Dressing method and the coupled KP hierarchy

The coupled KP hierarchy, introduced by Hirota and Ohta, are investigated by using the dressing method. It is shown that the coupled KP hierarchy can be reformulated as a reduced case of the 2-component KP hierarchy.Comment: 11 pages, LaTeX, no figure

Bilinearization of Discrete Soliton Equations and Singularity Confinement

Bilinear forms for some nonlinear partial difference equations(discrete soliton equations) are derived based on the results of singularity confinement. Using the bilinear forms, the N-soliton and algebraic solutions of the discrete potential mKdV equation are constructed.Comment: 14 pages, LaTe

Constructing a Supersymmetric Integrable System from the Hirota Method in Superspace

An N=1 supersymmetric system is constructed and its integrability is shown by obtaining three soliton solutions for it using the supersymmetric version of Hirota's direct method.Comment: 10 pages, no figure

Geometric quantization of Dirac manifolds

We define prequantization for Dirac manifolds to generalize known procedures for Poisson and (pre) symplectic manifolds by using characteristic distributions obtained from 2-cocycles associated to Dirac structures. Given a Dirac manifold $(M,D)$, we construct Poisson structure on the space of admissible functions on $(M,D)$ and a representation of the Poisson algebra to establish the prequantization condition of $(M,D)$ in terms of a Lie algebroid cohomology. Additional to this, we introduce a polarization for a Dirac manifold $M$ and discuss procedures for quantization in two cases where $M$ is compact and where $M$ is not compact.Comment: 33 pages. errors and typos correcte
