}ckel systems with quadratic in momenta integrals of motion.Comment: 24 page

Maximal superintegrability of Benenti systems

For a class of Hamiltonian systems naturally arising in the modern theory of separation of variables, we establish their maximal superintegrability by explicitly constructing the additional integrals of motion.Comment: 5 pages, LaTeX 2e, to appear in J. Phys. A: Math. Ge

Classification of integrable hydrodynamic chains and generating functions of conservation laws

New approach to classification of integrable hydrodynamic chains is established. Generating functions of conservation laws are classified by the method of hydrodynamic reductions. N parametric family of explicit hydrodynamic reductions allows to reconstruct corresponding hydrodynamic chains. Plenty new hydrodynamic chains are found

Notes on Exact Multi-Soliton Solutions of Noncommutative Integrable Hierarchies

We study exact multi-soliton solutions of integrable hierarchies on noncommutative space-times which are represented in terms of quasi-determinants of Wronski matrices by Etingof, Gelfand and Retakh. We analyze the asymptotic behavior of the multi-soliton solutions and found that the asymptotic configurations in soliton scattering process can be all the same as commutative ones, that is, the configuration of N-soliton solution has N isolated localized energy densities and the each solitary wave-packet preserves its shape and velocity in the scattering process. The phase shifts are also the same as commutative ones. Furthermore noncommutative toroidal Gelfand-Dickey hierarchy is introduced and the exact multi-soliton solutions are given.Comment: 18 pages, v3: references added, version to appear in JHE

A new approach to deformation equations of noncommutative KP hierarchies

Partly inspired by Sato's theory of the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (KP) hierarchy, we start with a quite general hierarchy of linear ordinary differential equations in a space of matrices and derive from it a matrix Riccati hierarchy. The latter is then shown to exhibit an underlying 'weakly nonassociative' (WNA) algebra structure, from which we can conclude, refering to previous work, that any solution of the Riccati system also solves the potential KP hierarchy (in the corresponding matrix algebra). We then turn to the case where the components of the matrices are multiplied using a (generalized) star product. Associated with the deformation parameters, there are additional symmetries (flow equations) which enlarge the respective KP hierarchy. They have a compact formulation in terms of the WNA structure. We also present a formulation of the KP hierarchy equations themselves as deformation flow equations.Comment: 25 page
