Whitham systems and deformations
We consider the deformations of Whitham systems including the "dispersion
terms" and having the form of Dubrovin-Zhang deformations of Frobenius
manifolds. The procedure is connected with B.A. Dubrovin problem of
deformations of Frobenius manifolds corresponding to the Whitham systems of
integrable hierarchies. Under some non-degeneracy requirements we suggest a
general scheme of the deformation of the hyperbolic Whitham systems using the
initial non-linear system. The general form of the deformed Whitham system
coincides with the form of the "low-dispersion" asymptotic expansions used by
B.A. Dubrovin and Y. Zhang in the theory of deformations of Frobenius
manifolds.Comment: 27 pages, Late
Weakly-nonlocal Symplectic Structures, Whitham method, and weakly-nonlocal Symplectic Structures of Hydrodynamic Type
We consider the special type of the field-theoretical Symplectic structures
called weakly nonlocal. The structures of this type are in particular very
common for the integrable systems like KdV or NLS. We introduce here the
special class of the weakly nonlocal Symplectic structures which we call the
weakly nonlocal Symplectic structures of Hydrodynamic Type. We investigate then
the connection of such structures with the Whitham averaging method and propose
the procedure of "averaging" of the weakly nonlocal Symplectic structures. The
averaging procedure gives the weakly nonlocal Symplectic Structure of
Hydrodynamic Type for the corresponding Whitham system. The procedure gives
also the "action variables" corresponding to the wave numbers of -phase
solutions of initial system which give the additional conservation laws for the
Whitham system.Comment: 64 pages, Late
Hard loss of stability in Painlev\'e-2 equation
A special asymptotic solution of the Painlev\'e-2 equation with small
parameter is studied. This solution has a critical point corresponding to
a bifurcation phenomenon. When the constructed solution varies slowly
and when the solution oscillates very fast. We investigate the
transitional layer in detail and obtain a smooth asymptotic solution, using a
sequence of scaling and matching procedures
