Classical Poisson structures and r-matrices from constrained flows

We construct the classical Poisson structure and $r$-matrix for some finite dimensional integrable Hamiltonian systems obtained by constraining the flows of soliton equations in a certain way. This approach allows one to produce new kinds of classical, dynamical Yang-Baxter structures. To illustrate the method we present the $r$-matrices associated with the constrained flows of the Kaup-Newell, KdV, AKNS, WKI and TG hierarchies, all generated by a 2-dimensional eigenvalue problem. Some of the obtained $r$-matrices depend only on the spectral parameters, but others depend also on the dynamical variables. For consistency they have to obey a classical Yang-Baxter-type equation, possibly with dynamical extra terms.Comment: 16 pages in LaTe

Perturbative analysis of wave interactions in nonlinear systems

This work proposes a new way for handling obstacles to asymptotic integrability in perturbed nonlinear PDEs within the method of Normal Forms - NF - for the case of multi-wave solutions. Instead of including the whole obstacle in the NF, only its resonant part is included, and the remainder is assigned to the homological equation. This leaves the NF intergable and its solutons retain the character of the solutions of the unperturbed equation. We exploit the freedom in the expansion to construct canonical obstacles which are confined to te interaction region of the waves. Fo soliton solutions, e.g., in the KdV equation, the interaction region is a finite domain around the origin; the canonical obstacles then do not generate secular terms in the homological equation. When the interaction region is infifnite, or semi-infinite, e.g., in wave-front solutions of the Burgers equation, the obstacles may contain resonant terms. The obstacles generate waves of a new type, which cannot be written as functionals of the solutions of the NF. When an obstacle contributes a resonant term to the NF, this leads to a non-standard update of th wave velocity.Comment: 13 pages, including 6 figure

A new method to introduce additional separated variables for high-order binary constrained flows

Degrees of freedom for high-order binary constrained flows of soliton equations admitting $2\times 2$ Lax matrices are $2N+k_0$. It is known that $N+k_0$ pairs of canonical separated variables for their separation of variables can be introduced directly via their Lax matrices. In present paper we propose a new method to introduce the additional $N$ pairs of canonical separated variables and $N$ additional separated equations. The Jacobi inversion problems for high-order binary constrained flows and for soliton equations are also established. This new method can be applied to all high-order binary constrained flows admitting $2\times 2$ Lax matrices.Comment: 34 pages, AmsTex, to be published in J. Phys.
