Darboux transformations, finite reduction groups and related Yang-Baxter maps

In this paper we construct Yang-Baxter (YB) maps using Darboux matrices which are invariant under the action of finite reduction groups. We present 6-dimensional YB maps corresponding to Darboux transformations for the Nonlinear Schr\"odinger (NLS) equation and the derivative Nonlinear Schr\"odinger (DNLS) equation. These YB maps can be restricted to $4-$dimensional YB maps on invariant leaves. The former are completely integrable and they also have applications to a recent theory of maps preserving functions with symmetries \cite{Allan-Pavlos}. We give a $6-$ dimensional YB-map corresponding to the Darboux transformation for a deformation of the DNLS equation. We also consider vector generalisations of the YB maps corresponding to the NLS and DNLS equation.Comment: 18 pages, revised version. The format of the paper has changed, we added one sectio

Partially integrable nonlinear equations with one higher symmetry

In this letter, we present a family of second order in time nonlinear partial differential equations, which have only one higher symmetry. These equations are not integrable, but have a solution depending on one arbitrary function
