Spherical geometry and integrable systems
We prove that the cosine law for spherical triangles and spherical tetrahedra
defines integrable systems, both in the sense of multidimensional consistency
and in the sense of dynamical systems.Comment: 15 pages, 5 figure
On the Integrability of the Discrete Nonlinear Schroedinger Equation
In this letter we present an analytic evidence of the non-integrability of
the discrete nonlinear Schroedinger equation, a well-known discrete evolution
equation which has been obtained in various contexts of physics and biology. We
use a reductive perturbation technique to show an obstruction to its
integrability.Comment: 4 pages, accepted in EP
Discrete Reductive Perturbation Technique
We expand a partial difference equation (PE) on multiple lattices and
obtain the PE which governs its far field behaviour. The
perturbative--reductive approach is here performed on well known nonlinear
PEs, both integrable and non integrable. We study the cases of the
lattice modified Korteweg--de Vries (mKdV) equation, the Hietarinta equation,
the lattice Volterra--Kac--Van Moerbeke (VKVM) equation and a non integrable
lattice KdV equation. Such reductions allow us to obtain many new PEs
of the nonlinear Schr\"odinger (NLS) type.Comment: 18 pages, 1 figure. submitted to Journal of Mathematical Physic
On integrability of Hirota-Kimura type discretizations
We give an overview of the integrability of the Hirota-Kimura discretization
method applied to algebraically completely integrable (a.c.i.) systems with
quadratic vector fields. Along with the description of the basic mechanism of
integrability (Hirota-Kimura bases), we provide the reader with a fairly
complete list of the currently available results for concrete a.c.i. systems.Comment: 47 pages, some minor change
From su(2) Gaudin Models to Integrable Tops
In the present paper we derive two well-known integrable cases of rigid body dynamics (the Lagrange top and the Clebsch system) performing an algebraic contraction on the two-body Lax matrices governing the (classical) su(2) Gaudin models. The procedure preserves the linear r-matrix formulation of the ancestor models. We give the Lax representation of the resulting integrable systems in terms of su(2) Lax matrices with rational and elliptic dependencies on the spectral parameter. We finally give some results about the many-body extensions of the constructed systems
New Formula for the Eigenvectors of the Gaudin Model in the sl(3) Case
We propose new formulas for eigenvectors of the Gaudin model in the \sl(3)
case. The central point of the construction is the explicit form of some
operator P, which is used for derivation of eigenvalues given by the formula , where , fulfil
the standard well-know Bethe Ansatz equations
The lattice Schwarzian KdV equation and its symmetries
In this paper we present a set of results on the symmetries of the lattice
Schwarzian Korteweg-de Vries (lSKdV) equation. We construct the Lie point
symmetries and, using its associated spectral problem, an infinite sequence of
generalized symmetries and master symmetries. We finally show that we can use
master symmetries of the lSKdV equation to construct non-autonomous
non-integrable generalized symmetries.Comment: 11 pages, no figures. Submitted to Jour. Phys. A, Special Issue SIDE

On Miura Transformations and Volterra-Type Equations Associated with the Adler-Bobenko-Suris Equations
We construct Miura transformations mapping the scalar spectral problems of the integrable lattice equations belonging to the Adler-Bobenko-Suris (ABS) list into the discrete Schrödinger spectral problem associated with Volterra-type equations. We show that the ABS equations correspond to Bäcklund transformations for some particular cases of the discrete Krichever-Novikov equation found by Yamilov (YdKN equation). This enables us to construct new generalized symmetries for the ABS equations. The same can be said about the generalizations of the ABS equations introduced by Tongas, Tsoubelis and Xenitidis. All of them generate Bäcklund transformations for the YdKN equation. The higher order generalized symmetries we construct in the present paper confirm their integrability
