On the One Class of Hyperbolic Systems

The classification problem is solved for some type of nonlinear lattices. These lattices are closely related to the lattices of Ruijsenaars-Toda type and define the Backlund auto-transformations for the class of two-component hyperbolic systems.Comment: This is a contribution to the Vadim Kuznetsov Memorial Issue on Integrable Systems and Related Topics, published in SIGMA (Symmetry, Integrability and Geometry: Methods and Applications) at http://www.emis.de/journals/SIGMA

Cosmological perturbations in SFT inspired non-local scalar field models

We study cosmological perturbations in models with a single non-local scalar field originating from the string field theory description of the rolling tachyon dynamics. We construct the equation for the energy density perturbations of the non-local scalar field and explicitly prove that for the free field it is identical to a system of local cosmological perturbation equations in a particular model with multiple (maybe infinitely many) local free scalar fields.Comment: 21 pages, no figures, v3: presentation improved, results unchanged, references adde
